2024-05-07libutil: de-callback-ify computeClosureeldritch horrors
only two users of this function exist. only one used it in a way that even bears resemblance to asynchronicity, and even that one didn't do it right. fully async and parallel computation would have only worked if any getEdgesAsync never calls the continuation it receives itself, only from more derived callbacks running on other threads. calling it directly would cause the decoupling promise to be awaited immediately *on the original thread*, completely negating all nice async effects.

2024-05-05Actually try making a userns before assuming they don't workJade Lovelace
If unprivileged userns are *believed* to be disabled (such as with "kernel.unprivileged_userns_clone = 0"), Lix would previously *give up* on trying to use a user namespace before actually trying it, even if, in cases such as unprivileged_userns_clone, it would actually be allowed since Nix has CAP_SYS_ADMIN when running as daemon. (see, e.g. https://github.com/archlinux/linux/commit/25d4709a4fc0e4f3b432c24b60dd508fb84f0cb2) We changed it to actually try it first, and then diagnose possible causes, and also to be more loud about the whole thing, using warnings instead of debugs. These warnings will only print on the first build run by the daemon, which is, tbh, eh, shrug. This is what led to us realizing that no-userns was a poorly exercised condition.

2024-05-03libutil: make rewriteStrings soundeldritch horrors
this is used in CA rewriting, replacement of placeholders in derivations, generating scripts for devShells, and some more places. in all of these transitive replacements are unsound, and overlapping replacements would be as well. there even is a test that transitive replacements do not happen (in the CA RewriteSink suite), but none for overlapping replacements. a minimally surprising binary rewriter surely would not do any of these replacements, the only reason we have not seen this break yet is probably that rewriteStrings is only called for store paths and things that look like store paths (and those should never overlap nor admit such transitive replacements) Change-Id: I6fc29f939d5061d9f56c752624a823ece8437c07

2024-04-25gc: Find roots using libproc on DarwinArtemis Tosini
Previously, the garbage collector found runtime roots on Darwin by shelling out to `lsof -n -w -F n` then parsing the result. However, this requires an lsof binary and can be extremely slow. The official Apple lsof returns in a reasonable amount of time, about 250ms in my tests, but the lsof packaged in nixpkgs is quite slow, taking about 40 seconds to run the command. Using libproc directly is about the same speed as Apple lsof, and allows us to reënable several tests that were disabled on Darwin. Change-Id: Ifa0adda7984e13c15535693baba835aae79a3577

2024-04-11docs: redo content generation for mdbook and manualeldritch horrors
manpages can be rendered using the markdown output of mdbook, the rest of the manual can generated out of the main doc/manual source tree. we still use lowdown to actually render manpages instead of eg mdbook-man because lowdown does generate reasonably good manpages (though that is also somewhat debatable, but they're a lot better than mdbook-man). doing this not only lets us drastically simplify the lowdown pipeline, but also remove all custom {{#include}} handling since now mdbook does all of it, even for the manpage builds. even the lowdown wrapper isn't entirely necessary because lowdown can take all wrapper arguments with command line flags rather than bits of input file content. This also implements running mdbook in Meson, in order to generate the manpages. The mdbook outputs are also installed in the usual location.

2024-04-05libutil: guard Finally against invalid exception throwseldritch horrors
throwing exceptions is fine, but throwing exceptions during exception handling is hard enough to do correctly that we should just forbid it entirely out of an overabundance of caution. in cases where terminate is the correct answer the users of Finally must call it manually now.

2024-03-31libutil: drop Fs{Source,Sink}::goodeldritch horrors
setting this only on exceptions caused by actual fd access is not sufficient to diagnose all errors (such as SerialisationError) in some cases. this usually does not have any negative effects since those errors will end up killing the process in another way. this is not a reliable assumption though and we should be using proper error handling (and closing connections more often, preferring to close over keeping something open that might be in a weird state) Change-Id: I1b792cd7ad8ba9ff0f6bd174945ab2575ff2208e
2024-03-31libutil: allow graceful dropping of Pool::Handleeldritch horrors
not needed yet, but returning a resource from the exception handling path that has ownership of a handle is currently not well-supported. we could also add a default constructor to Handle, but then we would also need to change the pool reference to a pointer. eventually that should be done since now resources can be swapped between pools with clever moves, but since that's not a problem yet we won't do it now.

2024-03-31libutil: make ~Finally noexcept(false)eldritch horrors
this is supposed to act like a finally block does in other languages. a finally block should be able to throw exceptions of its own rather than just crashing the entire program when it throws it own exceptions. even in the rare case of a finally throwing an unexpected exception it might be better to report the exception from Finally instead of the original, at least that can keep our program running instead of letting it crash.

2024-03-30libutil: drop Pool resources on exceptional freeeldritch horrors
if a scope owning a resource does not gracefully drop that resource while handling exceptions from deeper down the call stack we should assume the resource is invalid state and drop it. currently it *is* true that such cases do not cause resources to be freed, but thanks to validator misuses this has so far not caused any larger problem.

2024-03-27HOT SALE: 15% off your build times!Jade Lovelace
This was achieved by running maintainers/buildtime_report.sh on the build directory of a meson build, then asking "why the heck is json eating our build times", and strategically moving the json using bits out of widely included headers. It turns out that putting literally any metrics whatsoever into the build had immediate and predictable results. Results are 1382.5s frontend time -> 1175.4s frontend time, back end time approximately invariant.

2024-03-25Overhaul completions, redo #6693 (#8131)John Ericson
As I complained in https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/6784#issuecomment-1421777030 (a comment on the wrong PR, sorry again!), #6693 introduced a second completions mechanism to fix a bug. Having two completion mechanisms isn't so nice. As @thufschmitt also pointed out, it was a bummer to go from `FlakeRef` to `std::string` when collecting flake refs. Now it is `FlakeRefs` again. The underlying issue that sought to work around was that completion of arguments not at the end can still benefit from the information from latter arguments. To fix this better, we rip out that change and simply defer all completion processing until after all the (regular, already-complete) arguments have been passed. In addition, I noticed the original completion logic used some global variables. I do not like global variables, because even if they save lines of code, they also obfuscate the architecture of the code. I got rid of them moved them to a new `RootArgs` class, which now has `parseCmdline` instead of `Args`. The idea is that we have many argument parsers from subcommands and what-not, but only one root args that owns the other per actual parsing invocation. The state that was global is now part of the root args instead. This did, admittedly, add a bunch of new code. And I do feel bad about that. So I went and added a lot of API docs to try to at least make the current state of things clear to the next person. -- This is needed for RFC 134 (tracking issue #7868). It was very hard to modularize `Installable` parsing when there were two completion arguments. I wouldn't go as far as to say it is *easy* now, but at least it is less hard (and the completions test finally passed).

This commit adds several meson.build, which successfully build and install Lix executables, libraries, and headers. Meson does not yet build docs, Perl bindings, or run tests, which will be added in following commits. As such, this commit does not remove the existing build system, or make it the default, and also as such, this commit has several FIXMEs and TODOs as notes for what should be done before the existing autoconf + make buildsystem can be removed and Meson made the default. This commit does not modify any source files. A Meson-enabled build is also added as a Hydra job, and to `nix flake check`. Change-Id: I667c8685b13b7bab91e281053f807a11616ae3d4
