The build event information can now contain the derivation outputs, as well as
the name of the derivation. This allows the Guix Data Service to join builds
up with derivations, even if it doesn't know about the derivation being built.
The server part of the guix-data-service doesn't work great as a guix service,
since it often fails to start if the migrations take any time at all.
To address this, start the server before running the migrations, and serve the
pages that work without the database, plus a general 503 response. Once the
migrations have completed, switch to the normal behaviour.
This means you can query for derivations where builds exist or don't exist on
a given build server.
I think this will come in useful when submitting builds from a Guix Data
Service instance.
And create a proper git_branches table in the process.
I'm hoping this will help with slow deletions from the
package_derivations_by_guix_revision_range table in the case where there are
lots of branches, since it'll separate the data for one branch from another.
These migrations will remove the existing data, so
rebuild-package-derivations-table will currently need manually running to
regenerate it.
As I'm seeing the inferior process crash with [1] just after fetching the
derivation lint warnings.
This change appears to help, although it's probably just a workaround. When
there's more packages/derivations, the caches might need clearing while
fetching the derivation lint warnings, or this will need to be split across
multiple processes.
1: Too many heap sections: Increase MAXHINCR or MAX_HEAP_SECTS
These cached store connections have caches associated with them, that take up
lots of memory, leading to the inferior crashing. This change seems to help.
To the end of the main revision processing transaction.
Currently, I think there are issues when this query does update some builds,
as those rows in the build table remain locked until the end of the
transaction. This then causes build event submission to hang. Moving this part
of the revision loading process to the end of the transaction should help to
mitigate this.
