Age	Commit message (Collapse)	Author	Files	Lines
2011-12-21	* The ‘foo.drvPath’ feature was already broken in read-only mode.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+2
	Since it's rarely used and fixing it is too much work right now, just document it.
2011-12-21	Revert previous commit	Shea Levy	1	-9/+0
	It doesn't detect indirect references
2011-12-21	Detect and reject mutually-referential outputs	Shea Levy	1	-0/+9
	There is probably a more efficient way to do this.
2011-12-21	* Simplify the context handling logic.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-24/+13

2011-12-20	* Fix the build.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-2/+2

2011-12-16	* Sync with the trunk.	Eelco Dolstra	26	-275/+461

2011-12-16	* importPath() -> importPaths(). Because of buffering of the input	Eelco Dolstra	10	-57/+75
	stream it's now necessary for the daemon to process the entire sequence of exported paths, rather than letting the client do it.
2011-12-16	* Avoid expensive conversions from char arrays to STL strings.	Eelco Dolstra	3	-13/+25

2011-12-16	* Make the import operation through the daemon much more efficient	Eelco Dolstra	6	-44/+68
	(way fewer roundtrips) by allowing the client to send data in bigger chunks. * Some refactoring.
2011-12-16	* Clean up exception handling.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-3/+10

2011-12-15	* Refactoring: move sink/source buffering into separate classes.	Eelco Dolstra	8	-90/+125
	* Buffer the HashSink. This speeds up hashing a bit because it prevents lots of calls to the hash update functions (e.g. nix-hash went from 9.3s to 8.7s of user time on the closure of my /var/run/current-system).
2011-12-15	* Buffer reads in FdSource. Together with write buffering, this	Eelco Dolstra	2	-10/+32
	significantly cuts down the number of syscalls (e.g., for "nix-store -qR /var/run/current-system" via the daemon, it reduced the number of syscalls in the client from 29134 to 4766 and in the daemon from 44266 to 20666).
2011-12-14	* Buffer writes in FdSink. This significantly reduces the number of	Eelco Dolstra	4	-14/+50
	system calls / context switches when dumping a NAR and in the worker protocol.
2011-12-14	* Remove the terminate handler, which was only really needed because	Eelco Dolstra	1	-23/+0
	of Berkeley DB (see r8632).
2011-12-05	* Remove unnecessary quotes. showPaths() already adds quotes.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+1

2011-12-02	* In ‘nix-store --verify --check-contents’, repair missing hashes	Eelco Dolstra	1	-4/+20
	rather than complain about them.
2011-12-02	* Move parseHash16or32 into libutil, and use in nix-hash.	Eelco Dolstra	5	-22/+23

2011-12-01	* Allow '<nixexpr>' syntax to be used in nix-instantiate, nix-build	Eelco Dolstra	4	-3/+15
	and nix-env, e.g., $ nix-env -f '<nixpkgs>' -i patchelf or $ nix-build '<nixos/tests>' -A login.test
2011-12-01	* Slight improvement.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-3/+2

2011-12-01	* When doing "nix-store --add-fixed" without "--recursive" via the Nix	Eelco Dolstra	3	-6/+16
	daemon (which is an error), print a nicer error message than "Connection reset by peer" or "broken pipe". * In the daemon, log errors that occur during request parameter processing.
2011-11-29	* Get rid of some superfluous error messages if a substituter fails.	Eelco Dolstra	2	-16/+7
	* Say "fetch" instead of "substitute".
2011-11-23	* Add an API function exportPaths() that provides the functionality of	Eelco Dolstra	4	-6/+19
	‘nix-store --export’. * Add a Perl module that provides the functionality of ‘nix-copy-closure --to’. This is used by build-remote.pl so it no longer needs to start a separate nix-copy-closure process. Also, it uses the Perl API to do the export, so it doesn't need to start a separate nix-store process either. As a result, nix-copy-closure and build-remote.pl should no longer fail on very large closures due to an "Argument list too long" error. (Note that having very many dependencies in a single derivation can still fail because the environment can become too large. Can't be helped though.)
2011-11-22	* Move initialisation of variables like nixConfDir from libmain to	Eelco Dolstra	5	-33/+45
	libstore so that the Perl bindings can use it as well. It's vital that the Perl bindings use the configuration file, because otherwise nix-copy-closure will fail with a ‘database locked’ message if the value of ‘use-sqlite-wal’ is changed from the default.
2011-11-21	nix: add /etc/hosts with localhost entry to chroot builds.	Rob Vermaas	1	-0/+3

2011-11-07	* Boldly make SQLite WAL mode the default again. Hopefully the	Eelco Dolstra	1	-4/+3
	intermittent problems are gone by now. WAL mode is preferrable because it does way fewer fsyncs.
2011-11-06	There's no need to mess with drvPath at all	Shea Levy	1	-6/+4

2011-11-06	Fix faulty reversion of my changes to unsafeDiscardOutputDependency	Shea Levy	1	-1/+1

2011-11-06	Respect all outputs passed to the derivation, not just the last one	Shea Levy	1	-1/+3

