eldritch horrors 5abf26a19f add a builtin-builder command for ... builtin builders
this will let us migrate the fork+do_stuff combo of builtin builders we
have today to fork+exec of this new command. we use a subcommand rather
than a simple libexec helper because we would like to avoid linking all
of lix into the simple libexec helpers if possible. this is only hookup
for the builders, none of the buiders are migrated here to ease review.

Raito BezariusandNiko Klanecek 728d2bfee7 contrib/plugins: add mTLS binary cache store plugin
Adds an example plugin implementing an mTLS-enabled binary cache store
(https+mtls:// scheme) using client certificates for authentication.

Darwin fix: don't link liblix* into plugins (host resolves symbols at
runtime via dynamic_lookup). Explicitly link curl so it binds to
Nix-store libcurl, not /usr/lib/libcurl. This prevents the plugin's
curl_easy_setopt calls from operating on the wrong libcurl instance.

Test portability: BSD sed -i wrapper, OpenSSL -sha256 for cert signing,
redirect test server output to log file.

eldritch horrors 9921615410 libutil: add libexec helper infrastructure
the new libexec directory is not available as a setting like other
directories (e.g. binDir) are since we consider libexec helpers to
be very internal. repointing them is like repointing a .so file we
dynamically link to; it can work, but needs much more preparation.

eldritch horrors dbdc3ee28c meson: unify pkgconfig files
merge all pkgconfig-found libraries into a single one and redirect all
existing lib files to the merged variant. the clean separation between
libraries is largely fictional anyway because the main config block is
in libstore and cannot reasonably be moved out, or because libutil has
assumptions built into its behavior that libmain later establishes, or
because libexpr messes with global boehmgc configuration. nearly every
kind of layering violation imaginable can be found *some*where in lix,
and not pretending that this is not the case will let us clean up some
of them. this will also allow us to merge these libraries at the meson
level which is itself necessary to make rust code easier to integrate.

Maximilian Bosch 8d21057d49 tests/functional2: use bash as builder
...and add both a static bash and busybox into the sandbox for building:

    $ /nix/store/fz43jxs5qfg5vldzk38y2hmrcl58qk18-busybox-1.36.1/bin/sh -c 'declare -A foo'
    /nix/store/fz43jxs5qfg5vldzk38y2hmrcl58qk18-busybox-1.36.1/bin/sh: declare: not found

The reason is that busybox's `sh` doesn't know about `declare` which
means it cannot build derivations with `__structuredAttrs = true;`.

Alois Wohlschlager 451a14980b libstore: use OpenSSL for Ed25519 signatures
Previously two cryptography libraries were linked into Lix: OpenSSL used for
hashing and (in usual configurations) indirectly via curl for TLS, and Sodium
used only for handling the Ed25519 path info signatures. The latter is
functionally redundant since OpenSSL supports the same use case as well.
Reimplement the Ed25519 handling using OpenSSL and drop Sodium.

4de09b6b54 packaging: bump toml11 to 4.4.0
This version changes the handling of TOML timestamps, and throws an
error on out‐of‐range integer literals rather than the previous
saturating behaviour, as required by [the TOML v1.0.0 specification]:

> Arbitrary 64-bit signed integers (from −2^63 to 2^63−1) should be
> accepted and handled losslessly. If an integer cannot be represented
> losslessly, an error must be thrown.

[the TOML v1.0.0 specification]: <https://toml.io/en/v1.0.0#integer>

The only known use of this is a questionable Nixpkgs test that I have
proposed [a fix] for.

[a fix]: <https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/433710>

Bumping this ahead of Nixpkgs ensures we can test these cases on
HEAD in advance. I presume that the next Lix major version will be
released after 25.05 goes out of support, so it should be fine to
drop support for the old version of toml11.

The co‐authors of this commit are the contributors to the vendored
package definition from Nixpkgs.

Sergei ZimmermanandEmily 2898b9e7dc libexpr: Canonicalize TOML timestamps for toml11 > 4.0
This addresses several changes from toml11 4.0 bump in
nixpkgs [1].

1. Added more regression tests for timestamp formats.
   Special attention needs to be paid to the precision
   of the subsecond range for local-time. Prior versions select the closest
   (upwards) multiple of 3 with a hard cap of 9 digits.

2. Normalize local datetime and offset datetime to always
   use the uppercase separator `T`. This is actually the issue
   surfaced in [2]. This canonicalization is basically a requirement
   by (a certain reading) of rfc3339 section 5.6 [3].

3. If using toml11 >= 4.0 also keep the old behavior wrt
   to the number of digits used for subsecond part of the local-time.

