2008-12-04 | * Build some 64-bit RPMs/Debs. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-12-04 | * Be sure to clean up the daemon if the test fails. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-12-04 | (no commit message) | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-12-04 | * Propagate --max-silent-time to remote machines. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-12-04 | * Prefer building on a remote machine over a local machine. This | Eelco Dolstra | |
makes more sense for the build farm, otherwise every nix-store invocation will lead to at least one local build. Will come up with a better solution later... | |||
2008-12-04 | * Build RPMs, Debs, coverage analysis. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-12-04 | * When using build hooks, for any nix-store -r build operation, it is | Eelco Dolstra | |
necessary that at least one build hook doesn't return "postpone", otherwise nix-store will barf ("waiting for a build slot, yet there are no running children"). So inform the build hook when this is the case, so that it can start a build even when that would exceed the maximum load on a machine. | |||
2008-12-04 | * Force allocation of a pseudo-terminal to clean up the remote | Eelco Dolstra | |
nix-store process when the connection is interrupted. | |||
2008-12-04 | * Don't ignore errors from writing to stderr. That way, when | Eelco Dolstra | |
nix-store -r (or some other operation) is started via ssh, it will at least have a chance of terminating quickly when the connection is killed. Right now it just runs to completion, because it never notices that stderr is no longer connected to anything. Of course it would be better if sshd would just send a SIGHUP, but it doesn't (https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=396). | |||
2008-12-04 | * Support multiple system types per remote machine, e.g. a machine | Eelco Dolstra | |
list like root@example.org x86_64-linux /root/.ssh/id_buildfarm 1 root@example.org i686-darwin /root/.ssh/id_buildfarm 1 This is possible when the Nix installation on example.org itself has remote builds enabled. | |||

2008-12-04 | * Dirty hack to make nix-push work properly on derivations: the | Eelco Dolstra | |
derivation should be a source rather than a derivation dependency of the call to the NAR derivation. Otherwise the derivation (and all its dependencies) will be built as a side-effect, which may not even succeed. | |||
2008-12-03 | * addToStore() in nix-worker: don't write the NAR dump received from | Eelco Dolstra | |
the client to a temporary directory, as that is highly inefficient. | |||
2008-12-03 | * A simple API for parsing NAR archives. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-12-03 | * Backwards compatibility. | Eelco Dolstra | |

2008-12-03 | * Pass HashType values instead of strings. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-12-03 | * Made addToStore() a lot more efficient: it no longer reads the path | Eelco Dolstra | |
being copied 3 times in the worst case. It doesn't run in constant space, but it didn't do that anyway. | |||
2008-12-03 | * Unify the treatment of sources copied to the store, and recursive | Eelco Dolstra | |
SHA-256 outputs of fixed-output derivations. I.e. they now produce the same store path: $ nix-store --add x /nix/store/j2fq9qxvvxgqymvpszhs773ncci45xsj-x $ nix-store --add-fixed --recursive sha256 x /nix/store/j2fq9qxvvxgqymvpszhs773ncci45xsj-x the latter being the same as the path that a derivation derivation { name = "x"; outputHashAlgo = "sha256"; outputHashMode = "recursive"; outputHash = "..."; ... }; produces. This does change the output path for such fixed-output derivations. Fortunately they are quite rare. The most common use is fetchsvn calls with SHA-256 hashes. (There are a handful of those is Nixpkgs, mostly unstable development packages.) * Documented the computation of store paths (in store-api.cc). | |||
2008-11-29 | * Install the release notes. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-11-26 | * Moved the build farm job for building Nix to the Nix tree. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-11-25 | * Ignore carriage returns. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-11-25 | * Handle prematurely ended logfiles, i.e. make sure we emit enough | Eelco Dolstra | |
close tags. | |||
2008-11-20 | * Bump the version number. | Eelco Dolstra | |

2008-11-20 | * Blindly doing a replacement of occurences of $bindir (when running | Eelco Dolstra | |
the tests) is a bad idea when $bindir = /usr and some programs (like perl) live there. Fortunately it doesn't seem to be needed anymore. | |||
2008-11-20 | * Don't set the prefix to /nix by default, rather use the Autoconf | Eelco Dolstra | |
default of /usr/local. However, localstatedir and storedir are set to /nix/var/nix and /nix/store respectively unless they're explicitly overriden. | |||
2008-11-20 | * Nix daemon: reload the configuration file after forking (NIX-100). | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-11-20 | (no commit message) | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-11-19 | * Primop builtins.storePath for declaring a store path as a | Eelco Dolstra | |
dependency. `storePath /nix/store/bla' gives exactly the same result as `toPath /nix/store/bla', except that the former includes /nix/store/bla in the dependency context of the string. Useful in some generated Nix expressions like nix-push, which now finally does the right thing wrt distributed builds. (Previously the path to be packed wasn't an explicit dependency, so it wouldn't be copied to the remote machine.) | |||
2008-11-19 | * Patterns. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-11-19 | (no commit message) | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-11-19 | * Updated the manual. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-11-19 | * Files in the info directory starting with "." are temporary files | Eelco Dolstra | |
and don't indicate path validity. | |||
2008-11-19 | * nix-store --dump-db: be more streamy. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-11-19 | * Documented some of the sharing mechanisms. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-11-19 | * Install documentation in $(docdir) (i.e. share/doc/nix). | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-11-19 | * Removed obsolete option. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-11-19 | * Remove references to Berkeley DB, including most of the | Eelco Dolstra | |
troubleshooting section. W00t. | |||
2008-11-19 | * Release notes. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-11-18 | * Get rid of nix-pack-closure / nix-unpack-closure, they're redundant. | Eelco Dolstra | |
2008-11-14 | * Prevent zombies. Previous the SIGCHLD handler only reaped one | Eelco Dolstra | |
zombie at a time, so if multiple children died before the handler got to run, some of them would not be cleaned up. | |||
2008-11-14 | * Restore SIGPIPE to SIG_DFL when running the builder. This prevents | Eelco Dolstra | |
subtle and often hard-to-reproduce bugs where programs in pipes either barf with a "Broken pipe" message or not, depending on the exact timing conditions. This particularly happened in GNU M4 (and Bison, which uses M4). | |||
2008-11-12 | * Some somewhat ad hoc mechanism to allow the build farm to monitor | Eelco Dolstra | |
build progress. |
