clang-tools: Improve wrapper script, add tests

staging ← Patryk27:improve-clang-tools

opened 12:30PM - 09 Nov 24 UTC

clang-tools invokes clangd through a wrapper script whose sole purpose is to ext…end `CPATH` and `CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH` envs, so that clangd is later able to find built-in and stdlib headers. This script does two things wrong: 1. We extend `CPATH` et al with entries from both `@clang@/nix-support/libc-cflags` and `@clang@/resource-root/include`, which is kind of a self-made problem, since clangd already has some header auto-detection logic which we (used to) circumvent (for more details, see the diff). 2. We extend `CPATH` et al unconditionally, breaking the `--query-driver` option. I'm not sure what's the perfect solution here, but skipping this logic when we detect `--query-driver` should be good enough. I mean, ideally we wouldn't be playing with `CPATH` etc. whatsoever, but well.

I would like to simplify allowing unfree packages via a config that is merged like most configuration values. I do have an implementation and unit tests for it, but it is quite stuck for lack of review.

Inspired by https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/197325 this adds a new optio…n nixpkgs.allowUnfreePackages, which merges additively and can thus be defined in multiple modules close to where the unfree package is installed. I would have liked ot name this option `nixpkgs.config.allowUnfreePackages`, to define it closer to where the `allowUnfree` and `allowUnfreePredicate` options are defined, but I didn't see how this could be achived, given that `nixpkgs.config` is an attribute set or function instead of a module. I would welcome some guidance on how to do this. I would also have liked to have an assertion that this setting should not be defined when `nixpkgs.config.allowUnfreePredicate or `nixpkgs.config.allowUnfree` is set, but I don't yet know how to do that. (And I would like to learn).

(Hope nixos-hardware PRs are allowed!) There’s a bit of a backlog on PRs for nixos-hardware. Some of them (like the one linked) are necessary for folks to rebuild their systems on 25.11. I don’t want to put extra pressure on the maintainers, and would love to help out with reviews if possible. I just want to make sure these are at least being seen.

Ran into this issue when trying to move over to NixOS 25.11 from 25.05 while usi…ng [hardware.nvidia.datacenter.enable](https://search.nixos.org/options?channel=unstable&query=datacenter). Seems that something going on in one of the build phases is causing the following to happen when the `nv-fabricmanager` binary is called: [nv-fabricmanager.log](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/25142867/nv-fabricmanager.log). The exact same output is logged when running checking the nv-fabricmanager binary with ldd. There is a part of the installPhase that checks the binaries with ldd, but it just checks `grep -vqz "not found"`, which doesn't appear in the above. This means the derivation still gets evaluated successfully, but the built binary is in a broken state. ## Things done * Revert build phases back to how they were in NixOS 25.05. * Enabled the `installCheckPhase`. This solves the issue without change as it runs the binary and checks to see if the version gets logged. * Enabled the checkPhase and pulled the ldd check from the installPhase into the checkPhase. Makes more sense to be in the checkPhase imo. - Built on platform: - [x] x86_64-linux - [ ] aarch64-linux - [ ] x86_64-darwin - [ ] aarch64-darwin - Tested, as applicable: - [ ] [NixOS tests] in [nixos/tests]. - [ ] [Package tests] at `passthru.tests`. - [ ] Tests in [lib/tests] or [pkgs/test] for functions and "core" functionality. - [ ] Ran `nixpkgs-review` on this PR.

Adds the Intel LLVM fork for SYCL compilation. This PR includes the compiler as …well as an `stdenv` for making nix-derivations that use it. Some notes: - Upstreaming the `gnu-install-dirs.patch` patch wont make much sense until the [equivalent vanilla-LLVM patches](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/development/compilers/llvm/22/llvm/gnu-install-dirs.patch) are upstreamed (and reach the Intel Fork). The `sycl-jit-exclude-cmake-files.patch` only makes sense with the GNU one already applied, so that neither. - This is packaged at an unstable commit instead of the last release, because several packaging-related changes are not yet in the release version. Most notably the dependency lookup changes from intel/llvm/issues/19635 - I've successfully used the stdenv to build large SYCL codebases, such as `oneDNN`. As far as I can tell, everything seems to work as intended.

Adds the Intel LLVM fork for SYCL compilation. Has 2 approvals but blocked on a changes-requested review that’s been unresponsive for over a month. I attempted the requested changes (split build), wrote up why it’s not viable right now, and followed up twice with no reply. Would appreciate another committer weighing in.

