2011-02-09 * Sync with the trunk.Eelco Dolstra1-2/+0
2011-02-05 * Clang compatibility fix. Clang actually checks template definitionsEelco Dolstra1-1/+1
when they are defined
2011-01-14 Remove useless <config.h> inclusion from public header.Ludovic Courtès1-2/+0
2011-01-14 * builtins.substring: if "start" is beyond the end of the string,Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
return the empty string.
2010-12-17 * Do a short sleep after SQLITE_BUSY.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+11
2010-12-17 * Propagate the "100" exit status for failed builds through the NixEelco Dolstra3-5/+9
daemon.
2010-12-14 * I forgot to catch SQLiteBusy in registerValidPaths(). SoEelco Dolstra1-38/+31
registerValidPaths() now handles busy errors and registerValidPath() is simply a wrapper around it.
2010-12-13 * nix-instantiate: return exit status 100 to denote a permanent buildEelco Dolstra4-7/+22
failure. The build hook can use this to distinguish between transient and permanent failures on the remote side.
2010-12-13 * Create /nix/var/nix/db if it's missing.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+1
2010-12-13 * createDirs(path): if path already exists, make sure it's aEelco Dolstra2-20/+26
directory. * Provide a C++ wrapper around lstat().
2010-12-13 * Update some comments.Eelco Dolstra2-4/+3
2010-12-08 * Ignore the result of sqlite3_reset().Eelco Dolstra1-3/+4
2010-12-06 * `nix-store --verify --check-contents': don't hold the global GC lockEelco Dolstra2-11/+49
while checking the contents, since this operation can take a very long time to finish. Also, fill in missing narSize fields in the DB while doing this.
2010-12-05 * Retry a transaction if SQLite returns SQLITE_BUSY. This can happenEelco Dolstra1-61/+83
even with a very long busy timeout, because SQLITE_BUSY is also returned to resolve deadlocks. This should get rid of random "database is locked" errors. This is kind of hard to test though. * Fix a horrible bug in deleteFromStore(): deletePathWrapped() should be called after committing the transaction, not before, because the commit might not succeed.
2010-11-29 * Quick hack around one of the pathological cases in bsdiffEelco Dolstra1-0/+1
(namely, when there is a long region of 0s). On one 86 MiB case, this cut patch generation time from 44m to 2m.
2010-11-25 * Sync with the trunk.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+4
2010-11-25 * DrvInfo contains pointers to expressions, so DrvInfos should beEelco Dolstra1-0/+4
traced by the garbage collector. Otherwise "nix-env -u" can crash randomly.
2010-11-17 * Before a build, show the disk space that the downloaded store pathsEelco Dolstra8-12/+18
will approximately require.
2010-11-17 * Add an operation `nix-store -q --size'.Eelco Dolstra4-7/+24
2010-11-17 * Implement RemoteStore::queryPathInfo().Eelco Dolstra3-1/+27
2010-11-16 * Store the size of a store path in the database (to be precise, theEelco Dolstra15-90/+143
size of the NAR serialisation of the path, i.e., `nix-store --dump PATH'). This is useful for Hydra.
2010-11-16 * Sync with the trunk.Eelco Dolstra25-437/+643
2010-10-29 * Document Boehm GC support.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2010-10-29 * Set libgc's initial heap size to 384 MiB to prevent garbageEelco Dolstra1-0/+12
collection in most cases (and therefore its performance overhead).
2010-10-28 * new(UseGC) is inexplicably slower than GC_MALLOC, so prefer theEelco Dolstra1-4/+4
latter.
2010-10-28 * Handle out of memory condition.Eelco Dolstra5-10/+28
2010-10-24 * When allocating an attribute set, reserve enough space for allEelco Dolstra4-28/+21
elements. This prevents the vector from having to resize itself.
2010-10-24 * Keep attribute sets in sorted order to speed up attribute lookups.Eelco Dolstra11-146/+184
* Simplify the representation of attributes in the AST. * Change the behaviour of listToAttrs() in case of duplicate names.
2010-10-24 * Don't create thunks for variable lookups (if possible). ThisEelco Dolstra3-23/+60
significantly reduces the number of values allocated (e.g. from 8.7m to 4.9m for the Bittorrent test).
