2021-10-11(partially) Revert "Don't copy in rethrow"regnat
This reverts some parts of commit 8430a8f0866e4463a891ccce62779ea9ac0f3b38 which was trying to rethrow some exceptions while we weren’t in the context of a `catch` block, causing some weird “terminate called without an active exception” errors. Fix #5368

We now build the context (so this has the side-effect of making builtins.{path,filterSource} work on derivations outputs, if IFD is enabled) and then check that the path has no references (which is what we really care about).

2021-10-06libexpr: remove matchAttrs boolean from ExprLambdaAndreas Rammhold
The boolean is only used to determine if the formals are set to a non-null pointer in all our cases. We can get rid of that allocation and instead just compare the pointer value with NULL. Saving up to sizeof(bool) + platform specific alignment per ExprLambda instace. Probably not a lot of memory but perhaps a few kilobyte with nixpkgs? This also gets rid of a potential issue with dereferencing formals based on the value of the boolean that didn't have to be aligned with the formals pointer but was in all our cases.
2021-09-30`std::visit` by referenceJohn Ericson
I had started the trend of doing `std::visit` by value (because a type error once mislead me into thinking that was the only form that existed). While the optomizer in principle should be able to deal with extra coppying or extra indirection once the lambdas inlined, sticking with by reference is the conventional default. I hope this might even improve performance.

libexpr: throw a more helpful eval-error if a builtin is not available due to a missing feature-flag
2021-09-29libexpr: throw a more helpful eval-error if a builtin is not available due ↵Maximilian Bosch
to a missing feature-flag I found it somewhat confusing to have an error like error: attribute 'getFlake' missing if the required experimental-feature (`flakes`) is not enabled. Instead, I'd expect Nix to throw an error just like it's the case when using e.g. `nix flake` without `flakes` being enabled. With this change, the error looks like this: $ nix-instantiate -E 'builtins.getFlake "nixpkgs"' error: Cannot call 'builtins.getFlake' because experimental Nix feature 'flakes' is disabled. You can enable it via '--extra-experimental-features flakes'. at «string»:1:1: 1| builtins.getFlake "nixpkgs" | ^ I didn't use `settings.requireExperimentalFeature` here on purpose because this doesn't contain a position. Also, it doesn't seem as if we need to catch the error and check for the missing feature here since this already happens at evaluation time.

2021-09-14Disallow reading flake.lockEelco Dolstra
With --no-write-lock-file, it's possible that flake.lock is out of sync with the actual inputs used by the evaluation. So doing fromJSON (readFile ./flake.lock) will give wrong results. Fixes #4639.

primops/storePath: add trace to pure mode error
2021-04-27primops/storePath: add trace to pure mode errorMaximilian Bosch
As described in #4745 it's otherwise fairly hard to understand where this is coming from. Say you have an expression which uses e.g. `types.package`: ``` nix { outputs = { self, nixpkgs }: { packages.x86_64-linux.hello = let foo = nixpkgs.lib.evalModules { modules = [ { options.foo.bar = with nixpkgs.lib; mkOption { type = types.package; }; } { foo.bar = ./.; } ]; }; in builtins.trace foo.config.foo.bar.outPath nixpkgs.legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.hello; defaultPackage.x86_64-linux = self.packages.x86_64-linux.hello; }; } ``` Then you'll get an error trace like this: ``` error: 'builtins.storePath' is not allowed in pure evaluation mode at /nix/store/p4h2x6r80njkb0j2rc1xjhhl99yri3zb-source/lib/attrsets.nix:328:15: 327| let 328| path' = builtins.storePath path; | ^ 329| res = … while evaluating the attribute 'config.foo.bar.outPath' at /nix/store/p4h2x6r80njkb0j2rc1xjhhl99yri3zb-source/lib/attrsets.nix:332:11: 331| name = sanitizeDerivationName (builtins.substring 33 (-1) (baseNameOf path')); 332| outPath = path'; | ^ 333| outputs = [ "out" ]; … while evaluating the attribute 'packages.x86_64-linux.hello' at /nix/store/6c1rfsqzrhjw1235palzjmf5vihcpci7-source/flake.nix:3:5: 2| { outputs = { self, nixpkgs }: { 3| packages.x86_64-linux.hello = let | ^ 4| foo = nixpkgs.lib.evalModules { ``` Fixes #4745
2021-04-23Replace the trailing markdown spaces by a backslashregnat
They are equivalent according to <https://spec.commonmark.org/0.29/#hard-line-breaks>, and the trailing spaces tend to be a pain (because the make git complain, editors tend to want to remove them − the `.editorconfig` actually specifies that − etc..).

