Implements a high-level API on top of POSIX message queues
(mq_overview(7)).
This API can be used to perform local RPC between processes that need
to exchange messages *fast* (or *easy*) with priority ordering.
The methods are mostly documented but there are still two corner cases
that need to be looked at and a lot of tests missing.
The global Helm fuzzy matching doesn't actually seem to enable fuzzy
matching for modes that have an explicit config.
This enables fuzzy matching for M-x and C-x b
The wallpaper folder is now in git and feh will pick any random file in
the folder that it is pointed at, leading to it constantly failing while
trying to set git objects as the wallpaper.
This uses manual 'fd | shuf | xargs' pipeline for the same purpose.
Adds NixOS configuration to configure my base system with all sorts of things,
including - but not limited to - i3, emacs, FF57, connman and so on.
Not all of these things are fully configured yet (especially in the desktop
environment) but I'm hoping to get more of that done in the future.
I needed this to test ACL/xattr removal in
canonicalisePathMetaData(). Might also be useful if you need to build
old Nixpkgs that doesn't have the required patches to remove
setuid/setgid creation.
The worker threads could exit prematurely if they finished processing
all items while the main thread was still adding items. In particular,
this caused hanging nix-store --serve processes in the build farm.
Also, process items from the main thread.
The path /root/.nix-profile is a sym-link to /nix/var/nix/profiles/default. The
latter path, however, works for everyone while the former path works only for
root, so we prefer the public path whenever possible.
I got sick of trying to find the failures in the sea of debug output, so
we now:
- Hide test output unless it fails
- Sprinkle in some simple color
- Pad results for a more tabular look
If Nix is getting a more friendly user interface, we might as well get
a friendlier developer interface, right? :)
