Hi Sebastien,
A long while ago (~2 years) there was a patch for ccache posted on the distcc
mailing list. This patch enabled ccache to use distcc without changing the hash.
I don't know whether it is incorporated into the current ccache version. But
we are using this patch in our ccache version here and it works perfectly.
I have attached the patch again to my mail. But please remember that it is a
patch against a very old ccache version so it could not be applied to the
current ccache version, i suppose. But maybe you can see how it could be done.
Bye, Marcus

Subject: [distcc] [patch] support for distcc in ccache
Date: Thu, 15 Aug 2002 13:47:08 +0200
From: Chris Halls <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I've had a go at integrating support for distcc into ccache directly. It
solves these issues:
- ccache's compiler timestamp check was using the distcc binary instead of
the compiler, so a compiler upgrade would trigger a cache hit (ie no
recompilation), and a distcc upgrade would trigger a cache miss.
- ccache treated 'distcc gcc ...' and 'gcc ...' for the same source file as
different, meaning a complete recompile was necessary when switching
between using distcc and not using distcc with ccache.
- If DISTCC_VERBOSE was set, distcc's messages would be cached, too, giving
misleeding output when a file was retreived form the cache.
- distcc was called needlessly during the preprocessing step.
To use, set the enviroment variable CCACHE_DISTCC. You do not need to
specify distcc directly. In other words:
CC="ccache distcc gcc" make
becomes:
CCACHE_DISTCC=1 CC="ccache gcc" make
or, if ccache is installed as gcc on your path:
CCACHE_DISTCC=1 make
The patch is against current ccache CVS, but should apply against the latest
released version, too. I'd be grateful for feedback, and whether this would
be suitable for me to send to the ccache author.
Thanks,
Chris
