From f044e03776652d4f822c2f3787142bda34364965 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Petazzoni Date: Wed, 7 Mar 2012 20:26:50 +0100 Subject: ccache: set COMPILERCHECK to 'none' This allows ccache to re-use its cache contents even if the compiler binary mtime has changed. It is the simplest approach to solve this problem, and it works for the internal, external and crosstool-ng toolchain backends. Of course, it leaves the user responsible for invalidating the cache when necessary, but there doesn't seem to be a real good solution that allows both to: 1/ keep the cache contents accross builds and re-use it and 2/ invalidate the cache automatically when the compiler chances in an incompatible way.
