We had fields set to the same values before in our test data. This is
not a problem per-se, but does mean we wouldn't catch certain mixups.
Now, the fields are set to distinct values (where possible), which makes
the test more robust.

Now, both the unit and functional tests relating to derivation options
are tested both ways -- with input addressing and content-addressing
derivations.
(cherry picked from commit 307dbe9914)
This requires that we refer to the `sourceInfo` instead of the
`result`. However, `sourceInfo` does not create a chain of basedir
resolution, so we add that back with `flakeDir`.
(cherry picked from commit 2109a5a206)
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`!
Progress on #7876
(cherry picked from commit cc24766fa6)
There are two big changes:
1. Public and private config is now separated. Configuration variables
that are only used internally do not go in a header which is
installed.
(Additionally, libutil has a unix-specific private config header,
which should only be used in unix-specific code. This keeps things a
bit more organized, in a purely private implementation-internal way.)
2. Secondly, there is no more `-include`. There are very few config
items that need to be publically exposed, so now it is feasible to
just make the headers that need them just including the (public)
configuration header.
And there are also a few more small cleanups on top of those:
- The configuration files have better names.
- The few CPP variables that remain exposed in the public headers are
now also renamed to always start with `NIX_`. This ensures they should
not conflict with variables defined elsewhere.
- We now always use `#if` and not `#ifdef`/`#ifndef` for our
configuration variables, which helps avoid bugs by requiring that
variables must be defined in all cases.
(cherry picked from commit c204e307ac)
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.
(cherry picked from commit f3e1c47f47)
- Some headers were completely redundant and have been removed.
- Other headers have been turned private.
- Unnecessary meson.build code has been removed.
- libutil-tests now has a private config header, where previously
it had none. This removes the need to expose a package version
macro publicly.
(cherry picked from commit b86a76044e)
Otherwise without the change the test fails on nix-2.26 as:
error: derivation contains an illegal reference specifier 'dev'
Note: the error message does not match intended change.
(cherry picked from commit 1e7c7244cf)
The bug reappeared after all, and the fix introduced a different bug. We
want to release 2.27 imminently so there is no time to do a proper fix,
which appears to require a larger reworking. Hopefully we will have it
for 2.28, however.
This reverts commit c98525235f.
E.g. in a derivation attribute `foo = ./bar`, if ./bar is a symlink,
we should copy the symlink to the store, not its target. This restores
the behaviour of Nix <= 2.19.
"content-address*ed*" derivation is misleading because all derivations
are *themselves* content-addressed. What may or may not be
content-addressed is not derivation itself, but the *output* of the
derivation.
The outputs are not *part* of the derivation (for then the derivation
wouldn't be complete before we built it) but rather separate entities
produced by the derivation.
"content-adddress*ed*" is not correctly because it can only describe
what the derivation *is*, and that is not what we are trying to do.
"content-address*ing*" is correct because it describes what the
derivation *does* --- it produces content-addressed data.
This seems to be the way to do it now, even though I can't run them
without setting at least one env var.
I'll only fix shellcheck for now. Don't shoot the messenger.
It isn't quite clear to me why the previous commit masked this problem,
but I'm glad shellcheck has an effect or more effect now.
This fixes dynamic derivations, reverting #9081.
I believe that this time around, #9052 is fixed. When I first rebased
this, tests were failing (which wasn't the case before). The cause of
those test failures were due to the crude job in which the outer goal
tried to exit with the inner goal's status.
Now, that error handling has been reworked to be more faithful. The exit
exit status and exception of the inner goal is returned by the outer
goal. The exception was what was causing the test failures, but I
believe it was not having the right error code (there is more than one
for failure) that caused #9081.
The only cost of doing things the "right way" was that I had to
introduce a hacky `preserveException` boolean. I don't like this, but,
then again, none of us like anything about how the scheduler works.
Issue #11927 is still there to clean everything up, subsuming the need
for any `preserveException` because I doubt we will be fishing
information out of state machines like this at all.
This reverts commit 8440afbed7.

This allows a flake to specify that it needs Git submodules to be
enabled (or disabled, if we ever change the default) on the top-level
flake. This requires the input to be refetched, but since the first
fetch is lazy, this shouldn't be expensive.
Currently the only attribute allowed by `inputs.self` is `submodules`,
but more can be added in the future (e.g. a `lazy` attribute to opt in
to lazy tree behaviour).
Fixes#5312, #9842.
