2024-05-29Remove 100s of CPU time (10%) from build times (1465s -> 1302s)Jade Lovelace
I saw that boost/lexical_cast was costing about 100s in CPU time on our compiles. We can fix this trivially by doing explicit template instantiation in exactly one place and eliminating all other includes of it, which is a code improvement anyway by hiding the boost. Before: ``` lix/lix2 » ClangBuildAnalyzer --analyze buildtimeold.bin Analyzing build trace from 'buildtimeold.bin'... **** Time summary: Compilation (551 times): Parsing (frontend): 1465.3 s Codegen & opts (backend): 1110.9 s <snip> **** Expensive headers: 178153 ms: ../src/libcmd/installable-value.hh (included 52 times, avg 3426 ms), included via: 40x: command.hh 5x: command-installable-value.hh 3x: installable-flake.hh 2x: <direct include> 2x: installable-attr-path.hh 176217 ms: ../src/libutil/error.hh (included 246 times, avg 716 ms), included via: 36x: command.hh installable-value.hh installables.hh derived-path.hh config.hh experimental-features.hh 12x: globals.hh config.hh experimental-features.hh 11x: file-system.hh file-descriptor.hh 6x: serialise.hh strings.hh 6x: <direct include> 6x: archive.hh serialise.hh strings.hh ... 173243 ms: ../src/libstore/store-api.hh (included 152 times, avg 1139 ms), included via: 55x: <direct include> 39x: command.hh installable-value.hh installables.hh 7x: libexpr.hh 4x: local-store.hh 4x: command-installable-value.hh installable-value.hh installables.hh 3x: binary-cache-store.hh ... 170482 ms: ../src/libutil/serialise.hh (included 201 times, avg 848 ms), included via: 37x: command.hh installable-value.hh installables.hh built-path.hh realisation.hh hash.hh 14x: store-api.hh nar-info.hh hash.hh 11x: <direct include> 7x: primops.hh eval.hh attr-set.hh nixexpr.hh value.hh source-path.hh archive.hh 7x: libexpr.hh value.hh source-path.hh archive.hh 6x: fetchers.hh hash.hh ... 169397 ms: ../src/libcmd/installables.hh (included 53 times, avg 3196 ms), included via: 40x: command.hh installable-value.hh 5x: command-installable-value.hh installable-value.hh 3x: installable-flake.hh installable-value.hh 2x: <direct include> 1x: installable-derived-path.hh 1x: installable-value.hh ... 159740 ms: ../src/libutil/strings.hh (included 221 times, avg 722 ms), included via: 37x: command.hh installable-value.hh installables.hh built-path.hh realisation.hh hash.hh serialise.hh 19x: <direct include> 14x: store-api.hh nar-info.hh hash.hh serialise.hh 11x: serialise.hh 7x: primops.hh eval.hh attr-set.hh nixexpr.hh value.hh source-path.hh archive.hh serialise.hh 7x: libexpr.hh value.hh source-path.hh archive.hh serialise.hh ... 156796 ms: ../src/libcmd/command.hh (included 51 times, avg 3074 ms), included via: 42x: <direct include> 7x: command-installable-value.hh 2x: installable-attr-path.hh 150392 ms: ../src/libutil/types.hh (included 251 times, avg 599 ms), included via: 36x: command.hh installable-value.hh installables.hh path.hh 11x: file-system.hh 10x: globals.hh 6x: fetchers.hh 6x: serialise.hh strings.hh error.hh 5x: archive.hh ... 133101 ms: /nix/store/644b90j1vms44nr18yw3520pzkrg4dd1-boost-1.81.0-dev/include/boost/lexical_cast.hpp (included 226 times, avg 588 ms), included via : 37x: command.hh installable-value.hh installables.hh built-path.hh realisation.hh hash.hh serialise.hh strings.hh 19x: file-system.hh 11x: store-api.hh nar-info.hh hash.hh serialise.hh strings.hh 7x: primops.hh eval.hh attr-set.hh nixexpr.hh value.hh source-path.hh archive.hh serialise.hh strings.hh 7x: libexpr.hh value.hh source-path.hh archive.hh serialise.hh strings.hh 6x: eval.hh attr-set.hh nixexpr.hh value.hh source-path.hh archive.hh serialise.hh strings.hh ... 132887 ms: /nix/store/h2abv2l8irqj942i5rq9wbrj42kbsh5y-gcc-12.3.0/include/c++/12.3.0/memory (included 262 times, avg 507 ms), included via: 36x: command.hh installable-value.hh installables.hh path.hh types.hh ref.hh 16x: gtest.h 11x: file-system.hh types.hh ref.hh 10x: globals.hh types.hh ref.hh 10x: json.hpp 6x: serialise.hh ... done in 0.6s. ``` After: ``` lix/lix2 » maintainers/buildtime_report.sh build Processing all files and saving to '/home/jade/lix/lix2/maintainers/../buildtime.bin'... done in 0.6s.

