My apologies, at the time I sent the mail in a hurry.
Basically now instead of converting unit files to services individually it 
happens in bulk so that it can check if there is a corresponding .socket file 
per service file (and the reverse). If there is a corresponding .socket file 
then the input and output of the .service will be redirected to the result of 
(accept) on the socket corresponding to the .socket file.
It also makes the select that waits for the commands from herd to also wait for 
the sockets.

It's against the previous patch that I sent, but I can put the branch online.

Until now (in general, not only during the gsoc) I tried to solve any issues 
that had arisen when I was programming by myself, so it was a bit difficult to 
change that mindset - I will try to be more communicative after this however.

The new feature is initial support of .socket unit files. It is used like:
(let* ((port1 (open-input-file "/systemd/test.service"))
   (port2 (open-input-file "/systemd/test.socket")))
  (apply register-services (unit-files->services `(("/systemd/test.service" 
"test" service ,(read-unit-file port1))
   ("/systemd/test.socket" 
"test" socket  ,(read-unit-file port2)

  (close-port port1)
  (close-port port2))

The things that are left are supporting more systemd options, and making it work 
properly.

Ioannis, could you perhaps share some of your w.i.p. code regarding
signalfd-based signal handling in guile? Adding to what Ludo'
mentioned, I imagine you are running into some peculiarities regarding
guile's way of handling signals, so I would recommend to start
lurking on #guile if you did not do this before now, so you can interact
with the folks with the most expertise regarding the problems you
might be facing :-)

Could you expound a bit?  That’s a very short summary for all the sweat

Also, what is the patch against?  It’s not against ‘master’; I suppose
it’s against the previous state of your own branch, do you have a copy

It’s OK that the thing doesn’t quite work—we knew it was not an easy
task.  What’s disappointing though is that you didn’t come to us to
discuss the issues until now.  GSoC is not about working in all
loneliness separately from the rest of the group; it’s about becoming

On IRC Jelle and I (and possibly others) offered help on the ‘signalfd’

signalfd(2) instead of SIGCHLD, then discuss together what it would take

You are totally right here! The quick and dirty way of doing it, which I am
currently doing,
is to wrap these checks in a memoized function.
I'll take some of your points into account to properly rewrite this part.

I know of projects like [1] that already do something similar, although I

I'd like to indicate that in the Guix code base there's a function visiting
the graph of the dependencies of a package with the concern of covering it
all AND of not considering the same node more than one time

It's in guix/packages.scm on line 552, it's called "transitive-inputs" and
takes as an arguments the inputs of a single package.

It could be used as a blueprint for such task of dependencies graphs
covering.

The main observation that I can do is that both versions do check whether a
package being considered is already been seen in a previous passage.

So, it doesn't seem to me that Jelle's version could revisit the same
package (node) over and over

Also, the "official" version clearly distinguishes between the current
depth level in the graph and the next one, using 2 different variables for
containing the packages (nodes) at the current depth and those in the next
level ("inputs" and "propagated") as it does a breadth first visit.

Instead the Jelle's version uses the same variable for the current AND the
next level and it's a list and it conses the nodes for the next level on
the current list

So it seems to me that it does a depth first visit (I might be wrong, I
didn't do a complete trace)

If anything, the "official" version uses a VHash to check if a package has
already been "seen" while Jelle's uses a plain list (again)

So the cost of this check is constant in the official version and linear in
Jelle's version.

Further, in Jelle's version, every package gets checked against the list of
already imported packages (as a plain list) AND against the packages
already present in the store.

Both checks at every iteration. It seems to me that there's space for
improving here ;-)

In fact, in Jelle's guix/import/npm.scm, on line 462 the "and" could be
switched to an "or". It would work anyway and it could save a handful of
checks on a complete run of the algorithm

Anyway, I tried to "import" a random package and it has a ton of
dependencies.

It seems to me that a more systematic approach (like that of a real data
scientist ;-) ) could help here

The whole graph should be imported in some database and then graph
algorithms should be run on it

For example: which are the packages with less or no dependencies (and a lot
of dependants) ?
Because those should be imported first, in my opinion.

Jelle came to the notion that testing frameworks are a dependencies for
almost all the packages but as far as I understand that's a quite empirical
knowledge.

Indeed. Impressive.

Ok, so these are the first impressions that I came up with. I'd like my
observations on the algorithms to be vetted by more experienced people.

Just to help me verify if I can actually understand someone's else scheme
code

I’m really impressed that your importer can already grovel this much!
In itself, that’s already a significant achievement, despite the
frustration of not getting “guix package -i jquery” right away.

