2015-04-09Use cached result if there is a network errorEelco Dolstra
2015-04-09Move curl stuff into a separate fileEelco Dolstra
2015-04-09Implement a TTL on cached fetchurl/fetchTarball resultsEelco Dolstra
This is because we don't want to do HTTP requests on every evaluation, even though we can prevent a full redownload via the cached ETag. The default is one hour.
2015-04-09Implement caching of fetchurl/fetchTarball resultsEelco Dolstra
ETags are used to prevent redownloading unchanged files.
2015-04-07Revert /nix/store permission back to 01775Eelco Dolstra
This broke NixOS VM tests. Mostly reverts 27b7b94923d2f207781b438bb7a57669bddf7d2b, 5ce50cd99e740d0d0f18c30327ae687be9356553, afa433e58c3fe6029660a43fdc2073c9d15b4210.
2015-04-02Chroot builds: Provide world-readable /nix/storeEelco Dolstra
This was causing NixOS VM tests to fail mysteriously since 5ce50cd99e740d0d0f18c30327ae687be9356553. Nscd could (sometimes) no longer read /etc/hosts: open("/etc/hosts", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied) Probably there was some wacky interaction between the guest kernel and the 9pfs implementation in QEMU.
2015-03-27Add dependency on libcurl-devEelco Dolstra
http://hydra.nixos.org/eval/1179370
2015-03-25Add fetchTarball builtinEelco Dolstra
This function downloads and unpacks the given URL at evaluation time. This is primarily intended to make it easier to deal with Nix expressions that have external dependencies. For instance, to fetch Nixpkgs 14.12: with import (fetchTarball https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels/archive/nixos-14.12.tar.gz) {}; Or to fetch a specific revision: with import (fetchTarball https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/archive/2766a4b44ee6eafae03a042801270c7f6b8ed32a.tar.gz) {}; This patch also adds a ‘fetchurl’ builtin that downloads but doesn't unpack its argument. Not sure if it's useful though.
2015-03-25addToStore(): Take explicit name argumentEelco Dolstra
2015-03-24Improve setting the default chroot dirsEelco Dolstra
2015-03-24Add the closure of store paths to the chrootEelco Dolstra
Thus, for example, to get /bin/sh in a chroot, you only need to specify /bin/sh=${pkgs.bash}/bin/sh in build-chroot-dirs. The dependencies of sh will be added automatically.
2015-03-24Tighten permissions on chroot directoriesEelco Dolstra
2015-03-24Don't rely on __noChroot for corepkgsEelco Dolstra
This doesn't work anymore if the "strict" chroot mode is enabled. Instead, add Nix's store path as a dependency. This ensures that its closure is present in the chroot.
2015-03-19Disable scanning for interior pointersEelco Dolstra
This may remove the "Repeated allocation of very large block" warnings.
2015-03-19Fix Boehm API violationEelco Dolstra
We were calling GC_INIT() after doing an allocation (in the baseEnv construction), which is not allowed.

2015-03-04Don't use vfork() before clone()Eelco Dolstra
I'm seeing hangs in Glibc's setxid_mark_thread() again. This is probably because the use of an intermediate process to make clone() safe from a multi-threaded program (see 524f89f1399724e596f61faba2c6861b1bb7b9c5) is defeated by the use of vfork(), since the intermediate process will have a copy of Glibc's threading data structures due to the vfork(). So use a regular fork() again.

Make the default impure prefix include all of /System/Library
2015-03-02Make the default impure prefix (not actual allowed impurities!) include all ↵Dan Peebles
of /System/Library, since we also want PrivateFrameworks from there and (briefly) TextEncodings, and who knows what else. Yay infectious impurities?

2015-02-23More graceful fallback for chroots on Linux < 2.13Eelco Dolstra
2015-02-23Use chroots for all derivationsEelco Dolstra
If ‘build-use-chroot’ is set to ‘true’, fixed-output derivations are now also chrooted. However, unlike normal derivations, they don't get a private network namespace, so they can still access the network. Also, the use of the ‘__noChroot’ derivation attribute is no longer allowed. Setting ‘build-use-chroot’ to ‘relaxed’ gives the old behaviour.
2015-02-23Add restricted evaluation modeEelco Dolstra
If ‘--option restrict-eval true’ is given, the evaluator will throw an exception if an attempt is made to access any file outside of the Nix search path. This is primarily intended for Hydra, where we don't want people doing ‘builtins.readFile ~/.ssh/id_dsa’ or stuff like that.

2015-02-17Keep sortedEelco Dolstra
2015-02-17Include NAR size in fingerprint computationEelco Dolstra
This is not strictly needed for integrity (since we already include the NAR hash in the fingerprint) but it helps against endless data attacks [1]. (However, this will also require download-from-binary-cache.pl to bail out if it receives more than the specified number of bytes.) [1] https://isis.poly.edu/~jcappos/papers/cappos_mirror_ccs_08.pdf
