+``` +mcpp build (touch 一个文件): +├── mcpp 前端 (~10s) +│ ├── toolchain resolve (xlings interface 子进程) +│ ├── manifest parse + dep fetch +│ ├── regex scanner (扫描所有 .cppm 文件) +│ ├── modgraph validate +│

+**根因**:所有编译边依赖同一个 `build.ninja.dd` 文件。 + +``` +cli.cppm 被 touch + ↓ +cli.cppm.ddi (scan) 重新生成 + ↓ +build.ninja.dd 依赖 ALL 39 个 .ddi → build.ninja.dd 被重新生成 + ↓ +所有 39 个 compile edge 都有 `| build.ninja.dd` 作为 implicit dep + ↓ +全部 39 个模块标记为 dirty → 全量重编译 +``` + +**理想行为**:只有 `cli.cppm` 和直接依赖 `mcpp.cli` 模块的文件需要重编译。 + +**ninja 的 dyndep 机制本身支持 per-file dyndep**,当前实现选择了最简单的全局方案。 + +### 2.2 问题二:mcpp 前端每次全量重算 + +即使没有任何文件改动,mcpp 仍然花 ~10s 做: +- 启动 xlings 子进程解析工具链 +- 扫描所有源文件的 module 声明 +- 生成 BuildPlan +- 重新写入 build.ninja + +这些步骤的结果在大多数增量编译场景下都不变。 + +## 3. 优化策略 + +### 3.1 策略一:per-file dyndep(影响最大) + +**目标**:改一个文件只重编译该文件及其下游依赖。 + +**方案**:将全局 `build.ninja.dd` 拆分为 per-file dyndep。 + +```ninja +# 当前(全局 dyndep): +build build.ninja.dd : cxx_collect obj/cli.cppm.ddi obj/ui.cppm.ddi ... +build obj/cli.m.o | gcm.cache/mcpp.cli.gcm : cxx_module src/cli.cppm | build.ninja.dd + dyndep = build.ninja.dd + +# 优化后(per-file dyndep): +build obj/cli.cppm.dd : cxx_dyndep obj/cli.cppm.ddi + restat = 1 +build obj/cli.m.o | gcm.cache/mcpp.cli.gcm : cxx_module src/cli.cppm | obj/cli.cppm.dd + dyndep = obj/cli.cppm.dd +``` + +**效果**:touch `ui.cppm` 时,只有 `ui.cppm.ddi` → `ui.cppm.dd` 变化,只有 `ui.m.o` 和依赖 `mcpp.ui` 的下游文件需要重编译。 + +**实现复杂度**:中等。需要修改 `ninja_backend.cppm` 的 emit 逻辑和 `dyndep.cppm` 的生成方式。 + +### 3.2 策略二:BMI restat + copy_if_different(减少级联重编译) + +**目标**:当模块接口不变时(只改了实现),阻止级联重编译。 + +**方案**(业界标准做法,CMake 采用): +1. 编译器输出 BMI 到临时文件 +2. 比较临时文件与当前 BMI 内容 +3. 内容不同才覆盖(保持旧时间戳) +4. ninja `restat = 1` 检测到 BMI 未变,跳过下游 + +```ninja +rule cxx_module + command = $cxx $cxxflags -c $in -o $out.tmp && \ + (cmp -s $bmi_out.tmp $bmi_out && rm $bmi_out.tmp || mv $bmi_out.tmp $bmi_out) && \ + mv $out.tmp $out + restat = 1 +``` + +**效果**:修改 `ui.cppm` 的函数体但不改接口 → BMI 不变 → 依赖 `mcpp.ui` 的下游不重编译。 + +**GCC 注意**:GCC 每次都会重新生成 BMI 文件(即使内容相同时间戳也变),所以必须在构建系统层面做 copy_if_different。 + +### 3.3 策略三:mcpp 前端缓存(减少 10s 前端开销) + +**目标**:无改动时 mcpp 应在 <1s 内完成。 + +**方案**: + +1. **快速脏检查**:在调用 scanner/make_plan 之前,检查 `build.ninja` 是否比所有源文件更新。如果是,直接跳到 ninja 执行。 + +2. **增量 scanner**:缓存上一次的扫描结果(module graph),只重新扫描修改过的文件。 + +3. **工具链缓存**:toolchain resolve 结果缓存到 `.mcpp/cache/toolchain.json`,避免每次启动 xlings 子进程。 + +**效果**:无改动 → ~0.1s(直接 ninja no-op),改一个文件 → ~1s(增量 scan + ninja)。 + +### 3.4 策略四:Clang 两阶段编译(未来多工具链支持) + +**当前**:GCC 一次生成 BMI + .o,串行依赖。 + +**Clang 支持两阶段**: +``` +Phase 1: clang --precompile A.cppm -o A.pcm (生成 BMI) +Phase 2: clang -c A.pcm -o A.o (BMI → .o) +``` + +**好处**:A 的 BMI 就绪后,B 可以开始编译 BMI,同时 A 继续编译 .o。并行度更高。 + +**Clang 还支持 Reduced BMI**(`-fmodules-reduced-bmi`):BMI 只包含接口信息,不包含实现细节,更小、更少级联。 + +## 4. 架构设计建议 + +### 4.1 构建后端抽象层 + +当前 `Backend` 接口已经有抽象,但实际只有 NinjaBackend。建议扩展: + +``` +Backend (abstract) +├── NinjaBackend (当前,GCC + Ninja) +├── NinjaClangBackend (未来,Clang + Ninja,两阶段编译) +├──

win 是: + +1. **前端脏检查**(P0)— 即刻将无改动场景从 10s 降到 <0.5s +2. **per-file dyndep**(P1)— 将单文件修改场景从 21s 降到 ~3s + +这两个优化不影响正确性,不需要改变架构,可以增量实施。 diff --git a/src/build/backend.cppm b/src/build/backend.cppm index
