Realisations are conceptually key-value pairs, mapping `DrvOutputs` (the
key) to information about that derivation output.
This separate the value type, which will be useful in maps, etc., where
we don't want to denormalize by including the key twice.
This matches similar changes for existing types:
| keyed | unkeyed |
|--------------------|------------------------|
| `ValidPathInfo` | `UnkeyedValidPathInfo` |
| `KeyedBuildResult` | `BuildResult` |
| `Realisation` | `UnkeyedRealisation` |
`perf c2c` shows a lot of cacheline conflicts between purely read-only
Store methods (like `parseStorePath()`) and the Sync classes. So
allocate pathInfoCache separately to avoid that.
This is relied upon (specifically the `local` store) by existing
tooling [1] and we broke this in 3e7879e6df (which
was first released in 2.31).
To lessen the scope of the breakage we should not normalize "auto" references
and explicitly specified references like "local" or "daemon". It also makes
sense to canonicalize local://,daemon:// to be more compatible with prior
behavior.

Instead of passing them around separately, or doing finicky logic in a
try-catch block to recover them, just make `BuildError` always contain a
status, and make it the thrower's responsibility to set it. This is much
more simple and explicit.
Once that change is done, split the `done` functions of `DerivationGoal`
and `DerivationBuildingGoal` into separate success and failure
functions, which ends up being easier to understand and hardly any
duplication.
Also, change the handling of failures in resolved cases to use
`BuildResult::DependencyFailed` and a new message. This is because the
underlying derivation will also get its message printed --- which is
good, because in general the resolved derivation is not unique. One dyn
drv test had to be updated, but CA (and dyn drv) is experimental, so I
do not mind.
Finally, delete `SubstError` because it is unused.
This is needed to rearrange include order, but I also think it is a good
thing anyways, as we seek to reduce the use of global settings variables
over time.
Rather than having store implementations return a free-form URI string,
have them return a `StoreReference`. This reflects that fact that this
method is supposed to invert `resolveStoreConfig`, which goes from a
`StoreReference` to some `StoreConfig` concrete derived class (based on
the registry).
`StoreConfig::getUri` is kept only as a convenience for the common case
that we want to immediately render the `StoreReference`.
A few tests were changed to use `local://` not `local`, since
`StoreReference` does not encode the `local` and `daemon` shorthands
(and instead desugars them to `local://` and `unix://` right away). I
think that is fine. `local` and `daemon` still work as input.
Previously `getUri` didn't include store query parameters,
`ssh-ng` didn't include any information at all and the local
store didn't have the path:
```
$ nix store info --store "local?root=/tmp/aaa&require-sigs=false"
Store URL: local
Version: 2.31.0
Trusted: 1
$ nix store info --store "ssh-ng://localhost?remote-program=nix-daemon"
Store URL: ssh-ng://
Version: 2.31.0
Trusted: 1
$ nix store info --store "ssh://localhost?remote-program=nix-store"
Store URL: ssh://localhost
```
This commit changes this to:
```
$ nix store info --store "local?root=/tmp/aaa&require-sigs=false"
Store URL: local?require-sigs=false&root=/tmp/aaa
Version: 2.31.0
Trusted: 1
$ nix store info --store "ssh-ng://localhost?remote-program=nix-daemon"
Store URL: ssh-ng://localhost?remote-program=nix-daemon
Version: 2.31.0
Trusted: 1
$ nix store info --store "ssh://localhost?remote-program=nix-store"
Store URL: ssh://localhost?remote-program=nix-store
```
The implicit dependency on refLength (which is the StorePath::HashLen)
is not good. Also the companion tests and benchmarks are already in libstore-tests.
* It is tough to contribute to a project that doesn't use a formatter,
* It is extra hard to contribute to a project which has configured the formatter, but ignores it for some files
* Code formatting makes it harder to hide obscure / weird bugs by accident or on purpose,
Let's rip the bandaid off?
Note that PRs currently in flight should be able to be merged relatively easily by applying `clang-format` to their tip prior to merge.
If a build directory is accessible to other users it is possible to
smuggle data in and out of build directories. Usually this is only
a build purity problem, but in combination with other issues it can
be used to break out of a build sandbox. to prevent this we default
to using a subdirectory of nixStateDir (which is more restrictive).

