Valid point - I forgot about that.

A couple of ideas come to mind:
  - static link LLVM (Flatpak already does it)
No LLVM changes needed.

  - shared link LLVM
LLVM add -Wl,--build-id=sha1

As a very very simple workaround, can you add the file sizes (as well
as the mtimes) to the staleness check? I mean, its possible that a
rebuild generates the exact same size, but at least its better than
always being wrong.

Also, valentin david (of the freedesktop sdk project) started working
on a solution based on build-ids:
  https://gitlab.com/freedesktop-sdk/freedesktop-sdk/merge_requests/487/diffs

This currently relies on the freedesktop sdk having build-ids, but it
would be easy for it to fall back on the mtime if that was not found.
Also, this code is not really tested yet, but you still get the idea
from looking at it, and it should work.


I've sent a new series [1] to use build-id by default and fallback to timestamp. If timestamp is zero we will disable the cache. On RADV a zero timestamp would mean the driver would fail to initialise, but it seem Intels ANV currently already does this if no build id is found so its still being pretty forgiving.
