2024-10-05libstore: remove Goal::StillAliveeldritch horrors
this was a triumph. i'm making a note here: huge success. it's hard to overstate my satisfaction! i'm not even angry. i'm being so sincere ri actually, no. we *are* angry. this was one dumbass odyssey. nobody has asked for this. but not doing it would have locked us into old, broken protocols forever or (possibly worse) forced us to write our own async framework building on the old did-you-mean-continuations in Worker. if we had done that we'd be locked into ever more, and ever more complex, manual state management all over the place. this just could not stand.

2024-10-05fix build test error count checkseldritch horrors
with async runtime scheduling we can no longer guarantee exact error counts for builds that do not set keepGoing. the old behavior can be recovered with a number of hacks that affect scheduling, but none of those are very easy to follow now advisable. exact error counts will like not be needed for almost all uses except tests, and *those* had better check the actual messages rather than how many they got. more messages can even help to avoid unnecessary rebuilds for most users.

2024-10-05doc: install the HTML manual againAlois Wohlschlager
In 0e6b3435a14a304b8833c27d2911de7ac4e731d4, installation of the HTML manual was accidentally dropped: setting install_dir on a custom_target only sets the directory where something is going to be installed if it is installed at all, but does not itself trigger installation. The latter has to be explicitly requested, which is just what we do here to get the manual back. Change-Id: Iff8b791de7e7cb4c8d747c2a9b1154b5fcc32fe0

2024-10-04libstore: forbid addWantedGoals when finishedeldritch horrors
due to event loop scheduling behavior it's possible for a derivation goal to fully finish (having seen all paths it was asked to create), but to not notify the worker of this in time to prevent another goal asking the recently-finished goal for more outputs. if this happened the finished goal would ignore the request for more outputs since it considered itself fully done, and the delayed result reporting would cause the requesting goal to assume its request had been honored. if the requested goal had finished *properly* the worker would recreate it instead of asking for more outputs, and this would succeed. it is thus safe to always recreate goals once they are done, so we now do.

2024-10-01Remove static initializers for `RegisterLegacyCommand`Rebecca Turner
This moves the "legacy"/"nix2" commands under a new `src/legacy/` directory, instead of being scattered around in a bunch of different directories. A new `liblegacy` build target is defined, and the `nix` binary is linked against it. Then, `RegisterLegacyCommand` is replaced with `LegacyCommand::add` calls in functions like `registerNixCollectGarbage()`. These registration functions are called explicitly in `src/nix/main.cc`.

2024-10-01Split ignoreException to avoid suppressing CTRL-CRobert Hensing
This splits `ignoreException` into `ignoreExceptionExceptInterrupt` (which ignores all exceptions except `Interrupt`, which indicates a SIGINT/CTRL-C) and `ignoreExceptionInDestructor` (which ignores all exceptions, so that destructors do not throw exceptions). This prevents many cases where Nix ignores CTRL-C entirely.

2024-10-01libstore: turn Worker::updateStatistics into a promiseeldritch horrors
we'll now loop to update displayed statistics, and use this loop to limit the update rate to 50 times per second. we could have updated much more frequently before this (once per iteration of `runImpl`), much faster than would ever be useful in practice. aggressive stats updates can even impede progress due to terminal or network delays.

2024-10-01libstore: remove Worker::wakeUp()eldritch horrors
Worker::run() is now entirely based on the kj event loop and promises, so we need not handle awakeness of goals manually any more. every goal can instead, once it has finished a partial work call, defer itself to being called again in the next iteration of the loop. same end effect.

2024-10-01libstore: turn periodic gc attempt into a promiseeldritch horrors
notably we will check whether we want to do GC at all only once during startup, and we'll only attempt GC every ten seconds rather than every time a goal has finished a partial work call. this shouldn't cause any problems in practice since relying on auto-gc is not deterministic and stores in which builds can fill all remaining free space in merely ten seconds are severely troubled even when gargage collection runs a lot.

2024-09-29libstore: remove worker removeGoaleldritch horrors
this was immensely inefficient on large caches, as can exist when many derivations are buildable simultaneously. since we have smart pointers to goals we can do cache maintenance in goal deleters instead, and use the exact iterators instead of doing a linear search. this *does* rely on goals being deleted to remove them from the cache, which isn't true for toplevel goals. those would have previously been removed when done in all cases, removing the cache entry when keep-going is set. this is arguably incorrect since it might result in those goals being retried, although that could only happen with dynamic derivations or the likes. (luckily dynamic derivations not complete enough to allow this at all) Change-Id: I8e750b868393588c33e4829333d370f2c509ce99

2024-09-29libstore: remove Goal::keyeldritch horrors
this was a debugging aid from day one that should not have any impact on build semantics, and if it *does* have an impact on build semantics then build semantics are seriously broken. keeping the order imposed by these keys will be impossible once we let a real event loop schedule our jobs.

2024-09-29libstore: make non-cache goal pointers strongeldritch horrors
without circular references we do not need weak goal pointers except for caches, which should not prevent goal destructors running. caches though cannot create circular references even when they keep strong references. if we removed goals from caches when their work() is fully finished, not when their destructors are run, we could keep strong pointers in caches. since we do not gain much from this we keep those pointers weak for now.

