doc: use sri hash syntax
The nixpkgs manual contains references to both sri hash and explicit
sha256 attributes. This is at best confusing to new users. Since the
final destination is exclusive use of sri hashes, see nixos/rfcs#131,
might as well push new users in that direction gently.

Notable exceptions to sri hash support are builtins.fetchTarball,
cataclysm-dda, coq, dockerTools.pullimage, elixir.override, and
fetchCrate. None, other than builtins.fetchTarball, are fundamentally
incompatible, but all currently accept explicit sha256 attributes as
input. Because adding backwards compatibility is out of scope for this
change, they have been left intact, but migration to sri format has been
made for any using old hash formats.

All hashes have been manually tested to be accurate, and updates were
only made for missing upstream artefacts or bugs.

gcc: enable stripping for cross-compilers
2022-07-28 00:30:49 -07:00
Sergei Trofimovich 0f45ce6e77 setup-hooks/strip.sh: add strip{All,Debug}ListTarget variables
This change mimics existing strip{All,Debug}List variables to
allow special stripping directories just for Target.

The primary use case in mind is gcc where package has to install
both host and target ELFs. They have to be stripped by their own
strip tools accordingly.

Artturin ba1efa71ae stdenv: substituteInPlace: accept multiple filenames
I don't know if getopt is available everywhere, so I did not use it.

in any case, it can be changed to use getopt in the future if
needed.

Valentin Gagarin 311d322feb docs: sync patchShebangs comments with manual
this is not an actual sync, but rather the manual taking the leading role.
right now it does not make sense to actually change `patch-shebangs.sh`
as that would cause a rebuild of the entire universe.

we should figure out how to keep them aligned with minimal effort both
in terms of maintenance as well as navigation for readers.

Samuel Ainsworth a7fc2f6392 autoPatchelfHook: more precise dependency ignorance 2022-04-11 01:28:55 +00:00
Adam Joseph c9d66a7fff cross-compilation.chapter.md: give examples of all depFooBar cases
This commit describes the "->" notation for dependency types in
greater detail, and uses g++ to provide examples of all six cases
(although the host->target and target->target examples are a bit
artificial).

It also adds three more rows to the table for the "->*" dependency
types for non-compiler-like packages; these dependency types were
already present in the documentation but the "*" was not really
explained.

Lastly, this commit adds a hyperlink to the table from the place where
it is mentioned in the "specifying dependencies" chapter.
