2020-04-09	gc.cc: Ignore hidden files in temproots	Philipp Middendorf

2020-02-28	Fix GC failures on bad store path names	Eelco Dolstra
	It failed on names like '/nix/store/9ip48nkc9rfy0a4yaw98lp6gipqlib1a-'.
2020-01-05	build: fix sandboxing on darwin	Daiderd Jordan
	Starting ba87b08f8529e4d9f8c58d8c625152058ceadb75 getEnv now returns an std::optional which means these getEnv() != "" conditions no longer happen if the variables are not defined.
2019-12-10	Make the Store API more type-safe	Eelco Dolstra
	Most functions now take a StorePath argument rather than a Path (which is just an alias for std::string). The StorePath constructor ensures that the path is syntactically correct (i.e. it looks like <store-dir>/<base32-hash>-<name>). Similarly, functions like buildPaths() now take a StorePathWithOutputs, rather than abusing Path by adding a '!<outputs>' suffix. Note that the StorePath type is implemented in Rust. This involves some hackery to allow Rust values to be used directly in C++, via a helper type whose destructor calls the Rust type's drop() function. The main issue is the dynamic nature of C++ move semantics: after we have moved a Rust value, we should not call the drop function on the original value. So when we move a value, we set the original value to bitwise zero, and the destructor only calls drop() if the value is not bitwise zero. This should be sufficient for most types. Also lots of minor cleanups to the C++ API to make it more modern (e.g. using std::optional and std::string_view in some places).
2019-11-22	getEnv(): Return std::optional	Eelco Dolstra
	This allows distinguishing between an empty value and no value.
2019-09-30	Merge pull request #2338 from bobvanderlinden/pr-cannot-delete-alive-why	Domen Kožar
	mention `nix-store --query --roots` when a path cannot be deleted
2019-08-29	Don't rely on st_blocks	Eelco Dolstra
	It doesn't seem very reliable on ZFS.
2019-08-29	Cleanup	Eelco Dolstra

2019-08-02	Simplify	Eelco Dolstra
	With BSD locks we don't have to guard against reading our own temproots.
2019-08-02	Use BSD instead of POSIX file locks	Eelco Dolstra
	POSIX file locks are essentially incompatible with multithreading. BSD locks have much saner semantics. We need this now that there can be multiple concurrent LocalStore::buildPaths() invocations.
2019-08-02	Add a test for auto-GC	Eelco Dolstra
	This currently fails because we're using POSIX file locks. So when the garbage collector opens and closes its own temproots file, it causes the lock to be released and then deleted by another GC instance.
2019-07-30	Disable findRuntimeRoots on darwin when running tests because lsof is slow	Bas van Dijk
	See: https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/3011
2019-04-30	findRootsNoTemp: fixes comment about findRuntimeRoots	Samuel Dionne-Riel
	The NIX_ROOT_FINDER environment variable was removed in 3c46fe62b833a4e66845665edc99555022d3d98c when porting from perl to C.
2019-03-14	findRoots(): Add 'censor' parameter	Eelco Dolstra
	This is less brittle than filtering paths after the fact in nix-daemon.
2019-03-14	findRuntimeRoots: Simplify/fix handling of /proc files	Eelco Dolstra
	Scanning of /proc/<pid>/{exe,cwd} was broken because '{memory:' was prepended twice. Also, get rid of the whole '{memory:...}' thing because it's unnecessary, we can just list the file in /proc directly.
2019-03-10	Unify internal findRootsXxx() api	Guillaume Maudoux

2019-03-10	Make roots a map of store paths to pinning links	Guillaume Maudoux
	This new structure makes more sense as there may be many sources rooting the same store path. Many profiles can reference the same path but this is even more true with /proc/<pid>/maps where distinct pids can and often do map the same store path. This implementation is also more efficient as the `Roots` map contains only one entry per rooted store path.
2019-03-10	Obfuscate memory roots for non-root users	Guillaume Maudoux

2019-03-10	detail memory roots	Guillaume Maudoux

2018-08-08	mention nix-store --query --roots when a path cannot be deleted	Bob van der Linden

2018-06-18	Merge pull request #2234 from symphorien/esrch2	Eelco Dolstra
	libstore/gc.cc: ignore ESRCH when reading symlinks in /proc
2018-06-16	libstore/gc.cc: ignore ESRCH when reading symlinks in /proc	Symphorien Gibol
	readlink is also affected by the problem fixed for regular files in c567afe355df
2018-06-13	std::random_shuffle -> std::shuffle	Eelco Dolstra
	The former is removed in C++17.
2018-06-11	libstore/gc.cc: ignore ESRCH when reading /proc	Symphorien Gibol
	If a process disappears between the time /proc/[pid]/maps is opened and the time it is read, the read() syscall will return ESRCH. This should be ignored.
2018-03-06	rand() -> random(), since we use srandom().	Will Dietz
	rand() requires we call srand() instead, but might as well use random().
2018-02-01	Remove obsolete references to manifests	Eelco Dolstra
	Closes #323.
2017-09-14	Show the pid of temporary roots	Eelco Dolstra

2017-09-14	nix-store -q --roots / --gc --print-roots: Print temporary / in-memory roots	Eelco Dolstra
	For example, $ nix-store -q --roots /nix/store/7phd2sav7068nivgvmj2vpm3v47fd27l-patchelf-0.8pre845_0315148 {temp:1} denotes that the path is only being kept alive by a temporary root (i.e. /nix/var/nix/temproots/). Similarly, $ nix-store --gc --print-roots ... {memory:9} -> /nix/store/094gpjn9f15ip17wzxhma4r51nvsj17p-curl-7.53.1 shows that curl is being used by some process.
2017-09-06	Fix abort when the GC thread gets an exception	Eelco Dolstra

2017-09-05	Add automatic garbage collection	Eelco Dolstra
	Nix can now automatically run the garbage collector during builds or while adding paths to the store. The option "min-free = <bytes>" specifies that Nix should run the garbage collector whenever free space in the Nix store drops below <bytes>. It will then delete garbage until "max-free" bytes are available. Garbage collection during builds is asynchronous; running builds are not paused and new builds are not blocked. However, there also is a synchronous GC run prior to the first build/substitution. Currently, no old GC roots are deleted (as in "nix-collect-garbage -d").
2017-09-05	GC: Don't delete own temproots file	Eelco Dolstra
	Since file locks are per-process rather than per-file-descriptor, the garbage collector would always acquire a lock on its own temproots file and conclude that it's stale.
2017-08-31	Rename a few configuration options	Eelco Dolstra
	In particular, drop the "build-" and "gc-" prefixes which are pointless. So now you can say nix build --no-sandbox instead of nix build --no-build-use-sandbox
2017-07-30	Replace Unicode quotes in user-facing strings by ASCII	Jörg Thalheim
	Relevant RFC: NixOS/rfcs#4 $ ag -l \| xargs sed -i -e "/\"/s/’/'/g;/\"/s/‘/'/g"
2017-07-04	Support base-64 hashes	Eelco Dolstra
	Also simplify the Hash API. Fixes #1437.

2017-04-24	Remove debug statement	Eelco Dolstra

2017-04-20	Detect lsof	Eelco Dolstra
	Also, don't use lsof on Linux since it's not needed. Fixes #1328.
