These stack traces kind of suck for the reasons mentioned on the
CppTrace page here (no symbols for inline functions is a major one):
https://github.com/jeremy-rifkin/cpptrace
I would consider using CppTrace if it were packaged, but to be honest, I
think that the more reasonable option is actually to move entirely to
out-of-process crash handling and symbolization.
The reason for this is that if you want to generate anything of
substance on SIGSEGV or really any deadly signal, you are stuck in
async-signal-safe land, which is not a place to be trying to run a
symbolizer. LLVM does it anyway, probably carefully, and chromium *can*
do it on debug builds but in general uses crashpad:
https://source.chromium.org/chromium/chromium/src/+/main:base/debug/stack_trace_posix.cc;l=974;drc=82dff63dbf9db05e9274e11d9128af7b9f51ceaa;bpv=1;bpt=1
However, some stack traces are better than *no* stack traces when we get
mystery exceptions falling out the bottom of the program. I've also
promoted the path for "mystery exceptions falling out the bottom of the
program" to hard crash and generate a core dump because although there's
been some months since the last one of these, these are nonetheless
always *atrociously* diagnosed.
We can't improve the crash handling further until either we use Crashpad
(which involves more C++ deps, no thanks) or we put in the ostensibly
work in progress Rust minidump infrastructure, in which case we need to
finish full support for Rust in libutil first.
Sample report:
Lix crashed. This is a bug. We would appreciate if you report it at https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues with the following information included:
Exception: std::runtime_error: lol

The JSON serialisation should be declared in the header so that all translation
units can see it when needed, even though it seems that it has not been used
anywhere else so far. Unfortunately, this means we cannot use the
NLOHMANN_JSON_SERIALIZE_ENUM convenience macro, since it uses a slightly
different signature, but the code is not too bad either.

This is a squash of upstream PRs #10303, #10312 and #10883.
fix: Treat empty TMPDIR as unset
Fixes an instance of
nix: src/libutil/util.cc:139: nix::Path nix::canonPath(PathView, bool): Assertion `path != ""' failed.
... which I've been getting in one of my shells for some reason.
I have yet to find out why TMPDIR was empty, but it's no reason for
Nix to break.

Because of an objc quirk[1], calling curl_global_init for the first time
after fork() will always result in a crash.
Up until now the solution has been to set
OBJC_DISABLE_INITIALIZE_FORK_SAFETY for every nix process to ignore
that error.
This is less than ideal because we were setting it in package.nix,
which meant that running nix tests locally would fail because
that variable was not set.
Instead of working around that error we address it at the core -
by calling curl_global_init inside initLibStore, which should mean
curl will already have been initialized by the time we try to do so in
a forked process.

within lix itself this problem is caught by the test suite. outside of
lix itself three cases can be had: either the problem is fully inside
lix libs, fully inside user code, or it exists at the boundary. the
first is caught by the test suite, the second isn't caught at all, and
the third is something lix should not be responsible for.

These now have equivalents in the standard lib in C++20. This change was
performed with a custom clang-tidy check which I will submit later.
Executed like so:
ninja -C build && run-clang-tidy -checks='-*,nix-*' -load=build/libnix-clang-tidy.so -p .. -fix ../tests | tee -a clang-tidy-result

It happens with some frequency that plugins that might be unimportant to
the evaluation at hand mismatch with the nix version, leading to
spurious load failures. Let's make these non fatal.

Rather than doing `allowEmpty` as boolean, have separate types and use
`std::optional`. This makes it harder to forget the possibility of an
empty path.
The `build-hook` setting was categorized as a `PathSetting`, but
actually it was split into arguments. No good! Now, it is
`Setting<Strings>` which actually reflects what it means and how it is
used.
Because of the subtyping, we now also have support for
`Setting<std::optional<String>>` in general. I imagine this can be used
to clean up many more settings also.

A library shouldn't require changes to the caller's argument handling,
especially if it doesn't have to, and indeed we don't have to.
This changes the lookup order to prioritize the hardcoded path to nix
if it exists. The static executable still finds itself through /proc
and the like.
|
|
|
|
This does pathExists on various paths, which crashes on EPERM in the
macOS sandbox.

Issues:
1. Features gated on disabled experimental settings should warn and be
ignored, not silently succeed.
2. Experimental settings in the same config "batch" (file or env var)
as the enabling of the experimental feature should work.
3. For (2), the order should not matter.
These are analogous to the issues @roberth caught with my changes for
arg handling, but they are instead for config handling.

libutil is a dependency of libstore, so it should always be
initialized as such.
libutil is also a dependency of libmain. Being explicit about this
dependency might be good, but not worth the slight code complexity
until the library structure gets more advanced.
Part of an effort to make it easier to initialize the right things,
by moving code into the appropriate libraries.
|

This code is bad. We shouldn't unset variables in programs whose
children may need them. Fixing one issue at a time, so postponing.

It is required for the sandbox, which is a libstore responsibility;
not just libmain.

Using libstore without loading the config file is risky, as sqlite
may then be misconfigured. See https://github.com/cachix/cachix/issues/475

Add a setting for configuring the SSL certificates file
|
|
This is needed in subsequent commits to allow the settings and CLI args
infrastructure itself to read this setting.
|
|
This provides a platform-independent way to configure the SSL
certificates file in the Nix daemon. Previously we provided
instructions for overriding the environment variable in launchd, but
that obviously doesn't work with systemd. Now we can just tell users
to add
ssl-cert-file = /etc/ssl/my-certificate-bundle.crt
to their nix.conf.
|
|
We make sure the env var paths are actually set (ie. not "") before
sending them to the canonicalization function. If we forget to do so,
the user will end up facing a puzzled failed assertion internal error.
We issue a non-failing warning as a stop-gap measure. We could want to
revisit this to issue a detailed failing error message in the future.

Proposal: Use C++20
|
|
Prevent bugs like https://github.com/cachix/cachix/pull/477
|

Cgroups are now only used for derivations that require the uid-range
range feature. This allows auto UID allocation even on systems that
don't have cgroups (like macOS).
Also, make things work on modern systems that use cgroups v2 (where
there is a single hierarchy and no "systemd" controller).
|
|
|
|
We haven't parsed the '-v' command line flags yet when this code executes,
so we can't actually get debug output here.

Turns out that one of those *.plist files can exist even if Rosetta is
not installed. So let's just try to run an x86_64-darwin binary
directly.

By default, Nix sets the "cores" setting to the number of CPUs which are
physically present on the machine. If cgroups are used to limit the CPU
and memory consumption of a large Nix build, the OOM killer may be
invoked.
For example, consider a GitLab CI pipeline which builds a large software
package. The GitLab runner spawns a container whose CPU is limited to 4
cores and whose memory is limited to 16 GiB. If the underlying machine
has 64 cores, Nix will invoke the build with -j64. In many cases, that
level of parallelism will invoke the OOM killer and the build will
completely fail.
This change sets the default value of "cores" to be
ceil(cpu_quota / cpu_period), with a fallback to
std::thread::hardware_concurrency() if cgroups v2 is not detected.
|
|
|
|
'build-remote' is now executed via /proc/self/exe so it always works.
|
|
Also use std::string_view in a few more places.
|
|
|
|
Rather than having them plain strings scattered through the whole
codebase, create an enum containing all the known experimental features.
This means that
- Nix can now `warn` when an unkwown experimental feature is passed
(making it much nicer to spot typos and spot deprecated features)
- It’s now easy to remove a feature altogether (once the feature isn’t
experimental anymore or is dropped) by just removing the field for the
enum and letting the compiler point us to all the now invalid usages
of it.
