Makes any programming errors more likely to show up early.
Non-obvious changes because of this:
- Ignore the `evalConfig` result in `reportFailure`; we're not checking
it at that point.
- Pre-increment `$fail` and `$pass` to make sure the arithmetic doesn't
result in a zero, which would result in a non-zero exit code for the
expression.
mkDerivedConfig : Option a -> (a -> Definition b) -> Definition b
Create config definitions with the same priority as the definition of another option.
This should be used for option definitions where one option sets the value of another as a convenience.
For instance a config file could be set with a `text` or `source` option, where text translates to a `source`
value using `mkDerivedConfig options.text (pkgs.writeText "filename.conf")`.
It takes care of setting the right priority using `mkOverride`.
The current implementation of `mutuallyExclusive` builds a new list with
length subtracted by one on every recursive call which is expensive. When
b is empty, the function still traverses a in its entirety before returning
a result.
The new implementation uses `any` to check if each element of list b is in
list a using `elem`. This maintains short circuiting when list a or b is empty
and has a worst case time complexity of O(nm).
the fix to extendDerivation in #140051 unwittingly worsened eval performance by
quite a bit. set elements alone needed over 1GB extra after the change, which
seems disproportionate to how small it was. if we flip the logic used to
determine which outputs to install around and keep a "this one exactly" flag in
the specific outputs instead of a "all of them" in the root we can avoid most
of that cost.
if extendDerivation is called on something that already had extendDerivation
called on it (eg a mkDerivation result) the second call will set
outputUnspecified=true on every output by way of propagating attributes of the
full derivation to the individual outputs. this in turn causes buildEnv--and
thus nix-shell and environment.systemPackages--to install every output of such a
derivation even when only a specific output was requested, which renders the
point of multiple outputs moot. this happens in python modules (see #139756),
though it seems that tcl and possibly others should also be affected.
PowerNV was looking for a nonexisting zImage file.
Remove unnecessary .file / .installTarget.
Also add config options needed for default minimal
NixOS config and QEMU VirtIO/VirtFS devices.
I'm working on a project that involves running a virtual machine
monitor program, which creates a control socket in the project
directory (because it doesn't make sense to put it anywhere else).
This obviously isn't part of the source of my program, so I think
cleanSource should filter it out.
Consider a derivation a value to be serialized.
nix-repl> lib.generators.toGitINI { hello = { drv = pkgs.hello; }; }
error: evaluation aborted with the following error message: 'generators.mkValueStringDefault: attrsets not supported: <derivation /nix/store/533q15q67sl6dl0272dyi7m7w5pwkkjh-hello-2.10.drv>'
Fixes#137390
