The version of v8 to use for Chromium is heavily tied to the specific
version of Chromium and thus it doesn't really make sense to use v8 from
<nixpkgs>, as we would need to have 3 different versions of v8, one for
each Chromium channel.

This results in a new function called mkChromiumDerivation, which can be
used to easily build packages that are based on the Chromium source
tree.
We pass through this function as mkDerivation in the chromium wrappre,
so in the end if you want to create such a package, something like:
chromium.mkDerivation (base: {
name = "your-shiny-package-based-on-chromium";
...
})
will suffice.
Of course, this is only the first step towards this functionality,
because right now I'm not even sure the Chromium browser itself will
build.

This now uses the Debian package from the sources derivation instead of

This cases the Debian binaries to be fetched from Google's official APT
repository. If we aren't able to find a package from the APT repository,
it's very likely that it already got deleted upstream and we need to
fallback to mirrors instead.
Unfortunately, we can't use mirrors for updating, because Google doesn't
sign the Debian packages themselves and only the release files.
We're going to hook it into a Chromium updater soon, making the sha256
hashes publicly available, so if it is missing, we can still put the
sha256 manually into sources.nix, without risking anything by blindly
fetching from one of the provided mirrors.
Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
The updater is now splitted between a shellscript and a Nix expression
file which contains helpers and lookup functions to reconstruct all
information needed in order to fetch the source tarballs.
This means, that the sources.nix now doesn't contain URLs and only
versions and the corresponding SHA256 hashes. Of course, right now this
sounds like it's unnecessary, but we're going to fetch binaries soon so
it's a good idea to not unnecessarily clutter up sources.nix.

Next, we're going to refactor update.sh and the first step is to ensure

I'm giving up on this after several attempts to correctly unbundle the
largest part, namely Google's WebKit fork Blink. Right now it's so much
tied into the Chromium source it's going to be fairly hard to do if
you're not working full time on it.
Also, the intermediate steps needed to do this properly would introduce
uneccesary complexity on our side, so we really need to finish this
without leaving it in the "messy" state in order to not make Chromium
even more difficult to maintain than it is already.
However, anyone who wants to proceed on this messy step is free to
revert this commit and continue doing so. In my case I'm going to try
again once https://crbug.com/239107 and https://crbug.com/239181 are
fixed in _stable_ (I don't want to introduce *lots* of conditionals on

We obviously don't want the Hydra job of nixpkgs to fail, so we need to
make sure that we have a proper meta attribute on the outermost

For builds based on the Chromium source tree (like for example libcef),
we can still move the wrapper elsewhere when we need it.

This is because of our symlink mess, as Chromium's build support scripts
are trying to resolve everything based on absolute paths and we split
off the bundled sources from the main derivation.

patch up the gyp files and use references someday.

Now, we no longer tie the sandbox directly to the browser derivation but

default.nix.
Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
So far we just copied everything from source.* into the build directory
during the prePatch. This somewhat defeated the purpose of the source
splitup because it involved more I/O than just unpacking the entire
source tree.
Now, we're selectively *symlinking* the bundled sources into the build
directory. Even that isn't perfect because in the end we'd just
reference foreign derivations and we're done. But for now, this gets us
at least prepared for a massive reduction of compile time.
Unfortunately, gyp's behaviour when it comes to symlinks is quite
painful to come by, so we need to fix a few references to use absolute
paths.

This is hardcoded for the dev channel at the moment and we're going to

Build failure on Hydra:

This was caused by the update of file in 5885709.
As file seems to be used for only one substition in the gyp files, we
can now drop the build dependency on file and patch out the substition
expression, as it is done before actually testing if the value has been

Thanks to @wizeman for opening the pull request noted above and for
another update in between, @aristidb for fixing the patcheShebangs issue
and @shlevy for notifying me about the build failure in stdenv-updates

Sorry to everyone for my inactivity lately.
The following changes were needed in order to build those new releases:
* Patch out /bin/echo to allow building with all options enabled.
* Always use GN from the source tree.
* Remove import of depot_tools for version 34.
* Drop version 32 specific stuff.
With this commit, the following new upstream versions are introduced:
stable: 32.0.1700.77 -> 32.0.1700.102 (builds fine, tested)
beta: 32.0.1700.19 -> 33.0.1750.46 (builds fine, tested)
dev: 33.0.1712.4 -> 34.0.1809.0 (build broken with gnome_keyring)
The dev version requires a more recent version gnome_keyring and thus
won't build if gnomeKeyringSupport is set to true. I haven't tested this
build without gnomeKeyringSupport yet, so it might be broken and will be
fixed later.