Have a PR for a package it’s been waiting for a few weeks. I was reading through the contributors’ documentation, and it seemed to point here, just trying to follow the community conventions.

Would someone be able to help look at this PR, it merges, and I try to follow all conventions, reading through, contributing.

## Description of changes Adds two new packages: - **`togl`** — a CLI for togg…ling code comments (commenting/uncommenting line ranges and named marker sections) across many languages. Installs the `toggle` and `togl` binaries (same behaviour under either name). - **`libtogl`** — the project's ABI-stable C library exposing the same engine over a C FFI, with a multi-output layout (`out` = shared library; `dev` = static library + `togl.h` header + `pkg-config` file).

nim: huge refactor of packages

**Why do a huge refractor?** With the upcoming nim changes (eg. new versions) it…'s time that nixpkgs had a huge refractor of packages/attention to keep up so this pr deprecates nim1 and nim2 (with respective unwrap) packages with [the upgrade nim to 2.2.10](https://nim-lang.org/blog/2026/04/24/nim-2210.html) and making nim use a boostrapped compiler. This [fixes the nim-unwrapped pname issue](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/issues/485742) with using name instead of pname. There was a [old previous pr here](https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/461756), however I accidentally was on the wrong branch working on the nim builder refractor as this pr is already big enough, I wanted the version change/stdenv move in this pr and did a push that deleted the changes accidentally, so I remade this pr. 😆 ## Things done - Built on platform: - [x] x86_64-linux - [x] aarch64-linux - [x] x86_64-darwin - [x] aarch64-darwin - Tested, as applicable: - [ ] [NixOS tests] in [nixos/tests]. - [ ] [Package tests] at `passthru.tests`. - [ ] Tests in [lib/tests] or [pkgs/test] for functions and "core" functionality. - [x] Ran `nixpkgs-review` on this PR. See [nixpkgs-review usage]. - [x] Tested basic functionality of all binary files, usually in `./result/bin/`. - Nixpkgs Release Notes - [x] Package update: when the change is major or breaking. - NixOS Release Notes - [ ] Module addition: when adding a new NixOS module. - [ ] Module update: when the change is significant. - [x] Fits [CONTRIBUTING.md], [pkgs/README.md], [maintainers/README.md] and other READMEs.

It’s has been waiting for a few weeks to months pinging/bumping the review channels. I will admit there has been delays such as breaking changes restriction from 26.05, but this has been ready for about a month and Ideally it would be great to merge this sometime before November for 26.11 release, so that way we can deprecate nim 1 fully and use newer version of nim that is bootstrapped.

~~I would appreciative if any committers time and energy if they could take a look and merge this in, as this has already two approvals (including another Nim team member).~~

Merged! Thanks Doron, I appreciate you merging this pr.

Hey, I made a small PR that simply fixes a missing icon by linking the icon images to the proper place:

- Symlinked the `hubstaff-color.png` files directly into `$out/share/icons/hicol…or/` for all provided resolutions, so desktop environments can properly locate the application icon. - Updated the `icon` attribute in `makeDesktopItem` from `hubstaff` to `hubstaff-color` to accurately match the filenames provided in the package.

nixos/technitium-dns-server: set WorkingDirectory on systemd service

master ← dustins:technitium-dns-server-working-directory

I recently ran into an issue where Technitium was showing unusually high CPU usa…ge despite essentially no query load (~0.24 qps). htop showed one thread in Technitium's thread pool rotating through high utilization with a lot of time spent in syscalls. Running `strace -c` for a few seconds on the process showed >600k `getdents64` and 2.8M `newfstatat` calls, which felt way out of proportion to what the server should be doing. I checked which paths the offending file descriptors pointed at (`/proc/<tid>/fd/*`) and found they resolved to `/` and `/nix` — so whatever was doing the enumerating seems like it was walking from the filesystem root rather than Technitium's state/config directory. The service definition doesn't set `WorkingDirectory`, so systemd defaults it to `/`. I added `WorkingDirectory = "%S/technitium-dns-server"` (matching the existing `StateDirectory`) to the service config, and CPU usage dropped to near-idle on every machine I tested this on. Regardless of the exact mechanism, explicitly setting `WorkingDirectory` to the state directory seems like a correctness win — services probably shouldn't implicitly run with `/` as their working directory.
