d00229753d feat(tvix/eval): implement asynchronous list sorting algorithm
In order to implement an asynchronous builtins.sort (required for
moving builtins to generators), we need an `async` sorting algorithm
as our comparators involve invoking a Nix function.

This commit implements a fairly simple, optimised bubble sort as the
sorting algorithm used in our `async fn sort_by`.

There don't seem to be any crates providing async versions of things
like this, and they might actually be pretty hard to implement
generically due to some constraints about how `async` works.

Note that this algorithm is less efficient than the hybrid
"timsort/mergesort/insert sort" used in the Rust standard library. I
tried to write a merge sort implementation, but ran into isuses with
the sort becoming unstable because our comparators can not yield
equality. This is the simplest implementation which I know to be
correct.

Note that as of this commit this is *not* covered by the Tvix test
suite, but it will be as soon as the rest of the generator code lands.

c9c8b10370 feat(tvix/eval): don't warn twice about dead code
We currently send two warnings in case of detecting dead code - W008
inside compile_dead_code, and a more detailed warning in all places that
invoke compile_dead_code:

```
warning[W007]: useless operation on boolean: this expression is always false
     --> /nix/store/qz3gjn95gazab4fkb7s8lm6hz17rdzzy-414z9nnj1wy66ymq6vgb693x9xjz6hf2-nixpkgs-src/pkgs/top-level/perl-packages.nix:12079:15
      |
12079 |     doCheck = false && !stdenv.isDarwin;
      |               ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

warning[W008]: this code will never be executed
     --> /nix/store/qz3gjn95gazab4fkb7s8lm6hz17rdzzy-414z9nnj1wy66ymq6vgb693x9xjz6hf2-nixpkgs-src/pkgs/top-level/perl-packages.nix:12079:24
      |
12079 |     doCheck = false && !stdenv.isDarwin;
      |                        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
```

The place invoking `compile_dead_code` has more context to why the code
is unused, so it's error message is much more useful.

Stop emitting the less informative warning inside compile_dead_code
(W008), and update the comment that we expect the caller to emit a
warning.

I kept W008 itself still around, in case we end up having places this
will get used again.

2696839770 feat(tvix/eval): introduce generators module
This module contains the request/response types for generators
requesting actions from the VM.

For most of these, an async helper function is added that will be used
inside of generator functions to make use of these requests/responses
instead of constructing them directly.

Instead of using a suspended native thunk, calculate and optionally
insert the storeDir builtin when the VM is constructed.

We already have the IO handle available at this point and can just
check whether a storeDir is present, and insert its absolute value as
a builtin.

f16b0f24e2 refactor(tvix/eval): wrap Builtin type in a Box
This reduces the size of `Builtin` from 88 (!) bytes to 8, and as the
largest variant of `Value`, the size of that type from 96 to 64.

The next largest type is NixList, clocking in at 64 bytes.

This has noticeable performance impact. In an implementation without
disk I/O, evaluating nixpkgs.stdenv looks like this:

Benchmark 1: tvix -E '(import <nixpkgs> {}).stdenv.drvPath'
  Time (mean ± σ):      1.151 s ±  0.003 s    [User: 1.041 s, System: 0.109 s]
  Range (min … max):    1.147 s …  1.155 s    10 runs

After this change, it looks like this:

Benchmark 1: tvix -E '(import <nixpkgs> {}).stdenv.drvPath'
  Time (mean ± σ):      1.046 s ±  0.004 s    [User: 0.954 s, System: 0.092 s]

32698766ef refactor(tvix/eval): statically resolve select from constant attrs
When resolving a select expression (`attrs.name` or `attrs.name or
default`), if the set compiles to a constant attribute set (as is most
notably the case with `builtins`) we can backtrack and replace that
attribute set directly with the compiled value.

For something like `builtins.length`, this will directly emit an
`OpConstant` that leaves the `length` builtin on the stack.

