procedures.

'with-machine-lock'.
* guix/http-client.scm (&http-get-error): New condition type.
(http-fetch): Raise it instead of using 'error'.
* guix/scripts/substitute-binary.scm (fetch) <http>: Wrap body into
'guard' form; gracefully handle 'http-get-error?' conditions.

machine-less-loaded-or-faster?): New procedures.
(choose-build-machine): Use 'machine-less-loaded-or-faster?' when
sorting. Return the head of MACHINES unless it's loaded is >= 2.

argument to 'scandir'.
* tests/nar.scm ("write-file puts file in C locale collation order"):
New test.
* guix/derivations.scm (<derivation-output>): Add 'recursive?' field.
Adjust 'make-derivation-output' callers.
(%read-derivation) <fixed-output>: When HASH-ALGO starts with 'r:',
set the 'recursive?' field and drop 'r:' from the hash algo name.
(write-derivation)[write-output]: Write the algo as 'r:HASH-ALGO' when
the RECURSIVE? field is set.
(derivation-hash) <fixed-output>: Prepend "r:" when RECURSIVE? is set.
(fixed-output-path): New procedure.
(derivation): Add #:recursive? parameter. Use 'fixed-output-path' to
compute the output file name of a fixed output derivation.
(build-expression->derivation): Add #:recursive? parameter. Pass it
to 'derivation'.
* tests/derivations.scm ("fixed-output derivation, recursive",
"build-expression->derivation produces recursive fixed-output",

Add #:recursive? for 'build-expression->derivation'.
* guix/scripts/hash.scm (show-help): Add --recursive.
(%options): Likewise.
(guix-hash)[file-hash]: New procedure. Honor --recursive.
Use it.
* guix/nar.scm (write-file): Add missing field to the &nar-error
condition raised upon unsupported file type; change its message to be

system".
(Invoking guix system): New node.
* guix/build/union.scm (file=?): Return #f if FILE1 and FILE2 are not
regular files. Fixes a bug whereby collisions among directories would
lead to the invocation of 'file=?' and thus 'call-with-input-file' on
directories. Reported by Mark H. Weaver <mhw@netris.org>.
Fixes <http://bugs.gnu.org/16703>.
Reported by Raimon Grau <raimonster@gmail.com>.
* guix/build/download.scm (http-fetch)[headers]: New variable.
Pass it as #:headers or #:extra-headers to 'http-get' and
'http-get*'.
* guix/monads.scm (text-file*): New procedure.
* tests/monads.scm ("text-file*"): New test.
* doc/guix.texi (The Store Monad): Change example since the previous one
would erroneously fail to retain a reference to Coreutils. Document
'text-file*'.
* gnu/system/linux-initrd.scm (qemu-initrd)[virtio-9p-modules]: New
variable.
[linux-modules]: Append VIRTIO-9P-MODULES when a 9p file system is in
MOUNTS.
* guix/build/linux-initrd.scm (mount-qemu-9p): New procedure.
(boot-system): Recognize '9p' in MOUNTS, and use 'mount-qemu-9p'.
* guix/build/linux-initrd.scm (make-essential-device-nodes): Rename
devices with major = 8 to /dev/sda*. Make /dev/vda* devices.

* gnu/system/vm.scm (expression->derivation-in-linux-vm): Call
'qemu-initrd' with #:guile-modules-in-chroot?.
* guix/scripts/offload.scm (offload): Add 'log-port' keyword parameter.
Handle log display here. Return the result of (close-pipe pipe).
(process-request): Adjust 'offload' call site accordingly. Call

returns non-zero.

honor it.
(build-expression->derivation): Likewise.
* doc/guix.texi (Derivations): Update documentation of these
