This fixes a very complicated bug (b/246). Evaluation
progresses *much* further after this, leading to several less
complicated bugs likely being uncovered by this
What was the problem?
=====================
Previously, when evaluating a thunk, we had a code path that looked
like this:
match *thunk {
ThunkRepr::Evaluated(Value::Thunk(ref inner_thunk)) => {
let inner_repr = inner_thunk.0.borrow().clone();
drop(thunk);
self.0.replace(inner_repr);
}
/* ... */
}
This code path created a copy of the inner `ThunkRepr` of a nested
thunk, and moved that copy into the `ThunkRepr` of the parent.
The effect of this was that the original `ThunkRepr` (unforced!) lived
on in the original thunk, without the memoization of the subsequent
forcing applying to it.
This had the result that Tvix would repeatedly evaluate these thunks
without ever memoizing them, if they occured repeatedly as shared
inner thunks. Most notably, this would *always* occur when
builtins.import was used.
What's the solution?
====================
I have completely rewritten `Thunk::force_trampoline_self` to make all
flows that can occur in it explicit. I have also removed the outer
loop inside of that function, and resorted to more use of trampolining
instead.
The function is now well-commented and it should be possible to read
it from top-to-bottom and get a general sense of what is going on,
though the trampolining itself (which is implemented in the VM) needs
to be at least partially understood for this.
What's the new problem(s)?
==========================
One new (known) problem is that we have to construct `Error` instances
in all error types here, but we do not have spans available in some
thunk-related situations. Due to b/238 we cannot ask the VM for an
arbitrary span from the callsite leading to the force. This means that
there are now code paths where, under certain conditions, causing an
evaluation error during thunk forcing will panic.
To fix this we will need to investigate and fix b/238, and/or add a
span tracking mechanism to thunks themselves.
What other impacts does this have?
==================================
With this commit, eval of nixpkgs mostly succeeds (things like stdenv
evaluate to the same hashes for us and C++ Nix, meaning we now
construct identical derivations without eval breaking).
Due to this we progress much further into nixpkgs, which lets us
uncover more additional bugs. For example, after this commit we can
quickly see that cl/7949 introduces some kind of behavioural issue and
should not be merged as-is (this was not apparent before).
Additionally, tvix-eval is now seemingly very fast. When doing
performance analysis of a nixpkgs eval, we now mostly see the code
path for shelling out to C++ Nix to add things to the store in there.
We still need those code paths, so we can not (yet) do a performance
analysis beyond that.

... not just a TODO.
Most use-cases of unsafeDiscardStringContext are for cases where a
string is processed in some ways and no longer contains a "physical"
reference, but still has its context attached in C++ Nix.
We don't need to do this. This does diverge in behaviour in use-cases
related to build scheduling, but that whole behaviour will be
different in Tvix.

Previously the construction of globals (a compiler-only concept) and
builtins (a (now) user-facing API) was intermingled between multiple
different modules, and kind of difficult to understand.
The complexity of this had grown in large part due to the
implementation of `builtins.import`, which required the notorious
"knot-tying" trick using Rc::new_cyclic (see cl/7097) for constructing
the set of globals.
As part of the new `Evaluation` API users should have the ability to
bring their own builtins, and control explicitly whether or not impure
builtins are available (regardless of whether they're compiled in or
not).
To streamline the construction and allow the new API features to work,
this commit restructures things by making these changes:
1. The `tvix_eval::builtins` module is now only responsible for
exporting sets of builtins. It no longer has any knowledge of
whether or not certain sets (e.g. only pure, or pure+impure) are
enabled, and it has no control over which builtins are globally
available (this is now handled in the compiler).
2. The compiler module is now responsible for both constructing the
final attribute set of builtins from the set of builtins supplied
by a user, as well as for populating its globals (that is
identifiers which are available at the top-level scope).
3. The `Evaluation` API now carries a `builtins` field which is
populated with the pure builtins by default, and can be extended by
users.
4. The `import` feature has been moved into the compiler, as a
special case. In general, builtins no longer have the ability to
reference the "fix point" of the globals set.
This should not change any functionality, and in fact preserves minor
differences between Tvix/Nix that we already had (such as
`builtins.builtins` not existing).

The `im::OrdMap` is already small and cheap to copy while sharing
memory, so this is not required anymore.
Only the `KV` variant may have slightly larger content, but in
practice this doesn't seem to make a difference when comparing the two
variants and this one is less complicated.

This uses the `im::OrdMap` for `NixAttrs` to enable sharing of memory
between different iterations of a map.
This slightly speeds up eval, but not significantly. Future work might
include benchmarking whether using a `HashMap` and only ordering in
cases where order is actually required would help.
This switches to a fork of `im` that fixes some bugs with its OrdMap
implementation.

The conversion from im::Vector -> Vec is cheaper for NixList
construction (of course), so where possible we should make use of
that.
This updates most builtins dealing with lists to use Vector directly,
and marks the function constructing NixList from Vec as deprecated so
that we get appropriate warnings in places where it's still in use.
These places are currently inside of JSON serialisation logic which is
in flux right now, so lets leave them as-is until it's stabilised.

