If a template argument in a partial specialization of a variable
template directly refers to a NTTP of the specialization without
implicit type conversion it was assumed that the NTTP is identical to
that of the primary template.
This doesn't hold if the primary template's NTTP uses a deduced type, so
instead compare the types explicitly as well.
The affected function is used only to provide an improved early error if
the partial specialization has identical template arguments to the
primary template. The actual check that the partial specialization is
more specialized happens later.

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 is a first pass at implementing
[P2841R7](https://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2025/p2841r7.pdf).
The implementation is far from complete; however, I'm aiming to do that
in chunks, to make our lives easier.
In particular, this does not implement
- Subsumption
- Mangling
- Satisfaction checking is minimal as we should focus on #141776 first
(note that I'm currently very stuck)
FTM, release notes, status page, etc, will be updated once the feature
is more mature. Given the state of the feature, it is not yet allowed in
older language modes.
Of note:
- Mismatches between template template arguments and template template
parameters are a bit wonky. This is addressed by #130603
- We use `UnresolvedLookupExpr` to model template-id. While this is
pre-existing, I have been wondering if we want to introduce a different
OverloadExpr subclass for that. I did not make the change in this patch.
We allowed implicit this access when checking associated constraints
after CWG2369. As a result, some of the invalid function call
expressions were not properly SFINAE'ed out and ended up as hard errors
at evaluation time.
We tried fixing that by mucking around the CurContext, but that spawned
additional breakages and I think it's probably safe to revert to the
previous behavior to avoid churns.
Though there is CWG2589, which justifies the previous change, it's not
what we're pursuing now.

ArrayRef now has a new constructor that takes a parameter whose type
has data() and size(). This patch migrates:
ArrayRef<T>(X.data(), X.size()
to:
ArrayRef<T>(X)
CWG2369 revealed another case where we were SFINAE'ing out the invalid
result of substitution, but the expression now makes the way into evaluation.
We switch to the concept specialization's context before we check it.
This ensures that we're able to realize the invalid expression earlier,
so we can avoid evaluating invalid expression, which is a hard error.
This also fixes#115838

This introduces a way detect the libstdc++ version,
use that to enable workarounds.
The version is cached.
This should make it easier in the future to find and remove
these hacks.
I did not find the need for enabling a hack between or after
specific versions, so it's left as a future exercise.
We can extend this fature to other libraries as the need arise.

There are several type traits that produce a boolean value or type based
on the well-formedness of some expression (more precisely, the immediate
context, i.e. for example excluding nested template instantiation):
* `__is_constructible` and variants,
* `__is_convertible` and variants,
* `__is_assignable` and variants,
* `__reference_{binds_to,{constructs,converts}_from}_temporary`,
* `__is_trivially_equality_comparable`,
* `__builtin_common_type`.
(It should be noted that the standard doesn't always base this on the
immediate context being well-formed: for `std::common_type` it's based
on whether some expression "denotes a valid type." But I assume that's
an editorial issue and means the same thing.)
Errors in the immediate context are suppressed, instead the type traits
return another value or produce a different type if the expression is
not well-formed. This is achieved using an `SFINAETrap` with
`AccessCheckingSFINAE` set to true. If the type trait is used outside of
an SFINAE context, errors are discarded because in that case the
`SFINAETrap` sets `InNonInstantiationSFINAEContext`, which makes
`isSFINAEContext` return an `optional(nullptr)`, which causes the errors
to be discarded in `EmitDiagnostic`. However, in an SFINAE context this
doesn't happen, and errors are added to `SuppressedDiagnostics` in the
`TemplateDeductionInfo` returned by `isSFINAEContext`. Once we're done
with deducing template arguments and have decided which template is
going to be instantiated, the errors corresponding to the chosen
template are then emitted. At this point we get errors from those type
traits that we wouldn't have seen if used with the same arguments
outside of an SFINAE context. That doesn't seem right.
So what we want to do is always set `InNonInstantiationSFINAEContext`
when evaluating these well-formed-testing type traits, regardless of
whether we're in an SFINAE context or not. This should only affect the
immediate context, as nested contexts add a new `CodeSynthesisContext`
that resets `InNonInstantiationSFINAEContext` for the time it's active.
Going through uses of `SFINAETrap` with `AccessCheckingSFINAE` = `true`,
it occurred to me that all of them want this behavior and we can just
use this parameter to decide whether to use a non-instantiation context.
The uses are precisely the type traits mentioned above plus the
`TentativeAnalysisScope`, where I think it is also fine. (Though I think
we don't do tentative analysis in SFINAE contexts anyway.)
Because the parameter no longer just sets `AccessCheckingSFINAE` in Sema
but also `InNonInstantiationSFINAEContext`, I think it should be renamed
(along with uses, which also point the reviewer to the affected places).
Since we're testing for validity of some expression, `ForValidityCheck`
seems to be a good name.
The added tests should more or less correspond to the users of
`SFINAETrap` with `AccessCheckingSFINAE` = `true`. I added a test for
errors outside of the immediate context for only one type trait, because
it requires some setup and is relatively noisy.
We put the `ForValidityCheck` condition first because it's constant in
all uses and this would then allow the compiler to prune the call to
`isSFINAEContext` when true.

