-synopsis: "JSON format changes for store path info and derivations"
-prs: []
-issues: []
----
-
-JSON formats for store path info and derivations have been updated with new versions and structured fields.
-
-## Store Path Info JSON (Version 2)
-
-The store path info JSON format has been updated from version 1 to version 2:
-
-- **Added `version` field**:
-
-  All store path info JSON now includes `"version": 2`.
-
-- **Structured `ca` field**:
-
-  Content address is now a structured JSON object instead of a string:
-
-  - Old: `"ca": "fixed:r:sha256:1abc..."`
-  - New: `"ca": {"method": "nar", "hash": {"algorithm": "sha256", "format": "base64", "hash": "EMIJ+giQ..."}}`
-  - Still `null` values for input-addressed store objects
-
-- **Structured hash fields**:
-
-  Hash values (`narHash` and `downloadHash`) are now structured JSON objects instead of strings:
-
-  - Old: `"narHash": "sha256:FePFYIlMuycIXPZbWi7LGEiMmZSX9FMbaQenWBzm1Sc="`
-  - New: `"narHash": {"algorithm": "sha256", "format": "base64", "hash": "FePFYIlM..."}`
-  - Same structure applies to `downloadHash` in NAR info contexts
-
-Nix currently only produces, and doesn't consume this format.
-
-**Affected command**: `nix path-info --json`
-
-## Derivation JSON (Version 4)
-
-The derivation JSON format has been updated from version 3 to version 4:
-
-- **Restructured inputs**:
-
-  Inputs are now nested under an `inputs` object:
-
-  - Old: `"inputSrcs": [...], "inputDrvs": {...}`
-  - New: `"inputs": {"srcs": [...], "drvs": {...}}`
-
-- **Consistent content addresses**:
-
-  Floating content-addressed outputs now use structured JSON format.
-  This is the same format as `ca` in in store path info (after the new version).
-
-Version 3 and earlier formats are *not* accepted when reading.

+---
+
+Flakes have always a `sourceInfo` attribute which describes the source of the flake.
+The `sourceInfo.outPath` is often identical to the flake's `outPath`, however it can differ when the flake is located in a subdirectory of its source.
+
+Non-flake inputs (i.e. inputs with `flake = false`) can also be located at some path _within_ a wider source.
+This usually happens when defining a relative path input within the same source as the parent flake, e.g. `inputs.foo.url = ./some-file.nix`.
+Such relative inputs will now inherit their parent's `sourceInfo`.
+
+This also means it is now possible to use `?dir=subdir` on non-flake inputs.
+
+This iterates on the work done in 2.26 to improve relative path support ([#10089](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/pull/10089)),
+and resolves a regression introduced in 2.28 relating to nested relative path inputs ([#13164](https://github.com/NixOS/nix/issues/13164)).

-S3 binary cache operations now happen via HTTP, leveraging `libcurl`'s native
-AWS SigV4 authentication instead of the AWS C++ SDK, providing significant
-improvements:
-
-- **Reduced memory usage**: Eliminates memory buffering issues that caused
-  segfaults with large files
-- **Fixed upload reliability**: Resolves AWS SDK chunking errors
-  (`InvalidChunkSizeError`)
-- **Lighter dependencies**: Uses lightweight `aws-crt-cpp` instead of full
-  `aws-cpp-sdk`, reducing build complexity
-
-The new implementation requires curl >= 7.75.0 and `aws-crt-cpp` for credential
-management.
-
-All existing S3 URL formats and parameters remain supported, however the store
-settings for configuring multipart uploads have changed:
-
-- **`multipart-upload`** (default: `false`): Enable multipart uploads for large
-  files. When enabled, files exceeding the multipart threshold will be uploaded
-  in multiple parts.
-
-- **`multipart-threshold`** (default: `100 MiB`): Minimum file size for using
-  multipart uploads. Files smaller than this will use regular PUT requests.
-  Only takes effect when `multipart-upload` is enabled.
-
-- **`multipart-chunk-size`** (default: `5 MiB`): Size of each part in multipart
-  uploads. Must be at least 5 MiB (AWS S3 requirement). Larger chunk sizes
-  reduce the number of requests but use more memory.
-
-- **`buffer-size`**: Has been replaced by `multipart-chunk-size` and is now an alias to it.
-
-Note that this change also means Nix now supports S3 binary cache stores even
-if built without `aws-crt-cpp`, but only for public buckets which do not
-require authentication.

