Although for example in this case ccache helped to find a real GDB bug: https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-01/msg00497.html For the GDB testcases ccache has (IMO) no real performance advantage and it just brings heisenbugs - false FAILs - from time to time: Breakpoint 1, main () at gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/vdso-warning.c:21^M 21 return 0;^M (gdb) PASS: gdb.base/vdso-warning.exp: run: startup -> Breakpoint 1, main () at gdb/testsuite/gdb.base/hbreak-unmapped.c:21^M 21 return 0;^M (gdb) FAIL: gdb.base/vdso-warning.exp: run: startup So I find most safe and easy to just disable ccache for all testsuites. gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog 2016-09-15 Jan Kratochvil * lib/future.exp: Set CCACHE_DISABLE, clear CCACHE_NODISABLE. --- diff --git a/gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog b/gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog index c63ea72e5f9..cf49f25fb30 100644 --- a/gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog +++ b/gdb/testsuite/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,7 @@ +2016-09-15 Jan Kratochvil + + * lib/future.exp: Set CCACHE_DISABLE, clear CCACHE_NODISABLE. + 2016-09-11 Sergio Durigan Junior Jan Kratochvil diff --git a/gdb/testsuite/lib/future.exp b/gdb/testsuite/lib/future.exp index 2ecff2ef200..e7c9d9ae3a8 100644 --- a/gdb/testsuite/lib/future.exp +++ b/gdb/testsuite/lib/future.exp @@ -666,3 +666,8 @@ if {[info procs lreverse] == ""} { return $retval } } + +# Various ccache versions provide incorrect debug info such as ignoring +# different current directory, breaking GDB testsuite. +set env(CCACHE_DISABLE) 1 +unset -nocomplain env(CCACHE_NODISABLE)
