API change:
`cargoParallelTestThreads` suggests that this attribute sets the
number of threads used during tests, while it is actually a boolean
option (use 1 thread or NIX_BUILD_CORES threads). In the hook, this
is replaced by a more canonical name `dontUseCargoParallelTests`.
The directory in the tarball of vendored dependencies contains `name`,
which is by default set to `${pname}-${version}`. This adds an
additional attribute to permit setting the name to something of the
user's choosing.
Since `cargoSha256`/`cargoHash` depend on the name of the directory of
vendored dependencies, `cargoDepsName` can be used to e.g. make the
hash invariant to the package version by setting `cargoDepsName =
pname`.
- API change: remove the `target` argument of `buildRustPackage`, the
target should always be in sync with the C/C++ compiler that is used.
- Gathering of binaries has moved from `buildPhase` to `installPhase`,
this simplifies the hook and orders this functionality logically
with the installation logic.
`buildRustPackage` currently accepts `cargoSha256` as a hash for
vendored dependencies. This change adds `cargoHash` which accepts SRI
hashes, setting `outputHashAlgo` to `null`.
The hash mismatch message still uses `cargoSha256` as an example,
which it probably should until we completely switch to SRI hashes.
As @lopsided98 points out in #105305, since the hashes are now target
sensative, and until we find reason to actually care to test what they
are exactly, we are best just normalizing them away in the tests.
Bofore this change, NUM_JOBS was set to 1. Some crates for building
C/C++ code (e.g. the cc and cmake crates), rely on this variable to
set the number of jobs. As a consequence, we were compiling embedded
libraries serially. Change this to NIX_BUILD_CORES to permit parallel
builds.

This enables short argument attrsets similar to fetchPypi:
src = fetchCrate {
inherit pname version;
sha256 = "02h8pikmk19ziqw9jgxxf7kjhnb3792vz9is446p1xfvlh4mzmyx";
};
While the artifacts from `buildPhase` should be used for testing as
well, it should be avoided that those are modified during `checkPhase`.
This can happen if a package is built e.g. with special
`cargoBuildFlags` that don't apply to the `checkPhase`. In that case, a
binary would be installed into `$out` without those flags since
`checkPhase` overrides the binary in the `target`-directory.
This patch copies the state of `target/release` into a temporary
location at the end of the `buildPhase` and installs the results from
that temporary directory into `$out` while `checkPhase` can continue
using the configured build-dir.
cc #91689Closes#93119Closes#91191
When features were supplied in cargoBuildFlags, the binaries were built
with these features enabled. Unless checking was disabled, `cargo test`
was executed without these build flags, meaning the binaries were
rebuilt and overwritten without the specified features.
Fix this bug by running tests after the installation phase.
Cargo sets `CARGO_FEATURE_*` for all features when running a build
script:
https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/environment-variables.html#environment-variables-cargo-sets-for-build-scripts
Some crates have build scripts (e.g. openblas-src) that rely on the
feature variables being properly set.
Since we now need several representations of features, this change
also updates `createFeatures` to be a list of features, rather than
`rustc` feature arguments. `configureCrate` and `buildCrate` then
build the required representations as-needed.
Fixes#68978