Commentator2.0andRutile 7869385b98 tests/functional2: Make Command Environment actually declarative
So far, the environment used by `command` was completely leaky and the
one used by `nix` was very leaky despite it trying to be a "hermetic"
environment.
This commit moves the hermaticity to `command` and changes its
implementation to be not leak anything.

To achieve this, the following changes were also nessecary:
- the `files` and `snapshot` fixture now use the folder `test-home`
within the tmp_path directory by default, as the `HOME` environment
variable is set to there. (extraction not possible due to dependencies
of command etc also using this directory)

Alois Wohlschlager 480fdf146d packaging: prelink static libraries that need to be linked fully
Some of the Lix libraries always need to be linked in full due to their
reliance on static initializers. This was achieved internally using link_whole,
but they are still easy to abuse by external users who manually need to
remember passing linker flags such as `--whole-archive` (GNU) or `-force_load`
(Apple), and the obvious way to shove it in pkg-config breaks Meson due to
potentially including a library's flags multiple times, and then deduplicating
only the file names leaving a stale `-force_load` around causing trouble.

Instead we now "prelink" the static libraries, by merging them into one object
file. Since the static linker will always link entire object files, this will
have the same effect as whole-archive linking (except the library won't be
included if it's completely unused, which should not cause trouble since it's
unused after all, and dynamic libraries behave the same way). Unfortunately
Meson's native prelink functionality cannot be used due to missing (non-Apple)
Clang support [1], so write our own one. While not particularly portable, it
should work with Clang which is the only officially supported compiler, as well
as GCC.

Meson only requires the `modules` option for Boost libraries that should be

container library; in fact we only do not run into the disallowedReferences
because the linker drops the unused library. Remove the misleading option.

OPNA2608andRaito Bezarius ce3e9e81b0 meson: Fix Meson CPU names for powerpc CPUs
Nixpkgs expects the `builtin.currentSystem` for POWER CPUs to be:

`powerpc[64][le]-linux`

But using `host_machine.cpu_family()` for the CPU part of the system
string on POWER produces this instead:

`ppc[64]-linux`

So evaluating Nixpkgs errors out on:

`error: Unknown CPU type: ppc64`

To fix this, change
`ppc` -> `powerpc`
`ppc64` -> `powerpc64`
and append `le` if `host_machine.endian() == 'little'`.

I can't actually test this on hardware rn due to hitting a kernel bug
on the host system when linking big things[1], but the approach here
is similar to how it was fixed in cppnix[2][3], so it *should* be fine.

This is a collection of Lix plugins that showcase how to write one for
various usecases.

The first is a mTLS store plugin that enable mTLS cache URIs
(`https+mtls://`).

We enable meson build system support for this plugin but we are not
going to distribute it in the official packaging of Lix, we will
repackage each relevant plugin downstream in Nixpkgs.

These plugins have *NO* guarantee support, they are provided as useful
references and are possibly production-ready if your usecase is simple
enough.

resemblances but our APIs are different, the tests harness is mostly
from CppNix).

sternenseemann 858de5f47a libcmd: add support for lowdown >= 1.4
lowdown 1.4.0 changed the lowdown_opts to include a new and separate
lowdown_opts_term which allows for configuring values specific to
-Tterm (which we're using). This version should have been called 2.0.0
according to semver, hence 2.0.0 was released later without any actual
breaking changes to sort of migitate the problem.

We need to support lowdown >= 1.3 && < 1.4 since the ship has sailed for
updating lowdown in NixOS 25.05 as well as lowdown >= 1.4 or we'll be
stuck in Nixpkgs forever. Support for < 1.4 can be dropped as soon as
NixOS 25.05 is EOL, assuming this change lands before NixOS 25.11
branch-off.

We detect the changed API based on the lowdown version from pkg-config
and define LOWDOWN_SEPARATE_TERM_OPTS based on that. The ifdef is named
according to the specific API change that impacts us, so that it's
hopefully a little simpler to maintain going forward. In the new API,
all newly configurable settings use what would have been the (implicit)
default before. Changing some of these values, especially hpadding,
could be interesting in future changes.

Compared to cl/3081, this change makes sure to initialize all new fields
of lowdown_opts_term explicitly.

It seems that, while making -Tterm more configurable, lowdown's word
wrapping behavior changed slightly which broke basic_repl.test. I've
chosen to work around this by using builtins.add as an example which has
a very short documentation string, so wrapping doesn't matter.

Jade Lovelace cad275307e observability: add the first USDT probe
USDT probes are statically defined trace points that have nearly zero
disabled-probe effect, i.e. we can put them in hot paths.

The use case for these is both similar and dissimilar to Rust tracing:
We still need better logging and a better structured rust-tracing
looking thing, but probes allow for quite easy programmable interactive
tracing in production, which we also care a lot about.