This splits up the source into one base output (just the build and tools
directory), one for bundled dependencies, one for sandbox sources and
one for the sources of the main browser.
The state of this is heavily work in progress and contains a bunch of
workarounds. For example, we currently copy the entire sources into the
build directory, so a build ultimately requires even more space than
before.
Of course, it's just temporary as neither GYP nor ninja is particularly
friendly if it comes to out-of-tree builds.
Another thing which is heavily WIP is how we handle patches. Ultimately,
those patches shouldn't be applied to the source tree (at least not all)
but rather to the final build's temporary directory.

This patch adds support for unprivileged user namespaces found in kernel
versions 3.8.0 and later. In case of Nix, this is especially useful to prevent
having to set up setuid wrappers.
The implementation details about this patch can be found at the top of the file
"sandbox_userns.patch". My first attempt of creating this patch was by modifying
the SUID sandbox. Unfortunately this didn't work out well, because in the event
of a sandbox failure, the host zygote process waits for an answer of the inner
zygote with no timeout. Even if I'd have set a timeout, this would have been
very ugly, giving users which don't have unprivileged user namespaces a delay on
startup.
An alternative approach to the mentioned problem would be to use select() on the
host zygote, watching for changes stdout or stderr and the synchronization
socket. But even that approach isn't feasible because it requires a whole bunch
of even more patching.
Patch was tested with older kernels (3.2.x, 3.7.x) and kernels without user
namespace support enabled, where in case the feature is unavailable it reverts
back to the previous behaviour (no zygote sandbox, only seccomp BPF).
In order to support all Chromium channels, I manually changed the first hunk of
the patch to not include the starting context of the diff, because there is a
whitespace change in more recent versions of the Chromium source tree.

This gets rid of the patch for newer pulseaudio library versions.
In addition, we now have protobuf and pciutils in default dependencies, as those
are required (or better: optional, but recommended and thus activated by the
default gyp options) by versions >= 25.
Also, we now no longer depend on libpng, but I'm not dropping this, as we want
to get back to libpng from nixpkgs again 'real soon'.
The stack-protector flag is now disabled by default accross all versions, and
probably didn't hurt back in version 24, but at least we're now no longer add it
dependant on a particular version.
And those pesky post/onlyXX version booleans are now pre/postXX, to ensure
better clarity.

So, after searching for days in the wrong spot, eventually discovering that
postPatch isn't run on Hydra, we're now set to move forward to version 25, YAY!
Build has been tested locally (not that this would mean anything for Hydra, as
we've seen) and the output has been actively used for browsing by me :-)

This is needed in order to ensure that the postPatch hook is executed, which is
not when the patches list is empty.
It is fixed by 82f94df719 in stdenv-updates.
So as soon as the branch gets merged, we can get rid of this hack as well.

This reverts commit b7cbb4da11.
The main reason behind this - apart from looking ugly - is that it didn't really
solve anything, see:

So, we need a different and less hacky approach...

So, chromium 25 is now stable, so we really need to get the build fixed on Hydra
as soon as possible. And let's hope without nasty workarounds.
This commits updates dev and beta channels to version 26.0.1410.12, because
version 27.0.1423.0 seems to be unavailable right now. Build is running
successfully on my machine, and the browser works as well on the sites I usually
visit.

Conflicts:

Merge conflicts seemed trivial, but a look from viric and aszlig would be nice.
So, this is our sledgehammer, forcing -fno-stack-protector for every gcc/g++ in
the univ... Chromium build. Of course this is a somewhat nasty fix and there
should be a real fix somewhere in Chromium 26. But instead of wandering around
and picking cherries, we now go out for the slaughter until someone brings us
the damn cherries because we are FUURRRIII... no well... time for sleep :-)
May the mighty Hydra be with us!

