Matthew Bauer f69820417f Set kern.curproc_arch_affinity=0 to escape Rosetta 
By default, once you enter x86_64 Rosetta 2, macOS will try to run
everything in x86_64. So an x86_64 Nix will still try to use x86_64
even when system = aarch64-darwin. To avoid this we can set
kern.curproc_arch_affinity sysctl. With kern.curproc_arch_affinity=0,
we ignore this preference.

This is based on how
https://opensource.apple.com/source/system_cmds/system_cmds-880.40.5/arch.tproj/arch.c.auto.html
works. Completely undocumented, but seems to work!

Note, you can verify this works with this impure Nix expression:

```
  {
    a = derivation {
      name = "a";
      system = "aarch64-darwin";
      builder = "/bin/sh";
      args = [ "-e" (builtins.toFile "builder" ''
        [ "$(/usr/bin/arch)" = arm64 ]
        [ "$(/usr/bin/arch -arch x86_64 /bin/sh -c /usr/bin/arch)" = i386 ]
        [ "$(/usr/bin/arch -arch arm64 /bin/sh -c /usr/bin/arch)" = arm64 ]
        /usr/bin/touch $out
      '') ];
    };

    b = derivation {
      name = "b";
      system = "x86_64-darwin";
      builder = "/bin/sh";
      args = [ "-e" (builtins.toFile "builder" ''
        [ "$(/usr/bin/arch)" = i386 ]
        [ "$(/usr/bin/arch -arch x86_64 /bin/sh -c /usr/bin/arch)" = i386 ]
        [ "$(/usr/bin/arch -arch arm64 /bin/sh -c /usr/bin/arch)" = arm64 ]
        /usr/bin/touch $out
      '') ];
    };
  }
```

Nix

Open Collective supporters Test

Nix is a powerful package manager for Linux and other Unix systems that makes package management reliable and reproducible. Please refer to the Nix manual for more details.

Installation

On Linux and macOS the easiest way to install Nix is to run the following shell command (as a user other than root):

$ curl -L https://nixos.org/nix/install | sh

Information on additional installation methods is available on the Nix download page.

Building And Developing

See our Hacking guide in our manual for instruction on how to build nix from source with nix-build or how to get a development environment.
