* auto-patchelf: Clean up a bitaszlig2018-02-011-7/+11
| | | | | | | This makes sure that ldd doesn't print warnings like if the file isn't executable and also makes the status messages a bit more clear. Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@nix.build>
* auto-patchelf: Fix adding env hookaszlig2018-02-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The semantics of adding env hooks has changed in NixOS/nixpkgs@7f3ca3e21a22fd3101b40cadb86899542dec2e35 so that it's now broken up into several hook variables (envBuildBuildHook, envBuildHostHook, envBuildTargetHook, envHostHostHook, envHostTargetHook and envTargetTargetHook). Fortunately commit NixOS/nixpkgs@a036473a0a0c6100fce316e1444fc33ec6674b adds a helper function (addEnvHooks) to deal this without referencing those hook variables directly and rather just providing an offset.

* pkgs/build-game: Introduce buildSandboxaszlig2017-10-031-103/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | So far creating the sandbox has been a setup hook, however it's a bit ugly how we gathered the needed paths for the chroot file system by recursively searching for store paths. While I'd like to have the sandbox being built within the main derivation, it really isn't very practical when the build takes longer than 10 minutes. With this implementation however the sandbox builds really fast and we can also modify the sandbox without needing to rebuild a particular game. Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
* pkgs/build-game: Add preliminary sandbox hookaszlig2017-10-031-0/+103
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is basically to make sure various games can't write to whatever they want in the file system, so it's not a complete sandboxing solution. Currently there's a drawback in that we can't easily determine the runtime dependencies while building a particular game, so we need to recursively dig through all referenced store paths to look them up. A better solution for this would be to gather the build time reference graph prior to building so that we can limit searching for these references within only the actual build outputs instead of churning through all inputs. In addition to that, we currently mount the namespaced root file system on top of /tmp, which makes the real /tmp unavailable to us. While in theory this shouldn't be a problem, it actually turns out it is indeed a problem if the application wants to connect to the X server socket, which is at something like /tmp/.X11-unix/X0 for display :0. Apart from these drawbacks we have a working solution for simple applications (not games, because they usually require X), which now get its own chroot with only the paths accessible that are strictly necessary.

* pkgs/build-game: Add runtimeDependencies attributeaszlig2017-09-131-7/+10
| | | | | | | This allows us to add libraries to the RPATH despite being required by the respective game. By default there is only PulseAudio at the moment. Signed-off-by: aszlig <aszlig@redmoonstudios.org>
* pkgs/games: Add a new buildGame functionaszlig2017-09-131-0/+135
The main functionality for this function is to gather missing dependencies in ELF executables and shared libraries and using patchelf to set the right RPATH. All of the dependencies are searched based on what we have in one of the buildInputs variables, so all we need to do is list them in there. One thing that's still left to solve is adding libraries to the RPATH which are only required at runtime. An example for this would be the pulseaudio library.