This should at least mitigate our build error to only occur in v8 anymore.
Unfortunately we can't use v8 from nixpkgs right now, so we're going to put out
our sledgehammer in the next commit. Meanwhile, it doesn't hurt to get rid of
the bundled protobuf library, so let's do it.

Unfortunately, we have build errors for version 25 in the bundled libvpx:
http://hydra.nixos.org/build/4173075http://hydra.nixos.org/build/4173066
As I can't reproduce this on my local system (I've disabled the option
CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR here), let's just hope that libvpx is the only part
that fails during build because of this.

The upgrade currently doesn't involve the -lite package, as we need to use a few
more dependencies from nixpkgs first before we can finally fully switch over to
the lite package, even though the update script will try to fetch it anyway.
In this update, one particular problem that arises in conjuction with the
seccomp BPF sandbox is caused by this commit:
https://chromiumcodereview.appspot.com/12209029
Which particularily filters flags to the clone() syscall. I've spent (wasted?) a
few hours figuring out the troublesome flag, eventually figuring it out and -
just by curiousity ("Do other distributions have the same problem?") - searched
the web for "chromium CLONE_DETACHED" and BEHOLD...
A post from our OWN mailinglist pops up with the same patch I intended to do:
http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.distributions.nixos/10356
So shame on me for not being subscribed to the mailing list, and big thanks to
Ian Farmer for the patch.
As a consequence I'm now subscribed.
So, back to chromium itself, version 26 builds fine and works so far without
much (more to come in later commits) trouble.
We also had to introduce three more dependencies:
* protobuf: This one is because we don't need to use the bundled one anymore,
so we can use the version in nixpkgs.
* speechd: Not sure whether this was bundled or not, but let's use nixpkgs
version as well to keep down build time.
* libXdamage: Needed for screen capturing support.

This update is a bit more problematic, as the bundled version of libpng is
version 1.2.45 and the version in nixpkgs is 1.5.13. Even if trying to run with
libpng12 from nixpkgs, it seems to collide with parts of the bundled version.
So, until this is either fixed upstream or we have a good solution, we're using
bundled libpng for chromium version 25 and higher.

For this update we needed to fix a bunch of things:
* Limit pulse_audio_fix.patch to version 24 only (fixed upstream in 25).
* Avoid the use of -fstack-protector for version 25.
The -fstack-protector option seems to be passed to libvpx now by default, so
simply use -fno-stack-protector in every occurence of -fstack-protector in
common.gypi. At least for now this will do it, but ultimately and for the future
we may want to have support for that in general.
And if we need that support in chromium directly depends on some of the next
updates to this package, as it seems that we now can switch to quite a lot of
nixpkgs dependencies instead of bundled dependencies.

The patch previously was fetched from an Arch Linux contributor but is no longer

This is for consistency with terminology in stdenv (and the terms
"hostDrv" and "buildDrv" are not very intuitive, even if they're
consistent with GNU terminology).
stable: 23.0.1271.95 -> 23.0.1271.97 (tested and works)
beta: 24.0.1312.27 -> 24.0.1312.35 (tested and works)
The dev version doesn't build in its newest incarnation, so we will need to fix
and/or patch it before pushing upstream.

We can still use the config attribute set from within all-packages to pass it to
the package expression, which we do in case of PulseAudio. In order to override
other stuff you can now conveniently use chromium.override without passing a
fake config attribute set.
Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
This allows for more flexible overrides instead of just passing a custom
configuration attrset like:
chromium.override { config.chromium.channel = "beta"; }
So you can now simply do:
chromium.override { channel = "beta"; }

The patch is no longer needed, as we are now using the BPF seccomp sandbox.
Unfortunately this is not marked "adequately sandboxed" in chrome://sandbox, as
it awaits security review on http://crbug.com/26528.
Unfortunately this gets us into a position where we can't be sure if the sandbox
is working correctly, especially because the non-BPF seccomp sandbox has a bunch
of stability issues and is marked legacy. And we definitely don't want to add
support for the setuid sandbox, do we?
