All bazel fixed output derivations should be specific to the bazel
version that was used to generate them. There is not guarantee that the
build will still succeed or reproduces (without the cached fixed output)
if the fetch phase wasn't rerun with a different bazel version.
In the past bazel had been bumped but not all those packages that have
fixed outputs from bazel builds. This lead to compiling and somewhat
working TF versions that couldn't be reproduced without the cached fixed
outputs.
Nix now returns base64-encoded SRI hashes on hash mismatch. Usually,
people copy the returned hashes in TOFU fashion but since base64-encoded
strings can contain slashes, they often broke our use of them for temporary file name.
Escaping them should prevent the failures.
If we just want to write a non-compiled script (e.g. writeDash), it’s
usually a lot faster just doing it locally. That’s what
`runCommandLocal` was introduced for, so let’s use it in `writers`.
When the `paths` argument is too big `symlinkJoin` will fail with:
```
while setting up the build environment: executing '/nix/store/rm1hz1lybxangc8sdl7xvzs5dcvigvf7-bash-4.4-p23/bin/bash': Argument list too long
```
This is fixed by passing `paths` as a file instead of as an
environment variable.
`git repack` and `git gc` sometimes print “Nothing new to pack.”
to stdout, which breaks redirecting output to JSON file.
Let’s move the stdout of all git calls where it is not used to stderr
so that we still receive the info but it does not pollute our output.
Fixes#78744
My previous change broke when there are more packages than the maximum
number of layers. I had assumed that the `store-path-to-layer.sh` was
only ever passed a single store path, but that is not the case if
there are multiple packages going into the final layer. To fix this, we
loop through the paths going into the final layer, appending them to the
tar file and making sure they end up at the right path.
Changes the default fetcher in the Rust Platform to be the newer
`fetchCargoTarball`, and changes every application using the current default to
instead opt out.
This commit does not change any hashes or cause any rebuilds. Once integrated,
we will start deleting the opt-outs and recomputing hashes.
See #79975 for details.
The readme was nice to discuss in the implementation PR, but now that this is
merged it's better to have an issue that can be linked against in PRs and
doesn't require further merges to update status.
Ported with a status update in #79975
By overriding each dependency on every level of the dependency tree we
are creating a lot of unnecessary instances of the same derivation
Looking at the output size of `nix-instantiate --trace-function-calls
-vvvv …` and the execution time I got about a 10x improvement after
applying this change.
It was probably good intentions that lead to these overrides but in
practice no tooling (that I know of) really needs this. `carnix` and
`crate2nix` are fine without those overrides. Furthermore I believe that
it is the job of the tooling around `buildRustCrate` to provide a
coherent set of overrides. By not enforcing all of the overrides, debug
flags, verbosity, … to be the same throughout the closure we also allow
consumers to override specific aspects of the crates. Some (older?)
crates might need different `crateOverrides` then newer crates with the
same name. Currently such situations can not (easily) be implemented
with the override in-place.
This has several advantages:
1. It takes up less space on disk in-between builds in the nix store.
2. It uses less space in the binary cache for vendor derivation packages.
3. It uses less network traffic downloading from the binary cache.
4. It plays nicely with hashed mirrors like tarballs.nixos.org, which only
substitute --flat hashes on single files (not recursive directory hashes).
5. It's consistent with how simple `fetchurl` src derivations work.
6. It provides a stronger abstraction between input src-package and output
package, e.g., it's harder to accidentally depend on the src derivation at
runtime by referencing something like `${src}/etc/index.html`. Likewise, in
the store it's harder to get confused with something that is just there as a
build-time dependency vs. a runtime dependency, since the build-time
src dependencies are tarred up.
Disadvantages are:
1. It takes slightly longer to untar at the start of a build.
As currently implemented, this attaches the compacted vendor.tar.gz feature as a
rider on `verifyCargoDeps`, since both of them are relatively newly implemented
behavior that change the `cargoSha256`.
If this PR is accepted, I will push forward the remaining rust packages with a
series of treewide PRs to update the `cargoSha256`s.
Since a layer is reserved for "customization", the image can not
contains less than 2 layers.
The user gets the following message at evaluation:
