- AGENTS.md: add cache system to STRUCTURE, WHERE TO LOOK, BUILD FLOW,
BUILD COMMANDS (--force-rebuild), and CONVENTIONS (dep_hashes.toml,
binary store restore, package_groups syntax)
- CHANGELOG.md: comprehensive entry for Phase 1-3 + kernel MWAIT +
ninja-build Redox support
- local/AGENTS.md: note installer fork adds package groups support
- BUILD-CACHE-PLAN.md: fix TOML syntax (underscores not hyphens),
update all phases to COMPLETE with implementation details, add cache
flow diagram, add verification results
Phase 1 — Hash-based cache invalidation:
- DepHashes struct: BLAKE3 hash of each build dep stored in dep_hashes.toml
- collect_current_dep_hashes(): reads blake3 from dep .toml metadata
- dep_hashes_changed(): compares stored vs current hashes
- Replaces mtime comparison as primary cache invalidation check
- Mtime fallback preserved for backward compatibility (no dep_hashes.toml)
- --force-rebuild CLI flag bypasses cache entirely
Phase 2 — Binary store cache lookup:
- repo_builder publishes dep_hashes.toml alongside .pkgar/.toml in repo/
- When target/ is missing but repo/ has the package, restores stage
artifacts by extracting pkgar, copying toml + dep_hashes.toml
- Auto-generates auto_deps.toml from repo depends field
- Only applies to non-remote, non-force-rebuild builds
See local/docs/BUILD-CACHE-PLAN.md for full architecture.
