This introduces the SourcePath type from lazy-trees as an abstraction
for accessing files from inputs that may not be materialized in the
real filesystem (e.g. Git repositories). Currently, however, it's just
a wrapper around CanonPath, so it shouldn't change any behaviour. (On
lazy-trees, SourcePath is a <InputAccessor, CanonPath> tuple.)
|
|
This is needed in subsequent commits to allow the settings and CLI args
infrastructure itself to read this setting.

We are looking for *$ because it indicate that it was constructed with a new but
not release. De-referencing shallow copy so deleting as whole might create
dangling pointer that's why we move it so we delete a empty containers + the
nice perf boost.

This makes the position object used in exceptions abstract, with a
method getSource() to get the source code of the file in which the
error originated. This is needed for lazy trees because source files
don't necessarily exist in the filesystem, and we don't want to make
libutil depend on the InputAccessor type in libfetcher.

Fixes #7026.

These are purely related to NIX_PATH / -I command line parsing, so put
them in libexpr.

Fix #6684

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.
|
|
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.

Also use std::string_view in a few more places.

once a string has been forced we already have dynamic storage allocated for it,
so we can easily reuse that storage instead of copying.

if we defer the duplicate argument check for lambda formals we can use more
efficient data structures for the formals set, and we can get rid of the
duplication of formals names to boot. instead of a list of formals we've seen
and a set of names we'll keep a vector instead and run a sort+dupcheck step
before moving the parsed formals into a newly created lambda. this improves
performance on search and rebuild by ~1%, pure parsing gains more (about 4%).
this does reorder lambda arguments in the xml output, but the output is still
stable. this shouldn't be a problem since argument order is not semantically
important anyway.

string expressions by and large do not need the benefits a Symbol gives us,
instead they pollute the symbol table and cause unnecessary overhead for almost
all strings. the one place we can think of that benefits from them (attrpaths
with expressions) extracts the benefit in the parser, which we'll have to touch
anyway when changing ExprString to hold strings.
this gives a sizeable improvement on of 3-5% on all benchmarks we've run.

it can be replaced with StringToken if we add another bit if information to
StringToken, namely whether this string should take part in indentation scanning
or not. since all escaping terminates indentation scanning we need to set this
bit only for the non-escaped IND_STRING rule.
this improves performance by about 1%.

when given a string yacc will copy the entire input to a newly allocated
location so that it can add a second terminating NUL byte. since the
parser is a very internal thing to EvalState we can ensure that having
two terminating NUL bytes is always possible without copying, and have
the parser itself merely check that the expected NULs are present.

every stringy token the lexer returns is turned into a Symbol and not
used further, so we don't have to strdup. using a string_view is
sufficient, but due to limitations of the current parser we have to use
a POD type that holds the same information.
gives ~2% on system build, 6% on search, 8% on parsing alone
