This is not a detailed diagnosis, and it's not worth writing one, tbh.
This error basically never happens in normal operation, so diagnosing it
by changing the error on macOS is good enough.

add a reset() method to close the wrapped fd instead of assigning magic
constants. also make the from-fd constructor explicit so you can't
accidentally assign the *wrong* magic constant, or even an unrelated
integer that also just happens to be an fd by pure chance.

This is needed in subsequent commits to allow the settings and CLI args
infrastructure itself to read this setting.

macOS doesn't have user namespacing, so the gid of the builder needs
to be nixbld. The logic got "has sandboxing enabled" confused with
"has user namespaces".
Fixes #7529.
|
|
Unsetting `build-users-group` (without `auto-allocate-uids` enabled)
gives the following error:
```
src/libstore/lock.cc:25: static std::unique_ptr<nix::UserLock> nix::SimpleUserLock::acquire(): Assertion `settings.buildUsersGroup != ""' failed.
```
Fix the logic in `useBuildUsers` and document the default value
for `build-users-group`.

This avoids having the user's gid in the supplementary group list as
well.
|
|
We have to use a gid that has write access to the Nix store.
|
|
The new experimental feature 'cgroups' enables the use of cgroups for
all builds. This allows better containment and enables setting
resource limits and getting some build stats.
|
|
|
|
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).

The manpage for `getgrouplist` says:
> If the number of groups of which user is a member is less than or
> equal to *ngroups, then the value *ngroups is returned.
>
> If the user is a member of more than *ngroups groups, then
> getgrouplist() returns -1. In this case, the value returned in
> *ngroups can be used to resize the buffer passed to a further
> call getgrouplist().
In our original code, however, we allocated a list of size `10` and, if
`getgrouplist` returned `-1` threw an exception. In practice, this
caused the code to fail for any user belonging to more than 10 groups.
While unusual for single-user systems, large companies commonly have a
huge number of POSIX groups users belong to, causing this issue to crop
up and make multi-user Nix unusable in such settings.
The fix is relatively simple, when `getgrouplist` fails, it stores the
real number of GIDs in `ngroups`, so we must resize our list and retry.
Only then, if it errors once more, we can raise an exception.
This should be backported to, at least, 2.9.x.
