Patch every `derivation` call in the bootsrap process to add it a
conditional `__contentAddressed` parameter.
That way, passing `contentAddressedByDefault` means that the entire
build closure of a system can be content addressed

stdenv.cc didn't have an override attribute on FreeBSD previously,
breaking evaluation of all-packages.nix consequently.
Resolves #119075.

Able to bootstrap stdenv on FreeBSD by compiling various dependencies
using built-in FreeBSD tools so mostly works now
Closes: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/81459

crossOverlays only apply to the packages being built, not the build
packages. It is useful when you don’t care what is used to build your
packages, just what is being built. The idea relies heavily on the
cross compiling infrastructure. Using this implies that we need to
create a cross stdenv.
|
|
Also fix what seems like bugs in uncommon `stdenv`s.

cc-wrapper may wrap a cc-compiler, but it doesn't need one to build
itself. (c.f. expand-response-params is a separate derivation.) This
helps avoid cycles on the cross stuff, in addition to removing a
useless dependency edge.
I could have been super careful with overrides in the stdenv to avoid
the mass rebuild, but I don't think it's worth it.

Ensured hashes unchanged and eval succeeds in tarball job

See #27069 for a discussion of this

This is first step towards getting rid of gcc-wrapper-cross
|
|
Modify bootstrapping stdenvs to make sure `targetPlatform` also passed.
|
|
This is a saner default until stdenv's are removed altogether
|
|
The long term goal is a big replace:
{ inherit system platform; } => buildPlatform
crossSystem => hostPlatform
stdenv.cross => targetPlatform
And additionally making sure each is defined even when not cross compiling.
This commit refactors the bootstrapping code along that vision, but leaves
the old identifiers with their null semantics in place so packages can be
modernized incrementally.

This patch add a new argument to Nixpkgs default expression named "overlays".
By default, the value of the argument is either taken from the environment variable `NIXPKGS_OVERLAYS`,
or from the directory `~/.nixpkgs/overlays/`. If the environment variable does not name a valid directory
then this mechanism would fallback on the home directory. If the home directory does not exists it will
fallback on an empty list of overlays.
The overlays directory should contain the list of extra Nixpkgs stages which would be used to extend the
content of Nixpkgs, with additional set of packages. The overlays, i-e directory, files, symbolic links
are used in alphabetical order.
The simplest overlay which extends Nixpkgs with nothing looks like:
```nix
self: super: {
}
```
More refined overlays can use `super` as the basis for building new packages, and `self` as a way to query
the final result of the fix-point.
An example of overlay which extends Nixpkgs with a small set of packages can be found at:
https://github.com/nbp/nixpkgs-mozilla/blob/nixpkgs-overlay/moz-overlay.nix
To use this file, checkout the repository and add a symbolic link to
the `moz-overlay.nix` file in `~/.nixpkgs/overlays` directory.

Introduce new abstraction, `stdenv/booter.nix` for composing bootstraping
stages, and use it everywhere for consistency. See that file for more doc.
Stdenvs besides Linux and Darwin are completely refactored to utilize this.
Those two, due to their size and complexity, are minimally edited for
easier reviewing.
No hashes should be changed.

- Non-cross stdenvs are honest and assert that `crossSystem` is null
- `crossSystem` is a mandatory argument to top-level/stage.nix, just like
`system` and `platform`
- Broken default arguments on stdenvs for testing are gone.
- All stdenvs (but little-used stdenvNix) take the same arguments for easy
testing.

This commit changes the dependencies of stdenv, and clean-up the stdenv
story by removing the `defaultStdenv` attribute as well as the `bootStdenv`
parameter.
Before, the final bootstrapping stage's stdenv was provided by
all-packages, which was iterating multiple times over the
top-level/default.nix expression, and non-final bootstrapping stages'
stdenvs were explicitly specified with the `bootStdenv` parameter.
Now, all stages' stdenvs are specified with the `stdenv` parameter.
For non-final bootstrapping stages, this is a small change---basically just
rename the parameter.
For the final stage, top-level/default.nix takes the chosen stdenv and
makes the final stage with it.
`allPackages` is used to make all bootstrapping stages, final and
non-final alike. It's basically the expression of `stage.nix` (along with a
few partially-applied default arguments)
Note, the make-bootstrap-tools scripts are temporarily broken

* Some fetchurl-related refactoring. The `realCurl' attribute is
gone, `curl' is the real thing. To prevent an infinite recursion in
`fetchurl' (because it depends on curl and building curl needs
fetchurl), curl and its dependencies (openssl, zlib, perl) use
`fetchurlBoot', which is the fetchurl used by the previous bootstrap
phase (e.g. the statically linked version of curl for
stdenv-linux). So as a result you can use https:// urls almost
everywhere.
There's also some hackery to prevent a different curl from being
built in every stdenv-linux bootstrap phase (namely the
stdenv.fetchurl attribute which allows fetchurl to be overriden
everywhere).
