This is a major change on how we represent nested name qualifications in
the AST.
* The nested name specifier itself and how it's stored is changed. The
prefixes for types are handled within the type hierarchy, which makes
canonicalization for them super cheap, no memory allocation required.
Also translating a type into nested name specifier form becomes a no-op.
An identifier is stored as a DependentNameType. The nested name
specifier gains a lightweight handle class, to be used instead of
passing around pointers, which is similar to what is implemented for
TemplateName. There is still one free bit available, and this handle can
be used within a PointerUnion and PointerIntPair, which should keep
bit-packing aficionados happy.
* The ElaboratedType node is removed, all type nodes in which it could
previously apply to can now store the elaborated keyword and name
qualifier, tail allocating when present.
* TagTypes can now point to the exact declaration found when producing
these, as opposed to the previous situation of there only existing one
TagType per entity. This increases the amount of type sugar retained,
and can have several applications, for example in tracking module
ownership, and other tools which care about source file origins, such as
IWYU. These TagTypes are lazily allocated, in order to limit the
increase in AST size.
This patch offers a great performance benefit.
It greatly improves compilation time for
[stdexec](https://github.com/NVIDIA/stdexec). For one datapoint, for
`test_on2.cpp` in that project, which is the slowest compiling test,
this patch improves `-c` compilation time by about 7.2%, with the
`-fsyntax-only` improvement being at ~12%.
This has great results on compile-time-tracker as well:
This patch also further enables other optimziations in the future, and
will reduce the performance impact of template specialization resugaring
when that lands.
It has some other miscelaneous drive-by fixes.
About the review: Yes the patch is huge, sorry about that. Part of the
reason is that I started by the nested name specifier part, before the
ElaboratedType part, but that had a huge performance downside, as
ElaboratedType is a big performance hog. I didn't have the steam to go
back and change the patch after the fact.
There is also a lot of internal API changes, and it made sense to remove
ElaboratedType in one go, versus removing it from one type at a time, as
that would present much more churn to the users. Also, the nested name
specifier having a different API avoids missing changes related to how
prefixes work now, which could make existing code compile but not work.
How to review: The important changes are all in
`clang/include/clang/AST` and `clang/lib/AST`, with also important
changes in `clang/lib/Sema/TreeTransform.h`.
The rest and bulk of the changes are mostly consequences of the changes
in API.
PS: TagType::getDecl is renamed to `getOriginalDecl` in this patch, just
for easier to rebasing. I plan to rename it back after this lands.

This offloads some test changes from another PR in order to facilitate
review.
- Adds some new tests.
- Cleans stray spaces and newlines on existing tests.
- Regenerates some AST json dumps, as the generator now includes
offsets.
This is a rework of patch [D10833](https://reviews.llvm.org/D10833)
previously posted on LLVM Phabricator by arthurp in 2015. It allows to
retrieve the type of binary operator via libclangs python bindings.
I did clean up the changes, removed unrelated changes and rebased the
changeset to the latest main branch. As this is my first contribution to
the LLVM project, let me know if any required tests or documentation are
missing.
The -mmacos-version-min flag is preferred over -mmacosx-version-min.
This patch updates the tests and documentation to make this clear and
also adds the missing logic to scan build to handle the new flag.
Fixes#86376.

We have a new policy in place making links to private resources
something we try to avoid in source and test files. Normally, we'd
organically switch to the new policy rather than make a sweeping change
across a project. However, Clang is in a somewhat special circumstance
currently: recently, I've had several new contributors run into rdar
links around test code which their patch was changing the behavior of.
This turns out to be a surprisingly bad experience, especially for
newer folks, for a handful of reasons: not understanding what the link
is and feeling intimidated by it, wondering whether their changes are
actually breaking something important to a downstream in some way,
having to hunt down strangers not involved with the patch to impose on
them for help, accidental pressure from asking for potentially private
IP to be made public, etc. Because folks run into these links entirely
by chance (through fixing bugs or working on new features), there's not
really a set of problematic links to focus on -- all of the links have
basically the same potential for causing these problems. As a result,
this is an omnibus patch to remove all such links.
This was not a mechanical change; it was done by manually searching for
rdar, radar, radr, and other variants to find all the various
problematic links. From there, I tried to retain or reword the
surrounding comments so that we would lose as little context as
possible. However, because most links were just a plain link with no
supporting context, the majority of the changes are simple removals.

The diagnostics engine is very smart about being passed a NamedDecl to
print as part of a diagnostic; it gets the "right" form of the name,
quotes it properly, etc. However, the result of using an unnamed tag
declaration was to print '' instead of anything useful.
This patch causes us to print the same information we'd have gotten if
we had printed the type of the declaration rather than the name of it,
as that's the most relevant information we can display.

This patch adds ObjectFilePCHContainerOperations uses the LLVM backend
to put the contents of a PCH into a __clangast section inside a COFF, ELF,
or Mach-O object file container.
This is done to facilitate module debugging by makeing it possible to
store the debug info for the types defined by a module alongside the AST.

This is a necessary prerequisite for debugging with modules.
The .pcm files become containers that hold the serialized AST which allows
us to store debug information in the module file that can be shared by all
object files that were built importing the module.
This reapplies r230044 with a fixed configure+make build and updated
dependencies and testcase requirements. Over the last iteration this
version adds
- missing target requirements for testcases that specify an x86 triple,
- a missing clangCodeGen.a dependency to libClang.a in the make build.

This fixes a subtle bug reported in <rdar://problem/12584554> where a double-nested
macro could lead to an incorrect fixit location with live issues.
This fix also uncovers a bunch of subtle bugs in our indexer test cases which
are now fixed (mostly around source ranges for attributes).

increasingly prevailing case to the point that new features
like ARC don't even support the fragile ABI anymore.
This required a little bit of reshuffling with exceptions
because a check was assuming that ObjCNonFragileABI was
only being set in ObjC mode, and that's actually a bit
obnoxious to do.
Most, though, it involved a perl script to translate a ton
of test cases.
Mostly no functionality change for driver users, although
there are corner cases with disabling language-specific
exceptions that we should handle more correctly now.

of this traversal rather than using the Index library; the unified
cursor visitor is more complete, and will be The Way Forward.
Minor other tweaks needed to make this work:
- Extend Preprocessor::getLocForEndOfToken() to accept an offset
from the end, making it easy to move to the last character in the
token (rather than just past the end of the token).
- In Lexer::MeasureTokenLength(), the length of whitespace is zero.