3419f63575 fix(tvix/eval): ensure all evaluated thunks are correctly memoized
This fixes a very complicated bug (b/246). Evaluation
progresses *much* further after this, leading to several less
complicated bugs likely being uncovered by this

What was the problem?
=====================

Previously, when evaluating a thunk, we had a code path that looked
like this:

    match *thunk {
        ThunkRepr::Evaluated(Value::Thunk(ref inner_thunk)) => {
            let inner_repr = inner_thunk.0.borrow().clone();
            drop(thunk);
            self.0.replace(inner_repr);
        }
        /* ... */
    }

This code path created a copy of the inner `ThunkRepr` of a nested
thunk, and moved that copy into the `ThunkRepr` of the parent.

The effect of this was that the original `ThunkRepr` (unforced!) lived
on in the original thunk, without the memoization of the subsequent
forcing applying to it.

This had the result that Tvix would repeatedly evaluate these thunks
without ever memoizing them, if they occured repeatedly as shared
inner thunks. Most notably, this would *always* occur when
builtins.import was used.

What's the solution?
====================

I have completely rewritten `Thunk::force_trampoline_self` to make all
flows that can occur in it explicit. I have also removed the outer
loop inside of that function, and resorted to more use of trampolining
instead.

The function is now well-commented and it should be possible to read
it from top-to-bottom and get a general sense of what is going on,
though the trampolining itself (which is implemented in the VM) needs
to be at least partially understood for this.

What's the new problem(s)?
==========================

One new (known) problem is that we have to construct `Error` instances
in all error types here, but we do not have spans available in some
thunk-related situations. Due to b/238 we cannot ask the VM for an
arbitrary span from the callsite leading to the force. This means that
there are now code paths where, under certain conditions, causing an
evaluation error during thunk forcing will panic.

To fix this we will need to investigate and fix b/238, and/or add a
span tracking mechanism to thunks themselves.

What other impacts does this have?
==================================

With this commit, eval of nixpkgs mostly succeeds (things like stdenv
evaluate to the same hashes for us and C++ Nix, meaning we now
construct identical derivations without eval breaking).

Due to this we progress much further into nixpkgs, which lets us
uncover more additional bugs. For example, after this commit we can
quickly see that cl/7949 introduces some kind of behavioural issue and
should not be merged as-is (this was not apparent before).

Additionally, tvix-eval is now seemingly very fast. When doing
performance analysis of a nixpkgs eval, we now mostly see the code
path for shelling out to C++ Nix to add things to the store in there.
We still need those code paths, so we can not (yet) do a performance
analysis beyond that.

1facd889bb feat(tvix/eval): use lexical-core to format float
Apparently our naive implementation of float formatting, which simply
used {:.5}, and trimmed trailing "0" strings not sufficient.

It wrongly trimmed numbers with zeroes but no decimal point, like
`10000` got trimmed to `1`.

Nix uses `std::to_string` on the double, which according to
https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/string/basic_string/to_string
is equivalent to `std::sprintf(buf, "%f", value)`.

https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/io/c/fprintf mentions this is treated
like this:

> Precision specifies the exact number of digits to appear after
> the decimal point character. The default precision is 6. In the
> alternative implementation decimal point character is written even if
> no digits follow it. For infinity and not-a-number conversion style
> see notes.

This doesn't seem to be the case though, and Nix uses scientific
notation in some cases.

There's a whole bunch of strategies to determine which is a more compact
notation, and which notation should be used for a given number.
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/24556 provides some pointers
into various rabbit holes for those interested.

This gist seems to be that currently a different formatting is not
exposed in rust directly, at least not for public consumption.

There is the
[lexical-core](https://github.com/Alexhuszagh/rust-lexical) crate
though, which provides a way to format floats with various strategies
and formats.

Change our implementation of `TotalDisplay` for the `Value::Float` case
to use that. We still need to do some post-processing, because Nix
always adds the sign in scientific notation (and there's no way to
configure lexical-core to do that), and lexical-core in some cases keeps
the trailing zeros.