This CL comes with a perfunctory trace point in
libstore/file-transfer.cc for reading data out of the curl buffer. This
was mostly thrown in there so that I could see what the buffer sizes of
this were, and maybe be able to instrument the perf of the curl usages
in Lix in the future.

vigress8 fb1b211037 chore: remove monolithic coreutils requirement
It's only used in a couple of tests, and only in such a way that
replacing it with a random command suffices.
I also removed a few pointless uses of the variable.

Jade Lovelace 3caf3e1e08 testsuite: add a functional2 test suite based on pytest
I am tired of bad shell scripts, let me write bad python quickly
instead. It's definitely, $100%, better.

This is not planned as an immediate replacement of the old test suite,
but we::jade would not oppose tests getting ported.

What is here is a mere starting point and there is a lot more
functionality that we need.

Lulu 4ea8c9d643 Set c++ version to c++23
I followed @pennae's advice and moved the constructor definition of
`AttrName` from the header file `nixexpr.hh` to `nixexpr.cc`.

Lulu 43e79f4434 Fix gcc warning -Wmissing-field-initializers
The approach that was taken here was to add default values to the type
definitions rather than specify them whenever they are missing.

Now the only remaining warning is '-Wunused-parameter' which @jade said
is usually counterproductive and that we can just disable it:
https://git.lix.systems/lix-project/lix/issues/456#issuecomment-6617

So this change adds the flags '-Wall', '-Wextra' and
'-Wno-unused-parameter', so that all warnings are enabled except for
'-Wunused-parameter'.

Olivia Crain 4780dd6bc4 build: let meson add compiler flags for libstdc++ assertions
We have manually enabled libstdc++ assertions since cl/797. Meson 1.4.0
(the minimum version we mandate) enables this by default, so we can
remove the enabling compiler flag from the list of project arguments.

With this patch, `-D_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS=1` is still present in the
compile command logs when building with both gccStdenv and clangStdenv.

Olivia Crain b86863d935 build: require meson 1.4.0 or newer
This was already the de facto requirement, we use the method `full_path`
on a file object (introduced in Meson 1.4.0) in the functional test
suite's build.

This version of Meson is in NixOS 24.05, so there should be no
compatibility issues should this make it into a backported release of
Lix.

Olivia Crain 624f44bf25 build: fix deprecated uses of configure_file
Using `configure_file` to copy files has been deprecated since Meson 0.64.0.
The intended replacement is the `fs.copyfile` method.

This removes the following deprecation warning that arises when a minimum
Meson version is specified:

``
Project [...] uses feature deprecated since '0.64.0': copy arg in configure_file. Use fs.copyfile instead
``

eldritch horrors c14486ae8d forbid gcc for compilation, only allow clang
while gcc 12 and older miscompile our generators, gcc 13 and older
outright crash on kj coroutines. (newer gcc versions may fix this)

eldritch horrors f2a49032a6 libstore: turn Worker in a kj event loop user
using a proper event loop basis we no longer have to worry about most of
the intricacies of poll(), or platform-dependent replacements for it. we
may even be able to use the event loop and its promise system for all of
our scheduling in the future. we don't do any real async processing yet,
this is just preparation to separate the first such change from the huge
api design difference with the async framework we chose (kj from capnp):

kj::Promise, unlike std::future, doesn't return exceptions unmangled. it
instead wraps any non-kj exception into a kj exception, erasing all type
information and preserving mostly the what() string in the process. this
makes sense in the capnp rpc use case where unrestricted exception types
can't be transferred, and since it moves error handling styles closer to
a world we'd actually like there's no harm in doing it only here for now

Jade Lovelace af546be205 build: remove approximately 400 seconds of CPU time (30%)
This took parsing time from 1421s or so to 1060s or so. The reason is
entirely nlohmann. All of the stuff below is just Obliterated because it's
built in the PCH instead:

**** Templates that took longest to instantiate:
219051 ms: nlohmann::basic_json<>::parse<const char *> (276 times, avg 793 ms)
169675 ms: nlohmann::basic_json<>::basic_json (1127 times, avg 150 ms)
129416 ms: nlohmann::detail::parser<nlohmann::basic_json<>, nlohmann::detail::i... (276 times, avg 468 ms)
 98155 ms: nlohmann::detail::parser<nlohmann::basic_json<>, nlohmann::detail::i... (276 times, avg 355 ms)
 81322 ms: nlohmann::basic_json<>::json_value::json_value (1405 times, avg 57 ms)
 53531 ms: nlohmann::detail::json_sax_dom_callback_parser<nlohmann::basic_json<... (276 times, avg 193 ms)

clang-only. This brings the clang build time to not far from *half* of
the gcc build time.

Also, clang does not enjoy so much to miscompile coroutines. Maybe we
should just be clang-only.
