The version will initially remain the same so that no additional changes
to the packaging are required (i.e. this commit only includes the
required changes to build from the mono repository instead of individual
tarballs).
The purpose of this package is to continuously improve the LLVM
packaging in Nixpkgs without causing a lot of rebuilds and provide more
recent LLVM builds for users. For more details see:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/114828
The test suite leads to nothing but tears, sorrow, and wasted build
time. It probably should be disabled for all of them but doing only
9 (llvmPackages) and 11 (llvmPackages_latest, Rust) for now. Some of
the failures have been fixed in LLVM main:
- https://reviews.llvm.org/D97490
- https://reviews.llvm.org/D91043
This change introduces the cargoLock argument to buildRustPackage,
which can be used in place of cargo{Sha256,Hash} or cargoVendorDir. It
uses the importCargoLock function to build the vendor
directory. Differences compared to cargo{Sha256,Hash}:
- Requires a Cargo.lock file.
- Does not require a Cargo hash.
- Retrieves all dependencies as fixed-output derivations.
This makes buildRustPackage much easier to use as part of a Rust
project, since it does not require updating cargo{Sha256,Hash} for
every change to the lock file.
This function can be used to create an output path that is a cargo
vendor directory. In contrast to e.g. fetchCargoTarball all the
dependent crates are fetched using fixed-output derivations. The
hashes for the fixed-output derivations are gathered from the
Cargo.lock file.
Usage is very simple, e.g.:
importCargoLock {
lockFile = ./Cargo.lock;
}
would use the lockfile from the current directory.
The implementation of this function is based on Eelco Dolstra's
import-cargo:

Compared to upstream:
- We use fetchgit in place of builtins.fetchGit.
- Sync to current cargo vendoring.
This patch fixes https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/103493 for JDK8
only.
I'm upstreaming only for JDK8 to get quorum on the approach and then
adding the patches to the remaining versions.
