This has been discussed on IRC and on guix-devel mailinglist
but so far I haven't seen a formal bug report to make this
visible.

I can't find the right threads or timestamps for this
bug, so take it as is and extend with facts.

At the moment of writing, guix pull has the minimum
requirement of 3 GB RAM.

Before this started, I was able to run Guix on as
little as 512MB RAM.

People are currently finding out about this bug
the hard way, so we should point this out. Didn't
really happen so I guess someone is working on this
already.

Hello Guix!

A heads-up to share the cognitive burden related to this topic.  :-)

So, we have two problems: compilation time, and memory consumption.  I
*think* I’ve identified one of the major causes for both in Guile,
though it’s too early to say exactly how much this will impact resource
consumption for a full Guix compilation.  See
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guile-devel/2017-09/msg00031.html>
for details.

When that is fixed, we’ll still have a performance problem: building all
of Guix will still take more time than we’d like, and it won’t get
better as we add new files.  So we need to address this.

This has been discussed informally many times, and here’s a summary of
the ideas I’m aware of:

  1. Build Guix as separate derivations: the first derivation builds the
     closure of (guix packages), the second one builds the closure of
     (guix scripts *), and finally we build (gnu *).  We could also have
     derivations for the non-Scheme parts: the daemon, the manual, etc.

     (That amounts to compartmentalizing Guix in sub-packages, which in
     a way solves the bootstrapping issue that Pjotr complained about at
     some point—the fact that to build Guix one needs Guile, Guile-JSON,
     GnuTLS, Autotools, etc.)

     The advantage is that when running ‘guix pull’ frequently, you
     won’t have to recompile all of these.  However, you’ll almost
     always have to rebuild (gnu packages *), which is the longest part.

  2. Build all of Guix like the ‘guix’ package does, and hope that we
     can get a substitute.

     Bootstrapping issue: to do that, we first need compute the
     derivation of this new ‘guix’ package.  Thus, we at least need to
     build the closure of (guix packages), which should take a minute or
     so, after which we can compute the derivation, which could take a
     couple of minutes maybe.

     The problem is that building all of Guix (including running the
     test suite) takes some time, potentially more than the interval
     between two subsequent pushes to the repo.  Thus, it’s quite likely
     that the build farm would always be lagging behind.

     We could work around that by having the build farm automatically
     tag commits for which it has successfully built Guix.  That would
     introduce delays in deploying the latest Guix to users, but maybe
     that can be short enough to be acceptable.

  2b. To address the bootstrapping issue above, we also discussed the
     possibility of setting up a “meta-derivation” service: you’d give
     it a Git commit, and it’d return the derivation of ‘guix’ for that
     commit.

     Less computation would take place on the user side, but that
     doesn’t reduce the delay mentioned above.

     It also has the downside of introducing another service without
     which using Guix is more painful.

I think that’s about it.

Thoughts?  Hacks?  :-)

Ludo’.

This seems like the best option to me. It strikes me as odd that Guix
isn't distributed as its own substitutable package that can be
efficiently downloaded and unpacked to the store, rather than the
current intensive build-it-all process.

Do we really have to build it *all*, every time? There are two
optimizations which I can think of:

1. Only rebuild the files that changed.

I guess the challenge here is for the build to be deterministic. It
would be important to be able to detect when any of the inputs part of
the guix closure changed; when such a thing occurs we'd have to fully
rebuild Guix. Otherwise, for a constant closure, it should be safe to
simply 'git pull' and run 'make' to rebuild only the modified files,
which could speed up things a bit. A smarter Guile that would only
partially recompile the changed/referenced parts of massive files
instead of completely (think python.scm) would also improve things a lot
(this would also be a must when working on packages directly in the
tree! Updating the hash of a Python package shouldn't require minutes of
compilation).

2. Remove the --no-auto-compile arg from (guix scripts guix).

I'm not sure why this is desirable. Is it because otherwise the cached
compiled copies would be susceptible to ABI breakages? This could be
catch and handled by the build script, in which case it would retry with
'--fresh-auto-compile'. IIUC, these cached files would never end in the the
package to be distributed anyway, but having them would greatly speed up
computing the closure of guix.