Running parallel nix in nix can lead to multiple instances trying to
create the state directories and failing on the `createSymlink` step,
because the link already exists.
`replaceSymlink` is already idempotent, so let's use that.
Resolves#2706
Add helpful context when opening the Nix database lock fails due to
permission errors. Instead of just showing "Permission denied", now
provides guidance about possible causes:
- Running as non-root in a single-user Nix installation
- Nix daemon may have crashed
The existing header is a bit too big. Now the following use-cases are
separated, and get their own headers:
- Using or implementing an arbitrary store: remaining `store-api.hh`
This is closer to just being about the `Store` (and `StoreConfig`)
classes, as one would expect.
- Opening a store from a textual description: `store-open.hh`
Opening an aribtrary store implementation like this requires some sort
of store registration mechanism to exists, but the caller doesn't need
to know how it works. This just exposes the functions which use such a
mechanism, without exposing the mechanism itself
- Registering a store implementation: `store-registration.hh`
This requires understanding how the mechanism actually works, and the
mechanism in question involves templated machinery in headers we
rather not expose to things that don't need it, as it would slow down
compilation for no reason.
The intention is to switch to transparent comparators from N3657 for
ordered set containers for strings and using the alias consistently
would simplify things.
Rather than "mounting" the store inside an empty virtual filesystem,
just return the store as a virtual filesystem. This is more modular.
(FWIW, it also supports two long term hopes of mind:
1. More capability-based Nix language mode. I dream of a "super pure
eval" where you can only use relative path literals (See #8738), and
any `fetchTree`-fetched stuff + the store are all disjoint (none is
mounted in another) file systems.
2. Windows, where the store dir may include drive letters, etc., and is
thus unsuitable to be the prefix of any `CanonPath`s.

For example, instead of doing
#include "nix/store-config.hh"
#include "nix/derived-path.hh"
Now do
#include "nix/store/config.hh"
#include "nix/store/derived-path.hh"
This was originally planned in the issue, and also recent requested by
Eelco.
Most of the change is purely mechanical. There is just one small
additional issue. See how, in the example above, we took this
opportunity to also turn `<comp>-config.hh` into `<comp>/config.hh`.
Well, there was already a `nix/util/config.{cc,hh}`. Even though there
is not a public configuration header for libutil (which also would be
called `nix/util/config.{cc,hh}`) that's still confusing, To avoid any
such confusion, we renamed that to `nix/util/configuration.{cc,hh}`.
Finally, note that the libflake headers already did this, so we didn't
need to do anything to them. We wouldn't want to mistakenly get
`nix/flake/flake/flake.hh`!
Progress on #7876
There are two big changes:
1. Public and private config is now separated. Configuration variables
that are only used internally do not go in a header which is
installed.
(Additionally, libutil has a unix-specific private config header,
which should only be used in unix-specific code. This keeps things a
bit more organized, in a purely private implementation-internal way.)
2. Secondly, there is no more `-include`. There are very few config
items that need to be publically exposed, so now it is feasible to
just make the headers that need them just including the (public)
configuration header.
And there are also a few more small cleanups on top of those:
- The configuration files have better names.
- The few CPP variables that remain exposed in the public headers are
now also renamed to always start with `NIX_`. This ensures they should
not conflict with variables defined elsewhere.
- We now always use `#if` and not `#ifdef`/`#ifndef` for our
configuration variables, which helps avoid bugs by requiring that
variables must be defined in all cases.
The short answer for why we need to do this is so we can consistently do
`#include "nix/..."`. Without this change, there are ways to still make
that work, but they are hacky, and they have downsides such as making it
harder to make sure headers from the wrong Nix library (e..g.
`libnixexpr` headers in `libnixutil`) aren't being used.
The C API alraedy used `nix_api_*`, so its headers are *not* put in
subdirectories accordingly.
Progress on #7876
We resisted doing this for a while because it would be annoying to not
have the header source file pairs close by / easy to change file
path/name from one to the other. But I am ameliorating that with
symlinks in the next commit.
We can move this method from `LocalStore` to `Store` --- even if we only
want the actual builder to sign things in many cases, there is no reason
to try to enforce this policy by spurious moving the method to a
subclass.
Now, we might technically sign class, but CA derivations is
experimental, and @Ericson2314 is going to revisit all this stuff with
issue #11896 anyways.
This variable was once used to communicate already acquired store path
locks between Nix and the build hook, but this hasn't been the case
since 9bcb4d2dd9. So let's get rid of
it.
Backward-compatible schema changes (e.g. those that add tables or
nullable columns) now no longer need a change to the global schema
file (/nix/var/nix/db/schema). Thus, old Nix versions can continue to
access the database.
This is especially useful for schema changes required by experimental
features. In particular, it replaces the ad-hoc handling of the schema
changes for CA derivations (i.e. the file /nix/var/nix/db/ca-schema).
Schema versions 8 and 10 could have been handled by this mechanism in
a backward-compatible way as well.
This caused nlohmann/json.hpp to leak into a lot of compilation units,
which is slow (when not using precompiled headers).
Cuts build time from 46m24s to 42m5s (real time with -j24: 2m42s to
2m24s).
