Allow global config settings to be defined in multiple Config
classes. For example, this means that libutil can have settings and
evaluator settings can be moved out of libstore. The Config classes
are registered in a new GlobalConfig class to which config files
etc. are applied.
Relevant to https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/2009 in that it
removes the need for ad hoc handling of useCaseHack, which was the
underlying cause of that issue.

From exec(3):

Previously, this would fail at startup for non-NixOS installs:
nix-env --help
The fix for this is to just use "nixManDir" as the value for MANPATH
when spawning "man".
To test this, I’m using the following:
$ nix-build release.nix -A build
$ MANPATH= ./result/bin/nix-env --help
Fixes #1627

Also, random cleanup to argument handling.
|

This is superfluous since you can now just set "builders" to empty,
e.g. "--builders ''".
|
|
|
|
In particular, drop the "build-" and "gc-" prefixes which are
pointless. So now you can say
nix build --no-sandbox
instead of
nix build --no-build-use-sandbox

Note that this removes the need for a derivation symlink, so the
--drv-path and --add-drv-link flags now do nothing.

This broke "nix-store --serve".

this fixes a linker failure on cygwin 64 due to some bad
interaction between tls and shared libraries.

This makes all config options self-documenting.
Unknown or unparseable config settings and --option flags now cause a
warning.

They convey no useful information.

"build-max-jobs" and the "-j" option can now be set to "auto" to use
the number of CPUs in the system. (Unlike build-cores, it doesn't use
0 to imply auto-configuration, because a) magic values are a bad idea
in general; b) 0 is a legitimate value used to disable local
building.)
Fixes #1198.

Also get rid of Settings::processEnvironment(), it appears to be
useless.

Because config.h can #define things like _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 and not
every compilation unit includes config.h, we currently compile half of
Nix with _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 and other half with _FILE_OFFSET_BITS
unset. This causes major havoc with the Settings class on e.g. 32-bit ARM,
where different compilation units disagree with the struct layout.

In particular, this fixes Ctrl-C in nix-shell sessions.

This closes a long-time bug that allowed builds to hang Nix
indefinitely (regardless of timeouts) simply by doing
exec > /dev/null 2>&1; while true; do true; done
Now, on EOF, we just send SIGKILL to the child to make sure it's
really gone.

This allows other threads to install callbacks that run in a regular,
non-signal context. In particular, we can use this to signal the
downloader thread to quit.
Closes #1183.

This reverts commit f78126bfd6b6c8477fcdbc09b2f98772dbe9a1e7. There
really is no need for such a massive change...

This variable has no reason to exist, given $NIX_STATE_DIR.

If --no-build-output is given (which will become the default for the
"nix" command at least), show the last 10 lines of the build output if
the build fails.

This was added to support Hydra, but Hydra no longer uses it.
|
|
This also gets rid of --log-type, since the nested log type isn't
useful in a multi-threaded situation, and nobody cares about the
"pretty" log type.
|
|
The flag remembering whether an Interrupted exception was thrown is
now thread-local. Thus, all threads will (eventually) throw
Interrupted. Previously, one thread would throw Interrupted, and then
the other threads wouldn't see that they were supposed to quit.

Otherwise writing to std::cerr is not thread-safe (in particular,
lines will be randomly duplicated).

OpenSSL can randomly segfault unless we register a callback function
to do locking.

Calling a class an API is a bit redundant...
|
|
Also, move a few free-standing functions into StoreAPI and Derivation.
Also, introduce a non-nullable smart pointer, ref<T>, which is just a
wrapper around std::shared_ptr ensuring that the pointer is never
null. (For reference-counted values, this is better than passing a
"T&", because the latter doesn't maintain the refcount. Usually, the
caller will have a shared_ptr keeping the value alive, but that's not
always the case, e.g., when passing a reference to a std::thread via
std::bind.)

Such as whether Nix is built with signed binary cache support, and the
location of the configuration file.

This is mostly useful for hydra-queue-runner.
