Eelco Dolstra 6dd1087396 Fix Debian tests 
These actually run as root in a VM, so they get confused.

Eelco Dolstra a8c31d5011 Simplify multi-user installation instructions 2014-05-02 14:44:44 +02:00
Eelco Dolstra 696f960dee Set up directories and permissions for multi-user install automatically 
This automatically creates /nix/var/nix/profiles/per-user and sets the
permissions/ownership on /nix/store to 1775 and root:nixbld.

This removes the need to have a nix.conf, and prevents people from
accidentally running Nix builds as root.

Eelco Dolstra acb8facbbc Fix potential segfault in waitForInput() 
Since the addition of build-max-log-size, a call to
handleChildOutput() can result in cancellation of a goal.  This
invalidated the "j" iterator in the waitForInput() loop, even though
it was still used afterwards.  Likewise for the maxSilentTime
handling.

Probably fixes #231.  At least it gets rid of the valgrind warnings.

Eelco Dolstra 49009573bc Don't interpret strings as format strings 
Ludo reported this error:

  unexpected Nix daemon error: boost::too_few_args: format-string refered to more arguments than were passed

coming from this line:

  printMsg(lvlError, run.program + ": " + string(err, 0, p));

The problem here is that the string ends up implicitly converted to a
Boost format() object, so % characters are treated specially.  I
always assumed (wrongly) that strings are converted to a format object
that outputs the string as-is.

Since this assumption appears in several places that may be hard to
grep for, I've added some C++ type hackery to ensures that the right
thing happens.  So you don't have to worry about % in statements like

  printMsg(lvlError, "foo: " + s);

or

  throw Error("foo: " + s);

You don't want to use GLOBAL_CXXFLAGS for passing flags like

GLOBAL_CXXFLAGS when generating the PCH.

Eelco Dolstra c9f6232304 Correctly detect infinite recursion in function application 
If we're evaluating some application ‘v = f x’, we can't store ‘f’
temporarily in ‘v’, because if ‘f x’ refers to ‘v’, it will get ‘f’
rather than an infinite recursion error.

Unfortunately, this breaks the tail call optimisation introduced in
c897bac549.

Fixes #217.

Eelco Dolstra 29cde917fe Fix deadlock in SubstitutionGoal 
We were relying on SubstitutionGoal's destructor releasing the lock,
but if a goal is a top-level goal, the destructor won't run in a
timely manner since its reference count won't drop to zero.  So
release it explicitly.

Fixes #178.

Eelco Dolstra 1aa19b24b2 Add a flag ‘--check’ to verify build determinism 
The flag ‘--check’ to ‘nix-store -r’ or ‘nix-build’ will cause Nix to
redo the build of a derivation whose output paths are already valid.
If the new output differs from the original output, an error is
printed.  This makes it easier to test if a build is deterministic.
(Obviously this cannot catch all sources of non-determinism, but it
catches the most common one, namely the current time.)

For example:

  $ nix-build '<nixpkgs>' -A patchelf
  ...
  $ nix-build '<nixpkgs>' -A patchelf --check
  error: derivation `/nix/store/1ipvxsdnbhl1rw6siz6x92s7sc8nwkkb-patchelf-0.6' may not be deterministic: hash mismatch in output `/nix/store/4pc1dmw5xkwmc6q3gdc9i5nbjl4dkjpp-patchelf-0.6.drv'

The --check build fails if not all outputs are valid.  Thus the first
call to nix-build is necessary to ensure that all outputs are valid.

The current outputs are left untouched: the new outputs are either put
in a chroot or diverted to a different location in the store using
hash rewriting.