2021-04-13libexpr: misc improvements for proper error positionMaximilian Bosch
When working on some more complex Nix code, there are sometimes rather unhelpful or misleading error messages, especially if coerce-errors are thrown. This patch is a first steps towards improving that. I'm happy to file more changes after that, but I'd like to gather some feedback first. To summarize, this patch does the following things: * Attrsets (a.k.a. `Bindings` in `libexpr`) now have a `Pos`. This is helpful e.g. to identify which attribute-set in `listToAttrs` is invalid. * The `Value`-struct has a new method named `determinePos` which tries to guess the position of a value and falls back to a default if that's not possible. This can be used to provide better messages if a coercion fails. * The new `determinePos`-API is used by `builtins.concatMap` now. With that change, Nix shows the exact position in the error where a wrong value was returned by the lambda. To make sure it's still obvious that `concatMap` is the problem, another stack-frame was added. * The changes described above can be added to every other `primop`, but first I'd like to get some feedback about the overall approach.
2021-04-13primops/derivation: use position of currently evaluated attributeMaximilian Bosch
* The position of the `name`-attribute appears in the trace. * If e.g. `meta` has no `outPath`-attribute, a `cannot coerce set to string` error will be thrown where `pos` points to `name =` which is highly misleading.
2021-04-05Rename BuildableJohn Ericson
2021-04-05Use `BuildableReq` for `buildPaths` and `ensurePath`John Ericson
This avoids an ambiguity where the `StorePathWithOutputs { drvPath, {} }` could mean "build `brvPath`" or "substitute `drvPath`" depending on context. It also brings the internals closer in line to the new CLI, by generalizing the `Buildable` type is used there and makes that distinction already. In doing so, relegate `StorePathWithOutputs` to being a type just for backwards compatibility (CLI and RPC).

2021-01-21Improve error formattingEelco Dolstra
Changes: * The divider lines are gone. These were in practice a bit confusing, in particular with --show-trace or --keep-going, since then there were multiple lines, suggesting a start/end which wasn't the case. * Instead, multi-line error messages are now indented to align with the prefix (e.g. "error: "). * The 'description' field is gone since we weren't really using it. * 'hint' is renamed to 'msg' since it really wasn't a hint. * The error is now printed *before* the location info. * The 'name' field is no longer printed since most of the time it wasn't very useful since it was just the name of the exception (like EvalError). Ideally in the future this would be a unique, easily googleable error ID (like rustc). * "trace:" is now just "…". This assumes error contexts start with something like "while doing X". Example before: error: --- AssertionError ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- nix at: (7:7) in file: /home/eelco/Dev/nixpkgs/pkgs/applications/misc/hello/default.nix 6| 7| x = assert false; 1; | ^ 8| assertion 'false' failed ----------------------------------------------------- show-trace ----------------------------------------------------- trace: while evaluating the attribute 'x' of the derivation 'hello-2.10' at: (192:11) in file: /home/eelco/Dev/nixpkgs/pkgs/stdenv/generic/make-derivation.nix 191| // (lib.optionalAttrs (!(attrs ? name) && attrs ? pname && attrs ? version)) { 192| name = "${attrs.pname}-${attrs.version}"; | ^ 193| } // (lib.optionalAttrs (stdenv.hostPlatform != stdenv.buildPlatform && !dontAddHostSuffix && (attrs ? name || (attrs ? pname && attrs ? version)))) { Example after: error: assertion 'false' failed at: (7:7) in file: /home/eelco/Dev/nixpkgs/pkgs/applications/misc/hello/default.nix 6| 7| x = assert false; 1; | ^ 8| … while evaluating the attribute 'x' of the derivation 'hello-2.10' at: (192:11) in file: /home/eelco/Dev/nixpkgs/pkgs/stdenv/generic/make-derivation.nix 191| // (lib.optionalAttrs (!(attrs ? name) && attrs ? pname && attrs ? version)) { 192| name = "${attrs.pname}-${attrs.version}"; | ^ 193| } // (lib.optionalAttrs (stdenv.hostPlatform != stdenv.buildPlatform && !dontAddHostSuffix && (attrs ? name || (attrs ? pname && attrs ? version)))) {
