Instead, it's passed in the evaluate/compile_only functions, which feels more naturally. It lets us set up the Evaluation struct long before we actually feed it with data to evaluate. Now that Evaluation::new() would be accepting an empty list of arguments, we can simply implement Default, making things a bit more idiomatic.

2023-03-13 r/5964 refactor(tvix/eval): flatten call stack of VM using generatorsVincent Ambo1-4/+2
Warning: This is probably the biggest refactor in tvix-eval history, so far. This replaces all instances of trampolines and recursion during evaluation of the VM loop with generators. A generator is an asynchronous function that can be suspended to yield a message (in our case, vm::generators::GeneratorRequest) and receive a response (vm::generators::GeneratorResponsee). The `genawaiter` crate provides an interpreter for generators that can drive their execution and lets us move control flow between the VM and suspended generators. To do this, massive changes have occured basically everywhere in the code. On a high-level: 1. The VM is now organised around a frame stack. A frame is either a call frame (execution of Tvix bytecode) or a generator frame (a running or suspended generator). The VM has an outer loop that pops a frame off the frame stack, and then enters an inner loop either driving the execution of the bytecode or the execution of a generator. Both types of frames have several branches that can result in the frame re-enqueuing itself, and enqueuing some other work (in the form of a different frame) on top of itself. The VM will eventually resume the frame when everything "above" it has been suspended. In this way, the VM's new frame stack takes over much of the work that was previously achieved by recursion. 2. All methods previously taking a VM have been refactored into async functions that instead emit/receive generator messages for communication with the VM. Notably, this includes *all* builtins. This has had some other effects: - Some test have been removed or commented out, either because they tested code that was mostly already dead (nix_eq) or because they now require generator scaffolding which we do not have in place for tests (yet). - Because generator functions are technically async (though no async IO is involved), we lose the ability to use much of the Rust standard library e.g. in builtins. This has led to many algorithms being unrolled into iterative versions instead of iterator combinations, and things like sorting had to be implemented from scratch. - Many call sites that previously saw a `Result<..., ErrorKind>` bubble up now only see the result value, as the error handling is encapsulated within the generator loop. This reduces number of places inside of builtin implementations where error context can be attached to calls that can fail. Currently what we gain in this tradeoff is significantly more detailed span information (which we still need to bubble up, this commit does not change the error display). We'll need to do some analysis later of how useful the errors turn out to be and potentially introduce some methods for attaching context to a generator frame again. This change is very difficult to do in stages, as it is very much an "all or nothing" change that affects huge parts of the codebase. I've tried to isolate changes that can be isolated into the parent CLs of this one, but this change is still quite difficult to wrap one's mind and I'm available to discuss it and explain things to any reviewer. Fixes: b/238, b/237, b/251 and potentially others.

2023-01-04 r/5581 refactor(tvix/eval): streamline construction of globals/builtinsVincent Ambo1-4/+31
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).

A step towards something more like how I imagine the future public API for tvix-eval. Please note that this is definitely not the final version yet, but it's better than the previous API that either exposed a side-effecting blackbox, or a very low-level "interface". The basic idea is that an evaluation of some Nix code is requested by a caller with various parameters, but not all callers are interested in all of these parameters. There are also some bits of information that are returned from an evaluation that are not necessarily relevant to all callers. To support this somewhat ergonomically, the API is built around an `Evaluation` struct that is configured by the caller with the various parameters and then "executed".

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.

2022-10-24 r/5190 feat(tvix/eval): implement builtins.currentSystemAdam Joseph1-0/+1
This commit implements builtins.currentSystem, by capturing the cargo environment variable `TARGET` and exposing it to rustc as `TVIX_CURRENT_SYSTEM` so it can be inserted into the source code using `env!()`. The resulting value needs to be massaged a bit, since it is an "LLVM triple". The current code should work for all the platforms for which cppnix works (thanks qyliss for generating the list!). It does *not* reject all of the triples that cppnix's configure.ac rejects -- it is much more forgiving. We can tighten this up in a future commit.

2022-10-16 r/5143 feat(tvix/eval): add an AST pretty-printing moduleVincent Ambo1-0/+2
This implements serde::Serialize for the rnix AST through a wrapper type, and exposes a function for serialising the AST into a (pretty-printed JSON) string representation. This can be used to debug issues with the AST, and to display an AST reprsentation in tools like tvixbolt. Serialize is implemented manually because we don't own any of the structs and the way to traverse them is not easily derived automatically, and this is quite verbose. We might be able to condense it a little bit, but at the same time it's also fairly straightforward.

Refactor the environment variable and argument parsing for the tvix repl to use Clap instead of doing things ad-hoc, and thread through options obtained from environment variables via explicit arguments rather than obtaining them from the environment as they're needed. This makes adding more flags more sustainable, and also makes the binary fully self-documenting, including supported env vars, via `--help`.