Even with such optimizations it could still take more time to build Guix
than the rate at which commits hit master. Maybe a cron job that could
build the latest Guix every, say, 5 or 10 minutes (only when new commits
appeared since the last time it was built)? We would then distribute the
latest built Guix package when users would issue a 'guix pull'. There
could be a 'guix pull' option to force building the package from the
latest sources, for those who prefer the current behavior.

I think most users would happily trade having to entirely compile Guix
from scratch everytime they use 'guix pull' with being behind 5 minutes
worth of commits from master's tip!

That’s more or less what #1 would give us, though not necessarily at the
finest granularity.

Yes, that’s one thing.

Another thing is that on the first run of ‘guix package’ following ‘guix
pull’, you’d end up compiling everything, which is not much better than
compiling them upfront.

There’s also the option of not compiling (gnu packages *) and instead
evaluating them, but currently this is too costly in terms of memory and
CPU.

Yes, what I was suggesting was to build Guix at each push, and
automatically tag successful builds, such that ‘guix pull’ can pull up
to the latest successfully-built tag.  (Though we’d need to be careful:
if the auto-tagging machinery stops working, we still want users to get
the latest Guix so they have security updates.)

Thanks for chiming in!

To be clear, my suggestion of removing --no-auto-compile was not as a
replacement to compilation, but in addition to. Thinking more about what
I wrote yesterday, it seems what I had on mind was a custom, optimized
way to build Guix that would minimize the amount of files to recompile,
ala 'git pull && make' without running make clean-go or even ./configure
(under the condition that the closure of guix hasn't changed -- when it
does, a full rebuild would be necessary to ensure determinism).

As an unrelated note, I find --no-auto-compile annoying in a development
context when working directly from the guix tree. It forces you to
constantly run 'make', otherwise it recompiles modules changed since the
last 'make' every time Guile needs them, even when they haven't changed
on disk.

How do we instruct Guile to evaluate rather than compile? I don't think
I've ever experimented with this yet!

Simply by not compiling things (which includes passing
--no-auto-compile.)

I see. I was under the impression that things would be "compiled" anyway
but the result kept in memory and discarded rather than cached when
using '--no-auto-compile'.

Thanks for clearing that up!

Can't we leave this to auto-compilation during normal use of guix?

We’d have the same problem, only at a different point in time (it might
even be worse because auto-compilation would use -O2 instead of -O0.)

I've experimented a bit with --no-auto-compile (or lack of) and also
realized that it doesn't bring much to the table. Evaluating (rather
than auto-compiling) the modules is much faster and we need to properly
compile those anyway if we are to properly ship a guix binary
substitute.

Subject: [PATCH 0/8] 'guix pull' creates several derivations
Date: Fri, 20 Oct 2017 18:05:49 +0200
Hi there!

This patch set leads us to a ‘guix pull’ that creates several
derivations instead of just one: “guix-core” (38 files), “guix-extra”,
“guix-packages” (388 files), “guix-cli”, “guix-system”.

The idea is that we should be able to have substitutes for at least some
of them, for instance because “guix-core” doesn’t need to be rebuilt
very often.  Most of the time, users will just have to build
“guix-packages”, which is still a bit slow, but will hopefully get
better as Guile incorporates those long-awaited fixes.

The first two commits provide much needed improvements, and I’d be
willing to merge them ASAP.

The rest is the guts of the project.  The last commit is marked as
draft: it works as-is, but does not yet address one of the limitations
of ‘guix pull’, which is that dependencies (guile-json, guile-ssh, etc.)
are taken from the *current* Guix instead of being taken from the target
Guix.

The ‘reload-guix’ procedure there is here to fix that: we reload all the
Guix modules of the target checkout, and run the build procedure from
that context.  Unfortunately, it’s not fully baked yet because reloading
leads to incompatibilities: the (guix scripts pull) module remains in
the “old world” and manipulates the old <derivation> and <package>
record types, which is different from the new ones.  That should be
fixable, but requires some more time and fiddling.  Help from Guilers is
very much welcome!  :-)

This last part is not ready yet, but feedback is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.  :-)

Ludo’.