2010-10-24 * Store attribute sets as a vector instead of a map (i.e. a red-blackEelco Dolstra7-90/+129
tree). This saves a lot of memory. The vector should be sorted so that names can be looked up using binary search, but this is not the case yet. (Surprisingly, looking up attributes using linear search doesn't have a big impact on performance.) Memory consumption for $ nix-instantiate /etc/nixos/nixos/tests -A bittorrent.test --readonly-mode on x86_64-linux with GC enabled is now 185 MiB (compared to 946 MiB on the trunk).
2010-10-23 * Fix compiling without Boehm.Eelco Dolstra1-10/+8
* Fix the stats.
2010-10-23 * Optimise string constants by putting them in the symbol table.Eelco Dolstra4-39/+55
2010-10-23 * Make Value smaller by not storing redundant PrimOp info.Eelco Dolstra2-25/+44
* Clear pointers in Values after overwriting them to make sure that no objects are kept alive unnecessarily.
2010-10-23 * Remove allocValues().Eelco Dolstra4-36/+14
2010-10-22 * In environments, store pointers to values rather than values. ThisEelco Dolstra2-35/+25
improves GC effectiveness a bit more (because a live value doesn't keep other values in the environment plus the parent environments alive), and removes the need for copy nodes.
2010-10-22 * Store Value nodes outside of attribute sets. I.e., Attr now storesEelco Dolstra15-130/+150
a pointer to a Value, rather than the Value directly. This improves the effectiveness of garbage collection a lot: if the Value is stored inside the set directly, then any live pointer to the Value causes all other attributes in the set to be live as well.
2010-10-22 * Make building against the Boehm GC a configure option.Eelco Dolstra5-14/+29
2010-10-20 * Keep some more stats.Eelco Dolstra2-0/+12
2010-10-20 * Use the Boehm garbage collector to reclaim unused memory in the NixEelco Dolstra5-15/+29
expression evaluator.
2010-10-14 * Wrap deleteFromStore() in a transaction. Otherwise there might be aEelco Dolstra2-8/+13
race with other processes that add new referrers to a path, resulting in the garbage collector crashing with "foreign key constraint failed". (Nix/4) * Make --gc --print-dead etc. interruptible.
2010-10-04 * Make sure that config.h is included before the system headers,Eelco Dolstra12-29/+29
because it defines _FILE_OFFSET_BITS. Without this, on OpenSolaris the system headers define it to be 32, and then the 32-bit stat() ends up being called with a 64-bit "struct stat", or vice versa. This also ensures that we get 64-bit file sizes everywhere. * Remove the redundant call to stat() in parseExprFromFile(). The file cannot be a symlink because that's the exit condition of the loop before.
2010-10-04 * If std::tr1::unordered_set is unavailable, use std::set.Eelco Dolstra1-0/+9
2010-10-04 * Sync with the trunk.Eelco Dolstra4-4/+12
2010-10-04 * In printMsg(), ignore failing writes to stderr if we're in anEelco Dolstra1-1/+10
exception handler, otherwise throw an exception. We need to ignore write errors in exception handlers to ensure that cleanup code runs to completion if the other side of stderr has been closed unexpectedly.
2010-10-04 * Hack needed for GCC 4.3.2 on OpenSolaris.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2010-09-14 * Doh. Remove debug message.Eelco Dolstra1-1/+0
2010-09-01 * Only do "pragma journal_mode = ..." if the current journal modeEelco Dolstra1-1/+10
differs from the desired mode. There is an open SQLite ticket `Executing "PRAGMA journal_mode" may delete journal file while it is in use.'
2010-08-31 * Always print hook output on stderr, even if --no-build-output isEelco Dolstra1-4/+12
set. * In the build hook, print a trace message to allow Hydra to pick up the name of the remote machine used for the build.
2010-08-31 `nix-store --verify' improvements:Eelco Dolstra3-20/+62
* If a path has disappeared, check its referrers first, and don't try to invalidate paths that have valid referrers. Otherwise we get a foreign key constraint violation. * Read the whole Nix store directory instead of statting each valid path, which is slower. * Acquire the global GC lock.
2010-08-30 * When using the build hook, distinguish between the stderr of theEelco Dolstra6-26/+39
hook script proper, and the stdout/stderr of the builder. Only the latter should be saved in /nix/var/log/nix/drvs. * Allow the verbosity to be set through an option. * Added a flag --quiet to lower the verbosity level.
