2018-05-30Make 'nix copy --to daemon' run in constant memory (daemon side)Eelco Dolstra
Continuation of 97002b684c902dadcd351a67208f9c2a88ff8f8f. This makes the daemon use constant memory. For example, it reduces the daemon's maximum RSS on $ nix copy --from ~/my-nix --to daemon /nix/store/1n7x0yv8vq6zi90hfmian84vdhd04bgp-blender-2.79a from 264 MiB to 7 MiB. We now use a TunnelSource to prevent the connection from ending up in an undefined state if an exception is thrown while the NAR is being sent. Issue https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/1681.
2017-08-28Don't send progress messages to older clientsEelco Dolstra
2017-08-28Tunnel progress messages from the daemon to the clientEelco Dolstra
This makes the progress bar work for non-root users.
2017-04-06Implement RemoteStore::queryMissing()Eelco Dolstra
This provides a significant speedup, e.g. 64 s -> 12 s for nix-build --dry-run -I nixpkgs=channel:nixos-16.03 '<nixpkgs/nixos/tests/misc.nix>' -A test on a cold local and CloudFront cache. The alternative is to use lots of concurrent daemon connections but that seems wasteful.

2016-09-02Implement nar-based addToStore for remote-storeShea Levy

2016-06-01Make the store directory a member variable of StoreEelco Dolstra
2016-05-04Add a Store::addToStore() variant that accepts a NAREelco Dolstra
As a side effect, this ensures that signatures are propagated when copying paths between stores. Also refactored import/export to make use of this.
2016-04-20RemoteStore: Propagate InvalidPath exceptions from the daemonEelco Dolstra
2016-04-19Move path info caching from BinaryCacheStore to StoreEelco Dolstra
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().
2016-04-05Add "nix copy-sigs" commandEelco Dolstra
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
2016-03-30LocalStore: Keep track of ultimately trusted pathsEelco Dolstra
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.

2015-06-02Add a ‘verifyStore’ RPCLudovic Courtès
Hello! The patch below adds a ‘verifyStore’ RPC with the same signature as the current LocalStore::verifyStore method. Thanks, Ludo’. >From aef46c03ca77eb6344f4892672eb6d9d06432041 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Ludovic=20Court=C3=A8s?= <ludo@gnu.org> Date: Mon, 1 Jun 2015 23:17:10 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Add a 'verifyStore' remote procedure call.

2013-08-07Run the daemon worker on the same CPU as the clientEelco Dolstra
On a system with multiple CPUs, running Nix operations through the daemon is significantly slower than "direct" mode: $ NIX_REMOTE= nix-instantiate '<nixos>' -A system real 0m0.974s user 0m0.875s sys 0m0.088s $ NIX_REMOTE=daemon nix-instantiate '<nixos>' -A system real 0m2.118s user 0m1.463s sys 0m0.218s The main reason seems to be that the client and the worker get moved to a different CPU after every call to the worker. This patch adds a hack to lock them to the same CPU. With this, the overhead of going through the daemon is very small: $ NIX_REMOTE=daemon nix-instantiate '<nixos>' -A system real 0m1.074s user 0m0.809s sys 0m0.098s
2013-03-08Revert "Prevent config.h from being clobbered"Eelco Dolstra
This reverts commit 28bba8c44f484eae38e8a15dcec73cfa999156f6.

2012-12-20nix-store -q --roots: Respect the gc-keep-outputs/gc-keep-derivations settingsEelco Dolstra
So if a path is not garbage solely because it's reachable from a root due to the gc-keep-outputs or gc-keep-derivations settings, ‘nix-store -q --roots’ now shows that root.

2012-07-17Add function queryPathFromHashPart()Eelco Dolstra
To implement binary caches efficiently, Hydra needs to be able to map the hash part of a store path (e.g. "gbg...zr7") to the full store path (e.g. "/nix/store/gbg...kzr7-subversion-1.7.5"). (The binary cache mechanism uses hash parts as a key for looking up store paths to ensure privacy.) However, doing a search in the Nix store for /nix/store/<hash>* is expensive since it requires reading the entire directory. queryPathFromHashPart() prevents this by doing a cheap database lookup.
2012-07-11Replace hasSubstitutes() with querySubstitutablePaths()Eelco Dolstra
querySubstitutablePaths() takes a set of paths, so this greatly reduces daemon <-> client latency.
2012-07-11Add a function queryValidPaths()Eelco Dolstra
queryValidPaths() combines multiple calls to isValidPath() in one. This matters when using the Nix daemon because it reduces latency. For instance, on "nix-env -qas \*" it reduces execution time from 5.7s to 4.7s (which is indistinguishable from the non-daemon case).
2012-07-11Rename queryValidPaths() to queryAllValidPaths()Eelco Dolstra
2012-07-11Implement querySubstitutablePathInfos() in the daemonEelco Dolstra
Also removed querySubstitutablePathInfo().
2012-06-27nix-store -r: do substitutions in parallelEelco Dolstra
I.e. when multiple non-derivation arguments are passed to ‘nix-store -r’ to be substituted, do them in parallel.
2012-05-29Reserve some disk space for the garbage collectorEelco Dolstra
We can't open a SQLite database if the disk is full. Since this prevents the garbage collector from running when it's most needed, we reserve some dummy space that we can free just before doing a garbage collection. This actually revives some old code from the Berkeley DB days. Fixes #27.
2012-04-30* Add an option ‘build-use-substitutes’, which can be set to ‘false’Eelco Dolstra
to disable use of substitutes; i.e., force building from source. Fixes Nix/221.
2011-12-16* Sync with the trunk.Eelco Dolstra
2011-12-16* importPath() -> importPaths(). Because of buffering of the inputEelco Dolstra
stream it's now necessary for the daemon to process the entire sequence of exported paths, rather than letting the client do it.
2011-12-16* Make the import operation through the daemon much more efficientEelco Dolstra
(way fewer roundtrips) by allowing the client to send data in bigger chunks. * Some refactoring.
2011-11-06Include all outputs of derivations in the closure of explicitly-passed ↵Shea Levy

daemon.
2010-11-17* Before a build, show the disk space that the downloaded store pathsEelco Dolstra
will approximately require.
