* cross-compilation.chapter.md: give examples of all depFooBar casesAdam Joseph2022-04-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit describes the "->" notation for dependency types in greater detail, and uses g++ to provide examples of all six cases (although the host->target and target->target examples are a bit artificial). It also adds three more rows to the table for the "->*" dependency types for non-compiler-like packages; these dependency types were already present in the documentation but the "*" was not really explained. Lastly, this commit adds a hyperlink to the table from the place where it is mentioned in the "specifying dependencies" chapter.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | And mention you can have either lightweight 'package' or more heavyweight 'NixOS' (module) tests. This was suggested at https://github.com/ryantm/nixpkgs-update/issues/260#issuecomment-821287971 and discussed further at https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/119731
* | manual: Hardening: Remove now-nonexistent ArchWiki link.Niklas Hambüchen2021-07-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | The page has been replaced by the much more general page https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Security#Packages which is barely talking about hardening flags any more.
* | manual: hardening: Fix disabled flags prose being in previous sectionNiklas Hambüchen2021-07-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This confused the hell out of me, as I didn't spot the > The following flags are disabled by default ... when reading about `pie`, because that sentence was hidden in the previous hardening flag's section. Also explain that `pie` hardening is on by default on musl.
* | stdenv: introduce dontAddStaticConfigureFlagsAlyssa Ross2021-06-11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With removeUnknownConfigureFlags, it's impossible to express a package that needs --enable-static, but will not accept --disable-shared, without overriding the result of removeUnknownConfigureFlags _again_ in pkgs/top-level/static.nix. It would be much better (and more in line with the rest of Nixpkgs) if we encoded changes needed for static builds in package definitions themselves, rather than in an ever-expanding list in static.nix. This is especially true when doing it in static.nix is going to require multiple overrides to express what could be expressed with stdenv options. So as a step in that direction, and to fix the problem described above, here I replace removeUnknownConfigureFlags with a new stdenv option, dontAddStaticConfigureFlags. With this mechanism, a package that needs one but not both of the flags just needs to set dontAddStaticConfigureFlags and then set up configureFlags manually based on stdenv.hostPlatform.isStatic.
* | doc: Use markdown syntax for xrefsJan Tojnar2021-06-07
| | | | | | | | | | | | Syntax is taken from MyST: https://myst-parser.readthedocs.io/en/latest/using/syntax.html#targets-and-cross-referencing
* | doc: prepare for commonmarkJan Tojnar2021-06-07
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | We are still using Pandoc’s Markdown parser, which differs from CommonMark spec slightly. Notably: - Line breaks in lists behave differently. - Admonitions do not support the simpler syntax https://github.com/jgm/commonmark-hs/issues/75 - The auto_identifiers uses a different algorithm – I made the previous ones explicit. - Languages (classes) of code blocks cannot contain whitespace so we have to use “pycon” alias instead of Python “console” as GitHub’s linguist While at it, I also fixed the following issues: - ShellSesssion was used - Removed some pointless docbook tags.