Even with all that in place, there as a difference in `eval-okay-
fromjson.nix` (from tvix-tests), which I couldn't get to work. I updated
the fixture to a less problematic number.

With this, the testsuite passes again, and does for the upcoming CL
introducing builtins.fromTOML, and enabling the nix testsuite bits for
it, too.

22b9e6ff09 refactor(tvix/eval): administer antidote for poison
The codebase contains a lot of complexity and odd roundabout
handling for shadowing globals.  I'm pretty sure none of this is
necessary, and all of it disappears if you simply make the globals
part of the ordinary identifier resolution chain, with their own
scope up above the root scope.  Then the ordinary shadowing routines
do the right thing, and no special cases or new terminology are
required.

This commit does that.

Note by tazjin: This commit was originally abandoned when Adam decided
not to take away reviewer bandwidth for this at the time (eval was
still in a much earlier stage). As we've recently done some
significant refactoring of globals initialisation this came up again,
and it seems we can easily cover the use-cases of the poison tracking
in other ways now, so I've rebased, updated and resurrected the CL.

b9646ab40c feat(tvix/eval): add builtins to builtins
This is a somewhat terrifying hack that enables us to support
`builtins.builtins`, by running a "fake compilation" inside of a
suspended native thunk that can resolve the weak pointer to the
globals.

With this implementation, the thunk at `builtins.builtins` actually
resolves to the "real" `builtins` (verified with a new test).

This is kind of ugly, and it's something users shouldn't use, but
bubbling a warning out of this is difficult at the moment due to a
little bit of trickery with how the spans in suspended native thunks
work (they don't) (see b/237, b/238)

The one thing I couldn't figure out in the previous implementation is
where the ranges/sizes of generated collections came from. The

default value, and SizeRange with 0..100). I've opted to specify
0..100 directly, but we can probably make it configurable.

While we're working on this, add a simple test checking the various

test, since you have to write

    { "assert" = null; }

in order to avoid an evaluation error, but C++ Nix is happy to print
this as

    { assert = null; }

– maybe should be considered to be a bug.

3d238c350b refactor(tvix/eval): streamline construction of globals/builtins
Previously the construction of globals (a compiler-only concept) and
builtins (a (now) user-facing API) was intermingled between multiple
different modules, and kind of difficult to understand.

The complexity of this had grown in large part due to the
implementation of `builtins.import`, which required the notorious
"knot-tying" trick using Rc::new_cyclic (see cl/7097) for constructing
the set of globals.

As part of the new `Evaluation` API users should have the ability to
bring their own builtins, and control explicitly whether or not impure
builtins are available (regardless of whether they're compiled in or
not).

To streamline the construction and allow the new API features to work,
this commit restructures things by making these changes:

1. The `tvix_eval::builtins` module is now only responsible for
   exporting sets of builtins. It no longer has any knowledge of
   whether or not certain sets (e.g. only pure, or pure+impure) are
   enabled, and it has no control over which builtins are globally
   available (this is now handled in the compiler).

2. The compiler module is now responsible for both constructing the
   final attribute set of builtins from the set of builtins supplied
   by a user, as well as for populating its globals (that is
   identifiers which are available at the top-level scope).

3. The `Evaluation` API now carries a `builtins` field which is
   populated with the pure builtins by default, and can be extended by
   users.

4. The `import` feature has been moved into the compiler, as a
   special case. In general, builtins no longer have the ability to
   reference the "fix point" of the globals set.

This should not change any functionality, and in fact preserves minor
differences between Tvix/Nix that we already had (such as
`builtins.builtins` not existing).

This switches to a fork of `im` that fixes some bugs with its OrdMap

610c44ec1e refactor(tvix/eval): use im::Vector directly where possible
The conversion from im::Vector -> Vec is cheaper for NixList
construction (of course), so where possible we should make use of
that.

This updates most builtins dealing with lists to use Vector directly,
and marks the function constructing NixList from Vec as deprecated so
that we get appropriate warnings in places where it's still in use.

