In particular, use std::make_shared and enumerate(). Also renamed some
fields to fit naming conventions.

after #6218 `Symbol` no longer confers a uniqueness invariant on the
string it wraps, it is now possible to create multiple symbols that
compare equal but whose string contents have different addresses. this
guarantee is now only provided by `SymbolIdx`, leaving `Symbol` only as
a string wrapper that knows about the intricacies of how symbols need to
be formatted for output.
this change renames `SymbolIdx` to `Symbol` to restore the previous
semantics of `Symbol` to that name. we also keep the wrapper type and
rename it to `SymbolStr` instead of returning plain strings from lookups
into the symbol table because symbols are formatted for output in many
places. theoretically we do not need `SymbolStr`, only a function that
formats a string for output as a symbol, but having to wrap every symbol
that appears in a message into eg `formatSymbol()` is error-prone and
inconvient.

this slightly increases the amount of memory used for any given symbol, but this
increase is more than made up for if the symbol is referenced more than once in
the EvalState that holds it. on average every symbol should be referenced at
least twice (once to introduce a binding, once to use it), so we expect no
increase in memory on average.
symbol tables are limited to 2³² entries like position tables, and similar
arguments apply to why overflow is not likely: 2³² symbols would require as many
string instances (at 24 bytes each) and map entries (at 24 bytes or more each,
assuming that the map holds on average at most one item per bucket as the docs
say). a full symbol table would require at least 192GB of memory just for
symbols, which is well out of reach. (an ofborg eval of nixpks today creates
less than a million symbols!)
|
|
PosTable deduplicates origin information, so using symbols for paths is no
longer necessary. moving away from path Symbols also reduces the usage of
symbols for things that are not keys in attribute sets, which will become
important in the future when we turn symbols into indices as well.
|
|
Pos objects are somewhat wasteful as they duplicate the origin file name and
input type for each object. on files that produce more than one Pos when parsed
this a sizeable waste of memory (one pointer per Pos). the same goes for
ptr<Pos> on 64 bit machines: parsing enough source to require 8 bytes to locate
a position would need at least 8GB of input and 64GB of expression memory. it's
not likely that we'll hit that any time soon, so we can use a uint32_t index to
locate positions instead.
|
|
when we introduce position and symbol tables we'll need to do lookups to turn
indices into those tables into actual positions/symbols. having the error
functions as members of EvalState will avoid a lot of churn for adding lookups
into the tables for each caller.
|
|
the only use of this function is to determine whether a lambda has a non-set
formal, but this use is arguably better served by Symbol::set and using a
non-Symbol instead of an empty symbol in the parser when no such formal is present.
|
|
we don't *need* symbols here. the only advantage they have over strings is
making call-counting slightly faster, but that's a diagnostic feature and thus
needn't be optimized.
this also fixes a move bug that previously didn't show up: PrimOp structs were
accessed after being moved from, which technically invalidates them. previously
the names remained valid because Symbol copies on move, but strings are
invalidated. we now copy the entire primop struct instead of moving since primop
registration happen once and are not performance-sensitive.

Impure derivations are derivations that can produce a different result
every time they're built. Example:
stdenv.mkDerivation {
name = "impure";
__impure = true; # marks this derivation as impure
outputHashAlgo = "sha256";
outputHashMode = "recursive";
buildCommand = "date > $out";
};
Some important characteristics:
* This requires the 'impure-derivations' experimental feature.
* Impure derivations are not "cached". Thus, running "nix-build" on
the example above multiple times will cause a rebuild every time.
* They are implemented similar to CA derivations, i.e. the output is
moved to a content-addressed path in the store. The difference is
that we don't register a realisation in the Nix database.
* Pure derivations are not allowed to depend on impure derivations. In
the future fixed-output derivations will be allowed to depend on
impure derivations, thus forming an "impurity barrier" in the
dependency graph.
* When sandboxing is enabled, impure derivations can access the
network in the same way as fixed-output derivations. In relaxed
sandboxing mode, they can access the local filesystem.

This allows writing fallback code like
if builtins ? fetchClosure then
builtins.fetchClose { ... }

Fixes #6243.
|

This ensures that it doesn't get parsed as a valid Nix expression.
|
|
I gather decoding happens on demand, so I hope don't think this should
have any perf implications one way or the other.

these functions are called a whole lot, and they're all comparatively small.
always inlining them gives ~0.7% performance boost on eval.

turns out it's only necessary for MANUAL_VDB, which nix doesn't use. omitting
them gives a slight performance improvement on eval.

```console
$ nix eval --expr '({ foo ? 1 }: foo) { fob = 2; }'
error: anonymous function at (string):1:2 called with unexpected argument 'fob'
at «string»:1:1:
1| ({ foo ? 1 }: foo) { fob = 2; }
| ^
Did you mean foo?
```
Not that because Nix will first check for _missing_ arguments before
checking for extra arguments, `({ foo }: foo) { fob = 1; }` will
complain about the missing `foo` argument (rather than extra `fob`) and
so won’t display a suggestion.
|

Make the evaluator show some suggestions when trying to access an
invalid field from an attrset.
```console
$ nix eval --expr '{ foo = 1; }.foa'
error: attribute 'foa' missing
at «string»:1:1:
1| { foo = 1; }.foa
| ^
Did you mean foo?
```

Refactor the `size == 0` logic into a new helper function that
replaces dupStringWithLen.
The name had to change, because unlike a `dup`-function, it does
not always allocate a new string.
|
|
|
|
|
|
We now memoize on Bindings / list element vectors rather than Values,
so that e.g. two Values that point to the same Bindings will be
printed only once.

Fixes #6157.
|
|
This is useful whenever we want to evaluate something to a store path
(e.g. in get-drvs.cc).
Extracted from the lazy-trees branch (where we can require that a
store path must come from a store source tree accessor).
|
|
This was introduced in #6174. However fetch{url,Tarball} are legacy
and we shouldn't have an undocumented attribute that does the same
thing as one that already exists ('sha256').
|
|
This switches addPath from `printStorePath` to `toRealPath`.
|
|
Also use std::string_view in a few more places.
