[PATCH] D72860: [modules] Do not cache invalid state for modules that we attempted to load.

[Volodymyr Sapsai via Phabricator via cfe-commits]

vsapsai marked an inline comment as done.
vsapsai added inline comments.


================
Comment at: clang/lib/Serialization/ModuleManager.cpp:183
       // Get a buffer of the file and close the file descriptor when done.
-      Buf = FileMgr.getBufferForFile(NewModule->File, /*isVolatile=*/false);
+      Buf = FileMgr.getBufferForFile(NewModule->File, /*isVolatile=*/true);
     }

Richard, can you please tell what is your modules configuration and how you are invoking clang? For implicit builds loading a module instead of `mmap` is still better than building a module. But for explicit modules I see there is no need to use `isVolatile` as modules aren't changing all the time.
