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`!

(cherry picked from commit cc24766fa6)
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.

This is better for privacy and to avoid leaking netrc credentials in a
MITM attack, but also the assumption that we check the hash no longer
holds in some cases (in particular for impure derivations).
Partially reverts 5db358d4d7.
1. Fix build by making the legacy SSH Storey's secret `logFD` setting
not a setting on Windows. (It doesn't make sense to specify `void *`
handles by integer cross-proccess, I don't think.)
2. Move some files that don't need to be Unix-only anymore back to their
original locations.
This makes for shorter and more portable code.
The only tricky part is catching exceptions: I just searched for near by
`catch (Error &)` or `catch (SysError &)` and adjusted them to `catch
(std::filesystem::filesystem_error &)` according to my human judgement.
Good for windows portability; will help @siddhantk232 with his GSOC
project.
At this point many features are stripped out, but this works:
- Can run libnix{util,store,expr} unit tests
- Can run some Nix commands

This function is nice for more than `PosixSourceAccessor`. We can make a
few things simpler with it.
Note that the error logic slightly changes in some of the call sites, in
that we also count `ENOTDIR` and not just `ENOENT` as not having the
file, but that should be fine.
At the moment an Error is thrown that only holds an error message
regarding `nix-env` and `nix profile`. These tools make use of
builtins.buildEnv, but buildEnv is also used in other places. These
places are unrelated to Nix profiles, so the error shouldn't mention
these tools.
This generic error is now BuildEnvFileConflictError, which holds more
contextual information about the files that were conflicting while
building the environment.
Changes:
* The divider lines are gone. These were in practice a bit confusing,
in particular with --show-trace or --keep-going, since then there
were multiple lines, suggesting a start/end which wasn't the case.
* Instead, multi-line error messages are now indented to align with
the prefix (e.g. "error: ").
* The 'description' field is gone since we weren't really using it.
* 'hint' is renamed to 'msg' since it really wasn't a hint.
* The error is now printed *before* the location info.
* The 'name' field is no longer printed since most of the time it
wasn't very useful since it was just the name of the exception (like
EvalError). Ideally in the future this would be a unique, easily
googleable error ID (like rustc).
* "trace:" is now just "…". This assumes error contexts start with
something like "while doing X".

Some users have their own hashed-mirrors setup, that is used to mirror
things in addition to what’s available on tarballs.nixos.org. Although
this should be feasable to do with a Binary Cache, it’s not always
easy, since you have to remember what "name" each of the tarballs has.
Continuing to support hashed-mirrors is cheap, so it’s best to leave
support in Nix. Note that NIX_HASHED_MIRRORS is also supported in
Nixpkgs through fetchurl.nix.
Note that this excludes tarballs.nixos.org from the default, as in
\#3689. All of these are available on cache.nixos.org.
Now the derivation outputs are parsed up front, we can avoid a reparse
by doing it. Also, this just feels a bit better as the `output*` env
vars are more of a `libnixexpr` interface than `libnixstore` interface:
ultimately, it's the derivation outputs that decide whether the
derivation is fixed-output.
Yes, hashed mirrors might go away with #3689, but this bit of code would
be moved rather than deleted, so it's worth doing a cleanup anyways I
think.
