Fix PID namespace support check
2023-02-10Fix building with GCC 9Eelco Dolstra
Nixpkgs on aarch64-linux is currently stuck on GCC 9 (https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/208412) and using gcc11Stdenv doesn't work either. So use c++2a instead of c++20 for now. Unfortunately this means we can't use some C++20 features for now (like std::span).

Follow XDG Base Directory standard
2023-02-10A setting to follow XDG Base Directory standardAlexander Bantyev
XDG Base Directory is a standard for locations for storing various files. Nix has a few files which seem to fit in the standard, but currently use a custom location directly in the user's ~, polluting it: - ~/.nix-profile - ~/.nix-defexpr - ~/.nix-channels This commit adds a config option (use-xdg-base-directories) to follow the XDG spec and instead use the following locations: - $XDG_STATE_HOME/nix/profile - $XDG_STATE_HOME/nix/defexpr - $XDG_STATE_HOME/nix/channels If $XDG_STATE_HOME is not set, it is assumed to be ~/.local/state.

2023-02-07Check whether we can use PID namespacesEelco Dolstra
In unprivileged podman containers, /proc is not fully visible (there are other filesystems mounted on subdirectories of /proc). Therefore we can't mount a new /proc in the sandbox that matches the PID namespace of the sandbox. So this commit automatically disables sandboxing if /proc is not fully visible.
2023-02-07Fix auto-uid-allocation in Docker containersEelco Dolstra
This didn't work because sandboxing doesn't work in Docker. However, the sandboxing check is done lazily - after clone(CLONE_NEWNS) fails, we retry with sandboxing disabled. But at that point, we've already done UID allocation under the assumption that user namespaces are enabled. So let's get rid of the "goto fallback" logic and just detect early whether user / mount namespaces are enabled. This commit also gets rid of a compatibility hack for some ancient Linux kernels (<2.13).
2023-02-03advertise transport encoding in http transfers toJörg Thalheim
tl;dr: With this 1 line change I was able to get a speedup of 1.5x on 1Gbit/s wan connections by enabling zstd compression in nginx. Also nix already supported all common compression format for http transfer, webservers usually only enable them if they are advertised through the Accept-Encoding header. This pull requests makes nix advertises content compression support for zstd, br, gzip and deflate. It's particular useful to add transparent compression for binary caches that serve packages from the host nix store in particular nix-serve, nix-serve-ng and harmonia. I tried so far gzip, brotli and zstd, whereas only zstd was able to bring me performance improvements for 1Gbit/s WAN connections. The following nginx configuration was used in combination with the [zstd module](https://github.com/tokers/zstd-nginx-module) and [harmonia](https://github.com/nix-community/harmonia/) ```nix { services.nginx.virtualHosts."cache.yourhost.com" = { locations."/".extraConfig = '' proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:5000; proxy_set_header Host $host; proxy_redirect http:// https://; proxy_http_version 1.1; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade; proxy_set_header Connection $connection_upgrade; zstd on; zstd_types application/x-nix-archive; ''; }; } ``` For testing I unpacked a linux kernel tarball to the nix store using this command `nix-prefetch-url --unpack https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v6.x/linux-6.1.8.tar.gz`. Before: ```console $ nix build && rm -rf /tmp/hello && time ./result/bin/nix copy --no-check-sigs --from https://cache.thalheim.io --to 'file:///tmp/hello?compression=none' '/nix/store/j42mahch5f0jvfmayhzwbb88sw36fvah-linux-6.1.8.tar.gz' warning: Git tree '/scratch/joerg/nix' is dirty real 0m18,375s user 0m2,889s sys 0m1,558s ``` After: ```console $ nix build && rm -rf /tmp/hello && time ./result/bin/nix copy --no-check-sigs --from https://cache.thalheim.io --to 'file:///tmp/hello?compression=none' '/nix/store/j42mahch5f0jvfmayhzwb b88sw36fvah-linux-6.1.8.tar.gz' real 0m11,884s user 0m4,130s sys 0m1,439s ``` Signed-off-by: Jörg Thalheim <joerg@thalheim.io> Update src/libstore/filetransfer.cc Co-authored-by: Théophane Hufschmitt <7226587+thufschmitt@users.noreply.github.com>

