Some programs store the executable in a different place and link it
from the `bin` directory. For example, Polari links `$out/bin/polari`
to `$out/share/polari/org.gnome.Polari`. `wrapGAppsHook` did not follow
symlinks so it was not able to wrap Polari, making it unable to access
GObject introspection definitions required for running the program.
I made the wrapping script follow symlinks to fix this corner case.
In 8d76eff, @Ericson2314 changed the representation of the value that
`findInputs` generated from a whitespace-separated bunch strings to an
actual array of strings.
Expressions that *consume* that value, however, also needed to be
changed to iterate over all the contents of the array, else they would
only select the first value, which turns out to be somewhat limiting.
Fixes#27873
The image json is not exactly the same as the layer json, therefore I
changed the implementation to use the `baseJson` which doesn’t include
layer specific details like `id`, `size` or the checksum of the layer.
Also the `history` entry was missing in the image json. I’m not totally
sure if this field is required, but a I got an error from a docker
registry when I’ve tried to receive the distribution manifest of an
image without those `history` entry:
GET: `http://<registry-host>/v2/<imageName>/manifests/<imageTag>`
```json
{
"errors": [
{
"code": "MANIFEST_INVALID",
"message": "manifest invalid",
"detail": {}
}
]
}
```
I’ve also used a while loop to iterate over all layers which should make
sure that the order of the layers is correct. Previously `find` was
used and I’m not sure if the order was always correct.
callPackage already calls makeOverridable, but that just
makes the function that evaluates to buildEnv overridable,
not buildEnv itself.
If no overridable version of buildEnv is used during construction,
users can't override e.g. `paths` at all
Unified processing of command line arguments in ld-wrapper broke support for
`NIX_DONT_SET_RPATH` and revealed that ld-wrapper adds the directory of its
`-plugin` argument to runpath. This pull request fixes that. It treats
`dir/libname.so` as `-L dir -l name`, because this is how `ld.so` interprets
resulting binary: with `dir` in `RUNPATH` and the bare `libname.so` (without
`dir`) in `NEEDED`, it looks for `libname.so` in each `RUNPATH` and chooses the
first, even when the linker was invoked with an absolute path to `.so`.
As described in https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/18461, MacOS no
longer accepts dylibs which only reexport other dylibs, because their
symbol tables are empty. To get around this, we define an object file
with a single "private extern" symbol, which hopefully won't clobber
anything.
If the base image has been built with nixpkgs.dockerTools, the image
configuration and manifest are readonly so we first need to change
their permissions before removing them.
Fix#27632.
The time to expand rpath was proportional to the number of -L flags times the
number of -l flags. Now it is proportional to their sum (assuming constant
number of files in each directory in an -L flag).

This setup hook is propagated by gdb. Thus, a typical use is:
$ nix-shell -p gdb nix nix.debug sqlite.debug ...
and gdb will be able find the debug symbols of nix etc. automatically.
The docker loading (docker 1.12.6) of an image with uppercase in the
name fails with the following message:

As @oxij points out in [1], this breakage is especially serious because
it changes the contents of built environments without a corresonding
change in their hashes. Also, the revert is easier than I thought.
This reverts commit 3cb745d5a6.
[1]: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/27427#issuecomment-317293040
Fixes#27406.
Commit 5d4efb2c81 added an assertion to `stopNest'
which requires it be correctly paired with `startNest'. `fetchurl' calls
`stopNest', but never calls `startNest'; the former calls are removed.
The `DISPLAY` environment variable is propagated into chroots built with
`buildFHSUserEnv`, but currently the `XAUTHORITY` variable is not. When
the latter is set, its value is usually necessary in order to connect to
the X server identified by the former.
This matters for users running gdm3, for example, who have `XAUTHORITY`
set to something like `/run/user/1000/gdm/Xauthority` instead of the X
default of `~/.Xauthority`, which doesn't exist in that setup.
Fixes#21532.
Since 3cb745d5a6, the format of
propagated-user-env-packages has changed and propagated packages have not been
included by buildenv, including in the system environment.
The buildenv builder is modified to read propagated-user-env-packages
line-by-line, instead of expecting all packages on one line.
Besides deduplicating overlapping logic, clear warning messages were
added for:
- No glob/path for dynamic linker provided (use default glob)
- Glob did not expand to anything (don't append flag)
- glob expanded to multiple things (take first, like before)
This makes those files a bit easier to read. Also, for what it's worth,
it brings us one baby step closer to handling spaces in store paths.
Also, I optimized handling of many transitive deps with read. Probably,
not very beneficial, but nice to enforce the pkg-per-line structure.
Doing so let me find much dubious code and fix it.
Two misc notes:
- `propagated-user-env-packages` also needed to be adjusted as
sometimes it is copied to/from the propagated input files.
- `local fd` should ensure that file descriptors aren't clobbered
during recursion.
They're additional commits from #26877.
Changing names of the fetched stuff was changing very many hashes,
and I think it's better to avoid that for the moment to reduce work
needed by nixpkgs users. The fetchers are expected to be commonly
used even outside nixpkgs, and the current naming wasn't that bad
usually.
(commit analogical to d10c3cc5eedf58e80e2; I haven't noticed the part of
the PR has already got to master)
The freedesktop specification says that the autostart folder is located at $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/autostart.
Nixos defines XDG_CONFIG_DIRS as /etc/xdg. So we need to copy the desktop files into the right folder
with make-startupitem.
This will override the existing winsymlinks setting. nativestrict
will cause ln to fail if it's unable to create a native symlink.
Native symlinks are required for the windows dll loader to find the
libraries.
This script is also used for cross-mingw, but setting CYGWIN
shouldn't cause a problem.
This allows users to specify a custom registry src,
because currently every packager would need to create
an outdated Cargo.lock just to be compatible with the
probably outdated rustRegistry in nixpkgs.
Currently there is no easy way to convince cargo to
do that, so this makes that workaround unnecessary.
I think it's ok to export things which aren't wrapped. The cc-wrapper
can be thought of as responsible for all of binutils and the c
compiler, only wrapping those binaries which are necessary to
interposition---as opposed to all binaries it thinks are relevaant.
Conversely, adding the setup hook to the unwrapped compilers would be
unforunate as hooks are ugly hacks and the compilers themselves take
a long time to rebuild. Better to wholely separate "pure packages" from
hacks.
Eventually we should avoid this "pre-wrapping" and just update those
files in nixpkgs. This mass-rebuild change is best done along with
those needed to reduce the disparity between native and cross (i.e.
making native the "identity cross").
We now (on cross) require per-target flag interposition by putting the
triple in the names of the relevant environment variables, e.g:
export NIX_arm_unknown_linux_gnu_CFLAGS_COMPILE=...
The wrapper also has a `infixSalt` attribute (and "_" prefixed and
suffixed variants) to assist downstream packages.
Note how that the dashes are replaced to keep the identifier valid.
Using names like this allows us to keep the settings for different
compilers seperate.
I think it might be even better to use names like `NIX_{BUILD,HOST}...`
using the platform's role rather than the platform itself, but this
would be more work as the previous stages' tools would have to be re-
wrapped to take on their new role. I therefore didn't do this for now,
but that route should be thoroughly explored in the future.
This fixes the Stack Clash issue rediscovered by Qualys. See
https://www.qualys.com/2017/06/19/stack-clash/stack-clash.txt
for more information on the topic, specifically section III.
We don't have the kernel mitigation available because it is a Grsecurity
feature which we don't support anymore. Other distributions like Gentoo
Hardened and Arch already have `-fstack-check` enabled by default.
See the Gentoo page on Stack Clash for more information on this solution:
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Hardened/Gentoo_Hardened_and_Stack_Clash
This unfortunately doesn't apply to clang because `-fstack-check` is a
noop there. Note that the GCC implementation also has problems that could
be exploited to circumvent these checks but it is still better than
keeping it disabled.

The plugins are built in their own derivations, speeding up (re-)compilation.
The `diffPlugins` function from `beets` is reused to test for changes in the

* beets: switch to diffPlugins
The function is basically just extracted for better reusability.
This value is require to get c++ std include path for libclang based tools (vim plugins in my case).
I currently extract it this with this rather command:
```
eval echo $(nix-instantiate --eval --expr 'with (import <nixpkgs>) {}; clang.default_cxx_stdlib_compile')
```
it did not trigger any recompilation on my system.
`SSL_CERT_FILE` has been replaced with `NIX_SSL_CERT_FILE`.

Solution was to disable the large file warning threshold when
installing packages.
This still causes some uncached rebuilds, but master(!) and staging
move too fast forward rebuild-wise, so Hydra might never catch up.
(There are also other occasional problems.)
Therefore I merge at this point where the rebuild isn't that bad.
We need to make sure that `$revs` ends with a space, since files must always
end with newlines. The previous code ignored the last entry in `$revs`, because
read already returns non-zero exit code for the last entry, as it does not end
with a space.
This change fixes several defects in the way `wrapGAppsHook` selected
the executable to wrap.
Previously, it would wrap any top-level files in the target `/bin` and
`/libexec` directories, including directories and non-executable
files. In addition, it failed to wrap files in subdirectories.
Now, it uses `find` to iterate over these directory hierarchies,
selecting only executable files for wrapping.

