[ccache] Multiple targets with preprocessor mode and -g (was Re: Single 'source' collection, multiple targets)

Hello Joel,

Thanks for helping!

I just tried your script, and I also get 1 cache miss and 1 preprocessed cache hit.
I'm wondering if I made a mistake in my original test by configuring the CCACHE_BASEDIR incorrectly.

So looks like the issue was me, sorry for bothering!

Greetings,
Mathias

Hi Mathias,

> # 1 "/home/mdemare/testdir/target2//" <--- this is an issue!

The basedir feature is supposed to rewrite that path as well, and it seems to work when I test it using this quick shell script:

=====================================================
#!/bin/sh

mkdir testdir.$$
cd testdir.$$

export CCACHE_DIR=$PWD/ccache.$$
export CCACHE_NODIRECT=1
export CCACHE_BASEDIR=$PWD
ccache=ccache
gcc=/usr/bin/gcc

mkdir a b
touch src.c
(cd a && $ccache $gcc -g -c ../src.c)
(cd b && $ccache $gcc -g -c ../src.c)
$ccache -s
cd ..
rm -rf testdir.$$
=====================================================

When I run it, it prints one cache miss and one preprocessed cache hit. I tested both ccache 3.1.8 and current master. What happens when you run it?

Now, I actually have another issue which is partly related.
It seems building for multiple targets with the preprocessor mode and compiler option '-g' doesn't work for us.
The preprocessed file contains the location where the build is executed.
An example:
# 1 "src/foo.cpp"
# 1 "/home/mdemare/testdir/target2//" <--- this is an issue!
# 1 "<built-in>"
# 1 "<command-line>"
# 1 "src/foo.cpp"
int main() {
    return 0;
}
If I build for one target in '/home/mdemare/testdir/target1' and for another target in '/home/mdemare/testdir/target2', this results in a cache miss.
Using the direct mode (since there is no preprocessing), this issue does not occur.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think this is something that ccache should change when using 'CCACHE_BASEDIR'.
Apparently, it's possible to use the gcc option '-fno-working-directory'. This gets rid of the issue for the example above.


Greetings,
Mathias