Ludovic Courtès (8):
  build: Factorize module compilation in (guix build compile).
  build: Honor make's '-j' flag.
  discovery: Move 'file-name->module-name' to (guix modules).
  gexp: Add 'file-union'.
  gexp: Add 'directory-union'.
  union: Parametrize the symlink procedure .
  gexp: 'directory-union' has a #:quiet? parameter.
  DRAFT Add (guix self) and use it when pulling.

Hi Ludovic!

I've read through this draft, and FWIW it looks OK to me! I've proof
read the comments and identified a few typos which you'll find
below. Great work!

Sorting the modules list lexicographically would be neat, here and in
various places. If this seems reasonable, perhaps we could have this

Should this be configurable? Hidden warnings don't have much chance to
get addressed :)

This and the other patches in this series look fine to me. Maybe the
change log items could be a bit more precise about what got moved rather
than removed, but given the amount of refactoring this might be too
verbose to be worth it?

Awesome, thanks for looking.

Well, yes to both.  :-)

Speaking of the “make -j” patch, on IRC Eric Bavier suggested that it
didn’t work as advertised because $MAKEFLAGS didn’t contain the “-j”
flag; I just checked and it does contain it here (with GNU make 4.2.1).
So no problem after all?

Thanks,
Ludo’.

The behavior changed in version 4.2.  From the Changelog:

2016-04-04  Paul Smith  <psmith <at> gnu.org>

        Preserve the real value of -jN in MAKEFLAGS using jobserver.
        Previously if the jobserver was active, MAKEFLAGS would contain only
        the -j option but not the number (not -j5 or whatever) so users
        could not discover that value.  Allow that value to be provided in
        MAKEFLAGS without error but still give warnings if -jN is provided
        on the command line if the jobserver is already activated.

        * NEWS: Discuss the new behavior.
        * os.h, posixos.c, w32/w32os.c: Return success/failure from
        jobserver_setup() and jobserver_parse_auth().
        * main.c (main): Separate the command line storage of job slots (now
        in arg_job_slots) from the control storage (in job_slots).  Make a
        distinction between -jN flags read from MAKEFLAGS and those seen
        on the command line: for the latter if the jobserver is enabled then
        warn and disable it, as before.
        * tests/scripts/features/jobserver: Add new testing.


And from NEWS for the 4.2 release:

* The amount of parallelism can be determined by querying MAKEFLAGS, even when
  the job server is enabled (previously MAKEFLAGS would always contain only
  "-j", with no number, when job server was enabled).


It Would Be Nice if the functionality worked for older versions of make
that people might have on their systems.  Using the jobserver directly
would require quite a bit of work for the current patch set, but I
wonder if there is another way to determine the -jN parameter for
make<4.2 that we could use.  Maybe simply polling the jobserver fds at
the start?

Thanks for digging!  I didn’t expect such things to ever change.

With the patch I posted, Scheme compilation would always use one thread
per core, which is what it currently does in ‘master’.

That’s in argument in favor of the lazy in me: it’s an improvement for
people using a reasonably recent system, and it’s not a regression for
the others!  :-)

WDYT?

AIUI the job server does not reveal how many jobs are allowed.  It
merely grants you an execution token.

Or did you have something else in mind?

Thanks,

Indeed.  Understood like that, it makes sense.

The idea (hardely tested) would be to read tokens from the input fd
until it blocks, do the scheme compiles with however many tokens were
read, then write them back out.  Crude, I guess, and probably error
prone; compile-all.scm could be invoked when make has job tokens tied
up building the daemon source...

Anyhow, the current patch works well for me with a recent make.  I'm
content leaving further improvements to a future hypothetical hacker. :)

Oops, that was not quite true: it would use one thread.

I fixed it like this:

Sounds reasonable.  Let’s make sure the hypothetical hacker has enough
on their plate.  :-)

I’ve pushed this and the easy parts of this patch series, with commit
d298c815e638581d466222f3a883b280f019b368 as the tip.

Thanks for the review!

Hi Maxim,

Thanks for reviewing this!

