This mirrors what OptionalPathSetting does. Otherwise we run into
an assertion failure for relative paths specified as the authority + path:
nix build nixpkgs#hello --store "local://a/b"
nix: ../posix-source-accessor.cc:13: nix::PosixSourceAccessor::PosixSourceAccessor(std::filesystem::__cxx11::path&&): Assertion `root.empty() || root.is_absolute()' failed.
This is now diagnosed properly:
error: not an absolute path: 'a/b'
Just as you'd specify the root via a query parameter:
nix build nixpkgs#hello --store "local?root=a/b"
Fewer macros is better!
Introduce a new `JsonChacterizationTest` mixin class to help with this.
Also, avoid some needless copies with `GetParam`.
Part of my effort shoring up the JSON formats with #13570.
These stragglers have been accidentally left out when implementing the StoreConfig::getReference.
Also HttpBinaryCacheStore::getReference now returns the actual store parameters, not the cacheUri
parameters.
This is sometimes easier / more performant to implement, and
independently it is also a more convenient interface for many callers.
The existing store-wide `getFSAccessor` is only used for
- `nix why-depends`
- the evaluator
I hope we can get rid of it for those, too, and then we have the option
of getting rid of the store-wide method.

Old code is now just used for `nix build` --- there is no CLI breaking
change.
Test the new format, too.
The new format is not currently used, but will be used going forward,
for example in the C API.
Progress on #13570
Tested by building with b_sanitize=thread and running:
nix flake prefetch-inputs --store "dummy://?read-only=false"
It might make sense to move this utility class out of dummy-store.cc,
but it seems fine for now.
No behavior is changed, just:
- Declare a canonical `nlohmnan::json::adl_serializer`
- Use `json-utils.hh` to shorten code without getting worse error
messages.

Enables builds with ASAN to catch memory corruption
bugs faster and in CI. This is an incredibly valuable
instrument that must be used as much as possible.
Somewhat based on jade's work from Lix, though there's a lot that
we have to do differently:

See #13570 for details --- the idea is that included the store dir in
store paths makes systematic JSON parting with e.g. Serde, Aeson,
nlohmann, or similiar harder.
After talking to Eelco, we are changing the `Derivation` format right
away because not only is `nix derivation` technically experimental, we think it is
also less widely used in practice than, say, `nix path-info`.
Progress on #13570
Add `read-only` setting to `dummy://` store for back compat.
Test by changing an existing test to use this instead, fixing a TODO.

This allows the weird network or DNS server fallback mechanism inside
glibc to work, and prevents a "Resolving timed out after 5000
milliseconds" error. Read on for details.
The DNS request stuff (dns-hosts) in glibc uses this fallback procedure
to minimize network RTT in the ideal case while dealing with
ill-behaving networks and DNS servers gracefully (see resolv.conf(5)):
- Use sendmmsg() to send UDP DNS requests for IPv4 and IPv6 in parallel
- If that times out (meaning that none or only one of the responses have
been received), send the requests one by one, waiting for the response
before sending the next request ("single-request")
- If that still times out, try to use a different socket (hence
different address) for each request ("single-request-reopen")
The default timeout inside glibc is 5 seconds. Therefore, setting
connect-timeout, and therefore CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT to 5 seconds
prevents the single-request fallback, and setting it to even 10 seconds
prevents the single-request-reopen fallback as well.
The fallback decision is saved by glibc, but only thread-locally, and
libcurl starts a new thread for getaddrinfo() for each connection.
Therefore for every connection the fallback starts from sendmmsg() all
over again. And since these are considered to have timed out by libcurl,
even though getaddrinfo() might return a successful result, it is not
cached in libcurl.
While a user could tweak these with resolv.conf(5) options (e.g. using
networking.resolvconf.extraOptions in NixOS), and indeed that is
probably needed to avoid annoying delays, it still means that the
default connect-timeout of 5 is too low. Raise it to give fallback a
chance.
This has been dropped on unstable an nix no longer
compiled with overridden nixpkgs input. On 25.05 these
overrides already do nothing.
Tested with:
nix build .#packages.x86_64-darwin.nix-cli -L --override-input nixpkgs https://releases.nixos.org/nixos/unstable/nixos-25.11pre859555.ab0f3607a6c7/nixexprs.tar.xz
Default deployment target on 25.05 is 11.3, so 10.13
sdk override doesn't have to be updated at all as evident
from the fact that we didn't observe any issues with it.
This reverts commit bdbc739d6e.
Such a change needs more thought put into it. By versioning
shared libraries we'd make a false impression that libraries
themselves are actually versioned and have some sort of stable
ABI, which is not the case.
This will be useful when C bindings become stable, but as long
as they are experimental it does not make sense to set SONAME.
Also this change should not have been backported, since it's
severely breaking.
