2014-09-01 Add an 'optimiseStore' remote procedure call.Ludovic Courtès8-20/+42
2014-08-28 Add disallowedReferences / disallowedRequisitesEelco Dolstra1-26/+29
For the "stdenv accidentally referring to bootstrap-tools", it seems easier to specify the path that we don't want to depend on, e.g. disallowedRequisites = [ bootstrapTools ];
2014-08-28 Introduce allowedRequisites featureGergely Risko1-1/+18
2014-08-21 fix disappearing bash argumentsJoel Taylor1-2/+7
2014-08-21 Use PR_SET_PDEATHSIG to ensure child cleanupEelco Dolstra3-3/+13
2014-08-21 Use unshare() instead of clone()Eelco Dolstra1-55/+35
It turns out that using clone() to start a child process is unsafe in a multithreaded program. It can cause the initialisation of a build child process to hang in setgroups(), as seen several times in the build farm: The reason is that Glibc thinks that the other threads of the parent exist in the child, so in setxid_mark_thread() it tries to get a futex that has been acquired by another thread just before the clone(). With fork(), Glibc runs pthread_atfork() handlers that take care of this (in particular, __reclaim_stacks()). But clone() doesn't do that. Fortunately, we can use fork()+unshare() instead of clone() to set up private namespaces. See also https://www.mail-archive.com/lxc-devel@lists.linuxcontainers.org/msg03434.html.
2014-08-21 Fix a segfault in ‘nix-env -qa’Eelco Dolstra1-1/+1
This was triggered by 47e185847e729d49e6aa376e8299fd66ef834a0a, which turned globals.state into a pointer.
2014-08-20 Flush std::cout before closing stdoutEelco Dolstra1-0/+1
2014-08-20 Use pager for more commandsEelco Dolstra2-1/+8
2014-08-20 Provide reasonable default flags for $LESSEelco Dolstra1-1/+2
Borrowed from systemd.
2014-08-20 Use proper quotes everywhereEelco Dolstra35-439/+439
2014-08-20 Add some colorEelco Dolstra6-52/+56
2014-08-20 nix-store -l: Automatically pipe output into $PAGEREelco Dolstra4-2/+56
2014-08-20 Filter Nix-specific ANSI escape sequences from stderrEelco Dolstra1-1/+37
The Nixpkgs stdenv prints some custom escape sequences to denote nesting and stuff like that. Most terminals (e.g. xterm, konsole) ignore them, but some do not (e.g. xfce4-terminal). So for the benefit of the latter, filter them out.
2014-08-19 Make hook shutdown more reliableEelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2014-08-18 Fix --attr parsingEelco Dolstra1-1/+3

2014-08-17 Fix download-via-sshEelco Dolstra1-2/+4
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/13286020
2014-08-13 nix-log2xml: Handle newlinesEelco Dolstra1-0/+1
2014-08-13 Remove log2html.xsl and friendsEelco Dolstra4-160/+0
It's part of Hydra now.
2014-08-13 nix-log2xml: Handle UTF-8 charactersEelco Dolstra1-1/+1
C++ chars can be negative...
2014-08-13 Use regular file GC roots if possibleEelco Dolstra1-1/+4
This makes hydra-eval-jobs create roots as regular files. See 1c208f2b7ef8ffb5e6d435d703dad83223a67bd6.
2014-08-13 Handle compound single dash options properlyEelco Dolstra1-15/+14
So now nix-instantiate --eval -E '{x}: x' --argstr x -xyzzy correctly prints "-xyzzy", rather than giving an error. Issue NixOS/hydra#176.
2014-08-13 Refactor option handlingEelco Dolstra10-537/+509
2014-08-13 Fix warning about non-existant -I directoriesEelco Dolstra1-1/+1
2014-08-13 Remove pointless NIX_LOG_TYPE environment variableEelco Dolstra1-4/+0
2014-08-05 Remove unnecessary call to addTempRoot()Eelco Dolstra1-1/+0
2014-08-05 DohEelco Dolstra2-11/+2
2014-08-04 Move some options out of globalsEelco Dolstra4-6/+15
2014-08-04 RefactorEelco Dolstra3-43/+43
2014-08-04 Add option ‘build-extra-chroot-dirs’Eelco Dolstra4-13/+9
This is useful for extending (rather than overriding) the default set of chroot paths.
2014-08-04 Get rid of "killing <pid>" message for unused build hooksEelco Dolstra3-4/+5
2014-08-04 Make chroot builds easier to set upEelco Dolstra1-0/+3
By default, we now include /bin/sh as a bind-mount of bash.
2014-08-01 Remove ugly hack for detecting build environment setup errorsEelco Dolstra1-13/+10
2014-08-01 Call commonChildInit() before doing chroot initEelco Dolstra2-12/+16
This ensures that daemon clients see error messages from the chroot setup.
2014-08-01 Eliminate redundant copyEelco Dolstra2-1/+3
2014-08-01 findRoots(): Prevent a call to lstat()Eelco Dolstra1-9/+14
This means that getting the roots from /nix/var/nix/.../hydra-roots doesn't need any I/O other than reading the directory.
2014-08-01 Make readDirectory() return inode / file typeEelco Dolstra7-46/+48
2014-08-01 Allow regular files as GC rootsEelco Dolstra1-0/+6
If a root is a regular file, then its name must denote a store path. For instance, the existence of the file /nix/var/nix/gcroots/per-user/eelco/hydra-roots/wzc3cy1wwwd6d0dgxpa77ijr1yp50s6v-libxml2-2.7.7 would cause /nix/store/wzc3cy1wwwd6d0dgxpa77ijr1yp50s6v-libxml2-2.7.7 to be a root. This is useful because it involves less I/O (no need for a readlink() call) and takes up less disk space (the symlink target typically takes up a full disk block, while directory entries are packed more efficiently). This is particularly important for hydra.nixos.org, which has hundreds of thousands of roots, and where reading the roots can take 25 minutes.
2014-07-31 Restore default SIGPIPE handler before invoking ‘man’Eelco Dolstra4-15/+17
Fixes NixOS/nixpkgs#3410.
2014-07-30 Rename nixPath to __nixPathEelco Dolstra2-3/+3
The name ‘nixPath’ breaks existing code.
2014-07-25 nix-daemon: Pass on the user's $SSH_AUTH_SOCK to the SSH substituterEelco Dolstra4-0/+17
2014-07-25 Change the default for use-ssh-substituter to ‘true’Eelco Dolstra1-2/+2
Now you only have to pass ‘--option ssh-substituter-hosts nix-ssh@bla’ to enable SSH substitution.
2014-07-24 nix-copy-closure: Drop --bzip2, --xz, --show-progressEelco Dolstra1-32/+1
These are too difficult to implement via nix-store --serve. ‘--show-progress’ could be re-implemented fairly easily via a sink/source wrapper class.
2014-07-24 Implement nix-copy-closure --from via nix-store --serveEelco Dolstra2-1/+13
