testsuite: Disable ccache
There were always various problems with compatibility with ccache: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=488863 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=759592 https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2009-02/msg00397.html IMO in a summary ccache finds more a benefit of faster compilation despite the debug info is no longer exactly the same (as without ccache). 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 <jan.kratochvil@redhat.com> * lib/future.exp: Set CCACHE_DISABLE, clear CCACHE_NODISABLE.
