2024-01-11Build IFD in the build store when using eval-store.Shea Levy
Previously, IFDs would be built within the eval store, even though one is typically using `--eval-store` precisely to *avoid* local builds. Because the resulting Nix expression must be copied back to the eval store in order to be imported, this requires the eval store to trust the build store's signatures.

2023-09-07Allow dynamic derivation deps in `inputDrvs`John Ericson
We use the same nested map representation we used for goals, again in order to save space. We might someday want to combine with `inputDrvs`, by doing `V = bool` instead of `V = std::set<OutputName>`, but we are not doing that yet for sake of a smaller diff. The ATerm format for Derivations also needs to be extended, in addition to the in-memory format. To accomodate this, we added a new basic versioning scheme, so old versions of Nix will get nice errors. (And going forward, if the ATerm format changes again the errors will be even better.) `parsedStrings`, an internal function used as part of parsing derivations in A-Term format, used to consume the final `]` but expect the initial `[` to already be consumed. This made for what looked like unbalanced brackets at callsites, which was confusing. Now it consumes both which is hopefully less confusing. As part of testing, we also created a unit test for the A-Term format for regular non-experimental derivations too.

2023-08-18Fixing #7479John Ericson
Types converted: - `NixStringContextElem` - `OutputsSpec` - `ExtendedOutputsSpec` - `DerivationOutput` - `DerivationType` Existing ones mostly conforming the pattern cleaned up: - `ContentAddressMethod` - `ContentAddressWithReferences` The `DerivationGoal::derivationType` field had a bogus initialization, now caught, so I made it `std::optional`. I think #8829 can make it non-optional again because it will ensure we always have the derivation when we construct a `DerivationGoal`. See that issue (#7479) for details on the general goal. `git grep 'Raw::Raw'` indicates the two types I didn't yet convert `DerivedPath` and `BuiltPath` (and their `Single` variants) . This is because @roberth and I (can't find issue right now...) plan on reworking them somewhat, so I didn't want to churn them more just yet. Co-authored-by: Eelco Dolstra <edolstra@gmail.com>
2023-08-14Create `outputOf` primop.John Ericson
In the Nix language, given a drv path, we should be able to construct another string referencing to one of its output. We can do this today with `(import drvPath).output`, but this only works for derivations we already have. With dynamic derivations, however, that doesn't work well because the `drvPath` isn't yet built: importing it like would need to trigger IFD, when the whole point of this feature is to do "dynamic build graph" without IFD! Instead, what we want to do is create a placeholder value with the right string context to refer to the output of the as-yet unbuilt derivation. A new primop in the language, analogous to `builtins.placeholder` can be used to create one. This will achieve all the right properties. The placeholder machinery also will match out the `outPath` attribute for CA derivations works. In 60b7121d2c6d4322b7c2e8e7acfec7b701b2d3a1 we added that type of placeholder, and the derived path and string holder changes necessary to support it. Then in the previous commit we cleaned up the code (inspiration finally hit me!) to deduplicate the code and expose exactly what we need. Now, we can wire up the primop trivally!

2023-08-14Rework evaluator `SingleDerivedPath` infraJohn Ericson
`EvalState::mkSingleDerivedPathString` previously contained its own inverse (printing, rather than parsing) in order to validate what was parsed. Now that is pulled out into its own separate function: `EvalState::coerceToSingleDerivedPath`. In additional that pulled out logic is deduplicated with `EvalState::mkOutputString` via `EvalState::mkOutputStringRaw`, which is itself deduplicated (and generalized) with `DownstreamPlaceholder::mkOutputStringRaw`. All these changes make the unit tests simpler. (We would ideally write more unit tests for `mkSingleDerivedPathString` `coerceToSingleDerivedPath` directly, but we cannot yet do that because the IO in reading the store path won't work when the dummy store cannot hold anything. Someday we'll have a proper in-memory store which will work for this.) Co-authored-by: Robert Hensing <roberth@users.noreply.github.com>
2023-08-10Make the Derived Path family of types inductive for dynamic derivationsJohn Ericson
We want to be able to write down `foo.drv^bar.drv^baz`: `foo.drv^bar.drv` is the dynamic derivation (since it is itself a derivation output, `bar.drv` from `foo.drv`). To that end, we create `Single{Derivation,BuiltPath}` types, that are very similar except instead of having multiple outputs (in a set or map), they have a single one. This is for everything to the left of the rightmost `^`. `NixStringContextElem` has an analogous change, and now can reuse `SingleDerivedPath` at the top level. In fact, if we ever get rid of `DrvDeep`, `NixStringContextElem` could be replaced with `SingleDerivedPath` entirely! Important note: some JSON formats have changed. We already can *produce* dynamic derivations, but we can't refer to them directly. Today, we can merely express building or example at the top imperatively over time by building `foo.drv^bar.drv`, and then with a second nix invocation doing `<result-from-first>^baz`, but this is not declarative. The ethos of Nix of being able to write down the full plan everything you want to do, and then execute than plan with a single command, and for that we need the new inductive form of these types.

