Files smaller than 8 KiB typically represent ~70% of the entries in
/gnu/store/.links but only contribute to ~4% of the space savings
afforded by deduplication.
Not considering these files for deduplication speeds up file insertion
in the store and, more importantly, leaves 'removeUnusedLinks' with
fewer entries to traverse, thereby speeding it up proportionally.
Partly fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/24937>.
* config-daemon.ac: Remove symlink hard link check and CAN_LINK_SYMLINK
definition.
* guix/store/deduplication.scm (%deduplication-minimum-size): New
variable.
(deduplicate)[loop]: Do not recurse when FILE's size is below
%DEDUPLICATION-MINIMUM-SIZE.
(dump-port): New procedure.
(dump-file/deduplicate)[hash]: Turn into...
[dump-and-compute-hash]: ... this thunk.
Call 'deduplicate' only when SIZE is greater than
%DEDUPLICATION-MINIMUM-SIZE; otherwise call 'dump-port'.
* nix/libstore/gc.cc (LocalStore::removeUnusedLinks): Drop files where
st.st_size < deduplicationMinSize.
* nix/libstore/local-store.hh (deduplicationMinSize): New declaration.
* nix/libstore/optimise-store.cc (deduplicationMinSize): New variable.
(LocalStore::optimisePath_): Return when PATH is a symlink or smaller
than 'deduplicationMinSize'.
* tests/derivations.scm ("identical files are deduplicated"): Produce
files bigger than %DEDUPLICATION-MINIMUM-SIZE.
* tests/nar.scm ("restore-file-set with directories (signed, valid)"):
Likewise.
* tests/store-deduplication.scm ("deduplicate, below %deduplication-minimum-size"):
New test.
("deduplicate", "deduplicate, ENOSPC"): Produce files bigger than
%DEDUPLICATION-MINIMUM-SIZE.
* tests/store.scm ("substitute, deduplication"): Likewise.
Without this invoking ‘make clean’ would remove ‘guix-gc.timer’, and ‘make’
would fail with.
make[2]: *** No rule to make target 'etc/guix-gc.timer', needed by 'all-am'. Stop.
* nix/local.mk (nodist_systemdservice_DATA): Remove ‘guix-gc.timer’.
This avoids the situation where error messages would unintentionally go
to stderr and be wrongfully interpreted as a reply by the daemon.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/46362>.
This is a followup to ee3226e9d5.
* guix/scripts/substitute.scm (display-narinfo-data): Add 'port'
parameter and honor it.
(process-query): Likewise.
(process-substitution): Likewise.
(%error-to-file-descriptor-4?, with-redirected-error-port): Remove.
(%reply-file-descriptor): New variable.
(guix-substitute): Remove use of 'with-redirected-error-port'. Define
'reply-port' and pass it to 'process-query' and 'process-substitution'.
* nix/libstore/build.cc (SubstitutionGoal::handleChildOutput): Swap
'builderOut' and 'fromAgent'.
* nix/libstore/local-store.cc (LocalStore::getLineFromSubstituter):
Likewise.
* tests/substitute.scm <top level>: Set '%reply-file-descriptor'
rather than '%error-to-file-descriptor-4?'.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/47229>.
Reported by Nathan Nye of WhiteBeam Security.
* nix/libstore/build.cc (DerivationGoal::startBuilder): When 'useChroot'
is true, add "/top" to 'tmpDir'.
(DerivationGoal::deleteTmpDir): Adjust accordingly. When
'settings.keepFailed' is true, chown in two steps: first the "/top"
sub-directory, and then rename "/top" to its parent.
Previously, we'd get:
$ guix-daemon --discover
error: basic_string::_M_construct null not valid
* nix/nix-daemon/guix-daemon.cc (parse_opt): Change second argument to
'settings.set' to properly handle case where ARG is NULL.
This removes the main source of latency between subsequent downloads.
* nix/libstore/build.cc (SubstitutionGoal::tryToRun): Add a
"deduplicate" key to ENV.
(SubstitutionGoal::finished): Remove call to 'optimisePath'.
* guix/scripts/substitute.scm (process-substitution)[destination-in-store?]
[dump-file/deduplicate*]: New variables.
Pass #:dump-file to 'restore-file'.
* guix/scripts/substitute.scm (guix-substitute)[deduplicate?]: New
variable.
Pass #:deduplicate? to 'process-substitution'.
