This commit tweaks the interface of `CheckerRegistry::addChecker` to
make it more practical for plugins and tests:
- The parameter `IsHidden` now defaults to `false` even in the
non-templated overload (because setting it to true is unusual,
especially in plugins).
- The parameter `DocsUri` defaults to the dummy placeholder string
`"NoDocsUri"` because (as of now) nothing queries its value from the
checker registry (it's only used by the logic that generates the
clang-tidy documentation, but that loads it directly from `Checkers.td`
without involving the `CheckerRegistry`), so there is no reason to
demand specifying this value.
In addition to propagating these changes, this commit clarifies,
corrects and extends lots of comments and performs various minor code
quality improvements in the code of unit tests and example plugins.
I originally wrote the bulk of this commit when I was planning to add an
extra parameter to `addChecker` in order to implement some technical
details of the CheckerFamily framework. At the end I decided against
adding that extra parameter, so this cleanup was left out of the PR
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/139256 and I'm merging it now
as a separate commit (after minor tweaks).
This commit is mostly NFC: the only functional change is that the
analyzer will be compatible with plugins that rely on the default
argument values and don't specify `IsHidden` or `DocsUri`. (But existing
plugin code will remain valid as well.)
This commit deletes the "simple" constructor of `CallDescription` which
did not require a `CallDescription::Mode` argument and always used the
"wildcard" mode `CDM::Unspecified`.
A few months ago, this vague matching mode was used by many checkers,
which caused bugs like https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/81597
and https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/88181. Since then, my
commits improved the available matching modes and ensured that all
checkers explicitly specify the right matching mode.
After those commits, the only remaining references to the "simple"
constructor were some unit tests; this commit updates them to use an
explicitly specified matching mode (often `CDM::SimpleFunc`).
The mode `CDM::Unspecified` was not deleted in this commit because it's
still a reasonable choice in `GenericTaintChecker` and a few unit tests.
Cleanup most of the lazy-init `BugType` legacy.
Some will be preserved, as those are slightly more complicated to
refactor.
Notice, that the default category for `BugType` is `LogicError`. I
omitted setting this explicitly where I could.
Please, actually have a look at the diff. I did this manually, and we
rarely check the bug type descriptions and stuff in tests, so the
testing might be shallow on this one.
This avoids recomputing string length that is already known at compile time.
It has a slight impact on preprocessing / compile time, see

This a recommit of e953ae5bbc313fd0cc980ce021d487e5b5199ea4 and the subsequent fixes caa713559bd38f337d7d35de35686775e8fb5175 and 06b90e2e9c991e211fecc97948e533320a825470.
The above patchset caused some version of GCC to take eons to compile clang/lib/Basic/Targets/AArch64.cpp, as spotted in aa171833ab0017d9732e82b8682c9848ab25ff9e.
The fix is to make BuiltinInfo tables a compilation unit static variable, instead of a private static variable.

This patch replaces each use of the previous API with the new one.
In variadic cases, it will use the ADL `matchesAny(Call, CDs...)`
variadic function.
Also simplifies some code involving such operations.

`CallDescriptions` deserve its own translation unit.
This patch simply moves the corresponding parts.
Also includes the `CallDescription.h` where it's necessary.

D105553 added NoStateChangeFuncVisitor, an abstract class to aid in creating
notes such as "Returning without writing to 'x'", or "Returning without changing
the ownership status of allocated memory". Its clients need to define, among
other things, what a change of state is.
For code like this:
f() {
g();
}
foo() {
f();
h();
}
We'd have a path in the ExplodedGraph that looks like this:
-- <g> -->
/ \
--- <f> --------> --- <h> --->
/ \ / \
-------- <foo> ------ <foo> -->
When we're interested in whether f neglected to change some property,
NoStateChangeFuncVisitor asks these questions:
÷×~
-- <g> -->
ß / \$ @&#*
--- <f> --------> --- <h> --->
/ \ / \
-------- <foo> ------ <foo> -->
Has anything changed in between # and *?
Has anything changed in between & and *?
Has anything changed in between @ and *?
...
Has anything changed in between $ and *?
Has anything changed in between × and ~?
Has anything changed in between ÷ and ~?
...
Has anything changed in between ß and *?
...
This is a rather thorough line of questioning, which is why in D105819, I was
only interested in whether state *right before* and *right after* a function
call changed, and early returned to the CallEnter location:
if (!CurrN->getLocationAs<CallEnter>())
return;
Except that I made a typo, and forgot to negate the condition. So, in this
patch, I'm fixing that, and under the same hood allow all clients to decide to
do this whole-function check instead of the thorough one.
