2024-10-08Set c++ version to c++23Lulu
I followed @pennae's advice and moved the constructor definition of `AttrName` from the header file `nixexpr.hh` to `nixexpr.cc`. Change-Id: I733f56c25635b366b11ba332ccec38dd7444e793
2024-10-08Fix gcc warning -Wmissing-field-initializersLulu
The approach that was taken here was to add default values to the type definitions rather than specify them whenever they are missing. Now the only remaining warning is '-Wunused-parameter' which @jade said is usually counterproductive and that we can just disable it: https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/456#issuecomment-6617 So this change adds the flags '-Wall', '-Wextra' and '-Wno-unused-parameter', so that all warnings are enabled except for '-Wunused-parameter'.

2024-10-01Split ignoreException to avoid suppressing CTRL-CRobert Hensing
This splits `ignoreException` into `ignoreExceptionExceptInterrupt` (which ignores all exceptions except `Interrupt`, which indicates a SIGINT/CTRL-C) and `ignoreExceptionInDestructor` (which ignores all exceptions, so that destructors do not throw exceptions). This prevents many cases where Nix ignores CTRL-C entirely.

2024-09-28libfetchers/git: restore compat with `builtins.fetchGit` from 2.3Maximilian Bosch
Since fb38459d6e58508245553380cccc03c0dbaa1542, each `ref` is appended with `refs/heads` unless it starts with `refs/` already. This regressed two use-cases that worked fine before: * Specifying a commit hash as `ref`: now, if `ref` looks like a commit hash it will be directly passed to `git fetch`. * Specifying a tag without `refs/tags` as prefix: now, the fetcher prepends `refs/*` to a ref that doesn't start with `refs/` and doesn't look like a commit hash. That way, both a branch and a tag specified in `ref` can be fetched. The order of preference in git is * file in `refs/` (e.g. `HEAD`) * file in `refs/tags/` * file in `refs/heads` (i.e. a branch) After fetching `refs/*`, ref is resolved the same way as git does.

2024-09-01repl-overlays: Provide an elaborate exampleRebecca Turner
This is the repl overlay from my dotfiles, which I think provides a reasonable and ergonomic set of variables. We can iterate on this over time, or (perhaps?) provide a sentinel value like `repl-overlays = <DEFAULT>` to include a "suggested default" overlay like this one.

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...

2024-08-26treewide: fix a bunch of lintsJade Lovelace
Fixes: - Identifiers starting with _ are prohibited - Some driveby header dependency cleaning which wound up with doing some extra fixups. - Fucking C style casts, man. C++ made these 1000% worse by letting you also do memory corruption with them with references. - Remove casts to Expr * where ExprBlackHole is an incomplete type by introducing an explicitly-cast eBlackHoleAddr as Expr *. - An incredibly illegal cast of the text bytes of the StorePath hash into a size_t directly. You can't DO THAT. Replaced with actually parsing the hash so we get 100% of the bits being entropy, then memcpying the start of the hash. If this shows up in a profile we should just make the hash parser faster with a lookup table or something sensible like that. - This horrendous bit of UB which I thankfully slapped a deprecation warning on, built, and it didn't trigger anywhere so it was dead code and I just deleted it. But holy crap you *cannot* do that. inline void mkString(const Symbol & s) { mkString(((const std::string &) s).c_str()); } - Some wrong lints. Lots of wrong macro lints, one wrong suspicious-sizeof lint triggered by the template being instantiated with only pointers, but the calculation being correct for both pointers and not-pointers. - Exceptions in destructors strike again. I tried to catch the exceptions that might actually happen rather than all the exceptions imaginable. We can let the runtime hard-kill it on other exceptions imo.

2024-08-21libutil/config: unify path setting typesAlois Wohlschlager
There have been multiple setting types for paths that are supposed to be canonicalised, depending on whether zero or one, one, or any number of paths is to be specified. Naturally, they behaved in slightly different ways in the code. Simplify things by unifying them and removing special behaviour (mainly the "multiple paths type can coerce to boolean" thing).

2024-08-19flake: don't refetch unmodified inputs by recursive followsMaximilian Bosch
Closes #460 I managed to trigger the issue by having the following inputs (shortened): authentik-nix.url = "github:nix-community/authentik-nix"; authentik-nix.inputs.poetry2nix.inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs"; When evaluating this using nix-eval-jobs --flake .#hydraJobs I got the following error: error: cannot update unlocked flake input 'authentik-nix/poetry2nix' in pure mode The issue we have here is that `authentik-nix/poetry2nix` was written into the `overrideMap` which caused Nix to assume it's a new input and tried to refetch it (#460) or errored out in pure mode (nix-eval-jobs / Hydra). The testcase unfortunately only involves checking for the output log and makes sure that something *is* logged on the first fetch so that the test doesn't rot when the logging changes since I didn't manage to trigger the error above with the reproducer from #460. In fact, I only managed to trigger the `cannot update unlocked flake input` error in this context with `nix-eval-jobs`. Change-Id: Ifd00091eec9a0067ed4bb3e5765a15d027328807

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: 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