* guix/serialization.scm (dump-file): Export and augment 'dump-file'.
'guix substitute' now takes care of it via 'restore-file'.
* nix/libstore/build.cc (SubstitutionGoal::finished): Remove call to
'canonicalisePathMetaData'.
This way, the hash of the store item can be computed as it is restored,
thereby avoiding an additional file tree traversal ('hashPath' call)
later on in the daemon. Consequently, it should reduce latency between
subsequent substitute downloads.
This is a followup to 5ff521452b.
* guix/scripts/substitute.scm (narinfo-hash-algorithm+value): New
procedure.
(process-substitution): Wrap INPUT into a hash input port, 'hashed', and
read from it. Compare the actual and expected hashes, and print a
"hash-mismatch" status line when they differ. When they match, print
not just "success" but also the nar hash and size.
* nix/libstore/build.cc (class SubstitutionGoal)[expectedHashStr]:
Remove.
(SubstitutionGoal::finished): Tokenize 'status'. Parse it and handle
"success" and "hash-mismatch" accordingly. Call 'hashPath' only when
the returned hash is not SHA256.
(SubstitutionGoal::handleChildOutput): Remove 'expectedHashStr'
handling.
* tests/substitute.scm ("substitute, invalid hash"): Rename to...
("substitute, invalid narinfo hash"): ... this.
("substitute, invalid hash"): New test.
It was already impossible in practice for 'expectedHashStr' to be empty
if 'status' == "success".
* nix/libstore/build.cc (SubstitutionGoal::finished): Throw 'SubstError'
when 'expectedHashStr' is empty.
That way, when fetching a series of substitutes from the same server(s),
the connection is reused instead of being closed/opened for each
substitutes, which saves on network round trips and TLS handshakes.
* guix/http-client.scm (http-fetch): Add #:keep-alive? and honor it.
* guix/progress.scm (progress-report-port): Add #:close? parameter and
honor it.
* guix/scripts/substitute.scm (at-most): Return the tail as a second
value.
(fetch): Add #:port and #:keep-alive? and honor them.
(%max-cached-connections): New variable.
(open-connection-for-uri/cached, call-with-cached-connection): New
procedures.
(with-cached-connection): New macro.
(process-substitution): Wrap 'fetch' call in 'with-cached-connection'.
Pass #:close? to 'progress-report-port'.
This avoids spawning one substitute process per substitution.
* nix/libstore/build.cc (class Worker)[substituter]: New field.
[outPipe, logPipe, pid]: Remove.
(class SubstitutionGoal)[expectedHashStr, status, substituter]: New fields.
(SubstitutionGoal::timedOut): Adjust to check 'substituter'.
(SubstitutionGoal::tryToRun): Remove references to 'outPipe' and
'logPipe'. Run "guix substitute --substitute" as an 'Agent'. Send the
request with 'writeLine'.
(SubstitutionGoal::finished): Likewise.
(SubstitutionGoal::handleChildOutput): Change to fill in
'expectedHashStr' and 'status'.
(SubstitutionGoal::handleEOF): Call 'wakeUp' unconditionally.
(SubstitutionGoal::~SubstitutionGoal): Adjust to check 'substituter'.
* guix/scripts/substitute.scm (process-substitution): Write "success\n"
to stdout upon success.
(%error-to-file-descriptor-4?): New variable.
(guix-substitute): Set 'current-error-port' to file descriptor 4
unless (%error-to-file-descriptor-4?) is false.
Remove "--substitute" arguments. Loop reading line from stdin.
* tests/substitute.scm <top level>: Call '%error-to-file-descriptor-4?'.
(request-substitution): New procedure.
("substitute, no signature")
("substitute, invalid hash")
("substitute, unauthorized key")
("substitute, authorized key")
("substitute, unauthorized narinfo comes first")
("substitute, unsigned narinfo comes first")
("substitute, first narinfo is unsigned and has wrong hash")
("substitute, first narinfo is unsigned and has wrong refs")
("substitute, two invalid narinfos")
("substitute, narinfo with several URLs"): Adjust to new "guix
substitute --substitute" calling convention.
* nix/libstore/local-store.hh (class LocalStore)[substituter]: New
method.
[runningSubstituter]: Turn into a shared_ptr.
* nix/libstore/local-store.cc (LocalStore::querySubstitutablePaths):
Call 'substituter' instead of using inline code.
(LocalStore::querySubstitutablePathInfos): Likewise.
