2017-02-08	Include config.h implicitly with '-include config.h' in CFLAGS	Tuomas Tynkkynen
	Because config.h can #define things like _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 and not every compilation unit includes config.h, we currently compile half of Nix with _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 and other half with _FILE_OFFSET_BITS unset. This causes major havoc with the Settings class on e.g. 32-bit ARM, where different compilation units disagree with the struct layout. E.g.: diff --git a/src/libstore/globals.cc b/src/libstore/globals.cc @@ -166,6 +166,8 @@ void Settings::update() _get(useSubstitutes, "build-use-substitutes"); + fprintf(stderr, "at Settings::update(): &useSubstitutes = %p\n", &nix::settings.useSubstitutes); _get(buildUsersGroup, "build-users-group"); diff --git a/src/libstore/remote-store.cc b/src/libstore/remote-store.cc +++ b/src/libstore/remote-store.cc @@ -138,6 +138,8 @@ void RemoteStore::initConnection(Connection & conn) void RemoteStore::setOptions(Connection & conn) { + fprintf(stderr, "at RemoteStore::setOptions(): &useSubstitutes = %p\n", &nix::settings.useSubstitutes); conn.to << wopSetOptions Gave me: at Settings::update(): &useSubstitutes = 0xb6e5c5cb at RemoteStore::setOptions(): &useSubstitutes = 0xb6e5c5c7 That was not a fun one to debug!
2017-02-01	Restore default signal handling in child processes	Eelco Dolstra
	In particular, this fixes Ctrl-C in nix-shell sessions.
2017-01-26	Fix interrupt handling	Eelco Dolstra

2017-01-19	Kill builds when we get EOF on the log FD	Eelco Dolstra
	This closes a long-time bug that allowed builds to hang Nix indefinitely (regardless of timeouts) simply by doing exec > /dev/null 2>&1; while true; do true; done Now, on EOF, we just send SIGKILL to the child to make sure it's really gone.
2017-01-17	Handle SIGINT etc. via a sigwait() signal handler thread	Eelco Dolstra
	This allows other threads to install callbacks that run in a regular, non-signal context. In particular, we can use this to signal the downloader thread to quit. Closes #1183.
2016-11-26	Revert "Get rid of unicode quotes (#1140)"	Eelco Dolstra
	This reverts commit f78126bfd6b6c8477fcdbc09b2f98772dbe9a1e7. There really is no need for such a massive change...
2016-11-25	Get rid of unicode quotes (#1140)	Guillaume Maudoux

2016-09-21	printMsg(lvlError, ...) -> printError(...) etc.	Eelco Dolstra

2016-08-10	Remove $NIX_DB_DIR	Eelco Dolstra
	This variable has no reason to exist, given $NIX_STATE_DIR.
2016-07-11	Modernize AutoCloseFD	Shea Levy

2016-04-25	Show the log tail when a build fails	Eelco Dolstra
	If --no-build-output is given (which will become the default for the "nix" command at least), show the last 10 lines of the build output if the build fails.
2016-04-25	Remove --print-build-trace	Eelco Dolstra
	This was added to support Hydra, but Hydra no longer uses it.
2016-04-25	Improved logging abstraction	Eelco Dolstra
	This also gets rid of --log-type, since the nested log type isn't useful in a multi-threaded situation, and nobody cares about the "pretty" log type.
2016-03-29	Improve SIGINT handling in multi-threaded programs	Eelco Dolstra
	The flag remembering whether an Interrupted exception was thrown is now thread-local. Thus, all threads will (eventually) throw Interrupted. Previously, one thread would throw Interrupted, and then the other threads wouldn't see that they were supposed to quit.
2016-03-29	Re-enable sync_with_stdio	Eelco Dolstra
	Otherwise writing to std::cerr is not thread-safe (in particular, lines will be randomly duplicated).
2016-02-25	Merge branch 'master' into new-cli	Eelco Dolstra

2016-02-23	Pool<T>: Allow a maximum pool size	Eelco Dolstra

2016-02-22	Make OpenSSL usage thread-safe	Eelco Dolstra
	OpenSSL can randomly segfault unless we register a callback function to do locking. https://www.openssl.org/docs/manmaster/crypto/threads.html
2016-02-09	New command line parsing infrastructure	Eelco Dolstra