Move `trustedUsers` and `allowedUsers` to separate config struct
2023-02-02Move `trustedUsers` and `allowedUsers` to separate config structJohn Ericson
These settings are not needed for libstore at all, they are just used by the nix daemon *command* for authorization on unix domain sockets. My moving them to a new configuration struct just in that file, we avoid them leaking anywhere else. Also, it is good to break up the mammoth `Settings` struct in general. Issue #5638 tracks this. The message is not changed because I do not want to regress in convenience to the user. Just saying "this connection is not trusted" doesn't tell them out to fix the issue. The ideal thing to do would be to somehow parameterize `processCommand` on how the error should be displayed, so different sorts of connections can display different information to the user based on how authentication is performed for the connection in question. This, however, is a good bit more work, so it is left for the future. This came up with me thinking about the tcp:// store (#5265). The larger project is not TCP *per se*, but the idea that it should be possible for something else to manage access control to services like the Nix Daemon, and those services simply trust or trust the incoming connection as they are told. This is a more capability-oriented way of thinking about trust than "every server implements its own auth separately" as we are used to today. Its very great that libstore itself already implements just this model, and so via this refactor I basically want to "enshrine" that so it continues to be the case.
2023-02-02Get rid of the `authHook` parameter on `processConnection`John Ericson
This is (morally) dead code. As @edolstra pointed out in https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/5226#discussion_r1073470813, this is no longer needed. I created this in 8d4162ff9e940ea9e2f97b07f3030a722695901a, so it is fitting that I now destroy it :).

This is radically unsafe and the daemon has already loaded its plugins anyway. Fixes cachix/devenv#276

2023-01-30Delete dead codeJohn Ericson
The references set seems to have been unused since `LegacySSHStore` references were first created in caa5793b4a74049ee37dd88eb1c5b785456ce40d. The method decls never were upstream, and accidentally added by me in 062533f7cdb74026096ca8c7d5b6e393893d59ef (probably due to `git rerere`). Sorry! This reduces the diff from #3746.
2023-01-30Make per-variant Arbitrary impls tooJohn Ericson
This is a nice idea that @roberth requested. If we could factor our a generic `std::variant` impl as a follow-up it would be even better!
2023-01-30Separate `path.hh` from `content-address.hh`John Ericson
It is good to separate concerns; `StorePath` (in general) has nothing to do with `ContentAddress` anyways. This reduces the diff from #3746.
2023-01-30Avoid some `StorePath` <-> `Path` round tripsJohn Ericson
Avoid needless work and throwing away invariants. These conversions date back to when `StorePath` was in Rust and there were issues with it missing utility methods.

2023-01-17Try again to fix aarch64-linux build failureJohn Ericson
f419ab48e6394838097f158265ac3cc531ee7958 was on the right track, but there are a few more missing `raw()` calls to fix.
2023-01-17Keep the default profile the sameThéophane Hufschmitt
It's used as the “system” profile in a bunch of places, so better not touch it. Besides, it doesn't hurt to keep it since it's owned by root any way, so it doesn't have the `chown` problem that the user profiles had and that led to wanting to move them on the client-side.
2023-01-17Don't try to migrate existing profilesThéophane Hufschmitt
Doing so would be more dangerous than useful, better leave them as-is if they already exist
2023-01-17Migrate the old profiles to the new locationThéophane Hufschmitt
Make sure that we don’t just create the new profiles directory, but that we also migrate every existing profile to it.
2023-01-17Move the default profiles to the user’s homeThéophane Hufschmitt
Rather than using `/nix/var/nix/{profiles,gcroots}/per-user/`, put the user profiles and gcroots under `$XDG_DATA_DIR/nix/{profiles,gcroots}`. This means that the daemon no longer needs to manage these paths itself (they are fully handled client-side). In particular, it doesn’t have to `chown` them anymore (removing one need for root). This does change the layout of the gc-roots created by nix-env, and is likely to break some stuff, so I’m not sure how to properly handle that.
2023-01-15Try to fix build failureJohn Ericson
Failure: https://hydra.nixos.org/build/205357257/nixlog/1 The problem seems to be trying to `std::visit` a derived class of `std::variant`. Per https://stackoverflow.com/questions/63616709/incomplete-type-stdvariant-used-in-nested-name-specifier certain C++ standard library implementations allow this, but others do not. The solution is simply to call the `raw` method, which upcasts the reference back to the `std::variant`.
2023-01-13Move `ValidPathInfo` defintions to `path-info.cc`John Ericson
Originally there was no `path-info.*`, then there was `path-info.hh`, then there was `path-info.cc`, but only for new things. Moving this stuff over makes everything consistent.