When not using sandboxing, /usr/share/git-core/templates may leak into the
nix build through the libgit2 hardcoded default template search path. We now
explictly set the templatedir to avoid this problem.
See https://github.com/bennofs/nix-index/issues/2#issuecomment-296268983 for
an example case of nondeterminism.
This typo was likely introduced by copy-pasting the error message from elsewhere and forgetting to change the text, during the MD5 deprecation process (#4491).
This patch fixes file modification times to $SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH, and
ensures that files originating from the store are owned by root:root.
Both changes improve reproducibility, and the latter allows proper
building on a host where the store is owned by a non-root user.
Every Rust derivation used to emit a warning like the following:
```
setting SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH to timestamp 1490877042 of file cargo-6e0c18c/Cargo.lock
warning: file cargo-6e0c18c/Cargo.lock may be generated; SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH may be non-deterministic
```
The reason is that the dependencies are copied without preserving
timestamps. Changing the build script to timestamp-preserving copy
removes the warning.
This is a flag that disables subversion keyword substitution.
Keyword substitution inserts metadata into the files being checked
out, and is therefore somewhat at odds with build reproducibility.
In particular, it can become a problem if you're trying to switch
between svn and a git export of the same thing (keyword substitutions
are normally not exported into git).
This allows for a less blanket approach than nuke-refs, targetting specific
references that we know we don't want rather than all references that we don't
know we want.
Because of bash 4.4 the semantics GLOBIGNORE changed.
This resulted in already compressed manpages to be compressed twice.
Also be careful about symlinks to fix#21777, e.g. the ledger example.
See
8214bb953d
for the cargo commit which deprecated the registry.index key, and
implements this as a replacement. This gets rid of the error message
warning: custom registry support via the `registry.index` configuration is being removed, this functionality will not work in the future
This script is not needed anymore since "nix-prefetch-url --unpack
<url>" and "nix-prefetch-url -A foo.src" (where "foo.src" is a
fetchzip / fetchFromGitHub call) work fine.
This reverts commit 3d9017602b.
This didn't quite work as I had expected ... While it seemed okay at
first, it fails to propagate all the attributes it used to (notably
features). I'll revisit this later but reverting for now.
This adds a `dhallToNix` utility which compiles expression from the Dhall
configuration language to Nix using Nix's support for "import from derivation".
The main motivation of this compiler is to allow users to carve out small typed
subsets of Nix projects. Everything in the Dhall language (except `Double`s)
can be translated to Nix in this way, including functions.
This is required for Aarch64 since a lot of source tarballs ship with
outdated configure scripts that don't recognize aarch64. Simply
replacing the config.guess and config.sub with new versions from
upstream makes them build again.
This same approach is used by at least Buildroot and Fedora. In
principle this could be enabled for all architectures but
conditionalizing this on aarch64 avoids a mass rebuild on x86.
To achieve reproducible results, `cpio` archive members are added in
sorted order and inodes renumbered.
The `cpio-clean.pl` script is made obsolete by setting mtimes via
`touch` & using `cpio --reproducible`. Suggested by @dezgeg in
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/21273#issuecomment-268116605.
Note that using `--reproducible` means that initial ramdisk creation now
requires at least `cpio` version 2.12 (released in 2015).
Deprecation warnings should not be used in Nixpkgs because they spam
innocent "nix-env -qa" users with (in this case) dozens of messages
that they can't do anything about.
This also reverts commit 2ca8833383.
I believe this reduces surprises and is actually simpler semantically.
This is important e.g. for relative symlinks when moving both source
and target - now the order of moving won't matter.
Fixes#20723 (a particular instance of the surprise).
This makes the response file handling more consistent with GCC.
For example, a reponse file may contain:
"-Wl,$ORIGIN"
GCC will treat this as a double quoted string and not expand the
variable reference. Previously, cc-wrapper would expand the variable
in the same was as if the string was provided on the command line.
This commit extends fetchFromGitHub with ability to fetch GitHub
repositories with submodules, so we can use the function consistently
with all GitHub repositories.
Note it doesn't change the previous behavior.
Include files are typically in the libc package's `dev` output but previously `-isystem` was looking in `out`, resulting in my cross-compilation environment not finding its include files.
The motivation for this change is the following: As gnu-netcat,
e. g. does not support ipv6, it is not suitable as default netcat.
This commit also fixes all obvious build issues caused by this change.
This is a temporary work-around to fix using grsecurity on NixOS with
the new kernelPackages/kernelPatches machinery.
For whatever reason, when `security.grsecurity.enable = true`, the grsec
patch ends up being applied twice, causing the kernel build to fail.
Until the root cause of this is identified, we hack around it by simply
pruning duplicate patches in the grsec kernel builder.
Closes#19698
`stripHash` documentation states that it prints out the stripped name to
the stdout, but the function stored the value in `strippedName`
instead.
Basically all usages did something like
`$(stripHash $foo | echo $strippedName)` which is just braindamaged.
Fixed the implementation and all invocations.
extraFlagsArray should not be exposed outside of `makeWrapper`, it
should only be possible to set it inside a script supplied via the
`--run` argument.