(LocalStore::substituter): New method.
* nix/libstore/local-store.hh (RunningSubstituter): Remove.
(LocalStore)[runningSubstituter]: Change to unique_ptr<Agent>.
[setSubstituterEnv, didSetSubstituterEnv]: Remove.
[getLineFromSubstituter, getIntLineFromSubstituter]: Take an 'Agent'.
* nix/libstore/local-store.cc (LocalStore::~LocalStore): Remove
reference to 'runningSubstituter'.
(LocalStore::setSubstituterEnv, LocalStore::startSubstituter): Remove.
(LocalStore::getLineFromSubstituter): Adjust to 'run' being an 'Agent'.
(LocalStore::querySubstitutablePaths): Spawn substituter agent if
needed. Adjust to 'Agent' interface.
(LocalStore::querySubstitutablePathInfos): Likewise.
* nix/libstore/build.cc (SubstitutionGoal::tryToRun): Remove call to
'setSubstituterEnv' and add 'setenv' call for "_NIX_OPTIONS" instead.
(SubstitutionGoal::finished): Remove 'readLine' call for 'dummy'.
* guix/scripts/substitute.scm (%allow-unauthenticated-substitutes?):
Remove second argument to 'make-parameter'.
(process-query): Call 'warn-about-missing-authentication'
when (%allow-unauthenticated-substitutes?) is #t.
(guix-substitute): Wrap body in 'parameterize'. Set 'guix-warning-port'
too. No longer exit when 'substitute-urls' returns the empty list. No
longer print newline initially.
* tests/substitute.scm (test-quit): Parameterize 'current-error-port' to
account for the port changes in 'guix-substitute'.
Fixes <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/40144>.
Until now, the '--rounds' option, when also using '--check', was ignored.
This change makes it possible to use both, so that an item that has already
been built once can be rebuilt as many times as desired.
* nix/libstore/build.cc: Remove the conditionals causing the daemon to
complete a build task early when 'buildMode' is equal to 'nix::bmCheck'.

Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/43668>.
Previously, guix-daemon would try to run GNU/Hurd executables on
GNU/Linux. execve(2) would succeed, but the executable would
immediately crash.
This change prevents it from attempting to execute "i586-gnu" code on
"*-linux", while preserving the binfmt_misc-friendly behavior
implemented in commit 7bf2a70a4f.
* nix/libstore/build.cc (sameOperatingSystemKernel): New function.
(DerivationGoal::runChild): Call 'execve' only when
'sameOperatingSystemKernel' returns true.
Previously, we'd spawn 'guix authenticate' once for each item that has
to be signed (when exporting) or authenticated (when importing). Now,
we spawn it once for all and then follow a request/reply protocol. This
reduces the wall-clock time of:
guix archive --export -r $(guix build coreutils -d)
from 30s to 2s.
* guix/scripts/authenticate.scm (sign-with-key): Return the signature
instead of displaying it. Raise a &formatted-message instead of calling
'leave'.
(validate-signature): Likewise.
(read-command): New procedure.
(define-enumerate-type, reply-code): New macros.
(guix-authenticate)[send-reply]: New procedure.
Change to read commands from current-input-port.
* nix/libstore/local-store.cc (runAuthenticationProgram): Remove.
(authenticationAgent, readInteger, readAuthenticateReply): New
functions.
(signHash, verifySignature): Rewrite in terms of the agent.
* tests/store.scm ("import not signed"): Remove 'pk' call.
("import signed by unauthorized key"): Check the error message of C.
* tests/guix-authenticate.sh: Rewrite using the new protocol.
fixlet
* nix/libstore/build.cc (DerivationGoal::tryBuildHook): Add "offload" to
'args' and pass settings.guixProgram as the first argument to
Agent::Agent.
(pathNullDevice, commonChildInit, Agent, Agent::Agent)
(Agent::~Agent): Move to...
* nix/libutil/util.cc: ... here.
* nix/libutil/util.hh (struct Agent, commonChildInit): New
declarations.
* nix/libstore/local-store.cc (signHash, verifySignature): New
functions.
(LocalStore::exportPath): Use 'signHash' instead of inline code.
(LocalStore::importPath): Use 'verifySignature' instead of inline code.
* nix/libstore/build.cc (HookInstance): Rename to...
(Agent): ... this. Rename 'toHook' and 'fromHook' similarly and update
users. Change constructor to require a command and an argument list.
