2019-08-02 SimplifyEelco Dolstra1-18/+14
With BSD locks we don't have to guard against reading our own temproots.
2019-08-02 Use BSD instead of POSIX file locksEelco Dolstra5-108/+46
POSIX file locks are essentially incompatible with multithreading. BSD locks have much saner semantics. We need this now that there can be multiple concurrent LocalStore::buildPaths() invocations.
2019-08-02 Add a test for auto-GCEelco Dolstra4-3/+72
This currently fails because we're using POSIX file locks. So when the garbage collector opens and closes its own temproots file, it causes the lock to be released and then deleted by another GC instance.

2019-07-10 Resume NAR downloadsEelco Dolstra1-7/+28
This is a much simpler fix to the 'error 9 while decompressing xz file' problem than 78fa47a7f08a4cb6ee7061bf0bd86a40e1d6dc91. We just do a ranged HTTP request starting after the data that we previously wrote into the sink. Fixes #2952, #379.

2019-07-10 nix copy: Rename --substitute to --substitute-on-destinationEelco Dolstra1-1/+1
'--substitute' was being shadowed by the regular '--substitute' (the short-hand for '--option substitute true'). Fixes #2983.

2019-07-03 autoconf: Implement release tarball detection. Fixes #257.Niklas Hambüchen1-7/+20
This should finally allow us to address all cases of build errors due to differences between release tarballs and building from git. See also https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/506#issuecomment-507312587
2019-07-03 autoconf: Add comment on use of `false`.Niklas Hambüchen1-3/+9

2019-07-03 Get BOOST_LDFLAGS from autoconf, fix Ubuntu 16.04 build.Niklas Hambüchen4-2/+6
Our use of boost::coroutine2 depends on -lboost_context, which in turn depends on `-lboost_thread`, which in turn depends on `-lboost_system`. I suspect that this builds on nix only because of low-level hacks like NIX_LDFLAGS. This commit passes the proper linker flags, thus fixing bootstrap builds on non-nix distributions like Ubuntu 16.04. With these changes, I can build Nix on Ubuntu 16.04 using: ./bootstrap.sh ./configure --prefix=$HOME/editline-prefix \ --disable-doc-gen \ CXX=g++-7 \ --with-boost=$HOME/boost-prefix \ EDITLINE_CFLAGS=-I$HOME/editline-prefix/include \ EDITLINE_LIBS=-leditline \ LDFLAGS=-L$HOME/editline-prefix/lib make where * g++-7 comes from gcc-7 from https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-toolchain-r/+archive/ubuntu/test, * editline 1.14 from https://github.com/troglobit/editline/releases/tag/1.14.0 was installed into `$HOME/editline-prefix` (because Ubuntu 16.04's `editline` is too old to have the function nix uses), * boost 1.66 from https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_66_0/more/getting_started/unix-variants.html was installed into $HOME/boost-prefix (because Ubuntu 16.04 only has 1.58)
2019-07-03 Fix C++ compatibility with older editline versions.Niklas Hambüchen1-0/+7
For example, Ubuntu 16.04 and many similar long-term-support distros have older versions.
2019-07-03 Makefile.config.in: Remove HAVE_READLINE.Niklas Hambüchen1-1/+0
It was forgotten to be removed with commit c5f23f10a84f568874321c04984b1a14d2dce978 and so it until now stayed unsubstituted as `HAVE_READLINE = @HAVE_READLINE@` in Makefile.config.
2019-07-03 autoconf: Allow overriding CFLAGS/CXXFLAGS from outside.Niklas Hambüchen4-18/+8
As is normal for autoconf-based projects. For example, it is a common use case to do ./configure CXXFLAGS=-O0 This did not work for nix until now, because the `CXXFLAGS=` declaration would unconditionally erase what the user had specified. The custom `OPTIMIZE` flag is removed, but the default `-O3` is retained; autoconf would default to `-g -O2` by default otherwise as documented on: https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.60/html_node/C-Compiler.html https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.60/html_node/C_002b_002b-Compiler.html
2019-07-03 autoconf: Fix AC_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE being used before AC_PROG_CC.Niklas Hambüchen1-8/+8
That was incorrect, because checking the dirent type already requires a working compiler. It had the effect that setting e.g. `: ${CFLAGS=""}` before `AC_PROG_CC` as per `AC_PROG_CC`'s documentation would have no effect, because `AC_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_TYPE` would automatically set CFLASGS. (In a followup commit `: ${CFLAGS=""}` will be used, so it's important to get this working first.)
2019-07-03 mk: add support for passing LDFLAGS to libs and binsSergei Trofimovich3-4/+5
autotools-based systems usually allow user to append own LDFLAGS like LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,--hash-style=gnu" at ./configure stage This change plumbs LDFLAGS through similar to existing CXXFLAGS variable. Signed-off-by: Sergei Trofimovich <siarheit@google.com>
2019-07-03 autoconf: Fix C++17 detection not working on Ubuntu 16.04.Niklas Hambüchen4-2/+989
And probably many other distributions. Until now, ./configure would fail silently printing a warning ./configure: line 4621: AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_17: command not found and then continuing, later failing with a C++ #error saying that some C++11 feature isn't supported (it didn't even get to the C++17 features). This is because older distributions don't come with the `AX_CXX_COMPILE_STDCXX_17` m4 macro. This commit vendors that macro accordingly. Now ./configure complains correctly: configure: error: *** A compiler with support for C++17 language features is required. On Ubuntu 16.04, ./configure completes if a newer compiler is used, e.g. with gcc-7 from https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-toolchain-r/+archive/ubuntu/test using: ./bootstrap.sh ./configure CXX=g++-7 --disable-doc-gen --with-boost=$(nix-build --no-link '<nixpkgs>' -A boost.dev)
2019-07-03 autoconf: Work around editline not being found on Ubuntu 16.04.Niklas Hambüchen2-1/+14
And probably other Linux distributions with long-term support releases. Also update manual stating what version is needed; I checked that 1.14 is the oldest version with which current nix compiles, and added autoconf feature checks for some functions added in that release that nix uses.
2019-07-03 autoconf: Detect boost, require version, set CXXFLAGS.Niklas Hambüchen1-0/+7
This turns previous compiler errors complaining about missing files into proper ./configure time errors telling the user which version of boost is required.
2019-07-03 autoconf: Change quotes in description.Niklas Hambüchen1-1/+1
The unbalanced single-quotes cause many editor syntax highlighters to interpret the rest of the file as a string literal, making it easier to make syntax mistakes in absence of proper highlighting.