Do you have figures on the number of vertices and edges on this graph?
Could it be that the recursive importer keeps revisiting the same nodes
over and over again?  :-)

I would suggest publishing the code somewhere so others can try to
import their favorite JS library and give feedback.

People have looked at bootstrapping compilers using their historical
ancestor, and it often looked hard first to find what each
implementation’s ancestor was, and then to actually chain them (I
remember Ricardo going back to an old Haskellish implementation in
Scheme at one point.)

Of the two options you list, packaging several Node versions sounds like
the simplest one.  There may be other stumbling blocks though, so be
prepared to stop the packaging recursion before you get mad.  ;-)  In
practice, we’ve never managed to get this far for the other compilers we
have.

Thanks for the status update!

Have you asked the jQuery developers for their view on the number of

Re: [GSoC update] Porting Guix to GNU/Hurd

2015-08-23 Thread Ludovic Courtès
Hi!

Manolis Ragkousis manolis...@gmail.com skribis:

 1) Guix can successfully cross-build any package for the Hurd and produce
 the bootstrap-tarballs to build packages with Guix natively on such a system.

 2) Guix can build the native final toolchain.

 3) Guix can build packages natively using the final toolchain.

 Even though most of the work is already present in the wip-hurd branch, there
 are still some patches to be reviewed/merged. This will happen asap.

 But nevertheless we can safely say we have ported Guix to Hurd. :-)

Congratulations on that!  That’s a great achievement, and I know there
were some bumps on the road, and the project covers several very
different pieces of software, so thumbs up!

 2) guix/build/syscalls (mount, umount, setns ) Those aren't available
 on Hurd, so
 building Guix would fail. It seems turning them into procedures is
 enough to work
 around this.

This module is only used by GuixSD anyway (not Guix itself), so no
problem.

In the interim, we should perhaps arrange to not build that module when,
say, ‘mount’ is missing (using an ‘AM_CONDITIONAL’.)

 4) Perl could not be build because of a problem with memmove in hurd's
 glibc. Together
 with Samuel and Justus we traced the problem to a not properly tested
 part of glibc.
 Fixed.

Pheew.  :-)

 5) glibc-intermediate could not find the gnumach/hurd headers because
 of unsetting the
 path during the build process. It seems that glibc's sysdeps/mach and
 sysdeps/mach/hurd
 configure weren't using the --with-headers variable to get the
 headers. Fixed that and sent
 the patch to bug-hurd :-).

OK.

 6) Binaries produced from gcc-boot0 had problems with their runpath
 and validate-runpath?
 was failing. It seems ld wasn't passing -rpath to them. Added an
 ld-wrapper, solved.

Interesting, will look at the patch hopefully soon.

 7) glibc-final's debug output refers to %glibc-bootstrap. I think this
 happens indirectly through
 the headers, currently solving that.

Would be nice to understand why that happens.  In the meantime you could
disable #:allowed-references altogether for that package when on
GNU/Hurd, if you want.

 Also, I am near finishing sys/mount.h for Hurd. Will finish it as soon
 as possible.

Great!

 I get the feeling I forgot some things so please remind/ask me
 anything. For the next two
 days I will wrap up patches and push them to wip-hurd. After that I
 will continue working on
 getting the full GuixSD experience on Hurd. And one of these days we
 will deploy guix on
 darnassus together with rbraunr. I will inform you when that happens.

Excellent.  Thanks to the Hurd and Guix people for giving you a hand!

Cheers,
Ludo’.

the patch to bug-hurd :-).
6) Binaries produced from gcc-boot0 had problems with their runpath
and validate-runpath?
was failing. It seems ld wasn't passing -rpath to them. Added an
ld-wrapper, solved.
7) glibc-final's debug output refers to %glibc-bootstrap. I think this
happens indirectly through
the headers, currently solving that.

I think those are most of the problems I faced. Well those are the
ones that were worked on and
solved after Ludo left for vacations. I avoid referring to problems
discussed and solved in mails earlier
than that.

Also, I am near finishing sys/mount.h for Hurd. Will finish it as soon
as possible.

I get the feeling I forgot some things so please remind/ask me
anything. For the next two
days I will wrap up patches and push them to wip-hurd. After that I
will continue working on
getting the full GuixSD experience on Hurd. And one of these days we
will deploy guix on
darnassus together with rbraunr. I will inform you when that happens.

Please feel free to ask me anything.

Thank you,
Manolis

Congratulation Manolis, Ludo and Guixs 3:)

Thanks,

But nevertheless we can safely say we have ported Guix to Hurd. :-)

Amazing news! :-)

Thanks so much for working on this.  I haven't tried out Hurd so far 
but
am meaning to do so eventually; sounds like my first Hurd system will 
be

GuixSD at the same time.  So much awesome in one system.


I second that. Thanks :)