These places are currently inside of JSON serialisation logic which is
in flux right now, so lets leave them as-is until it's stabilised.

5d73c06b1a refactor(tvix/eval): use im::Vector for NixList representation
This is a persistent, structurally sharing data structure which is
more efficient in some of our use-cases. I have verified the
efficiency improvement using `hyperfine` repeatedly over expressions
on nixpkgs.

Lists are not the most performance-critical structure in Nix (that
would be attribute sets), but we can already see a small (~5-10%)
improvement.

Note that there are a handful of cases where we still go via `Vec`
that need to be fixed, most notable for `builtins.sort` which can not
currently be implemented directly using `im::Vector` because of a
restrictive type bound.

This trait is going to be used to abstract filesystem interactions in

For now, it only contains a `read_to_string` method that closely
mirrors `std::fs::read_to_string`.

As a first step, to see how this works in practice, we will thread
through only this function to the various relevant parts.

Two implementations are provided in tvix-eval itself: A dummy
implementation (which just returns ErrorKind::NotImplemented for all
operations), and a std implementation which delegates to `std`
functions.

bf286a54bc refactor(tvix/eval): add a LightSpan type for lighter span tracking
This type carries the information required for calculating a
span (i.e. the chunk and offset), instead of the span itself. The span
is then only calculated in cases where it is required (when throwing
errors).

This reduces the eval time for
`builtins.length (builtins.attrNames (import <nixpkgs> {}))` by *one
third*!

The data structure in chunks that carries span information reduces
in-memory size by trading off the speed of retrieving span
information. This is because the span information is only actually
required when throwing errors (or emitting warnings).

However, somewhere along the way we grew a dependency on carrying span
information in thunks (for correctly reporting error chains). Hitting
the code paths for span retrieval was expensive, and carrying the
spans in a different way would still be less cache-efficient. This
change is the best tradeoff I could come up with.

locals list, use a secondary name-based index for resolving locals by
name.

Previously, almost 60% (!!) of eval time on some expressions over
nixpkgs was spent in `Local::has_name`. This function doesn't even
exist anymore now, and eval speed about doubles as a result.

Note that this doesn't exactly make the locals code easier to read,
but I'm also not sure what we can simplify in there in general.

This fixes b/227.

d9e2bec953 refactor(tvix): split binary (REPL etc.) out from evaluator library
The tvix-eval project is independent from any *uses* of the evaluator,
such as the tvix-repl.

This functionality has been split out into a separate "tvix-cli"
crate. Note that this doesn't have to mean that this CLI crate is the
"final" CLI crate for tvix, the point of this is not "getting the CLI
structure right" but rather "getting the evaluator structure right".

This reshuffling is part of restructuring the way that functionality
like store communication is injected into language evaluation.

Note that at this commit the new CLI crate is not at feature-parity.

d101151fc5 feat(tvix/eval): begin introducing new public API
A step towards something more like how I imagine the future public API
for tvix-eval. Please note that this is definitely not the final
version yet, but it's better than the previous API that either exposed
a side-effecting blackbox, or a very low-level "interface".

The basic idea is that an evaluation of some Nix code is requested by
a caller with various parameters, but not all callers are interested
in all of these parameters.

There are also some bits of information that are returned from an
evaluation that are not necessarily relevant to all callers.

To support this somewhat ergonomically, the API is built around an
`Evaluation` struct that is configured by the caller with the various
parameters and then "executed".

3aca3d3bba refactor(tvix): build Rust projects using crate2nix
Introduces granular dependency builds using crate2nix, bootstrapped
off the generated configuration from the newly introduced
workspace (see cl/7533).

This commit checks in the generated Cargo.nix file which can be
regenerated with a parameterless invocation of `crate2nix generate` in
`//tvix`. I tried generating this in IFD, but it turned out to be
harder than what seemed worthwhile for now.

In this setup, the various build targets for Rust projects end up
being attributes of the imported `Cargo.nix` file at the `tvix.crates`
attribute. These still lack configuration, however, which has been
fixed in the various `default.nix` files of individual projects.

