Existing "mips64el" should be "mipsel".
This is just the barest minimum so that nixpkgs can recognize them as
systems - although required for building individual derivations onto
MIPS boards, it is not sufficient if you want to actually build nixos on
those targets
Note this doesn't actually provide musl support yet,
just improves our "system" code to understand
musl-based triples and non-glibc linux configurations.
This does break the API of being able to import any lib file and get
its libs, however I'm not sure people did this.
I made this while exploring being able to swap out docFn with a stub
in #2305, to avoid functor performance problems. I don't know if that
is going to move forward (or if it is a problem or not,) but after
doing all this work figured I'd put it up anyway :)
Two notable advantages to this approach:
1. when a lib inherits another lib's functions, it doesn't
automatically get put in to the scope of lib
2. when a lib implements a new obscure functions, it doesn't
automatically get put in to the scope of lib
Using the test script (later in this commit) I got the following diff
on the API:
+ diff master fixed-lib
11764a11765,11766
> .types.defaultFunctor
> .types.defaultTypeMerge
11774a11777,11778
> .types.isOptionType
> .types.isType
11781a11786
> .types.mkOptionType
11788a11794
> .types.setType
11795a11802
> .types.types
This means that this commit _adds_ to the API, however I can't find a
way to fix these last remaining discrepancies. At least none are
_removed_.
Test script (run with nix-repl in the PATH):

attrs_to_check() {
repl "${1:-}" \
| tr ';' $'\n' \
| grep "\.\.\." \
| cut -d' ' -f2 \
| sed -e "s/^/${1:-}./" \
| sort
}
summ() {
repl "${1:-}" \
| tr ' ' $'\n' \
| sort \
| uniq
}
deep_summ() {
suff="${1:-}"
depth="${2:-4}"
depth=$((depth - 1))
summ "$suff"
for attr in $(attrs_to_check "$suff" | grep -v "types.types"); do
if [ $depth -eq 0 ]; then
summ "$attr" | sed -e "s/^/$attr./"
else
deep_summ "$attr" "$depth" | sed -e "s/^/$attr./"
fi
done
