This reverts commit f78126bfd6b6c8477fcdbc09b2f98772dbe9a1e7. There
really is no need for such a massive change...

The store parameter "write-nar-listing=1" will cause BinaryCacheStore
to write a file ‘<store-hash>.ls.xz’ for each ‘<store-hash>.narinfo’
added to the binary cache. This file contains an XZ-compressed JSON
file describing the contents of the NAR, excluding the contents of
regular files.
E.g.
{
"version": 1,
"root": {
"type": "directory",
"entries": {
"lib": {
"type": "directory",
"entries": {
"Mcrt1.o": {
"type": "regular",
"size": 1288
},
"Scrt1.o": {
"type": "regular",
"size": 3920
},
}
}
}
...
}
}
(The actual file has no indentation.)
This is intended to speed up the NixOS channels programs index
generator [1], since fetching gazillions of large NARs from
cache.nixos.org is currently a bottleneck for updating the regular
(non-small) channel.

The fact that queryPathInfo() is synchronous meant that we needed a
thread for every concurrent binary cache lookup, even though they end
up being handled by the same download thread. Requiring hundreds of
threads is not a good idea. So now there is an asynchronous version of
queryPathInfo() that takes a callback function to process the
result. Similarly, enqueueDownload() now takes a callback rather than
returning a future.
Thus, a command like
nix path-info --store https://cache.nixos.org/ -r /nix/store/slljrzwmpygy1daay14kjszsr9xix063-nixos-16.09beta231.dccf8c5
that returns 4941 paths now takes 1.87s using only 2 threads (the main
thread and the downloader thread). (This is with a prewarmed
CloudFront.)

This restores the Nix 1.11 behaviour.
|
|
|
|
|
|
As a side effect, this ensures that signatures are propagated when
copying paths between stores.
Also refactored import/export to make use of this.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Other stores don't do this either. It's up to the caller to check
signatures.
|
|
|
|
This prevents copying a partial closure to a binary cache.
|
|
This allows commands like "nix verify --all" or "nix path-info --all"
to work on S3 caches.
Unfortunately, this requires some ugly hackery: when querying the
contents of the bucket, we don't want to have to read every .narinfo
file. But the S3 bucket keys only include the hash part of each store
path, not the name part. So as a special exception
queryAllValidPaths() can now return store paths *without* the name
part, and queryPathInfo() accepts such store paths (returning a
ValidPathInfo object containing the full name).
|
|
|
|
This re-implements the binary cache database in C++, allowing it to be
used by other Store backends, in particular the S3 backend.
|
|
Caching path info is generally useful. For instance, it speeds up "nix
path-info -rS /run/current-system" (i.e. showing the closure sizes of
all paths in the closure of the current system) from 5.6s to 0.15s.
This also eliminates some APIs like Store::queryDeriver() and
Store::queryReferences().
|
|
|
|
This allows readFile() to indicate that a file doesn't exist, and
might eliminate some large string copying.
|
|
|
|
This allows queryPathInfo() to return signatures.
|
|
This allows applying nix-store --verify-path to binary cache stores:
NIX_REMOTE=https://cache.nixos.org nix-store --verify-path /nix/store/s5c7...
|
|
If a path is in the .narinfo cache, obviously it's valid.
|
|
The public key can be derived from the secret key, so there's no need
for the user to supply it separately.
|
|
|
|
This enables an optimisation in hydra-queue-runner, preventing a
download of a NAR it just uploaded to the cache when reading files
like hydra-build-products.
|
|
This is primary to allow hydra-queue-runner to extract files like
"nix-support/hydra-build-products" from NARs in binary caches.
|
|
So now you can do
$ NIX_REMOTE=file:///tmp/binary-cache nix-instantiate '<nixpkgs>' -A hello
and lots of other operations.
|
|
|
|
So you can now do:
$ NIX_REMOTE=file:///tmp/binary-cache nix-store -qR /nix/store/...
