Subject: Daemon update again
Date: Thu, 04 Jun 2015 00:07:27 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87wpzksaxs.fsf@gnu.org> (raw)

Commit 54c260e updates the daemon again from upstream Nix code.  Few
interesting changes this time; interesting changes include:

  • Fixed-output derivations (such as downloads) are now also run in a
    chroot environment.  The difference with other derivations is that
    they do not get a separate network name space, which allows them to
    access the network, and they get additional files such as
    /etc/resolv.conf.

  • pivot_root(2) is used in addition to chroot(2), which is claimed to
    really prevent getting out of the chroot (though in practice build
    processes are non-root so I don’t see how they could get away.)

  • The ‘verifyStore’ RPC (more on that soon.)

Please report any issues!

Ludo’.
