| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The go linker `-s` and `-w` flags respectively are for: - Omit the symbol table and debug information. - Omit the DWARF symbol table. Those actions should be delegated to the fixup build phase instead. See: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/why-do-so-many-go-packages-use-s-w-in-their-ldflags-it-breaks-dontfixup-dontstrip/36843

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Without this, it's impossible to override the lockFile as the default overrideAttrs is applied after the composition in buildNimPackage has read the lock file and generated the nim flags from it.

| | | |/ | | |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For the time being, we're moving towards https://nix.dev/ containing all tutorials and guides. The Nixpkgs manual is reinforced to be a _reference_ manual. While it's not just reference for now, that's what the docs team is working towards. This commits rewrites the Nixpkgs manual introduction to reflect that and point to some more useful links. The contribution docs are updated similarly so it's not missed.

| * | CONTRIBUTING.md: Update markdown emphasising syntaxSilvan Mosberger2023-12-06
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | GitHub supported special markdown syntax for emphasising blocks for some time. This was however a beta feature, and still is, so it's subject to changes. Recently such a change happened: The syntax is different now. See https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/16925 for more information
* / rustc: add a compiler wrapperAlyssa Ross2023-11-30
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We keep running into situations where we can't get the right combination of rustc flags through build systems into rustc. RUSTFLAGS is the only variable supported across build systems, but if RUSTFLAGS is set, Cargo will ignore all other ways of specifying rustc flags, including the target-specific ones, which we need to make dynamic musl builds work. (This is why pkgsCross.musl64.crosvm is currently broken — it works if you unset separateDebugInfo, which causes RUSTFLAGS not to be set.) So, we need to do the same thing we do for C and C++ compilers, and add a compiler wrapper so we can inject the flags we need, regardless of the build system. Currently the wrapper only supports a single mechanism for injecting flags — the NIX_RUSTFLAGS environment variable. As time goes on, we'll probably want to add additional features, like target-specific environment variables.

* doc: consolidate info on manual linux kernel configsDS2023-11-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Nixpkgs documentation on the linux kernel builders focused on using and extending kernels that were already packaged, but never mentioned that it's possible to also build a kernel almost "from scratch". The NixOS documentation went a bit deeper on manual linux kernel configs, but that information wasn't particularly NixOS-specific. This commit consolidates the information related to building the kernel on Nixpkgs's documentation, while keeping any additional NixOS-specific information on NixOS's documentation. An additional README.md was created for contributor-facing documentation.