2024-03-09Unify and refactor value printingeldritch horrors
Previously, there were two mostly-identical value printers -- one in `libexpr/eval.cc` (which didn't force values) and one in `libcmd/repl.cc` (which did force values and also printed ANSI color codes). This PR unifies both of these printers into `print.cc` and provides a `PrintOptions` struct for controlling the output, which allows for toggling whether values are forced, whether repeated values are tracked, and whether ANSI color codes are displayed. Additionally, `PrintOptions` allows tuning the maximum number of attributes, list items, and bytes in a string that will be displayed; this makes it ideal for contexts where printing too much output (e.g. all of Nixpkgs) is distracting. (As requested by @roberth in https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/9554#issuecomment-1845095735) Please read the tests for example output. Future work: - It would be nice to provide this function as a builtin, perhaps `builtins.toStringDebug` -- a printing function that never fails would be useful when debugging Nix code. - It would be nice to support customizing `PrintOptions` members on the command line, e.g. `--option to-string-max-attrs 1000`. (cherry picked from commit 0fa08b451682fb3311fe58112ff05c4fe5bee3a4, ) === Restore ambiguous value printer for `nix-instantiate` The Nix team has requested that this output format remain unchanged.

2023-04-21Use `std::set<StringContextElem>` not `PathSet` for string contextsJohn Ericson
Motivation `PathSet` is not correct because string contexts have other forms (`Built` and `DrvDeep`) that are not rendered as plain store paths. Instead of wrongly using `PathSet`, or "stringly typed" using `StringSet`, use `std::std<StringContextElem>`. ----- In support of this change, `NixStringContext` is now defined as `std::std<StringContextElem>` not `std:vector<StringContextElem>`. The old definition was just used by a `getContext` method which was only used by the eval cache. It can be deleted altogether since the types are now unified and the preexisting `copyContext` function already suffices. Summarizing the previous paragraph: Old: - `value/context.hh`: `NixStringContext = std::vector<StringContextElem>` - `value.hh`: `NixStringContext Value::getContext(...)` - `value.hh`: `copyContext(...)` New: - `value/context.hh`: `NixStringContext = std::set<StringContextElem>` - `value.hh`: `copyContext(...)` ---- The string representation of string context elements no longer contains the store dir. The diff of `src/libexpr/tests/value/context.cc` should make clear what the new representation is, so we recommend reviewing that file first. This was done for two reasons: Less API churn: `Value::mkString` and friends did not take a `Store` before. But if `NixStringContextElem::{parse, to_string}` *do* take a store (as they did before), then we cannot have the `Value` functions use them (in order to work with the fully-structured `NixStringContext`) without adding that argument. That would have been a lot of churn of threading the store, and this diff is already large enough, so the easier and less invasive thing to do was simply make the element `parse` and `to_string` functions not take the `Store` reference, and the easiest way to do that was to simply drop the store dir. Space usage: Dropping the `/nix/store/` (or similar) from the internal representation will safe space in the heap of the Nix programming being interpreted. If the heap contains many strings with non-trivial contexts, the saving could add up to something significant. ---- The eval cache version is bumped. The eval cache serialization uses `NixStringContextElem::{parse, to_string}`, and since those functions are changed per the above, that means the on-disk representation is also changed. This is simply done by changing the name of the used for the eval cache from `eval-cache-v4` to eval-cache-v5`. ---- To avoid some duplication `EvalCache::mkPathString` is added to abstract over the simple case of turning a store path to a string with just that string in the context. Context This PR picks up where #7543 left off. That one introduced the fully structured `NixStringContextElem` data type, but kept `PathSet context` as an awkward middle ground between internal `char[][]` interpreter heap string contexts and `NixStringContext` fully parsed string contexts. The infelicity of `PathSet context` was specifically called out during Nix team group review, but it was agreeing that fixing it could be left as future work. This is that future work. A possible follow-up step would be to get rid of the `char[][]` evaluator heap representation, too, but it is not yet clear how to do that. To use `NixStringContextElem` there we would need to get the STL containers to GC pointers in the GC build, and I am not sure how to do that. ---- PR #7543 effectively is writing the inverse of a `mkPathString`, `mkOutputString`, and one more such function for the `DrvDeep` case. I would like that PR to have property tests ensuring it is actually the inverse as expected. This PR sets things up nicely so that reworking that PR to be in that more elegant and better tested way is possible.

2023-04-06Backport SourcePath from the lazy-trees branchEelco Dolstra
This introduces the SourcePath type from lazy-trees as an abstraction for accessing files from inputs that may not be materialized in the real filesystem (e.g. Git repositories). Currently, however, it's just a wrapper around CanonPath, so it shouldn't change any behaviour. (On lazy-trees, SourcePath is a <InputAccessor, CanonPath> tuple.)

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.

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).

2020-03-11Move 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).

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.)