2024-09-29libstore: remove Goal::WaitForWorldeldritch horrors
have DerivationGoal and its subclasses produce a wrapper promise for their intermediate results instead, and return this wrapper promise. Worker already handles promises that do not complete immediately, so we do not have to duplicate this into an entire result type variant. Change-Id: Iae8dbf63cfc742afda4d415922a29ac5a3f39348
2024-09-29libstore: fix build testseldritch horrors
the new event loop could very occasionally notice that a dependency of some goal has failed, process the failure, cause the depending goal to fail accordingly, and in the doing of the latter two steps let further dependencies that previously have not been reported as failed do their reporting anyway. in such cases a goal could fail with "1 dependencies failed", but more than one dependency failure message was shown. we'll now report the correct number of failed dependency goals in all cases.

2024-09-29libstore: have makeLocalDerivationGoal return unique_ptrseldritch horrors
these can be unique rather than shared because shared_ptr has a converting constructor. preparatory refactor for something else and not necessary on its own, and the extra allocations we must do for shared_ptr control blocks isn't usually relevant anyway.

2024-09-28libfetchers/git: restore compat with `builtins.fetchGit` from 2.3Maximilian Bosch
Since fb38459d6e58508245553380cccc03c0dbaa1542, each `ref` is appended with `refs/heads` unless it starts with `refs/` already. This regressed two use-cases that worked fine before: * Specifying a commit hash as `ref`: now, if `ref` looks like a commit hash it will be directly passed to `git fetch`. * Specifying a tag without `refs/tags` as prefix: now, the fetcher prepends `refs/*` to a ref that doesn't start with `refs/` and doesn't look like a commit hash. That way, both a branch and a tag specified in `ref` can be fetched. The order of preference in git is * file in `refs/` (e.g. `HEAD`) * file in `refs/tags/` * file in `refs/heads` (i.e. a branch) After fetching `refs/*`, ref is resolved the same way as git does.

2024-09-27build: let meson add compiler flags for libstdc++ assertionsOlivia Crain
We have manually enabled libstdc++ assertions since cl/797. Meson 1.4.0 (the minimum version we mandate) enables this by default, so we can remove the enabling compiler flag from the list of project arguments. With this patch, `-D_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS=1` is still present in the compile command logs when building with both gccStdenv and clangStdenv.

2024-09-27build: require meson 1.4.0 or newerOlivia Crain
This was already the de facto requirement, we use the method `full_path` on a file object (introduced in Meson 1.4.0) in the functional test suite's build. This version of Meson is in NixOS 24.05, so there should be no compatibility issues should this make it into a backported release of Lix.

2024-09-27build: fix deprecated uses of configure_fileOlivia Crain
Using `configure_file` to copy files has been deprecated since Meson 0.64.0. The intended replacement is the `fs.copyfile` method. This removes the following deprecation warning that arises when a minimum Meson version is specified: `` Project [...] uses feature deprecated since '0.64.0': copy arg in configure_file. Use fs.copyfile instead `` Change-Id: I09ffc92e96311ef9ed594343a0a16d51e74b114a
2024-09-27build: install html manual without using install_subdirOlivia Crain
In Meson, `install_subdir` is meant to be used with directories in the source directory. When using it to install the HTML manual, we provide it with a path under the build directory. We should instead specify an install directory for the HTML manual as part of the custom target that builds it. What we do currently isn't broken, just semantically incorrect. Changing it does get rid of the following deprecation warning, though: `` Project [...] uses feature deprecated since '0.60.0': install_subdir with empty directory. It worked by accident and is buggy. Use install_emptydir instead. `` Change-Id: I259583b7bdff8ecbb3b342653d70dc5f034c7fad
2024-09-27libstore: turn Goal::WaitForGoals into a promiseeldritch horrors
also gets rid of explicit strong references to dependencies of any goal, and weak references to dependers as well. those are now only held within promises representing goal completion and thus independent of the goal's relation to each other. the weak references to dependers was only needed for notifications, and that's much better handled entirely by kj itself.

2024-09-27libstore: replace Goal::WaitForSlot with semaphoreseldritch horrors
now that we have an event loop in the worker we can use it and its magical execution suspending properties to replace the slot counts we managed explicitly with semaphores and raii tokens. technically this would not have needed an event loop base to be doable, but it is a whole lot easier to wait for a token to be available if there is a callback mechanism ready for use that doesn't require a whole damn dedicated abstract method in Goal to work, and specific calls to that dedicated method strewn all over the worker implementation Change-Id: I1da7cf386d94e2bbf2dba9b53ff51dbce6a0cff7

this removes the rather janky did-you-mean-async poll loop we had so far. sadly kj does not play well with pty file descriptors, so we do have to add our own async input stream that does not eat pty EIO and turns it into an exception. that's still a *lot* better than the old code, and using a real even loop makes everything else easier later.

2024-09-26fix(nix fmt): remove the default "." argumentzimbatm
When `nix fmt` is called without an argument, Nix appends the "." argument before calling the formatter. The comment in the code is: > Format the current flake out of the box This also happens when formatting sub-folders. This means that the formatter is now unable to distinguish, as an interface, whether the "." argument is coming from the flake or the user's intent to format the current folder. This decision should be up to the formatter. Treefmt, for example, will automatically look up the project's root and format all the files. This is the desired behaviour. But because the "." argument is passed, it cannot function as expected. Upstream-PR: https://github.com/nixos/nix/pull/11438 Change-Id: I60fb6b3ed4ec1b24f81b5f0d76c0be98470817ce
