With recent versions of `rustc`, incremental compilation caches pretty much 
everything after parsing and macro expansion. However, the style crate in 
particular has proven to be rather resistant to our incremental compilation 
approach so far. I will indeed spend quite a bit of time investigating this 
over the next few months.

Re: Must we rebuild all our rust code constantly?

2019-08-24 Thread ISHIKAWA,chiaki

Here is my own answer to clean up the mess of version mismatches, etc.

I did the following.

1. I removed ~/.mozbuild and ~/.cargo directory and
re-ran |make bootstrap|.
(I am not sure if removing ~/.cargo directory was a good idea.)

2. I revered my local changes before I update the M-C and C-C (./comm).

3. Then I noticed mozilla/Cargo.lock has been modified when I tried to 
reapply my local changes.

This file was presumably changed when I did my own sccache installation.

So I reverted the change to Cargo.lock, and now it seems that the 
compilation is proceeding... (Not sure if the result is OK.)



4. When I did this, I noticed there is sccache 0.2.11-Alpha.0 under 
~/.mozbuild/sccache directory.
Obviously, I was using my own installed older version of sccache which I 
installed many months ago.
So I added the path to this sccache in my script for building TB and it 
seems to be compiling TB.


I added the following in my mozconfig for TB, but I am not sure if this 
is the right way to disable incremental compilation.


mk_add_options "export CARGO_INCREMENTAL=0"

TIA

for more than a few years suddenly printed the following and failed. I

What's your sccache version? I think you may be hitting the following 
sccache bug which has been fixed already:

https://github.com/mozilla/sccache/issues/436

I'm using sccache 0.2.9 and I don't see rust code rebuilding constantly.

`ac_add_options --disable-cargo-incremental` in your mozconfig should do
it.  See:

I don’t know how much it has evolved since, but the initial versions of 
incremental compilation in rustc only cached code generation in LLVM. 
Type checking, trait resolution, etc. was still done every time rustc 
was invoked for a crate.

I had a similar experience on a 36-core machine earlier today. It seems
incremental is not working properly for the style crate: incremental is
supposed to have the same effect as sccache, but it still takes a long
time to compile style. I'm told mw is going to look into this in the
coming weeks.

In the meanwhile, as discussed on irc, it seems fair to disable
CARGO_INCREMENTAL when building with sccache.

sccache will still cache dependencies from crates.io. From a quick check
building the rust in the tree on my laptop, a full cache hit for rust with
sccache produces a significant speedup (2x) versus incremental alone.

I've never been able to reproduce this issue, and that would explain why.

Can someone who's experienced this confirm upgrading sccache fixes it?

Well, I have a problem now after trying to update sccache just in case I 
need a new version in the future.


I did the following:

cargo install --force sccache

(I was not so sure of what the proper update procedure of already 
installed package. sccache 2.0.8-alpha-something was already installed.)


Then when I try to compile TB using the command script which worked for

I have run |mach bootstrap| to see if it fixes the issue. It did not.

Re: Must we rebuild all our rust code constantly?

2019-08-20 Thread Eric Rahm
You can use |mach clobber --full| to remove the incremental cache. It might
be worth filing a bug for the large size, my best guess is that we're
keeping around items from old compiler versions. It's possible we could do
a full clobber of the IC when we detect a new compiler version, but that
might not be a great experience for folks testing on different rust
versions.

But, this means that now an incremental build with a couple of code 
change
that have no impact on rust is taking upwards of 4 minutes to 
complete in
comparison to around 40 seconds, and the log file is full of cargo 
output.

I've heard similar comments from other developers.

This is a pretty big increase in the time to compile and test and is
really slowing down my work. Is there any way we can avoid this?






I am using linux for local development and noticed something similar.

So I should disable sccache (!?).


For what it's worth, Rust is now configured to use incremental 
compilation, which has its own cache which isn't cleared after 
clobber, so sccache isn't actually needed anymore. Ordinary ccache 
should be sufficient.





I was not sure where this incremental compilation cache is located.
Sure enough on my computer it seems to live under
MOZ_OBJ/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/debug/incremental

I have a serious question: does this incremental cache have a control 
mechanism to purge old entries?


I have been hit with file system overflow errors quite frequently since 
early summer and I figure
this is due to the bloated 
MOZ_OBJ/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/debug/incremental directory.


It is now 26.6 GB with 67840 items according baobab file system usage 
monitor.


26.6 GB for this incremental cache alone is way too much number that was 
suggested by mozilla development document before.

In comparsion, ccache I use is usable with max size of 5GB
as set by
CCACHE_SIZE=5.0GB
in my script.

On my local PC, I see that the file directory size (with the sizes of 
subdirectories added to it) is as follows:


MOZ_OBJ is 45.8 GB large. (as of now: I had to stop TB compilation due 
to the 50 GB smallish partition overflow where this directory is located.)

MOZ_OBJ/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/ is 33.9 GB large .
MOZ_OBJ/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/debug/  is 33.9 GB large.
    I think /debug/ is because I create full debug version of TB locally.
MOZ_OBJ/MOZ_OBJ/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/debug/incremental is 26.5 GB large.

I need a way to shrink this incremental cache reasonably.
It seems this incremental directory grows without limit. Or, it does not 
trim old unusable cache files automatically.


TIA

Hi all,

I'm not sure whether Thunderbirds are different, but the issue is that 
(on Windows) xul.dll is constantly relinked although there haven't been 
any changes to C++ or RS files. Log below.


Oh, you can also see some ugly hunspell warnings that have crept in a 
while ago.

This is apparently a known bug that no-one seems to be able to 
track down the cause of. It suddenly started happening to me one 
night for every build, even if I changed nothing. Then, just as 
suddenly, stopped happening after a couple of hours.
