XCACHE
xcache is based on ccache. It can store the outputs of compile into remote servers.
It consists of several components:
A new in-memory database which has high efficiency. All the outputs of compile will be stored in it.
It's just the ccache with the capability to communicate with the xcache.
The monitor of the xcache.
cd server && make -j
cd client && ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make -j
xcache and xcache_monitor under the directory of server
xcache_client under the the directory of server
Setup the xcache on remote server which is 127.0.0.1. We will run:
xcache -d -c -p 20190 -m 1
The parameter -d means to run as a daemon.
The parameter -c means to generate a core file when xcache crashed.
The parameter -m 1 means to set the original memory of the database to 1G.You can change the value by yourself.
The parameter -p 20190 means to set the port to 20190. You can change the value you like.
You can run xcache -h to see another parameters available.
Setup the xcache_client, Please run any one of the following commands.
export CCACHE_REMOTE_CONF="--SERVER=127.0.0.1:20190 10"
The value 10 is the xcache_core, please see the distribute cluster mode below.
Run the ccache to compile
xcache_client gcc test.c -c -o test.o
Setup the xcache on remote server which is 127.0.0.1. We will run two databases.
xcache -d -c -p 20190 -m 1
xcache -d -c -p 20191 -m 1
The parameter -d means to run as a daemon.
The parameter -c means to generate a core file when xcache crashed.
The parameter -m 1 means to set the original memory of the database to 1G.You can change the value by yourself.
The parameter -p 20190 means to set the port to 20190. You can change the value you like.
You can run xcache -h to see another parameters available.
Setup the proxy on remote server which is 127.0.0.1. Please run:
xcache -d -c -p 6666 -P
The parameter -P means to change the xcache to a proxy which has a high priority.
Tell the proxy about the information of the xcache. Please run :
xcache_monitor -S 127.0.0.1:6666["--SERVER=127.0.0.1:20190 10 --SERVER=127.0.0.1:20191 10"]
The format of command is like:
xcache_monitor -S proxy_ip:proxy_port["--SERVER=xcache_ip:xcache_port xcache_core"]
The xcache_core means the power of the database. The one which has bigger xcache_core would store more data than others.
Setup the xcache_client.
If you don’t use the proxy, please run:
export CCACHE_REMOTE_CONF="--SERVER=127.0.0.1:20190 10 --SERVER=127.0.0.1:20191 10"
If you use the proxy, please run one of the following commands:
export CCACHE_REMOTE_CONF="--PROXY=127.0.0.1:6666"
export CCACHE_REMOTE_CONF=`xcache_monitor -G 127.0.0.1:6666 | tail -1 | grep "SERVER="`
Run the ccache to compile
xcache_client gcc test.c -c -o test.o
