2006-12-08 | * Kill a build if it has gone for more than a certain number of | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+5 | |
seconds without producing output on stdout or stderr (NIX-65). This timeout can be specified using the `--max-silent-time' option or the `build-max-silent-time' configuration setting. The default is infinity (0). * Fix a tricky race condition: if we kill the build user before the child has done its setuid() to the build user uid, then it won't be killed, and we'll potentially lock up in pid.wait(). So also send a conventional kill to the child. | |||||
2006-11-30 | * Troubleshooting information on fixing a b0rked Berkeley DB database. | Eelco Dolstra | 3 | -13/+45 | |
2006-11-14 | * Push. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+2 | |
2006-11-13 | * Magic attribute `exportReferencesGraph' that allows the references | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -1/+5 | |
graph to be passed to a builder. This attribute should be a list of pairs [name1 path1 name2 path2 ...]. The references graph of each `pathN' will be stored in a text file `nameN' in the temporary build directory. The text files have the format used by `nix-store --register-validity'. However, the deriver fields are left empty. `exportReferencesGraph' is useful for builders that want to do something with the closure of a store path. Examples: the builders that make initrds and ISO images for NixOS. `exportReferencesGraph' is entirely pure. It's necessary because otherwise the only way for a builder to get this information would be to call `nix-store' directly, which is not allowed (though unfortunately possible). | |||||
2006-11-13 | * Option `--reregister' in `nix-store --register-validity'. We need | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+4 | |
this in the NixOS installer (or in the buildfarm) to ensure that the cryptographic hash of the path contents still matches the actual contents. | |||||
2006-10-30 | * Release notes. | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+14 | |
2006-10-28 | * `nix-store --read-log / -l PATH' shows the build log of PATH, if | Eelco Dolstra | 1 | -0/+17 | |
available. For instance, $ nix-store -l $(which svn) | less lets you read the build log of the Subversion instance in your profile. * `nix-store -qb': if applied to a non-derivation, take the deriver. | |||||
