This change adds logic to set up sockaddr correctly for connect and
bind, handles the AF_UNIX case for getSockAddr and expands the existing
test to cover unix sockets.
When bootstrapping, we're building things without packages being
available, so we can't expect to find them when looking for
dependencies. So, we find them another way, with an environment
variable. This flag is to tell Idris not to worry about missing
dependencies in this situation.
We also need to update the bootstrapping code, to deal with the new
version number format and new flag in the ipkg files for the libraries.
I think it's still safe to build from the previous version though - lets
see if CI agrees!
Packages are now installed in a directory with their version number.
On adding a package directory, we now look in a local 'depends'
directory first (to allow packages to be installed locally to another
project) before the global install directory.
Dependencies can have version bounds (details yet to be implemented) and
we pick the package with the highest version number that matches.
The Network.Socket.Data code previously used hardcoded constants manually read
from auto-generated C source code, however these constants are specific to
Linux. The original code looked like this:
export
ToCode SocketFamily where
-- Don't know how to read a constant value from C code in idris2...
-- gotta to hardcode those for now
toCode AF_UNSPEC = 0 -- unsafePerformIO (cMacro "#AF_UNSPEC" Int)
toCode AF_UNIX = 1
toCode AF_INET = 2
toCode AF_INET6 = 10
The AF_INET6 constant is correct on my Debian 10 laptop:
molly on flywheel ~> grep -rE '^#define AF_INET6' /usr/include
/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/socket.h:#define AF_INET6 PF_INET6
molly on flywheel ~> grep -rE '^#define PF_INET6' /usr/include
/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/socket.h:#define PF_INET6 10 /* IP version 6. */
However, this is not the case on an OpenBSD machine:
spanner# grep -rE '^#define[[:space:]]+AF_INET6' /usr/include
/usr/include/sys/socket.h:#define AF_INET6 24 /* IPv6 */
This commit adds accessor functions to the C runtime support library for
retrieving the values of these macros as they appear in the system libc header
files, which can then be invoked using the normal C FFI machinery.
This involves updating the bootstrap code since it needs a fix in
interface resolution. It shouldn't affect the Idris2-boot build though,
since it's in the libraries not the Idris2 source.
Following a fairly detailed discussion on slack, the feeling is
generally that it's better to have a single interface. While precision
is nice, it doesn't appear to buy us anything here. If that turns out to
be wrong, or limiting somehow, we can revisit it later. Also:
- it's easier for backend authors if the type of IO operations is
slightly less restrictive. For example, if it's in HasIO, that limits
alternative implementations, which might be awkward for some
alternative back ends.
- it's one less extra detail to learn. This is minor, but there needs to
be a clear advantage if there's more detail to learn.
- It is difficult to think of an underlying type that can't have a Monad
instance (I have personally never encountered one - if they turns out
to exist, again, we can revisit!)
Need to pass the LD_LIBRARY_PATH all the way through or racket doesn't
know where to look. I really don't know why it doesn't work to just set
it at the top level in the script, but it didn't (on my Mac, at least).
