The previous place where OR_KW was inserted into the grammar to allow
expressions like "map or [...]" led to a number of weird outcomes. By
moving it to expr_simple, expressions using "or" as a variable are now
parsed consistently with the rest of the language. Conflicts are
prevented by telling Bison that OR_KW has higher precedence than '.'.
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
libstdc++'s std::stable_sort and new builtins.sort implementation
special-case ranges with length less than or equal to 16 and delegate
to insertionsort.
Having a larger e2e test would allow catching sort stability issues
at functional level as well.
This prevents C++ level undefined behavior from affecting
the evaluator. Stdlib implementation details should not affect
eval, regardless of the build platform. Even erroneous usage
of `builtins.sort` should not make it possible to crash the
evaluator or produce results that depend on the host platform.
Unlike std::sort and std::stable_sort, this implementation
does not lead to out-of-bounds memory reads or other undefined
behavior when the predicate is not strict weak ordering.
This makes it possible to use this function in libexpr for
builtins.sort, where an incorrectly implemented comparator
in the user nix code currently can crash and burn the evaluator
by invoking C++ UB.
Makes the behavoral change of #13263 without the underlying refactor.
Hopefully this clearly safe from a perf and GC perspective, and will
make it easier to benchmark #13263.
This overload isn't actually necessary anywhere and
doesn't make much sense. The pointers to `Value`s are
themselves const, but the `Value`s are mutable.
A non-const member function implies that the object itself
can be modified but this doesn't make much sense considering
the return type: `Value * const * `, which is a pointer
to a constant array of pointers to mutable values.
This adds a meson.format file that mostly mirrors the projects
meson style and a pre-commit hook to enforce this style.
Some low-diff files are formatted.