I’ve fixed the many typos that you noticed.  Apart from that, I’ve also
addressed the “parallel world” issue that module reloading creates: the
trick is to use ‘eval’ (evil!).  Anyway, it seems to do the job.  New
patches attached!

So at this point, I think it needs more testing mostly.  To do that, you
need to create a branch with those patches, say ‘wip-pull-derivations’,
and then from there you can run:

  ./pre-inst-env guix pull --url=$PWD --branch=wip-pull-derivations

In this case I wanted to have them sorted “logically”, almost
topologically, and I prefer it that way.

For (gnu packages …) modules, I agree it makes sense to sort
alphabetically though, and yes, we could write it down somewhere in the
manual.

The idea is that when you type ‘make’ you still get warnings, but you
don’t get them when you run ‘guix pull’, as is already the case (on the
grounds that ‘make’ is for developers and ‘guix pull’ for users.)

Heya,

The latest news is that (1) the weak-table fix in Guile¹ helps in
general but does not significantly reduce memory consumption when
compiling gnu/packages/python.scm (which requires ~1.5G on x86_64), and
(2) we’ve identified the compiler’s slot allocator as a major cause of
memory consumption and CPU cost when compiling large files like
python.scm:

  https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guile-devel/2017-10/msg00035.html

Andy may work on a simpler slot allocator for -O0 and/or large functions
that doesn’t exhibit this pathological behavior.

In the meantime, our best workaround to reduce memory consumption is… to
split large files into smaller ones.  Per M-x guix-locations, the
candidates are:

  gnu/packages/python.scm                                   986
  gnu/packages/perl.scm                                     401
  gnu/packages/haskell.scm                                  348
  gnu/packages/bioinformatics.scm                           274
  gnu/packages/statistics.scm                               222
  gnu/packages/emacs.scm                                    213
  gnu/packages/xorg.scm                                     196
  gnu/packages/web.scm                                      188
  gnu/packages/gnome.scm                                    162
  gnu/packages/ruby.scm                                     159
  gnu/packages/java.scm                                     149
  gnu/packages/ocaml.scm                                    126
  gnu/packages/tex.scm                                      107
  gnu/packages/linux.scm                                    106

I think we could focus on the first two or three files.  FTR, compiling
bioinformatics.scm peaks at ~500 MiB resident on x86_64.

Ricardo, WDYT?

If we do this, do we split arbitrarily?  Like the second half of
python.scm goes to python-cont.scm (provided there are no cross
top-level references)?  Or do you have a better idea?

I was hoping we could avoid this, but whatever: let’s do this :)

Ultimately, I’d like to move packages to locations where they could
permanently live, but that would probably take longer.

Would it make sense to move all the python2-* packages to a new module?
This would make the split rather simple and users wouldn’t have to
remember which of their packages ended up in which half of the modules.
It also means that we probably won’t have to mess with the copyright
headers.

For perl.scm I have no good ideas.  Let’s split it up at an arbitrary
point.

For haskell.scm I’d begin by moving the following packages away:

- check.scm: ghc-tasty*, ghc-quickcheck*, ghc-test*, ghc-hunit*, hspec*,
  ghc-hspec*, …

- web.scm: ghc-tagsoup, ghc-cookie, ghc-http*, ghc-wai*, ghc-json,
  ghc-warp*, ghc-multipart, ghc-aeson*

- crypto.scm: ghc-tf-random, ghc-digest, ghc-cryptonite, ghc-x509*,
  ghc-asn1*, ghc-pem, ghc-cryptohash*, ghc-entropy, ghc-crypto-api*,
  ghc-puremd5

- tls.scm: ghc-tls

Maybe that’s enough already.

Does that seem like a good idea?  I could prepare patches for splitting
up haskell.scm.

Yeah, me too.  The problem we have is that Guix is hardly releasable in
its current state because on systems with 1 GiB of memory you can’t
upgrade, and I think that’s unacceptable.

So what are the options?  If we get a bug-fix for Guile’s compiler
today, does it help?  If we graft it then we can deliver it without
having to wait for a Guile release, which helps a bit?

I think it’s all about time: we could wait (and hack!) some more, and
solve the root problem.  This is the best long-term course of action,
but at the same time it delays the Guix release.

