2024-08-08tree-wide: fix a pile of lintsJade Lovelace
This: - Converts a bunch of C style casts into C++ casts. - Removes some very silly pointer subtraction code (which is no more or less busted on i686 than it began) - Fixes some "technically UB" that never had to be UB in the first place. - Makes finally follow the noexcept status of the inner function. Maybe in the future we should ban the function from not being noexcept, but that is not today. - Makes various locally-used exceptions inherit from std::exception.

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.

2024-08-01Reapply "libfetchers: make attribute / URL query handling consistent"Maximilian Bosch
The original attempt at this introduced a regression; this commit reverts the revert and fixes the regression. This reverts commit 3e151d4d77b5296b9da8c3ad209932d1dfa44c68. Fix to the regression: flakeref: fix handling of `?dir=` param for flakes in subdirs As reported in #419[1], accessing a flake in a subdir of a Git repository fails with the previous commit[2] applied with the error error: unsupported Git input attribute 'dir' The problem is that the `dir`-param is inserted into the parsed URL if a flake is fetched from the subdir of a Git repository. However, for the fetching part this isn't even needed. The fix is to just pass `subdir` as second argument to `FlakeRef` (which needs a `basedir` that can be empty) and leave the parsedURL as-is. Added a regression test to make sure we don't run into this again.

2024-07-18libexpr/print: do not show elided nested items when there are noneAlois Wohlschlager
When the configured maximum depth has been reached, attribute sets and lists are printed with ellipsis to indicate the elision of nested items. Previously, this happened even in case the structure being printed is empty, so that such items do not in fact exist. This is confusing, so stop doing it.

2024-07-18libexpr/print: never show empty attrsets or derivations as «repeated»Alois Wohlschlager
The repeated value detection logic exists so that the occurrence of large common substructures does not fill up the screen or the computer's memory. However, empty attribute sets and derivations (when their detection is enabled) are always cheap to print, and in practice I have observed them to make up a significant majority of the cases where I was annoyed by the repeated value detection kicking in. Furthermore, `nix-instantiate --eval` already disables this logic for empty attribute sets, and empty lists are already exempted everywhere. For these reasons, always print empty attribute sets and derivations as what they are. Change-Id: I5dac8e7739f9d726b76fd0521ec46f38af94463f
2024-07-18libexpr/print: pretty-print idempotentlyAlois Wohlschlager
When pretty-printing is enabled, previously an unforced thunk would trigger indentation, even when it subsequently does not evaluate to a nested structure. The resulting output looked inconsistent, and furthermore pretty-printing was not idempotent (since pretty-printing the same value again, which is now fully evaluated, will not trigger indentation). When strict evaluation is enabled, force the item before inspecting its type, so that it is properly known whether it contains a nested structure. Furthermore, there is no need to cause indentation for unforced thunks, since the very next operation will be printing them as `«thunk»`. This is mostly a port of https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/11100 , but we only force the item when it's going to be forced anyway due to strict pretty-printing, and a new test was written since the REPL testing framework in Lix is different.

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
2024-07-12Use std::strong_ordering for version comparisonJade Lovelace
The actual motive here is the avoidance of integer overflow if we were to make these use checked NixInts and retain the subtraction. However, the actual *intent* of this code is a three-way comparison, which can be done with operator<=>, so we should just do *that* instead. Change-Id: I7f9a7da1f3176424b528af6d1b4f1591e4ab26bf

We previously allowed you to map any flake URL to any other flake URL, including shorthand flakerefs, indirect flake URLs like `flake:nixpkgs`, direct flake URLs like `github:NixOS/nixpkgs`, or local paths. But flake registry entries mapping from direct flake URLs often come from swapping the 'from' and 'to' arguments by accident, and even when created intentionally, they may not actually work correctly. This patch rejects those URLs (and fully-qualified flake: URLs), making it harder to swap the arguments by accident. Fixes #181. Change-Id: I24713643a534166c052719b8770a4edfcfdb8cf3
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.