(DerivationGoal::tryBuildHook): Pass arguments to the 'Agent'
constructor.
There's no reason at this point to mimic the calling convention of the
'openssl' command.
* nix/libstore/local-store.cc (LocalStore::exportPath): Add only "sign"
and HASH to ARGS. Remove 'tmpDir' and 'hashFile'.
(LocalStore::importPath): Add only "verify" and SIGNATURE to
* guix/scripts/authenticate.scm (guix-authenticate): Adjust
accordingly; remove the OpenSSL-style clauses.
(read-hash-data): Remove.
(sign-with-key): Replace 'port' with 'sha256' and adjust accordingly.
(validate-signature): Export SIGNATURE to be a canonical sexp.
* tests/guix-authenticate.sh: Adjust tests accordingly.
Suggested by Caleb Ristvedt <caleb.ristvedt@cune.org>.
* nix/libstore/optimise-store.cc (LocalStore::optimisePath_): Save errno
from 'rename' before calling 'unlink'.
Remove .gitignore entries where they match source files that are tracked in
Git. This is relevant to me at least, as some code searching tools use
.gitignore files and will ignore matched files.
Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/41607>.
Reported by Stephen Scheck <singularsyntax@gmail.com>.
* nix/libstore/gc.cc (LocalStore::deletePathRecursive): When we try to
move a dead directory into the trashDir using rename(2) but it returns
an EXDEV error, just delete the directory instead. This can happen in a
Docker container when the directory is not on the "top layer".
This follows up on 1a1faa78b0, and avoids
the (non-fatal) error seen in <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/41356>.
/gnu/store will remain writable on new foreign distribution
installations until the next release.
* etc/guix-install.sh (sys_enable_guix_daemon): Check for
‘gnu-store.mount’ presence before trying to cp it.
Update forgotten copyright header.
* etc/gnu-store.mount.in: New file.
* nix/local.mk (nodist_systemdservice_DATA): Add it.
(etc/%.mount): New rule for it.
* etc/guix-install.sh (sys_enable_guix_daemon): Install it.
* doc/guix.texi (Binary Installation): Document it.
* .gitignore: Ignore changes to it.
This allows for native builds on the Hurd, doing
sudo ./pre-inst-env guix-daemon --disable-chroot --build-users-group=guixbuild &
./pre-inst-env guix build hello
* nix/libutil/util.cc (killUser)[__GNU__]: Avoid kill -1 bug; kill only
current process and ignore SIGKILL status in parent.

Checking for CLONE_NEWNS is only needed for using tha Linux specific clone(2),
otherwise we can use fork(2). Using clone on the Hurd needs some work, only
support LINUX for now. See
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2020-03/msg00190.html
* nix/libstore/build.cc (CHROOT_ENABLED): Break into CHROOT_ENABLED
and CLONE_ENABLED.
(DerivationGoal::startBuilder): Replace CHROOT_ENABLED with __linux__.
(DerivationGoal::runChild): Only define pivot_root() if SYS_pivot_root is
defined.

* nix/libstore/gc.cc (LocalStore::removeUnusedLinks) [HAVE_STATX]: Add
'statx_flags' static variables. Clear 'AT_STATX_DONT_SYNC' flag from
'statx_flags' when 'statx' returns EINVAL.
Previously, a store item that is a regular file would not be accounted
for in the 'bytesFreed' value computed by 'deletePath' because its
'st_nlink' count would always be >= 2. This commit fixes that.
* nix/libutil/util.hh (deletePath): Add optional 'linkThreshold' argument.
* nix/libutil/util.cc (_deletePath): Add 'linkThreshold' argument and
honor it. Pass it down in recursive call.
(deletePath): Add 'linkThreshold' and honor it.
* nix/libstore/gc.cc (LocalStore::deleteGarbage): Pass 'linkThreshold'
argument to 'deletePath', with a value of 2 when PATH is a store item
and deduplication is on.
This is a followup to bc69ea2d60.
* guix/scripts/build.scm (show-build-options-help): Rename
"--no-build-hook" to "--no-offload".
(%standard-build-options): Likewise, and warn when "--no-build-hook" is

* nix/nix-daemon/guix-daemon.cc (options): Add "--no-offload" and mark
"--no-build-hook" as hidden.
* guix/scripts/offload.scm: Adjust comment.
* doc/guix.texi (Invoking guix-daemon, Common Build Options): Replace
"--no-build-hook" with "--no-offload".
