The following patch is an attempt to address this bug (see
<http://bugs.gnu.org/18994>) by preserving the supplementary groups of
build users in the build environment.
In practice, I would expect that supplementary groups would contain only
one or two groups: the build users group, and possibly the “kvm” group.

Issue #564.

This is useful for the new hydra-queue-runner.

Not substituting builds with "preferLocalBuild = true" was a bad idea,
because it didn't take the cost of dependencies into account. For
instance, if we can't substitute a fetchgit call, then we have to
download/build git and all its dependencies.
Partially reverts 5558652709f27e8a887580b77b93c705659d7a4b and adds a
new derivation attribute "allowSubstitutes" to specify whether a
derivation may be substituted.

Hello!
The patch below adds a ‘verifyStore’ RPC with the same signature as the
current LocalStore::verifyStore method.
Thanks,
Ludo’.

This broke NixOS VM tests.
Mostly reverts 27b7b94923d2f207781b438bb7a57669bddf7d2b,
5ce50cd99e740d0d0f18c30327ae687be9356553,

This was causing NixOS VM tests to fail mysteriously since
5ce50cd99e740d0d0f18c30327ae687be9356553. Nscd could (sometimes) no
longer read /etc/hosts:
open("/etc/hosts", O_RDONLY|O_CLOEXEC) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
Probably there was some wacky interaction between the guest kernel and
the 9pfs implementation in QEMU.

If ‘build-use-chroot’ is set to ‘true’, fixed-output derivations are
now also chrooted. However, unlike normal derivations, they don't get
a private network namespace, so they can still access the
network. Also, the use of the ‘__noChroot’ derivation attribute is
no longer allowed.
Setting ‘build-use-chroot’ to ‘relaxed’ gives the old behaviour.
Note for Guix: unlike Nix commit 99897f6, we keep 'settings.useChroot'.
|
|
chroot only changes the process root directory, not the mount namespace root
directory, and it is well-known that any process with chroot capability can
break out of a chroot "jail". By using pivot_root as well, and unmounting the
original mount namespace root directory, breaking out becomes impossible.
Non-root processes typically have no ability to use chroot() anyway, but they
can gain that capability through the use of clone() or unshare(). For security
reasons, these syscalls are limited in functionality when used inside a normal
chroot environment. Using pivot_root() this way does allow those syscalls to be
put to their full use.

I.e., not readable to the nixbld group. This improves purity a bit for
non-chroot builds, because it prevents a builder from enumerating
store paths (i.e. it can only access paths it knows about).
|
|
Let's not just improve the error message itself, but also the behaviour
to actually work around the ntfs-3g symlink bug. If the readlink() call
returns a smaller size than the stat() call, this really isn't a problem
even if the symlink target really has changed between the calls.
So if stat() reports the size for the absolute path, it's most likely
that the relative path is smaller and thus it should also work for file
system bugs as mentioned in 93002d69fc58c2b71e2dfad202139230c630c53a.

A message like "error: reading symbolic link `...' : Success" really is
quite confusing, so let's not indicate "success" but rather point out
the real issue.
We could also limit the check of this to just check for non-negative
values, but this would introduce a race condition between stat() and
readlink() if the link target changes between those two calls, thus
leading to a buffer overflow vulnerability.
Reported by @Ericson2314 on IRC. Happened due to a possible ntfs-3g bug
where a relative symlink returned the absolute path (st_)size in stat()
while readlink() returned the relative size.

This is similar to commit b5ed5b6 in upstream Nix.
|
|
The pid field can be -1 if forking the substituter process failed.
|
|
Derivations are now built in order of derivation name, so a package
named "aardvark" is built before "baboon".
Fixes #399.

Especially in WAL mode on a highly loaded machine, this is not a good
idea because it results in a WAL file of approximately the same size
ad the database, which apparently cannot be deleted while anybody is
accessing it.
|
|
This was preventing destructors from running. In particular, it was
preventing the deletion of the temproot file for each worker
process. It may also have been responsible for the excessive WAL
growth on Hydra (due to the SQLite database not being closed
properly).
Apparently broken by accident in
8e9140cfdef9dbd1eb61e4c75c91d452ab5e4a74.

This gives 32-bit builds on x86_64-linux more memory.

Fixes #269.
|
|
|

In particular, this fixes "nix-build -o /tmp/result" on Mac OS X
(where /tmp is a symlink).
