2024-08-28tree-wide: shuffle headers around for about 30s compile timeJade Lovelace
This didn't really feel so worth it afterwards, but I did untangle a bunch of stuff that should not have been tangled. The general gist of this change is that variant bullshit was causing a bunch of compile time, and it seems like the only way to deal with variant induced compile time is to keep variant types out of headers. Explicit template instantiation seems to do nothing for them. I also seem to have gotten some back-end time improvement from explicitly instantiating regex, but I don't know why. There is no corresponding front-end time improvement from it: regex is still at the top of the sinners list. **** Templates that took longest to instantiate: 15231 ms: std::basic_regex<char>::_M_compile (28 times, avg 543 ms) 15066 ms: std::__detail::_Compiler<std::regex_traits<char>>::_Compiler (28 times, avg 538 ms) 12571 ms: std::__detail::_Compiler<std::regex_traits<char>>::_M_disjunction (28 times, avg 448 ms) 12454 ms: std::__detail::_Compiler<std::regex_traits<char>>::_M_alternative (28 times, avg 444 ms) 12225 ms: std::__detail::_Compiler<std::regex_traits<char>>::_M_term (28 times, avg 436 ms) 11363 ms: nlohmann::basic_json<>::parse<const char *> (21 times, avg 541 ms) 10628 ms: nlohmann::basic_json<>::basic_json (109 times, avg 97 ms) 10134 ms: std::__detail::_Compiler<std::regex_traits<char>>::_M_atom (28 times, avg 361 ms) Back-end time before messing with the regex: **** Function sets that took longest to compile / optimize: 8076 ms: void boost::io::detail::put<$>(boost::io::detail::put_holder<$> cons...

2024-08-07libexpr/parser: Test experimental featurespiegames
Currently, the parser relies on the global experimental feature flags. In order to properly test conditional language features, we instead need to pass it around in the parser::State. This means that the parser cannot cache the result of isEnabled anymore, which wouldn't necessarily hurt performance if the function didn't perform a linear search on the list of enabled features on every single call. While we could simply evaluate once at the start of parsing and cache the result in the parser state, the more sustainable solution would be to fix `isEnabled` such that all callers may profit from the performance improvement.

2024-07-13language: cleanly ban integer overflowsJade Lovelace
This also bans various sneaking of negative numbers from the language into unsuspecting builtins as was exposed while auditing the consequences of changing the Nix language integer type to a newtype. It's unlikely that this change comprehensively ensures correctness when passing integers out of the Nix language and we should probably add a checked-narrowing function or something similar, but that's out of scope for the immediate change. During the development of this I found a few fun facts about the language: - You could overflow integers by converting from unsigned JSON values. - You could overflow unsigned integers by converting negative numbers into them when going into Nix config, into fetchTree, and into flake inputs. The flake inputs and Nix config cannot actually be tested properly since they both ban thunks, however, we put in checks anyway because it's possible these could somehow be used to do such shenanigans some other way. Note that Lix has banned Nix language integer overflows since the very first public beta, but threw a SIGILL about them because we run with -fsanitize=signed-overflow -fsanitize-undefined-trap-on-error in production builds. Since the Nix language uses signed integers, overflow was simply undefined behaviour, and since we defined that to trap, it did. Trapping on it was a bad UX, but we didn't even entirely notice that we had done this at all until it was reported as a bug a couple of months later (which is, to be fair, that flag working as intended), and it's got enough production time that, aside from code that is IMHO buggy (and which is, in any case, not in nixpkgs) such as https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/445, we don't think anyone doing anything reasonable actually depends on wrapping overflow. Even for weird use cases such as doing funny bit crimes, it doesn't make sense IMO to have wrapping behaviour, since two's complement arithmetic overflow behaviour is so *aggressively* not what you want for *any* kind of mathematics/algorithms. The Nix language exists for package management, a domain where bit crimes are already only dubiously in scope to begin with, and it makes a lot more sense for that domain for the integers to never lose precision, either by throwing errors if they would, or by being arbitrary-precision. This change will be ported to CppNix as well, to maintain language consistency. Fixes: https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/423 Change-Id: I51f253840c4af2ea5422b8a420aa5fafbf8fae75

