eldritch horrors 8fb3b89d0f [WIP] libstore: remove a sinkToSouce from old daemon protocol
this doesn't have a test because this code path is only reached by
clients that predate 2.4, and we really should not be caring about
those any more right now. even the test suite doesn't, and the few
tests that might care are disabled because they will not even work

eldritch horrors 425f3e6964 [WIP] libstore: rewrite the nar parser as a contents generator
this is not completely necessary at this point because the parser right
now already returns a generator to pass through all input data it read,
but the nar parser *was* very lax and would accept nars that weren't in
canonical form (defined as the form dumpPath would return). nar hashing
depends on these things, and as such rewriting the parser now allows us
to reject non-canonical nars that extract to the same store contents as
their canonical counterpart, but have different nar hashes.

gcc 12 is broken and causes double frees when yielding certain types of
move-only values, so this also pins gcc to 13 for the default stdenv in
23.11-based builds.

eldritch horrors 2112a39d2e libstore: turn the NAR parser into a passthrough generator
this will let us turn copyNAR into a generator as well, which in turn is
necessary to turn the users of copyNAR into generators without resorting
to sinkToSource coroutines. currently this uses the SerializingTransform
in all cases, even for copyNAR where it is not necessary. should this be
a performance problem we can easily swap out the transform for one which
does not produce any bytes of its own, but that should not be necessary.

eldritch horrors 9f769794d9 libutil: rewrite RewritingSink as source
the rewriting sink was just broken. when given a rewrite set that
contained a key that is also a proper infix of another key it was
possible to produce an incorrectly rewritten result if the writer
used the wrong block size. fixing this duplicates rewriteStrings,
to avoid this we'll rewrite rewriteStrings to use RewritingSource
in a new mode that'll allow rewrites we had previously forbidden.

eldritch horrors d1230c7218 libutil: remove RewritingSink match/size tracking
size tracking can be done with a LengthSink and a tee. match tracking
was defeated by never having done any match tracking, all users would
see the same (empty) set of matches at all times. match tracking with
bytes offsets alone would not be sufficient in the general case, only
because computeHashModulo uses a single rewrite would it have worked.

this much more closely mimics what is actually happening: we're reading
data from somewhere else, actively, rather than passively waiting. with
the data flow matching the underlying system interactions better we can
remove a few sinkToSource calls that merely exists to undo the mismatch
caused by not treating subprocess output as a data source to begin with

eldritch horrors 14d539a274 libutil: return a program handle from runProgram2
this will let us also return a source for the program output later,
which will in turn make sinkToSource unnecessary for program output
processing. this may also reopen a path for provigin program input,
but that still needs a proper async io framework to avoid problems.

we start introducing more functions with must-use conditions we will
need such checking, and the rust stdlib has proven them very useful.

eldritch horrors 379a892afb libutil: begin porting serialization to generators
generators are a better basis for serializers than streaming into sinks
as we do currently for many reasons, such as being usable as sources if
one wishes to (without requiring an intermediate sink to serialize full
data sets into memory, or boost coroutines to turn sinks into sources),
composing more naturally (as one can just yield a sub-generator instead
of being forced to wrap entire substreams into clunky functions or even
more clunky custom types to implement operator<< on), allowing wrappers
to transform data with clear ownership semantics (removing the need for
explicit memory allocations and Source wrappers), and many other things

eldritch horrors 11307e04d1 libutil: generator type with on-yield value mapping
this will be the basis of non-boost coroutines in lix. anything that is
a boost coroutine *should* be representable with a Generator coroutine,
and many things that are not currently boost coroutines but behave much
like one (such as, notably, serializers) should be as well. this allows
us to greatly simplify many things that look like iteration but aren't.

eldritch horrors 3dd7d023f4 libmain: don't print empty lines
this most notably affects `nix eval`: if there is no progress bar to be
shown and no activities going on we should not print anything at all. a
progress bar with no activities would print a bunch of terminal escapes
*and a space*, which is not helpful in simple cases like nix eval -E 1.
notably this does *not* affect nix eval called on non-terminal outputs,
but it is slightly confusing nevertheless (and not difficult to avoid).

eldritch horrors e6cd67591b libexpr: rewrite the parser with pegtl instead of flex/bison
this gives about 20% performance improvements on pure parsing. obviously
it will be less on full eval, but depending on how much parsing is to be
done (e.g. including hackage-packages.nix or not) it's more like 4%-10%.

this has been tested (with thousands of core hours of fuzzing) to ensure
that the ASTs produced by the new parser are exactly the same as the old
one would have produced. error messages will change (sometimes by a lot)
and are not yet perfect, but we would rather leave this as is for later.

