Motivation for this change

#49174 shows us the error that we were experiencing.
The last successful build was https://hydra.nixos.org/build/81938220, with the first failing here: https://hydra.nixos.org/build/82083071

Description

#49174 shows us the error that we were experiencing.
The last successful build was https://hydra.nixos.org/build/81938220, with the first failing here: https://hydra.nixos.org/build/82083071

The difference between these 2 builds seems to be Protobuf 3.4 being updated to Protobuf 3.6.

This commit makes MySQL 5.7 use c++ 11 to fix these issues as Protobuf 3.6 uses newer C++ features

Fixes #49174

Things done
  • Not entirely sure how to run all of this.
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nox --run "nox-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
    -> Can't do this one as it didn't work before. It's just a revert anyways, so it is the same as it once was.
  • Assured whether relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

I'd like to run https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/nixos/tests/mysql.nix, but I'm not sure how. Same with the sandbox

Please use -std=c++11 compilation flag instead; maybe by adding CXXFLAGS = "-std=c++11"; to the nix file.

The tests can be run with nix-build nixos/tests/mysql.nix, but only on Linux.

Can you elaborate a bit on how this solves the issue? I can see that c++ 11 is used (as opposed to which version?)

Protobuf 3.6 is incompatible, I assume, because it uses a different C++ compiler?

Protobuf fails because the newer version uses newer C++ features.

This is probably just another case of #54606

I can see that c++ 11 is used (as opposed to which version?)

Clang 6 has updated the default c++ from 98 to 14, but on Darwin we still use Clang 5. (Is there a github issue about updating the default LLVM on Darwin? Related: #49402, #39986.)

Can you elaborate a bit on how this solves the issue?

Protobuf 3.6 has dropped support for c++ older than 11: now all packages that use protobuf need -std=c++11 or newer.

@veprbl Maybe mysql does not declare that it needs C++ 11 because by itself it does not…

I'll look into that today, but I don't have easy access to linux. Any reason why this won't work on mac?

Can I add that to this pr? Should I?

Apologise for the many questions, quite new to nix and trying to wrap my head around it to migrate our company's developers to nix from homebrew et al.

NixOS tests build thin NixOS (Linux) images and run them in qemu, sharing host /nix/store with the guest. AFAIK there is no fundamental reason why this or equivalent can't be supported on macOS, but it is not easy. For one thing, if I'm not mistaken, nix-build nixos/tests/….nix does not establish cross compilation from the host OS to Linux if the host OS is not Linux.

I think this PR was ready as it was. I left it for a while for someone more active to merge it.
