2010-11-17* Before a build, show the disk space that the downloaded store pathsEelco Dolstra
will approximately require.
2010-11-17* Implement RemoteStore::queryPathInfo().Eelco Dolstra
2010-08-24* Sync with the trunk.Eelco Dolstra
2010-08-12* Make --cores work when building through the Nix daemon.Eelco Dolstra
2010-08-04* Sync with the trunk.Eelco Dolstra
2010-06-24Include <cstring> to ensure that strcpy(), strlen(), and memset() are declared.Peter Simons
An "using namespace std" was added locally in those functions that refer to names from <cstring>. That is not pretty, but it's a very portable solution, because strcpy() and friends will be found in both the 'std' and in the global namespace.
2010-05-04* Allow unprivileged users to do `nix-store --clear-failed-paths' andEelco Dolstra
`nix-store --query-failed-paths'.
2010-04-19* Drop the dependency on the ATerm library.Eelco Dolstra
2010-03-02* When using the included sqlite/aterm libraries, build withEelco Dolstra
--enable-shared. * In libutil/libstore/libexpr etc., link against sqlite and aterm. * Some more header file hygiene.
2010-02-26* Implement RemoteStore::queryValidPaths().Eelco Dolstra
2010-02-25* Implement RemoteStore::queryDerivationOutputs().Eelco Dolstra
2010-02-24* `helpText' is now zero-terminated.Eelco Dolstra
2010-02-24* ADDITIONAL_NETWORK_LIBS -> LIBS.Eelco Dolstra
2010-02-24* Add ${sqlite_lib} everywhere. Just adding it in `libstore' doesn'tEelco Dolstra
work on x86_64 when sqlite is compiled statically.
2009-11-20* Remove the --use-atime / --max-atime garbage collector flags. ManyEelco Dolstra
(Linux) machines no longer maintain the atime because it's too expensive, and on the machines where --use-atime is useful (like the buildfarm), reading the atimes on the entire Nix store takes way too much time to make it practical.
2009-11-06* Remove support for old (before Nix 0.12pre12020) databases.Eelco Dolstra
2009-10-08Added optional parameter which adds -lnsl -lsocket to make the Nix package ↵Sander van der Burg
manager work on OpenSolaris
2009-09-30* Support platforms that don't have O_ASYNC (e.g. OpenSolarisEelco Dolstra
apparently).
2009-03-23* Shut up a GCC warning.Eelco Dolstra
2008-12-16* Pass --use-atime / --max-atime to the daemon.Eelco Dolstra
2008-12-12* We can't use string objects in signal handlers because they mightEelco Dolstra
allocate memory, which is verboten in signal handlers. This caused random failures in the test suite on Mac OS X (triggered by the spurious SIGPOLL signals on Mac OS X, which should also be fixed).
2008-12-03* addToStore() in nix-worker: don't write the NAR dump received fromEelco Dolstra
the client to a temporary directory, as that is highly inefficient.
2008-12-03* Backwards compatibility.Eelco Dolstra
2008-12-03* Pass HashType values instead of strings.Eelco Dolstra
2008-12-03* Unify the treatment of sources copied to the store, and recursiveEelco Dolstra
SHA-256 outputs of fixed-output derivations. I.e. they now produce the same store path: $ nix-store --add x /nix/store/j2fq9qxvvxgqymvpszhs773ncci45xsj-x $ nix-store --add-fixed --recursive sha256 x /nix/store/j2fq9qxvvxgqymvpszhs773ncci45xsj-x the latter being the same as the path that a derivation derivation { name = "x"; outputHashAlgo = "sha256"; outputHashMode = "recursive"; outputHash = "..."; ... }; produces. This does change the output path for such fixed-output derivations. Fortunately they are quite rare. The most common use is fetchsvn calls with SHA-256 hashes. (There are a handful of those is Nixpkgs, mostly unstable development packages.) * Documented the computation of store paths (in store-api.cc).
2008-11-20* Nix daemon: reload the configuration file after forking (NIX-100).Eelco Dolstra
2008-11-14* Prevent zombies. Previous the SIGCHLD handler only reaped oneEelco Dolstra
zombie at a time, so if multiple children died before the handler got to run, some of them would not be cleaned up.
