2019-02-05Revert "Restore parent mount namespace before executing a child process"Eelco Dolstra
This reverts commit a0ef21262f4d5652bfb65cfacaec01d89c475a93. This doesn't work in 'nix run' and nix-shell because setns() fails in multithreaded programs, and Boehm GC mark threads are uncancellable. Fixes #2646.

2019-01-23nix-store: make --dump-db take a list of paths to dumpSpencer Baugh
Inside a derivation, exportReferencesGraph already provides a way to dump the Nix database for a specific closure. On the command line, --dump-db gave us the same information, but only for the entire Nix database at once. With this change, one can now pass a list of paths to --dump-db to get the Nix database dumped for just those paths. (The user is responsible for ensuring this is a closure, like for --export). Among other things, this is useful for deploying a closure to a new host without using --import/--export; one can use tar to transfer the store paths, and --dump-db/--load-db to transfer the validity information. This is useful if the new host doesn't actually have Nix yet, and the closure that is being deployed itself contains Nix.

2019-01-14Add builtins.getContext.Shea Levy
This can be very helpful when debugging, as well as enabling complex black magic like surgically removing a single dependency from a string's context.
2019-01-13Treat plain derivation paths in context as normal paths.Shea Levy
Previously, plain derivation paths in the string context (e.g. those that arose from builtins.storePath on a drv file, not those that arose from accessing .drvPath of a derivation) were treated somewhat like derivaiton paths derived from .drvPath, except their dependencies weren't recursively added to the input set. With this change, such plain derivation paths are simply treated as paths and added to the source inputs set accordingly, simplifying context handling code and removing the inconsistency. If drvPath-like behavior is desired, the .drv file can be imported and then .drvPath can be accessed. This is a backwards-incompatibility, but storePath is never used on drv files within nixpkgs and almost never used elsewhere.

2018-12-30Remove some bashisms from configure.acMateusz Piotrowski
"configure.ac" is used to generate "configure", which is supposed to be run with /bin/sh (as suggested by the shebang line of "configure"). As a result it is a good idea to remove any /bin/sh-incompatible syntax from configure.ac. Otherwise, systems that do not use Bash as their /bin/sh are unable to run "configure" due to syntax errors.

2018-12-13Support SRI hashesEelco Dolstra
SRI hashes (https://www.w3.org/TR/SRI/) combine the hash algorithm and a base-64 hash. This allows more concise and standard hash specifications. For example, instead of import <nix/fetchurl.nl> { url = https://nixos.org/releases/nix/nix-2.1.3/nix-2.1.3.tar.xz; sha256 = "5d22dad058d5c800d65a115f919da22938c50dd6ba98c5e3a183172d149840a4"; }; you can write import <nix/fetchurl.nl> { url = https://nixos.org/releases/nix/nix-2.1.3/nix-2.1.3.tar.xz; hash = "sha256-XSLa0FjVyADWWhFfkZ2iKTjFDda6mMXjoYMXLRSYQKQ="; }; In fixed-output derivations, the outputHashAlgo is no longer mandatory if outputHash specifies the hash (either as an SRI or in the old "<type>:<hash>" format). 'nix hash-{file,path}' now print hashes in SRI format by default. I also reverted them to use SHA-256 by default because that's what we're using most of the time in Nixpkgs. Suggested by @zimbatm.
