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.)

The inner lambda was returning a SQLite-internal char * rather than a
std::string, leading to Hydra errors liks
Caught exception in Hydra::Controller::Root->narinfo "path âø£â is not in the Nix store at /nix/store/6mvvyb8fgwj23miyal5mdr8ik4ixk15w-hydra-0.1.1234.abcdef/libexec/hydra/lib/Hydra/Controller/Root.pm line 352."

This allows such paths to be imported without signatures.
|
|
This makes it easier to create a diverted store, i.e.
NIX_REMOTE="local?root=/tmp/root"
instead of
NIX_REMOTE="local?real=/tmp/root/nix/store&state=/tmp/root/nix/var/nix" NIX_LOG_DIR=/tmp/root/nix/var/log
|
|
This variable has no reason to exist, given $NIX_STATE_DIR.

This is primarily to subsume the functionality of the
copy-from-other-stores substituter. For example, in the NixOS
installer, we can now do (assuming we're in the target chroot, and the
Nix store of the installation CD is bind-mounted on /tmp/nix):
$ nix-build ... --option substituters 'local?state=/tmp/nix/var&real=/tmp/nix/store'
However, unlike copy-from-other-stores, this also allows write access
to such a store. One application might be fetching substitutes for
/nix/store in a situation where the user doesn't have sufficient
privileges to create /nix, e.g.:
$ NIX_REMOTE="local?state=/home/alice/nix/var&real=/home/alice/nix/store" nix-build ...
|
|
|
|
E.g. "local?store=/tmp/store&state=/tmp/var".
|
|
|
|
|
|
This restores the Nix 1.11 behaviour.
|
|
This is now done in LocalStore::addToStore(), rather than in the
binary cache substituter (which no longer exists).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As a side effect, this ensures that signatures are propagated when
copying paths between stores.
Also refactored import/export to make use of this.
|
|
|
|
This is to allow store-specific configuration,
e.g. s3://my-cache?compression=bzip2&secret-key=/path/to/key.
|
|
Substitution is now simply a Store -> Store copy operation, most
typically from BinaryCacheStore to LocalStore.
|
|
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 feature was implemented for Hydra, but Hydra no longer uses it.
|
|
Necessary for multi-threaded commands like "nix verify-paths".
|
|
Locally-built paths are now signed automatically using the secret keys
specified by the ‘secret-key-files’ option.
|
|
This imports signatures from one store into another. E.g.
$ nix copy-sigs -r /run/current-system -s https://cache.nixos.org/
imported 595 signatures
|
|
These are content-addressed paths or outputs of locally performed
builds. They are trusted even if they don't have signatures, so "nix
verify-paths" won't complain about them.
|
|
In particular, this eliminates a bunch of boilerplate code.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This allows applying nix-store --verify-path to binary cache stores:
NIX_REMOTE=https://cache.nixos.org nix-store --verify-path /nix/store/s5c7...
