[se-StorePathName] was missing in the footnotes, and links to sets were wrong. Also rename serialization.md to types.md to match the title.

|
Because the daemon protocol only has one sender stream and one receiver stream
|
|
logging messages need to be carefully interleaved with requests and responses.
|
|
Usually this means that after the operation and all of its inputs (the request)
|
|
has been read logging hijacks the sender stream (in the server case) and uses
|
|
it to send typed logging messages while the request is being processed. When
|
|
the response has been generated it will send `STDERR_LAST` to mark that what
|
|
follows is the response data to the request. If the request failed a
|
|
`STDERR_ERROR` message is sent with the error and no response is sent.
|
|
|
|
While not in this state between request reading and response sending all
|
|
messages and activities are buffered until next time the logger can send data.
|
|
|
|
The logging messages supported are:
|
|
- [`STDERR_LAST`](#stderr_last)
|
|
- [`STDERR_ERROR`](#stderr_error)
|
|
- [`STDERR_NEXT`](#stderr_next)
|
|
- [`STDERR_READ`](#stderr_read)
|
|
- [`STDERR_WRITE`](#stderr_write)
|
|
- [`STDERR_START_ACTIVITY`](#stderr_start_activity)
|
|
- [`STDERR_STOP_ACTIVITY`](#stderr_stop_activity)
|
|
- [`STDERR_RESULT`](#stderr_result)
|
|
|
|
|
|
### `STDERR_LAST`
|
|
Marks the end of the logs, normal processing can resume.
|
|
|
|
- 0x616c7473 :: [UInt64][se-UInt64] (hardcoded, 'alts' in ASCII)
|
|
|
|
|
|
### `STDERR_ERROR`
|
|
This also marks the end of this log "session" and so it
|
|
has the same effect as `STDERR_LAST`.
|
|
On the client the error is thrown as an exception and no response is read.
|
|
|
|
#### If protocol version is 1.26 or newer
|
|
- 0x63787470 :: [UInt64][se-UInt64] (hardcoded, 'cxtp' in ASCII)
|
|
- error :: [Error][se-Error]
|
|
|
|
#### If protocol version is older than 1.26
|
|
- 0x63787470 :: [UInt64][se-UInt64] (hardcoded, 'cxtp' in ASCII)
|
|
- msg :: [String][se-String] (If logger is JSON, invalid UTF-8 is replaced with U+FFFD)
|
|
- exitStatus :: [Int][se-Int]
|
|
|
|
|
|
### `STDERR_NEXT`
|
|
Normal string log message.
|
|
|
|
- 0x6f6c6d67 :: [UInt64][se-UInt64] (hardcoded, 'olmg' in ASCII)
|
|
- msg :: [String][se-String] (If logger is JSON, invalid UTF-8 is replaced with U+FFFD)
|
|
|
|
|
|
### `STDERR_READ`
|
|
Reader interface used by ImportsPaths and AddToStoreNar (between 1.21 and 1.23).
|
|
It works by sending a *desired* buffer length and then on the receiver stream it
|
|
reads the *actual* buffer length followed by a bytes buffer of that length padded to
|
|
8 bytes. If it receives 0 bytes it sees this as an unexpected EOF.
|
|
|
|
- 0x64617461 :: [UInt64][se-UInt64] (hardcoded, 'data' in ASCII)
|
|
- desiredLen :: [Size][se-Size]
|
|
|
|
|
|
### `STDERR_WRITE`
|
|
Writer interface used by ExportPath. Simply writes a buffer.
|
|
|
|
- 0x64617416 :: [UInt64][se-UInt64] (hardcoded)
|
|
- buffer :: [Bytes][se-Bytes]
|
|
|
|
|
|
### `STDERR_START_ACTIVITY`
|
|
Begins an activity. In other tracing frameworks this would be called a span.
|
|
|
|
Implemented in protocol 1.20. To achieve backwards compatible with older
|
|
versions of the protocol instead of sending an `STDERR_START_ACTIVITY`
|
|
the level is checked against enabled logging level and the text field is
|
|
sent as a simple log message with `STDERR_NEXT`.
|
|
|
|
- 0x53545254 :: [UInt64][se-UInt64] (hardcoded, 'STRT' in ASCII)
|
|
- act :: [UInt64][se-UInt64]
|
|
- level :: [Verbosity][se-Verbosity]
|
|
- type :: [ActivityType][se-ActivityType]
|
|
- text :: [String][se-String] (If logger is JSON, invalid UTF-8 is replaced with U+FFFD)
|
|
- fields :: [List][se-List] of [Field][se-Field]
|
|
- parent :: [UInt64][se-UInt64]
|
|
|
|
|
|
act is atomic (nextId++ + (getPid() << 32))
|
|
|
|
|
|
### `STDERR_STOP_ACTIVITY`
|
|
Stops the given activity. The activity id should not send any more results.
|
|
Just sends `ActivityId`.
|
|
|
|
Implemented in protocol 1.20. When backwards compatible with older versions of
|
|
the protocol and this message would have been sent it is instead ignored.
|
|
|
|
- 0x53544f50 :: [UInt64][se-UInt64] (hardcoded, 'STOP' in ASCII)
|
|
- act :: [UInt64][se-UInt64]
|
|
|
|
|
|
### `STDERR_RESULT`
|
|
Sends results for a given activity.
|
|
|
|
Implemented in protocol 1.20. When backwards compatible with older versions of
|
|
the protocol and this message would have been sent it is instead ignored.
|
|
|
|
- 0x52534c54 :: [UInt64][se-UInt64] (hardcoded, 'RSLT' in ASCII)
|
|
- act :: [UInt64][se-UInt64]
|
|
- type :: [ResultType][se-ResultType]
|
|
- fields :: [List][se-List] of [Field][se-Field]
