This is because we don't want to do HTTP requests on every evaluation,
even though we can prevent a full redownload via the cached ETag. The
default is one hour.
|
|
ETags are used to prevent redownloading unchanged files.

This function downloads and unpacks the given URL at evaluation
time. This is primarily intended to make it easier to deal with Nix
expressions that have external dependencies. For instance, to fetch
Nixpkgs 14.12:
with import (fetchTarball https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels/archive/nixos-14.12.tar.gz) {};
Or to fetch a specific revision:
with import (fetchTarball https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/2766a4b44ee6eafae03a042801270c7f6b8ed32a.tar.gz) {};
This patch also adds a ‘fetchurl’ builtin that downloads but doesn't
unpack its argument. Not sure if it's useful though.

This doesn't work anymore if the "strict" chroot mode is
enabled. Instead, add Nix's store path as a dependency. This ensures
that its closure is present in the chroot.
|
|
This may remove the "Repeated allocation of very large block"
warnings.
|
|
We were calling GC_INIT() after doing an allocation (in the baseEnv
construction), which is not allowed.

If ‘--option restrict-eval true’ is given, the evaluator will throw an
exception if an attempt is made to access any file outside of the Nix
search path. This is primarily intended for Hydra, where we don't want
people doing ‘builtins.readFile ~/.ssh/id_dsa’ or stuff like that.

The DT_UNKNOWN fallback code was getting the type of the wrong path,
causing readDir to report "directory" as the type of every file.

Code that links to libnixexpr (e.g. plugins loaded with importNative, or
nix-exec) may want to provide custom value types and operations on
values of those types. For example, nix-exec is currently using sets
where a custom IO value type would be more appropriate. This commit
provides a generic hook for such types in the form of tExternal and the
ExternalBase virtual class, which contains all functions necessary for
libnixexpr's type-polymorphic functions (e.g. `showType`) to be
implemented.

The function ‘builtins.match’ takes a POSIX extended regular
expression and an arbitrary string. It returns ‘null’ if the string
does not match the regular expression. Otherwise, it returns a list
containing substring matches corresponding to parenthesis groups in
the regex. The regex must match the entire string (i.e. there is an
implied "^<pat>$" around the regex). For example:
match "foo" "foobar" => null
match "foo" "foo" => []
match "f(o+)(.*)" "foooobar" => ["oooo" "bar"]
match "(.*/)?([^/]*)" "/dir/file.nix" => ["/dir/" "file.nix"]
match "(.*/)?([^/]*)" "file.nix" => [null "file.nix"]
The following example finds all regular files with extension .nix or
.patch underneath the current directory:
let
findFiles = pat: dir: concatLists (mapAttrsToList (name: type:
if type == "directory" then
findFiles pat (dir + "/" + name)
else if type == "regular" && match pat name != null then
[(dir + "/" + name)]
else []) (readDir dir));
in findFiles ".*\\.(nix|patch)" (toString ./.)

Before this there was a bug where a `find` was being called on a
not-yet-sorted set. The code was just a mess before anyway, so I cleaned
it up while fixing it.

Avoids an assertion

With this, attribute sets with a `__functor` attribute can be applied
just like normal functions. This can be used to attach arbitrary
metadata to a function without callers needing to treat it specially.

Clearing v.app.right was not enough, because the length field of a
list only takes 32 bits, so the most significant 32 bits of v.app.left
(a.k.a. v.thunk.env) would remain. This could cause Boehm GC to
interpret it as a valid pointer.
This change reduces maximum RSS for evaluating the ‘tested’ job in
nixos/release-small.nix from 1.33 GiB to 0.80 GiB, and runtime by
about 8%.

This gives a ~18% speedup in NixOS evaluation (after converting
most calls to hasAttr/getAttr to dynamic attrs).
