The previous implementation called .value() on std::optional without
checking if it had a value. When _NIX_TEST_UNIT_DATA was not set, this
would throw std::bad_optional_access or cause a segfault in code that
used the raw getenv() result.
The new implementation checks the optional first and throws an Error
with a helpful message directing users to run tests via meson. The
example includes --gdb since this situation may arise when trying to
debug tests without knowing about meson's test infrastructure.
Pretty self-explanatory. More RAII is good and unclutters the already heavily overloaded
destructors from ownership logic. Not yet touching CURL *req because that would be too churny.
Fetching gcc-15.2.0.tar.gz I get a warning about UTF8 archive names. This
now mentions problematic pathnames.
warning: getting archive member 'gcc-15.2.0/gcc/testsuite/go.test/test/fixedbugs/issue27836.dir/Äfoo.go': Pathname can't be converted from UTF-8 to current locale.
warning: getting archive member 'gcc-15.2.0/gcc/testsuite/go.test/test/fixedbugs/issue27836.dir/Ämain.go': Pathname can't be converted from UTF-8 to current locale.
Also apparently libarchive depends on locale (yikes). Fixing reproducibility issues
that stem from this is a separate issue. At least having the warning actually mention
the pathname should be useful enough even though it's not actionable.
At least using the default locale yields something sane:
builtins.readDir "${gcc}/gcc/testsuite/go.test/test/fixedbugs/issue27836.dir"
{
"Äfoo.go" = "regular";
"Ämain.go" = "regular";
}
Fix intermittent SIGSEGV (exit code 139) on macOS when running
nix-shell and shebang tests inside the nix sandbox.
The foo, bar, and ruby test scripts were created without shebangs,
which causes intermittent crashes when executed via command
substitution on macOS. Adding proper shebangs resolves the flakiness.
Potentially closes: #13106
This matches what we just did for `nix path-info`, and I hope will allow
us to avoiding any more breaking changes to this command for the
foreseeable future.
Previously the daemon didn't validate that it got a valid GCAction
and did a naive C-style cast to the enum. This is certainly unintentional,
albeit mostly harmless in practice.
The fact that we were introducing a conversion from the output of `nix
path-info` into the input of `builtins.fetchTree` was the deciding
factor. We want scripting outputs into inputs like that to be easy.
Since JSON strings and objects are trivially distinguishable, we still
have the option of introducing the JSON format as an alternative input
scheme in the future, should we want to. (The output format would still
be SRI in that case, presumably.)
Floating CA outputs just have a hash algorith, not a whole hash. It is
fixed ones which are a pair of a method and a hash, just like the `ca`
field of store object info.
This restores compatibility with Nix 2.18, which behaved this
way. Note that this doesn't scan for the actually visible references.
Unlike in Nix 2.18, we only do this for paths with context, i.e. it
applies to `builtins.storePath "/nix/store/bla..."` but not
`"/nix/store/bla..."`. We don't want the latter because it shouldn't
matter whether a source file happens to be in the Nix store.
This was lost after 2.32 while making the accessor lazy. We can restore the support
for it pretty easily. Also this is significant optimization for nix nar cat.
E.g. with a NAR of a linux repo this speeds up by ~3x:
Benchmark 1: nix nar cat /tmp/linux.nar README
Time (mean ± σ): 737.2 ms ± 5.6 ms [User: 298.1 ms, System: 435.7 ms]
Range (min … max): 728.6 ms … 746.9 ms 10 runs
Benchmark 2: build/src/nix/nix nar cat /tmp/linux.nar README
Time (mean ± σ): 253.5 ms ± 2.9 ms [User: 56.4 ms, System: 196.3 ms]
Range (min … max): 248.1 ms … 258.7 ms 12 runs
The whole NarAccessor -> listing -> lazy NarAccessor is very weird. Source
can now be seek-ed over when supported, so we can support it pretty easily.
Alternatively we could also make it single-pass very easily with a custom
FileSystemObjectSink. It will get removed in a follow-up commit anyway.