I’m not sure we can do this, because that may lead to top-level
references across these two modules, which is not OK.

It does.  Actually, we could do similarly for Perl and Python:
python-web, python-check, python-crypto, etc.

WDYT?

Yes, I’m feeling the pain with my i686 netbook.

The way I see it, having very large modules like (gnu packages python)
is not desirable anyway.  So we won’t get around distributing package
definitions.  If we can get a fix for Guile soon that’s great, but we
should begin moving packages independent of that.

Okay, I’ll get started with splitting haskell.scm.  I’ll prepare one
patch for each target module.

Okay.  I’ll leave that task for someone else, because I don’t think I
can do more than haskell.scm today.

I’ve moved packages from haskell.scm to haskell-check.scm,
haskell-web.scm, haskell-crypto.scm, and tls.scm.  I hope haskell.scm is
small enough now.

It’s all in master already.

Right, that makes sense.

I’ve moved 129 packages from python.scm to python-web.scm:

  https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=1b2f753d9c73a5431ec1f5510449c480debf80ce

There are still 863 left in python.scm, and it would be good to be at
400–500 max.  I’ll see if I can do python-crypto or python-check today.

Thank you for your work on haskell.scm and perl.scm!

I’ve just pushed this, let me know how ‘guix pull’ works for you!

In addition to this, I’ve created a Hydra job to build this new
“modular Guix”:

  https://hydra.gnu.org/jobset/guix/modular

If everything goes well, this should give us substitutes for at least
“guix-core” and “guix-extra”.  We have yet to see how long it takes to
evaluate it on hydra.gnu.org and adjust the evaluation frequency
accordingly.

This part is currently commented out, it needs more work.  The main
issue is performance: we end up evaluating or building a lot of modules,
notably package modules, and again we hit the performance issues of the
compiler in Guile 2.2.2.

On IRC Marius reported that it doesn’t work, so I reverted (a very
short-lived commit!).

The issue is that we can’t really get away with module reloading, I’m
afraid.

Subject: [PATCH 0/4] 'guix pull' reloads modules, second try
Date: Mon, 11 Dec 2017 11:52:49 +0100
Hello!

I’ve pushed the following patches to ‘wip-pull-reload’ so you can test
from whatever snapshot you’re currently running:

  guix pull --branch=wip-pull-reload

As a reminder, this patch set does two things:

  1. Build Guix as several derivations, with the eventual goal of having
     substitutes made available by
     <https://hydra.gnu.org/jobset/guix/modular>.  Typically only the
     derivation corresponding to package modules will have to be built,
     which is already a lot, but better than rebuilding everything every
     time.

  2. Load the target Guix modules.  What this means is that the
     derivations above will depend on, say, the latest guile-git and
     guile-ssh package.

     Conversely, we’re currently using dependencies from the current
     Guix, which is a problem, for instance if one of the dependencies
     is broken as was the case in
     <https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=28988>.

#2 is tricky because it means we first have to re-compile and
re-evaluate a whole bunch of modules.  The approach that seems to work
OK is to compile just the core modules and to evaluate the others.
That’s still taking ~20 seconds or so on my laptop.

Thanks,
Ludo’.

I’m thinking that perhaps a middle ground would be to skip the reload
thing when we detect that the calling ‘guix’ is not prepared for module
reloads.

Subject: ‘guix pull’ builds using multiple derivations
Date: Tue, 27 Mar 2018 11:14:54 +0200
Hello Guix!

News from the front!  I’ve pushed a new ‘wip-pull-multiple-derivations’
branch that keeps the same approach as previously proposed (building
Guix using multiple derivation, one for each group of modules: core,
CLI, packages, etc.), but does not attempt to reload modules in the
running Guile process, which proved to be too tricky.

You can already test with:

  guix pull --branch=wip-pull-multiple-derivations

Feedback welcome!

This patch set actually addresses a bootstrapping issue: you need Guix
to build Guix.  So far ‘guix pull’ would sidestep the bootstrapping
issue by building Guix with whatever is available in the currently
deployed Guix; for instance, it would use the ‘guile’, ‘guile-json’,
etc. packages from the current Guix.  The problem of that approach was
that it’s stateful: the result depends on what you currently have.
Sometimes what you have is too old, or lacks some package definition,
and you can’t really go forward.

