- bsd.compiler.mk: Must ensure that the CCACHE_WRAPPER_PATH comes first
in PATH.
- Makefile.inc1: Must prepend the CCACHE_WRAPPER_PATH into BPATH as it
overrides the PATH set in bsd.compiler.mk in sub-makes. The PATH
set in bsd.compiler.mk is not exported and doing so would cause it to
then override the BPATH set from environment. The only sane solution
is to prepend into BPATH as needed.
CCACHE_PATH could possibly be used for some of this as well.

This uses the /usr/local/libexec/ccache/<cc,c++> wrappers rather than
modifying CC to be '/usr/local/bin/ccache cc'. Some forms of compilation
do not support the 'command' type.

ccache is mostly beneficial for frequent builds where -DNO_CLEAN is not
used to achieve a safe pseudo-incremental build. This is explained in
more detail upstream [1] [2]. It incurs about a 20%-28% hit to populate the
cache, but with a full cache saves 30-50% in build times. When combined with
the WITH_FAST_DEPEND feature it saves up to 65% since ccache does cache the
resulting dependency file, which it does not do when using mkdep(1)/'CC
-E'. Stats are provided at the end of this message.
This removes the need to modify /etc/make.conf with the CC:= and CXX:=
lines which conflicted with external compiler support [3] (causing the
bootstrap compiler to not be built which lead to obscure failures [4]),
incorrectly invoked ccache in various stages, required CCACHE_CPP2 to avoid
Clang errors with parenthesis, and did not work with META_MODE.
The option name was picked to match the existing option in ports. This
feature is available for both in-src and out-of-src builds that use
/usr/share/mk.
Linking, assembly compiles, and pre-processing avoid using ccache since it is
only overhead. ccache does nothing special in these modes, although there is
no harm in calling it for them.
CCACHE_COMPILERCHECK is set to 'content' when using the in-tree bootstrap
compiler to hash the content of the compiler binary to determine if it
should be a cache miss. For external compilers the 'mtime' option is used
as it is more efficient and likely to be correct. Future work may optimize the
'content' check using the same checks as whether a bootstrap compiler is needed
to be built.
The CCACHE_CPP2 pessimization is currently default in our devel/ccache
port due to Clang requiring it. Clang's -Wparentheses-equality,
-Wtautological-compare, and -Wself-assign warnings do not mix well with
compiling already-pre-processed code that may have expanded macros that
trigger the warnings. GCC has so far not had this issue so it is allowed to
disable the CCACHE_CPP2 default in our port.
Sharing a cache between multiple checkouts, or systems, is explained in
the ccache manual. Sharing a cache over NFS would likely not be worth
it, but syncing cache directories between systems may be useful for an
organization. There is also a memcached backend available [5]. Due to using
an object directory outside of the source directory though you will need to
ensure that both are in the same prefix and all users use the same layout. A
possible working layout is as follows:
Source: /some/prefix/src1
Source: /some/prefix/src2
Source: /some/prefix/src3
Objdir: /some/prefix/obj
Environment: CCACHE_BASEDIR='${SRCTOP:H}' MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX='${SRCTOP:H}/obj'
This will use src*/../obj as the MAKEOBJDIRPREFIX and tells ccache to replace
all absolute paths to be relative. Using something like this is required due
to -I and -o flags containing both SRC and OBJDIR absolute paths that ccache
adds into its hash for the object without CCACHE_BASEDIR.
distcc can be hooked into by setting CCACHE_PREFIX=/usr/local/bin/distcc.
I have not personally tested this and assume it will not mix well with
using the bootstrap compiler.
The cache from buildworld can be reused in a subdir by first running
'make buildenv' (from r290424).
Note that the cache is currently different depending on whether -j is
used or not due to ccache enabling -fdiagnostics-color automatically if
stderr is a TTY, which bmake only does if not using -j.
The system I used for testing was:
WITNESS
Build options: -j20 WITH_LLDB=yes WITH_DEBUG_FILES=yes WITH_CCACHE_BUILD=yes
DISK: ZFS 3-way mirror with very slow disks using SSD l2arc/log.
The arc was fully populated with src tree files and ccache objects.
RAM: 76GiB
CPU: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU L5520 @2.27GHz
2 package(s) x 4 core(s) x 2 SMT threads = hw.ncpu=16
The WITH_FAST_DEPEND feature was used for comparison here as well to show
the dramatic time savings with a full cache.

This uses a special variable name based on a hash of ${CC}, ${PATH}, and
${MACHINE} to ensure that a cached value is not used if any of these
values changes to use a new compiler.
Before this there were 34,620 fork/exec from bsd.compiler.mk during a buildworld.
After this there are 608. More improvement is needed to cache a value from
the top-level before descending into subdirs in the various build phases.

Makefiles are evaluated without building things. In a normal build,
the prerequisites would be built, and CC would be an actual thing. In
an INDEX build, though, they don't exists. Redirect stderr to get rid
of annoying messages, and assume that the compiler version is 0 if the
actual compiler can't tell us. Do this in preference to guessing based
on numbers because gcc410 might be 4.10, or 4.1.0 and without
carefully crafted special knowledge we differentiate between them
easily (also ming-gcc has no clues at all). Elsewhere, don't trust
the compiler version if it is 0.

COMPILER_TYPE without including the bsd.compiler.mk anymore. In the
source tree, this caused no problems, for reasons that aren't clear,

bsd.compiler.mk to be included multiple times safely, and always
include bsd.compiler.mk at the top of bsd.prog.mk. Resist the urge to
put it in bsd.init.mk, since that would reintroduce the implicit

When the compiler is clang add c++11 to COMPILER_FEATURES.
When the compiler supports c++11, default to building libc++. This will

To avoid negative performance impacts in the default case and correct
value for COMPILER_TYPE type is determined and passed in the environment

Replace adhoc attempts at determining the compiler type by examining
CC or MK_CLANG_IS_CC with checks of COMPILER_TYPE. This eliminates
bootstrapping complications when first setting WITH_CLANG_IS_CC.