----
-
-S3 binary cache stores now support configuring the storage class for uploaded objects via the `storage-class` parameter. This allows users to optimize costs by selecting appropriate storage tiers based on access patterns.
-
-Example usage:
-
-```bash
-# Use Glacier storage for long-term archival
-nix copy --to 's3://my-bucket?storage-class=GLACIER' /nix/store/...
-
-# Use Intelligent Tiering for automatic cost optimization
-nix copy --to 's3://my-bucket?storage-class=INTELLIGENT_TIERING' /nix/store/...
-```
-
-The storage class applies to both regular uploads and multipart uploads. When not specified, objects use the bucket's default storage class.
-
-See the [S3 storage classes documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/storage-class-intro.html) for available storage classes and their characteristics.

-# Running Benchmarks
-
-This guide explains how to build and run performance benchmarks in the Nix codebase.
-
-## Overview
-
-Nix uses the [Google Benchmark](https://github.com/google/benchmark) framework for performance testing. Benchmarks help measure and track the performance of critical operations like derivation parsing.
-
-## Building Benchmarks
-
-Benchmarks are disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled during the build configuration. For accurate results, use a debug-optimized release build.
-
-### Development Environment Setup
-
-First, enter the development shell which includes the necessary dependencies:
-
-```bash
-nix develop .#native-ccacheStdenv
-```
-
-### Configure Build with Benchmarks
-
-From the project root, configure the build with benchmarks enabled and optimization:
-
-```bash
-cd build
-meson configure -Dbenchmarks=true -Dbuildtype=debugoptimized
-```
-
-The `debugoptimized` build type provides:
-- Compiler optimizations for realistic performance measurements
-- Debug symbols for profiling and analysis
-- Balance between performance and debuggability
-
-### Build the Benchmarks
-
-Build the project including benchmarks:
-
-```bash
-ninja
-```
-
-This will create benchmark executables in the build directory. Currently available:
-- `build/src/libstore-tests/nix-store-benchmarks` - Store-related performance benchmarks
-
-Additional benchmark executables will be created as more benchmarks are added to the codebase.
-
-## Running Benchmarks
-
-### Basic Usage
-
-Run benchmark executables directly. For example, to run store benchmarks:
-
-```bash
-./build/src/libstore-tests/nix-store-benchmarks
-```
-
-As more benchmark executables are added, run them similarly from their respective build directories.
-
-### Filtering Benchmarks
-
-Run specific benchmarks using regex patterns:
-
-```bash
-# Run only derivation parser benchmarks
-./build/src/libstore-tests/nix-store-benchmarks --benchmark_filter="derivation.*"
-
-# Run only benchmarks for hello.drv
-./build/src/libstore-tests/nix-store-benchmarks --benchmark_filter=".*hello.*"
-```
-
-### Output Formats
-
-Generate benchmark results in different formats:
-
-```bash
-# JSON output
-./build/src/libstore-tests/nix-store-benchmarks --benchmark_format=json > results.json
-
-# CSV output
-./build/src/libstore-tests/nix-store-benchmarks --benchmark_format=csv > results.csv
-```
-
-### Advanced Options
-
-```bash
-# Run benchmarks multiple times for better statistics
-./build/src/libstore-tests/nix-store-benchmarks --benchmark_repetitions=10
-
-# Set minimum benchmark time (useful for micro-benchmarks)
-./build/src/libstore-tests/nix-store-benchmarks --benchmark_min_time=2
-
-# Compare against baseline
-./build/src/libstore-tests/nix-store-benchmarks --benchmark_baseline=baseline.json
-
-# Display time in custom units
-./build/src/libstore-tests/nix-store-benchmarks --benchmark_time_unit=ms
-```
-
-## Writing New Benchmarks
-
-To add new benchmarks:
-
-1. Create a new `.cc` file in the appropriate `*-tests` directory
-2. Include the benchmark header:
-   ```cpp
-   #include <benchmark/benchmark.h>
-   ```
-
-3. Write benchmark functions:
-   ```cpp
-   static void BM_YourBenchmark(benchmark::State & state)
-   {
-       // Setup code here
-
-       for (auto _ : state) {
-           // Code to benchmark
-       }
-   }
-   BENCHMARK(BM_YourBenchmark);
-   ```
-
-4. Add the file to the corresponding `meson.build`:
-   ```meson
-   benchmarks_sources = files(
-       'your-benchmark.cc',
-       # existing benchmarks...
-   )
-   ```
-
-## Profiling with Benchmarks
-
-For deeper performance analysis, combine benchmarks with profiling tools:
-
-```bash
-# Using Linux perf
-perf record ./build/src/libstore-tests/nix-store-benchmarks
-perf report
-```
-
-### Using Valgrind Callgrind
-
-Valgrind's callgrind tool provides detailed profiling information that can be visualized with kcachegrind:
-
-```bash
-# Profile with callgrind
-valgrind --tool=callgrind ./build/src/libstore-tests/nix-store-benchmarks
-
-# Visualize the results with kcachegrind
-kcachegrind callgrind.out.*
-```
-
-This provides:
-- Function call graphs
-- Instruction-level profiling
-- Source code annotation
-- Interactive visualization of performance bottlenecks
-
-## Continuous Performance Testing
-
-```bash
-# Save baseline results
-./build/src/libstore-tests/nix-store-benchmarks --benchmark_format=json > baseline.json
-
-# Compare against baseline in CI
-./build/src/libstore-tests/nix-store-benchmarks --benchmark_baseline=baseline.json
-```
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Benchmarks not building
-
-Ensure benchmarks are enabled:
-```bash
-meson configure build | grep benchmarks
-# Should show: benchmarks true
-```
-
-### Inconsistent results
-
-- Ensure your system is not under heavy load
-- Disable CPU frequency scaling for consistent results
-- Run benchmarks multiple times with `--benchmark_repetitions`