2008-11-12* Some somewhat ad hoc mechanism to allow the build farm to monitorEelco Dolstra
build progress.
2008-11-11* Pass the --no-build-output flag to the daemon.Eelco Dolstra
2008-08-04* querySubstitutablePathInfo: work properly when run via the daemon.Eelco Dolstra
* --dry-run: print the paths that we don't know how to build/substitute.
2008-06-18* Some refactoring: put the GC options / results in separate structs.Eelco Dolstra
* The garbage collector now also prints the number of blocks freed.
2008-06-14* nix-worker: clean up the temporary root for the worker processes Eelco Dolstra
in /nix/var/nix/temproots.
2008-06-09* Merged the no-bdb branch (-r10900:HEADEelco Dolstra
https://svn.nixos.org/repos/nix/nix/branches/no-bdb).
2008-04-09* sockaddr_un doesn't allow path names of more than 108 characters.Eelco Dolstra
This isn't usually a problem, except that it causes tests to fail when performed in a directory with a very long path name. So chdir to the socket directory and use a relative path name.
2008-03-20* Disable the don't-run-as-root sanity check because it breaks RPMEelco Dolstra
builds (which are done as root...).
2007-11-16* Flag `--no-build-hook' to disable distributed builds.Eelco Dolstra
* queryDeriver in daemon mode: don't barf if the other side returns an empty string (which means there is no deriver).
2007-09-18* Pass various options to the worker so that flags like -K or -j workEelco Dolstra
in multi-user Nix (NIX-72). * Client/worker: exchange a protocol version number for future compatibility.
2007-08-30* Create the Nix daemon socket in a separate directoryEelco Dolstra
(/nix/var/nix/daemon-socket). This allows access to the Nix daemon to be restricted by setting the mode/ownership on that directory as desired, e.g. $ chmod 770 /nix/var/nix/daemon-socket $ chown root.wheel /nix/var/nix/daemon-socket to allow only users in the wheel group to use Nix. Setting the ownership on a socket is much trickier, since the socket must be deleted and recreated every time the daemon is started (which would require additional Nix configuration file directives to specify the mode/ownership, and wouldn't support arbitrary ACLs), some BSD variants appear to ignore permissions on sockets, and it's not clear whether the umask is respected on every platform when creating sockets.
2007-06-12* Support queryDeriver() in multi-user installations.Eelco Dolstra
2007-03-28* Handle ECONNRESET from the client. Also, don't abort() if there areEelco Dolstra
unexpected conditions in the SIGPOLL handler, since that messes up the Berkeley DB environment (which a client must never be able to trigger).
2007-02-22* Handle EINTR in select().Eelco Dolstra
2007-02-21* `nix-store --import' now also works in remote mode. The workerEelco Dolstra
always requires a signature on the archive. This is to ensure that unprivileged users cannot add Trojan horses to the Nix store.
2007-02-21* Support exportPath() in remote mode.Eelco Dolstra
2006-12-12* New primop builtins.filterSource, which can be used to filter filesEelco Dolstra
from a source directory. All files for which a predicate function returns true are copied to the store. Typical example is to leave out the .svn directory: stdenv.mkDerivation { ... src = builtins.filterSource (path: baseNameOf (toString path) != ".svn") ./source-dir; # as opposed to # src = ./source-dir; } This is important because the .svn directory influences the hash in a rather unpredictable and variable way.
2006-12-07* Doh!Eelco Dolstra
2006-12-07* Rename all those main.cc files.Eelco Dolstra
2006-12-06* Fix the safety check.Eelco Dolstra
2006-12-05* Tricky: child processes should not send data to the client sinceEelco Dolstra
that might mess up the protocol. And besides, the socket file descriptor is probably closed.
2006-12-05* Oops! In daemon mode, we can't run as root either if build-users is empty.Eelco Dolstra
2006-12-05* Use an explicit handler for SIGCHLD, since SIG_IGN doesn't do the Eelco Dolstra
right thing on FreeBSD 4 (it leaves zombies).
