# Compile-cache backend: ccache (https://ccache.dev/).
#
# Wraps compiler invocations for kernel / u-boot / ATF / Crust through the
# `ccache` binary and emits per-build hit/miss stats. Implements the generic
# `compile_wrapper_pre/post` hooks (so stats are still shown on interrupt)
# and the per-component `*_make_config` hooks (so the env is set up uniformly
# regardless of which artifact is being built).
#
# Auto-enabled by core when USE_CCACHE=yes or PRIVATE_CCACHE=yes is set, or
# when the ccache-remote extension is requested (see
# main_config_redefine_user_target in main-config.sh).
# Can also be enabled explicitly via ENABLE_EXTENSIONS=ccache regardless of
# the USE_CCACHE toggle.
#
# Mutually exclusive with other compile-cache extensions (sccache, …) — the
# mutex is enforced in extension_prepare_config__ccache.
#
# Ordering invariant: all per-build env wiring (CCACHE_DIR, CCACHE_UMASK,
# PATH prefix, ${CCACHE}) is set inside the *_make_config hooks, which fire
# during the compile phase — after every extension_prepare_config_* hook
# has run. This makes the extension safe against other extensions that set
# USE_CCACHE / PRIVATE_CCACHE late in extension_prepare_config (e.g.
# ccache-remote) regardless of alphabetical ordering.

# Cross-hook state for SHOW_CCACHE pre→post (dir-size diff calculation).

P2 Badge Honor EXT when checking cache-backend conflicts

If users enable extensions through the documented EXT alias, e.g. EXT=ccache,sccache with a user-provided sccache extension, this mutex check never sees the competing backend because it only inspects ENABLE_EXTENSIONS. The extension manager later loads both entries from EXT, so both cache backends can install their compiler wrappers and pre/post hooks despite the intended mutual exclusion.