The code in ‘wip-pull-multiple-derivations’ works like this:

  1. Assume we have Guile and Guix already installed, but not
     necessarily the latest versions thereof.

  2. Using the (guix …) modules that we have, build a program—a
     “trampoline”—that will use the modules of the target Guix (the
     commit we want to pull) to compute the derivation of that Guix.

  3. Run that trampoline, which returns /gnu/store/…-guix.drv.  The
     result should be the same regardless of the initial Guix because
     the trampoline uses exclusively modules from the target Guix.

  4. ‘guix pull’ builds that derivation (actually the branch does not
     modify (guix scripts pull) at all; everything is in
     build-aux/build-self.scm.)

In step #4, we should be able to get substitutes for at least some of
the derivations.

To build the trampoline in step #2, we first need to build a bunch of
modules from the target Guix.  Hopefully you don’t have to rebuild them
at each pull, but it can take a minute or so, and you may not have
substitutes for that (because this part is stateful.)

In step #3, the trampoline has compiled code for the core modules, but
it still has to interpret (gnu packages guile) and related modules,
because these are not compiled.  The program runs in ~40s on my laptop.
To make it faster, we could reduce the closure of (gnu packages guile)¹,
but that can be tricky.  Or we could optimize Guile itself; I’m sure the
compiler and/or interpreter could do better.

In that branch, you can also run:

  make as-derivation

and it will build Guix from $srcdir in the way described above.

To summarize, performance is not great, but hopefully it’ll be slightly
better than what we have now, especially with substitutes.
Correctness/reproducibility are greatly improved.

Oops, I had deleted the branch to push a new version, except that
pushing didn’t happen.  Should be okay now, thanks for the heads-up!

After quite a bit of tweaking I’ve finally pushed this patch series to
master.  So if you run ‘guix pull’ now, you’ll get the new
multiple-derivation build.

There’s still room for improvement, in particular:

  • The initial ‘compute-guix-derivation’ program depends on quite a few
    modules, so the first time you ‘guix pull’ you build a
    module-import-compiled.drv that takes a while and does not produce
    any output (I’ve made it verbose in core-updates commit
    d32922759bfeffa03ee189158ea00b1a0ddbe8c6 though).  Perhaps we could
    avoid that by using a double trampoline, which would allow us to get
    substitutes for all the non-trivial bits.

  • The “guix-packages” derivation is coarse-grain.  We could perhaps
    automatically split it in clusters of modules by analyzing the (gnu
    packages …) module graph.

  • The compiler (and interpreter) in Guile 2.2 is still not as fast as
    we’d like.  I think it should be possible to make it as fast as in
    2.0, at least when optimizations are turned off.  Andy made
    significant improvements in 2.2.3, but hopefully we can still
    improve on that.  The thread at
    <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guile-devel/2017-10/msg00035.html>
    contains some info.

Normally berlin.guixsd.org will start providing substitutes for all this
but note that, as things are, it’ll compute substitutes for Guile 2.2.2
or 2.2.3, and that’s it.  hydra.gnu.org currently doesn’t, for obscure
reasons (‘hydra-eval-guile-jobs’ systematically adds “.” to the load
path, which is not what we want for build-aux/hydra/guix-modular.scm.)

This works unlocks some of the stuff in <https://bugs.gnu.org/22629>, so
I’ll try to focus on that now.

Feedback and bug reports welcome!

This is really great!  I’m very happy that this is finally in the master
branch.  Thank you!

As discussed on IRC, there is a problem when running “guix pull” with an
older version of Guix that is still using Guile 2.0, which seems to be
adequately fixed by your patch:

A remaining problem for me was that “(guix docker)” could not be built
because “(json)” was supposedly not available.

None of this seems to be a problem when using Guile 2.2.

I think we should do this anyway and try to split up large modules and
reduce inter-module dependencies.

It’s still not as good as we’d like obviously, but if you’re lucky, you
get pull in 5 minutes now.
