When performing distributed builds of machine learning packages, it
would be nice if builders without the required SIMD instructions can
be excluded as build nodes.
Since x86_64 has accumulated a large number of different instruction
set extensions, listing all possible extensions would be unwieldy.
AMD, Intel, Red Hat, and SUSE have recently defined four different
microarchitecture levels that are now part of the x86-64 psABI
supplement and will be used in glibc 2.33:
https://gitlab.com/x86-psABIs/x86-64-ABIhttps://lwn.net/Articles/844831/
This change uses libcpuid to detect CPU features and then uses them to
add the supported x86_64 levels to the additional system types. For
example on a Ryzen 3700X:
$ ~/aps/bin/nix -vv --version | grep "Additional system"
Additional system types: i686-linux, x86_64-v1-linux, x86_64-v2-linux, x86_64-v3-linux
This is important when using tooling like BEAR to generate
compilation database since the used glibc version needs to match
for LD_PRELOAD to work. It might be also beneficial when building
on systems other than NixOS with nix develop since /bin/sh might
be not bash (which is what all nix devs use for testing).
This fix is not perfect because Makefile.config.in itself is
also build with make but strictly better than the status quo.
Our use of boost::coroutine2 depends on -lboost_context,
which in turn depends on `-lboost_thread`, which in turn depends
on `-lboost_system`.
I suspect that this builds on nix only because of low-level hacks
like NIX_LDFLAGS.
This commit passes the proper linker flags, thus fixing bootstrap
builds on non-nix distributions like Ubuntu 16.04.
With these changes, I can build Nix on Ubuntu 16.04 using:
./bootstrap.sh
./configure --prefix=$HOME/editline-prefix \
--disable-doc-gen \
CXX=g++-7 \
--with-boost=$HOME/boost-prefix \
EDITLINE_CFLAGS=-I$HOME/editline-prefix/include \
EDITLINE_LIBS=-leditline \
LDFLAGS=-L$HOME/editline-prefix/lib
make
where
* g++-7 comes from gcc-7 from
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-toolchain-r/+archive/ubuntu/test,
* editline 1.14 from https://github.com/troglobit/editline/releases/tag/1.14.0
was installed into `$HOME/editline-prefix`
(because Ubuntu 16.04's `editline` is too old to have the function nix uses),
* boost 1.66 from
https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_66_0/more/getting_started/unix-variants.html
was installed into $HOME/boost-prefix (because Ubuntu 16.04 only has 1.58)
It was forgotten to be removed with
commit c5f23f10a8
and so it until now stayed unsubstituted as `HAVE_READLINE = @HAVE_READLINE@`
in Makefile.config.
autotools-based systems usually allow user to
append own LDFLAGS like
LDFLAGS="-Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,--hash-style=gnu"
at ./configure stage
This change plumbs LDFLAGS through similar to existing CXXFLAGS variable.

* Look for both 'brotli' and 'bro' as external command,
since upstream has renamed it in newer versions.
If neither are found, current runtime behavior
is preserved: try to find 'bro' on PATH.
* Limit amount handed to BrotliEncoderCompressStream
to ensure interrupts are processed in a timely manner.
Testing shows negligible performance impact.
(Other compression sinks don't seem to require this)
And add a 116 KiB ash shell from busybox to the release build. This
helps to make sandbox builds work out of the box on non-NixOS systems
and with diverted stores.
Build logs on cache.nixos.org are compressed using Brotli (since this
allows them to be decompressed automatically by Chrome and Firefox),
so it's handy if "nix log" can decompress them.
We're going to use libseccomp instead of creating the raw BPF program,
because we have different syscall numbers on different architectures.
Although our initial seccomp rules will be quite small it really doesn't
make sense to generate the raw BPF program because we need to duplicate
it and/or make branches on every single architecture we want to suuport.

Previously, pkg-config was already queried for libsqlite3's and
libcurl's link flags. However they were not used, but hardcoded
instead. This commit replaces the hardcoded LDFLAGS by the ones
provided by pkg-config in a similar pattern as already used for
libsodium.
Sodium's Ed25519 signatures are much shorter than OpenSSL's RSA
signatures. Public keys are also much shorter, so they're now
specified directly in the nix.conf option ‘binary-cache-public-keys’.
The new command ‘nix-store --generate-binary-cache-key’ generates and
prints a public and secret key.
If a build log is not available locally, then ‘nix-store -l’ will now
try to download it from the servers listed in the ‘log-servers’ option
in nix.conf. For instance, if you have:
log-servers = http://hydra.nixos.org/log
then it will try to get logs from http://hydra.nixos.org/log/<base
name of the store path>. So you can do things like:
$ nix-store -l $(which xterm)
and get a log even if xterm wasn't built locally.