2016-02-04	StoreAPI -> Store	Eelco Dolstra
	Calling a class an API is a bit redundant...
2016-02-04	Eliminate the "store" global variable	Eelco Dolstra
	Also, move a few free-standing functions into StoreAPI and Derivation. Also, introduce a non-nullable smart pointer, ref<T>, which is just a wrapper around std::shared_ptr ensuring that the pointer is never null. (For reference-counted values, this is better than passing a "T&", because the latter doesn't maintain the refcount. Usually, the caller will have a shared_ptr keeping the value alive, but that's not always the case, e.g., when passing a reference to a std::thread via std::bind.)
2016-01-28	printMissing(): Propagate store argument	Eelco Dolstra

2015-07-23	--version: Print some config info	Eelco Dolstra
	Such as whether Nix is built with signed binary cache support, and the location of the configuration file.
2015-07-20	Support systemd log severity prefixes	Eelco Dolstra
	This is mostly useful for hydra-queue-runner.
2015-05-21	nix-collect-garbage: Call collectGarbage() internally	Eelco Dolstra

2015-01-02	Allow $NIX_PAGER to override $PAGER	Eelco Dolstra

2014-12-14	Pedantry	Eelco Dolstra

2014-12-14	Merge branch 'cygwin-master' of https://github.com/ternaris/nix	Eelco Dolstra

2014-12-12	Don't abort if we get a signal while waiting for the pager	Eelco Dolstra

2014-12-10	Provide default pagers	Eelco Dolstra
	Borrowed from systemd.
2014-12-10	Revert "Use posix_spawn to run the pager"	Eelco Dolstra
	This reverts commit d34d2b2bbf784c0bb420a50905af25e02c6e4989.
2014-12-09	Explicitly include required C headers	Marko Durkovic

2014-12-05	Define ‘environ’	Eelco Dolstra
	http://hydra.nixos.org/build/17690555
2014-12-05	Use posix_spawn to run the pager	Eelco Dolstra
	In low memory environments, "nix-env -qa" failed because the fork to run the pager hit the kernel's overcommit limits. Using posix_spawn gets around this. (Actually, you have to use posix_spawn with the undocumented POSIX_SPAWN_USEVFORK flag, otherwise it just uses fork/exec...)
2014-10-14	Remove redundant space in usage errors	Eelco Dolstra

2014-09-26	printMissing(): Print derivations in approximate build order	Eelco Dolstra

2014-08-20	Flush std::cout before closing stdout	Eelco Dolstra

2014-08-20	Provide reasonable default flags for $LESS	Eelco Dolstra
	Borrowed from systemd.
2014-08-20	Use proper quotes everywhere	Eelco Dolstra

2014-08-20	Add some color	Eelco Dolstra

2014-08-20	nix-store -l: Automatically pipe output into $PAGER	Eelco Dolstra

2014-08-13	Handle compound single dash options properly	Eelco Dolstra
	So now nix-instantiate --eval -E '{x}: x' --argstr x -xyzzy correctly prints "-xyzzy", rather than giving an error. Issue NixOS/hydra#176.
2014-08-13	Refactor option handling	Eelco Dolstra

2014-08-13	Remove pointless NIX_LOG_TYPE environment variable	Eelco Dolstra

2014-07-31	Restore default SIGPIPE handler before invoking ‘man’	Eelco Dolstra
	Fixes NixOS/nixpkgs#3410.
2014-05-23	Ugly hack to allow --argstr values starting with a dash	Eelco Dolstra
	Fixes #265.
2014-03-29	restoreSIGPIPE(): Fill in sa_mask	Eelco Dolstra
	Issue #231.
2014-02-08	Add download-via-ssh substituter	Shea Levy
	This substituter connects to a remote host, runs nix-store --serve there, and then forwards substituter commands on to the remote host and sends their results to the calling program. The ssh-substituter-hosts option can be specified as a list of hosts to try. This is an initial implementation and, while it works, it has some limitations: * Only the first host is used * There is no caching of query results (all queries are sent to the remote machine) * There is no informative output (such as progress bars) * Some failure modes may cause unhelpful error messages * There is no concept of trusted-ssh-substituter-hosts Signed-off-by: Shea Levy <shea@shealevy.com>