This is a persistent, structurally sharing data structure which is
more efficient in some of our use-cases. I have verified the
efficiency improvement using `hyperfine` repeatedly over expressions
on nixpkgs.
Lists are not the most performance-critical structure in Nix (that
would be attribute sets), but we can already see a small (~5-10%)
improvement.
Note that there are a handful of cases where we still go via `Vec`
that need to be fixed, most notable for `builtins.sort` which can not
currently be implemented directly using `im::Vector` because of a
restrictive type bound.

Returns the store directory through EvalIO::store_dir.
Note that this is _optional_ in Tvix, as an evaluation can occur in a
context where there simply is no store directory. In those contexts,
`builtins.storeDir` returns `null` in Tvix.
This would only happen in contexts like Tvixbolt (or completely
unrelated use-cases) in practice.

This type carries the information required for calculating a
span (i.e. the chunk and offset), instead of the span itself. The span
is then only calculated in cases where it is required (when throwing
errors).
This reduces the eval time for
`builtins.length (builtins.attrNames (import <nixpkgs> {}))` by *one
third*!
The data structure in chunks that carries span information reduces
in-memory size by trading off the speed of retrieving span
information. This is because the span information is only actually
required when throwing errors (or emitting warnings).
However, somewhere along the way we grew a dependency on carrying span
information in thunks (for correctly reporting error chains). Hitting
the code paths for span retrieval was expensive, and carrying the
spans in a different way would still be less cache-efficient. This
change is the best tradeoff I could come up with.

When we start unrecursivifying (sp?) things, Rust's borrow checker
is going to be a headache; its magic only works when you use the CPU
stack as your call stack.
Fixing the borrow checker issues usually involves adding lots of
`clone()`s. Right now `NixList` is the only variant of `Value` that
isn't cheap to clone() -- all the others are either a wrapper around
Rc or else are of bounded size.
Note that this requires dropping the `DerefMut for NixList` instance
and using `Vec<Value>` instead in those situations.

This implementation closely follows the original implementation in
Nix, including the use of an equality-based "set" structure to track
keys that have already been processed.
Note that this test does not yet enable the `notyetpassing` test for
builtins.genericClosure because (for as of yet unknown reasons) this
test compares against XML output (however, evaluating the test case
actually does work).
This takes us one step closer to nixpkgs eval.

builtins, define a single builtin (the first in the list, `abort`) at
the top-level of a child module within builtins/mod.rs, and add it to

If this works nicely, we can start breaking out the rest of the builtins
into the top-level too, in addition to introducing additional sets of

This implements builtins.split, and passes eval-okay-regex-split.nix
(which is moved out of notyetpassing).

This is a bit tricky because the comparator can throw errors, so we
need to propagate them out if they exist and try to avoid sorting
forever by returning a reasonable ordering in this case (as
short-circuiting is not available).

Lists are compared lexicographically in C++ nix as of [0], and our
updated nix test suites depend on this. This implements comparison of
list values in `Value::nix_cmp` using a very similar algorithm to what
C++ does - similarly to there, this requires passing in the VM so we can
force thunks in the list elements as we go.

CL/7034 looks great, except that for a length-N target string it
will perform N deep copies of each of the from and to-lists. Let's
use references instead of clones.

CL/6867 added support for builtins.import, which required a cyclic
reference import->globals->builtins->import. This was implemented
using a RefCell, which makes it possible to mutate the builtins
during evaluation. The commit message for CL/6867 expressed a
desire to eliminate this possibility:
This opens up a potentially dangerous footgun in which we could
mutate the builtins at runtime leading to different compiler
invocations seeing different builtins, so it'd be nice to have
some kind of "finalised" status for them or some such, but I'm not
sure how to represent that atm.
This CL replaces the RefCell with Rc::new_cyclic(), making the
globals/builtins immutable once again. At VM runtime (once opcodes
start executing) everything is the same as before this CL, except
that the Rc<RefCell<>> introduced by CL/6867 is turned into an
rc::Weak<>.
The function passed to Rc::new_cyclic works very similarly to
overlays in nixpkgs: a function takes its own result as an argument.
However instead of laziness "breaking the cycle", Rust's
Rc::new_cyclic() instead uses an rc::Weak. This is done to prevent
memory leaks rather than divergence.
This CL also resolves the following TODO from CL/6867:
// TODO: encapsulate this import weirdness in builtins
The main disadvantage of this CL is the fact that the VM now must
ensure that it holds a strong reference to the globals while a
program is executing; failure to do so will cause a panic when the
weak reference in the builtins is upgrade()d.
In theory it should be possible to create strong reference cycles
the same way Rc::new_cyclic() creates weak cycles, but these cycles
would cause a permanent memory leak -- without either an rc::Weak or
RefCell there is no way to break the cycle. At some point we will
have to implement some form of cycle collection; whatever library we
choose for that purpose is likely to provide an "immutable strong
reference cycle" primitive similar to Rc::new_cyclic(), and we
should be able to simply drop it in.