2011-11-06	Remove the unused sCurrentOutput symbol	Shea Levy	2	-2/+1

2011-11-06	Embed output name into the context of the *OutPath attributes and extract it ↵	Shea Levy	1	-2/+9
	for input derivations Multiple outputs test passes!
2011-11-06	Include all outputs of derivations in the closure of explicitly-passed ↵	Shea Levy	8	-2/+58
	derivation paths This required adding a queryOutputDerivationNames function in the store API
2011-11-06	The 'insert output between = signs' approach was not helpful	Shea Levy	1	-9/+2

2011-11-06	Merge from trunk	Shea Levy	4	-8/+12

2011-10-27	* In printValueAsXML, handle the case where a "type" attribute is not	Eelco Dolstra	1	-3/+6
	a string. This happens in the NixOS option system. * Remove a bogus comparison of a unsigned integer with -1.
2011-09-16	Remove the current output metadata from the string for ↵	Shea Levy	1	-1/+8
	unsaveDiscardOutputDependency
2011-09-16	Add information about which output is active to drvPath's context	Shea Levy	1	-4/+6
	This will break things that depend on being able to just strip away an equals sign, so those have to be updated next
2011-09-16	Add an sCurrentOutput member to EvalState	Shea Levy	2	-1/+2

2011-09-16	Add a currentOutput attribute to derivations keep track of which output is ↵	Shea Levy	1	-1/+4
	active
2011-09-14	First attempt at the output-as-derivation semantics	Shea Levy	1	-9/+27
	For each output, this adds a corresponding attribute to the derivation that is the same as the derivation except for outPath, which is set to the path specific to that output. Additionally, an "all" attribute is added that is a list of all of the output derivations. This has to be done outside of derivationStrict as each output is itself a derivation that contains itself (and all other outputs) as an attribute. The derivation itself is equivalent to the first output in the outputs list (or "out" if that list isn't set).
2011-09-12	* Ouch. A store upgrade could cause a substituter to be triggered,	Eelco Dolstra	3	-5/+6
	causing a deadlock.
2011-09-06	* Added a command ‘nix-store --verify-paths PATHS’ to check whether	Eelco Dolstra	4	-7/+35
	the contents of any of the given store paths have been modified. E.g. $ nix-store --verify-path $(nix-store -qR /var/run/current-system) path `/nix/store/m2smyiwbxidlprfxfz4rjlvz2c3mg58y-etc' was modified! expected hash `fc87e271c5fdf179b47939b08ad13440493805584b35e3014109d04d8436e7b8', got `20f1a47281b3c0cbe299ce47ad5ca7340b20ab34246426915fce0ee9116483aa' All paths are checked; the exit code is 1 if any path has been modified, 0 otherwise.
2011-08-31	* Eliminate all uses of the global variable ‘store’ from libstore.	Eelco Dolstra	15	-89/+95
	This should also fix: nix-instantiate: ./../boost/shared_ptr.hpp:254: T* boost::shared_ptr<T>::operator->() const [with T = nix::StoreAPI]: Assertion `px != 0' failed. which was caused by hashDerivationModulo() calling the ‘store’ object (during store upgrades) before openStore() assigned it.
2011-08-06	* Cache the result of file evaluation (i.e, memoize evalFile()). This	Eelco Dolstra	2	-11/+22
	prevents files from being evaluated and stored as values multiple times. For instance, evaluation of the ‘system’ attribute in NixOS causes ‘nixpkgs/pkgs/lib/lists.nix’ to be evaluated 2019 times. Caching gives a modest speedup and a decent memory footprint reduction (e.g., from 1.44s to 1.28s, and from 81 MiB to 59 MiB with GC_INITIAL_HEAP_SIZE=100000 on my system).
2011-08-06	* Handle the case where the search path element is a regular file.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+2

2011-08-06	* Remove a debug statement.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-1/+0

2011-08-06	* Add the Nix corepkgs to the end of the search path. This makes it	Eelco Dolstra	1	-0/+2
	possible for other Nix expressions to use corepkgs (mostly useful for the buildenv function).
2011-08-06	* Allow redirections in search path entries. E.g. if you have a	Eelco Dolstra	2	-6/+25
	directory /home/eelco/src/stdenv-updates that you want to use as the directory for import such as with (import <nixpkgs> { }); then you can say $ nix-build -I nixpkgs=/home/eelco/src/stdenv-updates
2011-08-06	* Add a Nix expression search path feature. Paths between angle	Eelco Dolstra	8	-6/+76
	brackets, e.g. import <nixpkgs/pkgs/lib> are resolved by looking them up relative to the elements listed in the search path. This allows us to get rid of hacks like import "${builtins.getEnv "NIXPKGS_ALL"}/pkgs/lib" The search path can be specified through the ‘-I’ command-line flag and through the colon-separated ‘NIX_PATH’ environment variable, e.g., $ nix-build -I /etc/nixos ... If a file is not found in the search path, an error message is lazily thrown.
2011-08-06	* Refactoring: move parseExprFromFile() and parseExprFromString() into	Eelco Dolstra	10	-52/+37
	the EvalState class.
2011-07-20	* Don't allow derivations with fixed and non-fixed outputs.	Eelco Dolstra	1	-43/+38