-  ### Field Categories
-
-  Store object information can come in a few different variations.
-
-  Firstly, "impure" fields, which contain non-intrinsic information about the store object, may or may not be included.
-
-  Second, binary cache stores have extra non-intrinsic infomation about the store objects they contain.
-
-  Thirdly, [`nix path-info --json --closure-size`](@docroot@/command-ref/new-cli/nix3-path-info.html#opt-closure-size) can compute some extra information about not just the single store object in question, but the store object and its [closure](@docroot@/glossary.md#gloss-closure).
-
-  The impure and NAR fields are grouped into separate variants below.
-  See their descriptions for additional information.
-  The closure fields however as just included as optional fields, to avoid a combinatorial explosion of variants.

-title: Store Path
-description: |
-  A [store path](@docroot@/store/store-path.md) identifying a store object.
-
-  This schema describes the JSON representation of store paths as used in various Nix JSON APIs.
-
-  > **Warning**
-  >
-  > This JSON format is currently
-  > [**experimental**](@docroot@/development/experimental-features.md#xp-feature-nix-command)
-  > and subject to change.
-
-  ## Format
-
-  Store paths in JSON are represented as strings containing just the hash and name portion, without the store directory prefix.
-
-  For example: `"g1w7hy3qg1w7hy3qg1w7hy3qg1w7hy3q-foo.drv"`
-
-  (If the store dir is `/nix/store`, then this corresponds to the path `/nix/store/g1w7hy3qg1w7hy3qg1w7hy3qg1w7hy3q-foo.drv`.)
-
-  ## Structure
-
-  The format follows this pattern: `${digest}-${name}`
-
-  - **hash**: Digest rendered in a custom variant of [Base32](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Base32) (20 arbitrary bytes become 32 ASCII characters)
-  - **name**: The package name and optional version/suffix information
-
-type: string