2024-06-25libexpr: rewrite the parser with pegtl instead of flex/bisoneldritch horrors
this gives about 20% performance improvements on pure parsing. obviously it will be less on full eval, but depending on how much parsing is to be done (e.g. including hackage-packages.nix or not) it's more like 4%-10%. this has been tested (with thousands of core hours of fuzzing) to ensure that the ASTs produced by the new parser are exactly the same as the old one would have produced. error messages will change (sometimes by a lot) and are not yet perfect, but we would rather leave this as is for later. test results for running only the parser (excluding the variable binding code) in a tight loop with inputs and parameters as given are promising: - 40% faster on lix's package.nix at 10000 iterations - 1.3% faster on nixpkgs all-packages.nix at 1000 iterations - equivalent on all of nixpkgs concatenated at 100 iterations (excluding invalid files, each file surrounded with parens) more realistic benchmarks are somewhere in between the extremes, parsing once again getting the largest uplift. other realistic workloads improve by a few percentage points as well, notably system builds are 4% faster.

2024-06-18libexpr: fix accessing uninitialized values and fix pure-eval docsJade Lovelace
We got UBSan working on Lix, so we of course immediately found a bug and some definitely nonsense behaviour. Accessing `pureEval` or `restrictEval` from a default setting value is nonsense, since they would never be actually set by the time that value is set so they are not going to do anything. The configuration is not applied in an initializer (and even if it were, it's not going to be in the right order). After looking into *that*, we hunted down what actually was applying these, since clearly this code did not do anything. The EvalState constructor should have a "search path added and removed here :)" sign on it, because that's where it is done. We added an explicit initialization of the optional in there because it was otherwise unclear why pureEval also has the search path to allowed paths setup code run. We then realized that the `pureEval` documentation was *also* bogus, and we rewrote it. In so doing, we realized that we forgot to file a bug to make `builtins.storePath` work in pure eval mode, so we filed one of those: https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/402 Yaks have been thoroughly shorn.

sizeof(long) is 4 bytes on i686 GCC. With ~32 GiB of memory and a page size of 4096, there are 7988420 pages. (7988420 * 4096) is bigger than INT32_MAX folks. This has gone unnoticed for 9 years, and only came up thanks to 94ea517db[1] adding integer overflow sensitization checks, which caused this broken code to emit an illegal instruction, crashing Lix the instant the buildsystem ran Lix to generate the docs files.

2024-03-18use byte indexed locations for PosIdxeldritch horrors
we now keep not a table of all positions, but a table of all origins and their sizes. position indices are now direct pointers into the virtual concatenation of all parsed contents. this slightly reduces memory usage and time spent in the parser, at the cost of not being able to report positions if the total input size exceeds 4GiB. this limit is not unique to nix though, rustc and clang also limit their input to 4GiB (although at least clang refuses to process inputs that are larger, we will not). this new 4GiB limit probably will not cause any problems for quite a while, all of nixpkgs together is less than 100MiB in size and already needs over 700MiB of memory and multiple seconds just to parse. 4GiB worth of input will easily take multiple minutes and over 30GiB of memory without even evaluating anything. if problems *do* arise we can probably recover the old table-based system by adding some tracking to Pos::Origin (or increasing the size of PosIdx outright), but for time being this looks like more complexity than it's worth. since we now need to read the entire input again to determine the line/column of a position we'll make unsafeGetAttrPos slightly lazy: mostly the set it returns is only used to determine the file of origin of an attribute, not its exact location. the thunks do not add measurable runtime overhead. notably this change is necessary to allow changing the parser since apparently nothing supports nix's very idiosyncratic line ending choice of "anything goes", making it very hard to calculate line/column positions in the parser (while byte offsets are very easy).

2024-03-09libexpr: Support structured error classeseldritch horrors
While preparing PRs like #9753, I've had to change error messages in dozens of code paths. It would be nice if instead of EvalError("expected 'boolean' but found '%1%'", showType(v)) we could write TypeError(v, "boolean") or similar. Then, changing the error message could be a mechanical refactor with the compiler pointing out places the constructor needs to be changed, rather than the error-prone process of grepping through the codebase. Structured errors would also help prevent the "same" error from having multiple slightly different messages, and could be a first step towards error codes / an error index. This PR reworks the exception infrastructure in `libexpr` to support exception types with different constructor signatures than `BaseError`. Actually refactoring the exceptions to use structured data will come in a future PR (this one is big enough already, as it has to touch every exception in `libexpr`). The core design is in `eval-error.hh`. Generally, errors like this: state.error("'%s' is not a string", getAttrPathStr()) .debugThrow<TypeError>() are transformed like this: state.error<TypeError>("'%s' is not a string", getAttrPathStr()) .debugThrow() The type annotation has moved from `ErrorBuilder::debugThrow` to `EvalState::error`.