test results for running only the parser (excluding the variable binding
code) in a tight loop with inputs and parameters as given are promising:

  - 40% faster on lix's package.nix at 10000 iterations
  - 1.3% faster on nixpkgs all-packages.nix at 1000 iterations
  - equivalent on all of nixpkgs concatenated at 100 iterations
    (excluding invalid files, each file surrounded with parens)

more realistic benchmarks are somewhere in between the extremes, parsing
once again getting the largest uplift. other realistic workloads improve
by a few percentage points as well, notably system builds are 4% faster.

jadeandGerrit Code Review 3e151d4d77 Revert "libfetchers: make attribute / URL query handling consistent"
This reverts commit 35eec921af.

Reason for revert: Regressed nix-eval-jobs, and it appears to be this change is buggy/missing a case. It just needs another pass.

Code causing the problem in n-e-j, when invoked with `nix-eval-jobs --flake '.#hydraJobs'`:

```
n-e-j/tests/assets » ../../build/src/nix-eval-jobs --meta --workers 1 --flake .#hydraJobs
warning: unknown setting 'trusted-users'
warning: `--gc-roots-dir' not specified
error: unsupported Git input attribute 'dir'
error: worker error: error: unsupported Git input attribute 'dir'
```

```
  nix::Value *vRoot = [&]() {
        if (args.flake) {
            auto [flakeRef, fragment, outputSpec] =
                nix::parseFlakeRefWithFragmentAndExtendedOutputsSpec(
                    args.releaseExpr, nix::absPath("."));
            nix::InstallableFlake flake{
                {}, state, std::move(flakeRef), fragment, outputSpec,
                {}, {},    args.lockFlags};

            return flake.toValue(*state).first;
        } else {
            return releaseExprTopLevelValue(*state, autoArgs, args);
        }
    }();
```

Inspecting the program behaviour reveals that `dir` was in fact set in the URL going into the fetcher. This is in turn because unlike in the case changed in this commit, it was not erased before handing it to libfetchers, which is probably just a mistake.

Jade Lovelace d5637ee790 devShell: guard against running from another directory
I was working on nix-eval-jobs with a dev shell with some shenanigans to
run against a locally built Lix and it was getting really annoying when
`nix develop ../lix#` was messing up my other git repo's hooks.

This is a fix via blunt force, but it is at least obvious how it works.

Robert HensingandK900 d86009bd76 Add build-dir setting, clean up default TMPDIR handling
This is a squash of upstream PRs #10303, #10312 and #10883.

fix: Treat empty TMPDIR as unset

Fixes an instance of

    nix: src/libutil/util.cc:139: nix::Path nix::canonPath(PathView, bool): Assertion `path != ""' failed.

... which I've been getting in one of my shells for some reason.
I have yet to find out why TMPDIR was empty, but it's no reason for
Nix to break.

(cherry picked from commit c3fb2aa1f9d1fa756dac38d3588c836c5a5395dc)

fix: Treat empty XDG_RUNTIME_DIR as unset

See preceding commit. Not observed in the wild, but is sensible
and consistent with TMPDIR behavior.

Delan Azabani 5d33e4cd59 Fix build instructions in hacking.md and justfile
The stdenv phases don’t actually do anything (at least not anymore),
and our justfile doesn’t behave the same as our docs.

This patch removes the stdenv phases from the docs, documents our
usage of just, and makes `just setup` heed `$mesonFlags`.

Fixes #413.
Fixes #414.

Delan Azabani 3baffbdcc5 Fix compile error under gcc with -Denable-pch-std=false
Following the latest hacking.md currently fails because of a missing
include in upstream editline. This patch fixes the build by adding
that missing include.

Fixes #410.

eldritch horrors d477b34d1d libutil: remove runProgram2 stdin functionality
this was only used in one place, and that place has been rewritten to
use a temporary file instead. keeping this around is not very helpful
at this time, and in any case we'd be better off rewriting subprocess
handling in rust where we not only have a much safer library for such
things but also async frameworks necessary for this easily available.

eldritch horrors 2bbdaf0b19 libfetchers: write git commit message to tempfile
we want to remove runProgram's ability to provide stdin to a process
because the concurrency issues of handling both stdin and stdout are
much more pronounced once runProgram returns not is collected output
but a source. this is possible in the current c++ framework, however
it isn't necessary in almost all cases (as demonstrated by only this
single user existing) and in much better handled with a proper async
concurrency model that lets the caller handle both at the same time.
