18f0ff003d configure.ac: use AC_SYS_LARGEFILE to determine how to enable 64-bit file size support 
Defining -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 works on most platforms, but not on all (i.e.
Solaris). Also, the Autoconf macro offers the user a switch to disable the
functionality in case of problems.

51ad64cc07 * Use xmllint (>= 2.7.4) for RelaxNG validation instead of Jing. 2009-09-18 11:45:56 +00:00

9856efc7b0 * Support doing a fully static build. Statically linked Nix binaries 
will be useful as a fallback on platforms for which there are no
  RPMs/Debs available.

77d272623f * NAR archives: handle files larger than 2^32 bytes. Previously it 
would just silently store only (fileSize % 2^32) bytes.
* Use posix_fallocate if available when unpacking archives.
* Provide a better error message when trying to unpack something that
  isn't a NAR archive.

c504d90c11 * Support i686-linux builds directly on x86_64-linux Nix 
installations.  This is implemented using the personality() syscall,
  which causes uname to return "i686" in child processes.

2b70a8e7c9 * Detect whether unshare() is available. 2008-12-12 13:41:36 +00:00

7c54f1603f * Do chroot builds in a private namespace. This means that all the 
bind-mounts we do are only visible to the builder process and its
  children.  So accidentally doing "rm -rf" on the chroot directory
  won't wipe out /nix/store and other bind-mounted directories
  anymore.  Also, the bind-mounts in the private namespace disappear
  automatically when the builder exits.

5d4eb9dd07 * Moved the build farm job for building Nix to the Nix tree. 2008-11-26 01:13:29 +00:00

2ab09a55cf * Bump the version number. 2008-11-20 21:51:58 +00:00

285d26374a * Don't set the prefix to /nix by default, rather use the Autoconf 
default of /usr/local.  However, localstatedir and storedir are set
  to /nix/var/nix and /nix/store respectively unless they're
  explicitly overriden.

b0e92f6d47 * Merged the no-bdb branch (-r10900:HEAD 
https://svn.nixos.org/repos/nix/nix/branches/no-bdb).

658816ddc9 * Make really sure that we use bash. The line 
NEED_PROG(shell, bash)

  actually uses the content of $shell if set, which often points at
  /bin/sh.

df303666bc * Use strsignal if available to give better error messages for 
builders that fail due to a signal.

0b95603595 * Depend on bash instead of sh (since we use a few bashisms). 2007-10-29 10:46:45 +00:00

42d80d1170 * On FreeBSD, sys/mount.h needs sys/param.h. 2007-10-29 10:03:07 +00:00

d91cd30563 * Detect whether chroot / bind-mount support is available. 2007-10-27 16:51:55 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
93aefd9fc0 * Give unpacked channels more sensible names than 0, 1, ... They now 
get the basename of the channel URL (e.g., nixpkgs-unstable).  The
  top-level Nix expression of the channel is now an attribute set, the
  attributes of which are the individual channels (e.g.,
  {nixpkgs_unstable = ...; strategoxt_unstable = ...}).  This makes
  attribute paths ("nix-env -qaA" and "nix-env -iA") more sensible,
  e.g., "nix-env -iA nixpkgs_unstable.subversion".

2716f9bc5f * It seems that svnversion prints a carriage return on Cygwin, so we 
get a invalid #define VERSION.  Use "svnversion -n" to leave out the
  newline.  Fix provided by Marc Weber.

db1973d012 * Look for the openssl program at compile time. If not found, call 
openssl through $PATH at runtime.

d03f0d4117 * Check for lchown. 2006-12-07 18:51:11 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
9f0efa6611 * Start of the setuid helper (the program that performs the operations 
that have to be done as root: running builders under different uids,
  changing ownership of build results, and deleting paths in the store
  with the wrong ownership).

84d6459bd5 * Use setreuid if setresuid is not available. 2006-12-03 14:32:22 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra
40b3f64b55 * Skeleton of the privileged worker program. 
* Some refactoring: put the NAR archive integer/string serialisation
  code in a separate file so it can be reused by the worker protocol
  implementation.

71e867c5f5 * Remove --enable-setuid, --with-nix-user and --with-nix-group. 
Rather, setuid support is now always compiled in (at least on
  platforms that have the setresuid system call, e.g., Linux and
  FreeBSD), but it must enabled by chowning/chmodding the Nix
  binaries.

e790404318 * Don't use the result of `uname -p' on x86_64 as it gives wacky 
results on some machines. (NIX-69)

1d694eef4c * Require Perl 5.8.0 or newer. I mean, it *is* more than four years 
old...

(NIX-22).

e5678b3435 * Map "ppc" to "powerpc" so that Linux on PowerPC will be reported as 
"powerpc-linux".

1a9a1f2768 * Convert to DocBook 5. 
* Use Jing for RelaxNG validation, xmllint seems buggy.

2d456fc35a * On Cygwin, set the system type to i686-cygwin, and disable dynamic 
linking.

03162f8f47 * Unless --with-bzip2 is specified, use a copy of bzip2 in the 
externals directory.  This is in particular useful because though
  most systems have bzip2/bunzip2, they don't always have libbz2,
  which we need for bsdiff/bspatch.

ddb78dfc3d * Check whether "nix-store -q --graph" generates a valid dot graph. 
* Test "nix-store -q --tree" as well.

Eelco Dolstra
d6f586d0ea * Optional switch "--with-openssl=<PATH>" to use OpenSSL's 
implementations of MD5, SHA-1 and SHA-256.  The main benefit is that
  we get assembler-optimised implementations of MD5 and SHA-1 (though
  not SHA-256 (at least on x86), unfortunately).  OpenSSL's SHA-1
  implementation on Intel is twice as fast as ours.

8291f6d968 * bsdiff updated to 4.3. This makes Nix depend on libbz2. 2006-02-01 16:48:49 +00:00
