2023-01-18Revert "Merge pull request #6204 from layus/coerce-string"Robert Hensing
This reverts commit a75b7ba30f1e4f8b15e810fd18e63ee9552e0815, reversing changes made to 9af16c5f742300e831a2cc400e43df1e22f87f31.

2022-04-21store Symbols in a table as well, like positionspennae
this slightly increases the amount of memory used for any given symbol, but this increase is more than made up for if the symbol is referenced more than once in the EvalState that holds it. on average every symbol should be referenced at least twice (once to introduce a binding, once to use it), so we expect no increase in memory on average. symbol tables are limited to 2³² entries like position tables, and similar arguments apply to why overflow is not likely: 2³² symbols would require as many string instances (at 24 bytes each) and map entries (at 24 bytes or more each, assuming that the map holds on average at most one item per bucket as the docs say). a full symbol table would require at least 192GB of memory just for symbols, which is well out of reach. (an ofborg eval of nixpks today creates less than a million symbols!)
2022-04-21replace most Pos objects/ptrs with indexes into a position tablepennae
Pos objects are somewhat wasteful as they duplicate the origin file name and input type for each object. on files that produce more than one Pos when parsed this a sizeable waste of memory (one pointer per Pos). the same goes for ptr<Pos> on 64 bit machines: parsing enough source to require 8 bytes to locate a position would need at least 8GB of input and 64GB of expression memory. it's not likely that we'll hit that any time soon, so we can use a uint32_t index to locate positions instead.

2022-03-16nix-env: always print output names in JSON and XMLNaïm Favier
The current `--out-path` flag has two disadvantages when one is only concerned with querying the names of outputs: - it requires evaluating every output's `outPath`, which takes significantly more resources and runs into more failures - it destroys the information of the order of outputs so we can't tell which one is the main output This patch makes the output names always present (replacing paths with `null` in JSON if `--out-path` isn't given), and adds an `outputName` field.
2022-03-04Add detailed error mesage for coerceTo{String,Path}Guillaume Maudoux
2022-03-02Add EvalState::coerceToStorePath() helperEelco Dolstra
This is useful whenever we want to evaluate something to a store path (e.g. in get-drvs.cc). Extracted from the lazy-trees branch (where we can require that a store path must come from a store source tree accessor).
2022-02-25Remove std::string alias (for real this time)Eelco Dolstra
Also use std::string_view in a few more places.
2022-02-04Make most calls to determinePos() lazyEelco Dolstra
2022-01-21forceValue: make pos mandatoryKevin Amado
- Make passing the position to `forceValue` mandatory, this way we remember people that the position is important for better error messages - Add pos to all `forceValue` calls
2022-01-04Ensure that attrsets are sortedEelco Dolstra
Previously you had to remember to call value->attrs->sort() after populating value->attrs. Now there is a BindingsBuilder helper that wraps Bindings and ensures that sort() is called before you can use it.

2021-08-29Force all Pos* to be non-nullRobert Hensing
This fixes a class of crashes and introduces ptr<T> to make the code robust against this failure mode going forward. Thanks regnat for the idea of a ref<T> without overhead! Closes #4895 Closes #4893 Closes #5127 Closes #5113
2021-04-05Rename BuildableJohn Ericson
2021-04-05Use `BuildableReq` for `buildPaths` and `ensurePath`John Ericson
This avoids an ambiguity where the `StorePathWithOutputs { drvPath, {} }` could mean "build `brvPath`" or "substitute `drvPath`" depending on context. It also brings the internals closer in line to the new CLI, by generalizing the `Buildable` type is used there and makes that distinction already. In doing so, relegate `StorePathWithOutputs` to being a type just for backwards compatibility (CLI and RPC).

2020-10-09Split out `local-fs-store.hh`John Ericson
This matches the already-existing `local-fs-store.cc`.

2020-04-03nix-env: Refuse to operate on a new-style profileEelco Dolstra
This prevents users from accidentally nuking their profile via nix-env. (cherry picked from commit 021634e3e3edb327089d33ab41b743f0a40126da)
2020-03-11Move some corepkgs into the nix binaryEelco Dolstra
2019-12-10Make the Store API more type-safeEelco Dolstra
Most functions now take a StorePath argument rather than a Path (which is just an alias for std::string). The StorePath constructor ensures that the path is syntactically correct (i.e. it looks like <store-dir>/<base32-hash>-<name>). Similarly, functions like buildPaths() now take a StorePathWithOutputs, rather than abusing Path by adding a '!<outputs>' suffix. Note that the StorePath type is implemented in Rust. This involves some hackery to allow Rust values to be used directly in C++, via a helper type whose destructor calls the Rust type's drop() function. The main issue is the dynamic nature of C++ move semantics: after we have moved a Rust value, we should not call the drop function on the original value. So when we move a value, we set the original value to bitwise zero, and the destructor only calls drop() if the value is not bitwise zero. This should be sufficient for most types. Also lots of minor cleanups to the C++ API to make it more modern (e.g. using std::optional and std::string_view in some places).

Discussed on https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/12653#discussion_r51601849
2016-02-04Eliminate the "store" global variableEelco Dolstra
Also, move a few free-standing functions into StoreAPI and Derivation. Also, introduce a non-nullable smart pointer, ref<T>, which is just a wrapper around std::shared_ptr ensuring that the pointer is never null. (For reference-counted values, this is better than passing a "T&", because the latter doesn't maintain the refcount. Usually, the caller will have a shared_ptr keeping the value alive, but that's not always the case, e.g., when passing a reference to a std::thread via std::bind.)
2015-07-23Optimize small listsEelco Dolstra
The value pointers of lists with 1 or 2 elements are now stored in the list value itself. In particular, this makes the "concatMap (x: if cond then [(f x)] else [])" idiom cheaper.

2014-03-11Fix passing meta attribute to buildenv.nixEelco Dolstra
Since the meta attributes were not sorted, attribute lookup could fail, leading to package priorities and active flags not working correctly. Broken since 0f24400d90daf65cf20142a662f8245008437e2c.
2014-02-18Add a flag ‘--check’ to verify build determinismEelco Dolstra
The flag ‘--check’ to ‘nix-store -r’ or ‘nix-build’ will cause Nix to redo the build of a derivation whose output paths are already valid. If the new output differs from the original output, an error is printed. This makes it easier to test if a build is deterministic. (Obviously this cannot catch all sources of non-determinism, but it catches the most common one, namely the current time.) For example: $ nix-build '<nixpkgs>' -A patchelf ... $ nix-build '<nixpkgs>' -A patchelf --check error: derivation `/nix/store/1ipvxsdnbhl1rw6siz6x92s7sc8nwkkb-patchelf-0.6' may not be deterministic: hash mismatch in output `/nix/store/4pc1dmw5xkwmc6q3gdc9i5nbjl4dkjpp-patchelf-0.6.drv' The --check build fails if not all outputs are valid. Thus the first call to nix-build is necessary to ensure that all outputs are valid. The current outputs are left untouched: the new outputs are either put in a chroot or diverted to a different location in the store using hash rewriting.