Note that we (temporarily) lose the ability to build tvix-eval's
benchmarks in CI. I haven't figured out what magic incantation summons
them from the void again ...

The `eval-okay-readDir` tests from both test suites have been disabled
because they fail for unknown reasons when run in this new derivation.
Somebody will have to debug it!

d9d627cdf0 refactor(tvix): share a Cargo.lock file between Rust projects
This relates to the (abandoned) cl/7256.

Introduces a Cargo workspace at //tvix that is primarily intended to
be used as a workaround for the annoying Nix+Rust tooling while having
a consistent set of dependencies.

This is driven in part by a desire to adopt crate2nix and get more
granular Nix builds for Tvix's Rust projects, and in part by a need to
split //tvix/eval into something providing the CLI (REPL etc.), and a
library providing eval, without significantly altering the structure
of build targets.

To accomplish this the workspace has been designed to allow projects
to remain independent build targets. I want to avoid lumping all the
projects together - something like //tvix/eval should always be
independent of other parts of tvix.

A helper function in //tvix/default.nix lets downstream naersk
projects construct a sparse root for the project which combines the
workspace's `Cargo.lock` with the project's own `Cargo.toml`.

Note that cargo commands in the workspace itself require the build
dependencies of _all_ projects to be present, which is currently a bit
annoying to accomplish.

This introduces some breakage:

1. It breaks usage of rust-analyser without being in a shell with the
   dependencies of *all* Tvix projects, as it is not capable of
   respecting only the subset of dependencies for a part of the
   workspace.

2. It is no longer possible to run tests using `cargo test`, as the
   test generation crate we use does not work with workspaces:

   https://github.com/frehberg/test-generator/issues/6

   This still works in the Nix build as we construct a Cargo project
   that looks like it's not in a workspace there. Until somebody fixes
   that crate / writes a new macro / does something else with the test
   suite, the way to run the tests is through the Nix build.

Long-term we'll probably want to get rid of cargo completely, it's
just a big wart and most tooling works without it if correctly
configured, but we don't have time for that now.

325a7d6fa9 test(tvix/eval): add eval-okay-closure-pointer-compare
This test case checks two things:

* A sanity check that "pointer equality for functions" means not
  just the lambda, but also the upvalues.

* To be pointer-equal, it is not enough for the upvalues to be
  normal-form equal (i.e. `nix_eq()`-equal); the upvalues must be
  *pointer*-equal.  The second part of the test case checks for
  this.

11874d3a71 chore(tvix/eval): postpone use of "dep:" for a bit
The "dep:" syntax in Cargo.toml is very new; crate2nix master has
support for it, but they have not yet made a release with this
update, and therefore the crate2nix in nixpkgs does not yet support
it.

Could we avoid using "dep:" for a few weeks to give crate2nix a
chance to release so I can bump the version in nixpkgs?  I've opened
an issue asking crate2nix to make a release:

  https://github.com/kolloch/crate2nix/issues/264

I propose that if they haven't acted within a month we stop waiting
and revert this at that time.

a740653c83 feat(tvix/eval): make NixList::clone() cheap
When we start unrecursivifying (sp?) things, Rust's borrow checker
is going to be a headache; its magic only works when you use the CPU
stack as your call stack.

Fixing the borrow checker issues usually involves adding lots of
`clone()`s.  Right now `NixList` is the only variant of `Value` that
isn't cheap to clone() -- all the others are either a wrapper around
Rc or else are of bounded size.

Note that this requires dropping the `DerefMut for NixList` instance
and using `Vec<Value>` instead in those situations.

878dc6c227 fix(tvix/eval): aggressively fix a borrow error in nix_eq
When comparing Nix values for equality, an issue can occur where
recursive values contain thunks to themselves which causes borrow
errors when forcing them for comparison later down the line.

To work around this we clone the values for now. There might be some
optimisations possible like checking for thunk equality directly and
short-circuiting on that (we have to check what Nix does).