2023-07-07Simplify `ContentAddress`John Ericson
Whereas `ContentAddressWithReferences` is a sum type complex because different varieties support different notions of reference, and `ContentAddressMethod` is a nested enum to support that, `ContentAddress` can be a simple pair of a method and hash. `ContentAddress` does not need to be a sum type on the outside because the choice of method doesn't effect what type of hashes we can use.

2023-06-23Use a struct not `std::pair` for `SearchPathElem`John Ericson
I got very confused trying to keep all the `first` and `second` straight reading the code, *especially* as there is also another `(boolean, string)` pair type also being used. Named fields is much better. There are other cleanups that we can do (for example, the existing TODO), but we can do them later. Doing them now would just make this harder to review.

2023-05-25primops: lazy evaluation of replaceStrings replacementspolykernel
The primop `builtins.replaceStrings` currently always strictly evaluates the replacement strings, however time and space are wasted for their computation if the corresponding pattern do not occur in the input string. This commit makes the evaluation of the replacement strings lazy by deferring their evaluation to when the corresponding pattern are matched and memoize the result for efficient retrieval on subsequent matches. The testcases for replaceStrings was updated to check for lazy evaluation of the replacements. A note was also added in the release notes to document the behavior change.

2023-04-21Use `std::set<StringContextElem>` not `PathSet` for string contextsJohn Ericson
Motivation `PathSet` is not correct because string contexts have other forms (`Built` and `DrvDeep`) that are not rendered as plain store paths. Instead of wrongly using `PathSet`, or "stringly typed" using `StringSet`, use `std::std<StringContextElem>`. ----- In support of this change, `NixStringContext` is now defined as `std::std<StringContextElem>` not `std:vector<StringContextElem>`. The old definition was just used by a `getContext` method which was only used by the eval cache. It can be deleted altogether since the types are now unified and the preexisting `copyContext` function already suffices. Summarizing the previous paragraph: Old: - `value/context.hh`: `NixStringContext = std::vector<StringContextElem>` - `value.hh`: `NixStringContext Value::getContext(...)` - `value.hh`: `copyContext(...)` New: - `value/context.hh`: `NixStringContext = std::set<StringContextElem>` - `value.hh`: `copyContext(...)` ---- The string representation of string context elements no longer contains the store dir. The diff of `src/libexpr/tests/value/context.cc` should make clear what the new representation is, so we recommend reviewing that file first. This was done for two reasons: Less API churn: `Value::mkString` and friends did not take a `Store` before. But if `NixStringContextElem::{parse, to_string}` *do* take a store (as they did before), then we cannot have the `Value` functions use them (in order to work with the fully-structured `NixStringContext`) without adding that argument. That would have been a lot of churn of threading the store, and this diff is already large enough, so the easier and less invasive thing to do was simply make the element `parse` and `to_string` functions not take the `Store` reference, and the easiest way to do that was to simply drop the store dir. Space usage: Dropping the `/nix/store/` (or similar) from the internal representation will safe space in the heap of the Nix programming being interpreted. If the heap contains many strings with non-trivial contexts, the saving could add up to something significant. ---- The eval cache version is bumped. The eval cache serialization uses `NixStringContextElem::{parse, to_string}`, and since those functions are changed per the above, that means the on-disk representation is also changed. This is simply done by changing the name of the used for the eval cache from `eval-cache-v4` to eval-cache-v5`. ---- To avoid some duplication `EvalCache::mkPathString` is added to abstract over the simple case of turning a store path to a string with just that string in the context. Context This PR picks up where #7543 left off. That one introduced the fully structured `NixStringContextElem` data type, but kept `PathSet context` as an awkward middle ground between internal `char[][]` interpreter heap string contexts and `NixStringContext` fully parsed string contexts. The infelicity of `PathSet context` was specifically called out during Nix team group review, but it was agreeing that fixing it could be left as future work. This is that future work. A possible follow-up step would be to get rid of the `char[][]` evaluator heap representation, too, but it is not yet clear how to do that. To use `NixStringContextElem` there we would need to get the STL containers to GC pointers in the GC build, and I am not sure how to do that. ---- PR #7543 effectively is writing the inverse of a `mkPathString`, `mkOutputString`, and one more such function for the `DrvDeep` case. I would like that PR to have property tests ensuring it is actually the inverse as expected. This PR sets things up nicely so that reworking that PR to be in that more elegant and better tested way is possible.

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.)
