Also use std::string_view in a few more places.

hercules-ci/issue-3294-fix-interruptCallback-deadlock
Fix deadlocked nix-daemon zombies on darwin #3294
|
|
|
|
I noticed that occasional Ctrl-C leaves *.lock files around.
`nix-daemon`'s journal logs contained crashes like:
nix-daemon[30416]: terminate called after throwing an instance of 'nix::SysError'
nix-daemon[30416]: what(): error: writing to file: Broken pipe
And core dump backtraces pointed at `teriminate()` call from
destructors:
...
_Unwind_Resume ()
nix::ignoreException() ()
nix::LocalDerivationGoal::~LocalDerivationGoal()
...
void ignoreException()
{
try {
throw;
} catch (std::exception & e) {
printError("error (ignored): %1%", e.what());
}
}
The crashes happen when client side closes early and printError() throws
an IO error.
The change wraps `ignoreException()` into blanket `try { ... } catch (...) {}`.

This changes the representation of the interrupt callback list to
be safe to use during interrupt handling.
Holding a lock while executing arbitrary functions is something to
avoid in general, because of the risk of deadlock.
Such a deadlock occurs in https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/3294
where ~CurlDownloader tries to deregister its interrupt callback.
This happens during what seems to be a triggerInterrupt() by the
daemon connection's MonitorFdHup thread. This bit I can not confirm
based on the stack trace though; it's based on reading the code,
so no absolute certainty, but a smoking gun nonetheless.

Fixes #6017
|
|
we'll retain the old coerceToString interface that returns a string, but callers
that don't need the returned value to outlive the Value it came from can save
copies by using the new interface instead. for values that weren't stringy we'll
pass a new buffer argument that'll be used for storage and shouldn't be
inspected.
|
|
once a string has been forced we already have dynamic storage allocated for it,
so we can easily reuse that storage instead of copying.
|
|
|
|
In particular we were still compiling rust-ffi.cc even though we're
not using it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The signature was also changed so the function now accepts a vector
instead of an iterator
|
|
optimize primops and utils by caching more and copying less
|
|
Remove shared strings
|
|
These were needed back in the pre-C++11 era because we didn't have
move semantics. But now we do.
|
|
|
|
|
|
improve parser performance a bit
|
|
when given a string yacc will copy the entire input to a newly allocated
location so that it can add a second terminating NUL byte. since the
parser is a very internal thing to EvalState we can ensure that having
two terminating NUL bytes is always possible without copying, and have
the parser itself merely check that the expected NULs are present.

there's a couple places that can be easily converted from using strings to using
string_views instead. gives a slight (~1%) boost to system eval.

avoid std::?stream overhead when it's not helpful
|
|
this avoids one copy from `s` into `str`, and possibly another copy needed to
construct `s` at the call site. lexical_cast is also more efficient in general.
|
|
Make --repair-path also repair corrupt optimised links
|
|
There already existed a smoke test for the link content length,
but it appears that there exists some corruptions pernicious enough
to replace the file content with zeros, and keeping the same length.
--repair-path now goes as far as checking the content of the link,
making it true to its name and actually repairing the path for such
coruption cases.

we don't have to create an ostream sentry object for every character of a JSON
string we write. format a bunch of characters and flush them to the stream all
at once instead.
this doesn't affect small numbers of string characters, but larger numbers of
total JSON string characters written gain a lot. at 1MB of total string written
we gain almost 30%, at 16MB it's almost a factor of 3x. large numbers of JSON
string characters do occur naturally in a nixos system evaluation to generate
documentation (though this is now somewhat mitigated by caching the largest part
of nixos option docs).

Text representation for errors should include the trace if
--show-trace is passed.

Remove CPU locking

This was already accidentally disabled in ba87b08. It also no longer
appears to be beneficial, and in fact slow things down, e.g. when
evaluating a NixOS system configuration:
elapsed time: median = 3.8170 mean = 3.8202 stddev = 0.0195 min = 3.7894 max = 3.8600 [rejected, p=0.00000, Δ=0.36929±0.02513]

On Docker (but not podman), unshare(CLONE_FS) fails with EPERM. So
let's ignore it and hope nothing bad happens.
Attempted fix for #5777.

reproducibility: hide non-reproducible settings from manual
|
|
Fixes #5741
|
|
Libarchive documentation mentions that archive_entry_set_pathname
expects us to keep the passed string alive, which we don't.
|
|
Tidy up the logging
|
|
Due to missing <atomic> declaration the build fails as:
src/libutil/util.hh:350:24: error: no match for 'operator||' (operand types are 'std::atomic<bool>' and 'bool')
350 | if (_isInterrupted || (interruptCheck && interruptCheck()))
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ^~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
| | |
| std::atomic<bool> bool
|
|
Because the manual is generated from default values which are themselves
generated from various sources (cpuid, bios settings (kvm), number of
cores). This commit hides non-reproducible settings from the manual
output.
|
|
Use the macros more, so we properly skip work when the log level
excludes. Also log the daemon operation number on the daemon side.
|
|
Fixes #5674.