Since 346077aa, we began using the primary template's lexical
DeclContext for template arguments in order to properly instantiate a
friend definition.
There is a missed peculiar case, as in a friend template is specialized
within a dependent context. In this scenario, the primary template is
not a definition, whereas the specialization is. So the primary
template's DeclContext doesn't provide anything meaningful
for instantiation.

For a member function call like 'foo.bar<int>()', there are two
typo-correction points after parsing the dot. The first occurs in
ParseOptionalCXXScopeSpecifier, which tries to annotate the template
name following any scope specifiers.
If the template name bar is not found within 'foo', the parser was
previously instructed to drop any function templates found outside of
the scope. This was intended to prevent ambiguity in expressions like
'foo->bar < 7', as explained in commit 50a3cddd. However, it's
unnecessary to discard typo-corrected results that were strictly
resolved within the scope 'foo'.
We won't perform a second typo-correction in ParseUnqualifiedId after
the name being annotated.

A bunch of uses of IsFunctionConversion don't use the third argument and
just make a dummy QualType to pass. This splits IsFunctionConversion
into 2 functions, one that just takes 2 arguments and does the check,
and one that does the actual conversion using the 3rd argument. Both
functions can be const and replace current uses appropriately.
There are a few diagnostics that are incorrectly grouped under
`-Wc++20-compat` instead of `-Wpre-c++20-compat`.
I grepped for any remaining `-Wc++xy-compat` diagnostics, but they all
seem to actually be about compatibility with C++XY.
Fixes#138775.
This patch adds templated `operator<<` for diagnostics that pass scoped
enums, saving people from `llvm::to_underlying()` clutter on the side of
emitting the diagnostic. This eliminates 80 out of 220 usages of
`llvm::to_underlying()` in Clang.
I also backported `std::is_scoped_enum_v` from C++23.
This patch extends the canonicalization printing policy to cover
expressions
and template names, and wires that up to the template argument printer,
covering expressions, and to the expression within a dependent decltype.
This is helpful for debugging, or if these expressions somehow end up
in diagnostics, as without this patch they can print as completely
unrelated
expressions, which can be quite confusing.
This is because expressions are not uniqued, unlike types, and
when a template specialization containing an expression is the first to
be
canonicalized, the expression ends up appearing in the canonical type of
subsequent equivalent specializations.

This introduces a new class 'UnsignedOrNone', which models a lite
version of `std::optional<unsigned>`, but has the same size as
'unsigned'.
This replaces most uses of `std::optional<unsigned>`, and similar
schemes utilizing 'int' and '-1' as sentinel.
Besides the smaller size advantage, this is simpler to serialize, as its
internal representation is a single unsigned int as well.
This is a follow-up to #132129.
Currently, only `Parser` and `SemaBase` get a `DiagCompat()` helper; I’m
planning to keep refactoring compatibility warnings and add more helpers
to other classes as needed. I also refactored a single parser compat
warning just to make sure everything works properly when diagnostics
across multiple components (i.e. Sema and Parser in this case) are
involved.
This reverts an earlier attempt
(adb0d8ddceb143749c519d14b8b31b481071da77 and
50e5411e4247421fd606f0a206682fcdf0303ae3) to support these expansions,
which was limited to type arguments and which subverted the purpose
of SubstTemplateTypeParmType.
This propagates the ArgumentPackSubstitutionIndex along with the
AssociatedConstraint, so that the pack expansion works, without
needing any new transforms or otherwise any changes to the template
instantiation process.
This keeps the tests from the reverted commits, and adds a few more
showing the new solution also works for NTTPs.

Originally reverted due to revert of dependent commit. Relanding with no
changes.
This changes the MemberPointerType representation to use a
NestedNameSpecifier instead of a Type to represent the base class.
Since the qualifiers are always parsed as nested names, there was an
impedance mismatch when converting these back and forth into types, and
this led to issues in preserving sugar.
The nested names are indeed a better match for these, as the differences
which a QualType can represent cannot be expressed syntatically, and
they represent the use case more exactly, being either dependent or
referring to a CXXRecord, unqualified.
This patch also makes the MemberPointerType able to represent sugar for
a {up/downcast}cast conversion of the base class, although for now the
underlying type is canonical, as preserving the sugar up to that point
requires further work.
As usual, includes a few drive-by fixes in order to make use of the
improvements.
This introduces some tablegen helpers for defining compatibility
warnings. The main aim of this is to both simplify adding new
compatibility warnings as well as to unify the naming of compatibility
warnings.
I’ve refactored ~half of the compatiblity warnings (that follow the
usual scheme) in `DiagnosticSemaKinds.td` for illustration purposes and
also to simplify/unify the wording of some of them (I also corrected a
typo in one of them as a drive-by fix).
I haven’t (yet) migrated *all* warnings even in that one file, and there
are some more specialised ones for which the scheme I’ve established
here doesn’t work (e.g. because they’re warning+error instead of
warning+extwarn; however, warning+extension *is* supported), but the
point of this isn’t to implement *all* compatibility-related warnings
this way, only to make the common case a bit easier to handle.
This currently also only handles C++ compatibility warnings, but it
should be fairly straight-forward to extend the tablegen code so it can
also be used for C compatibility warnings (if this gets merged, I’m
planning to do that in a follow-up pr).
The vast majority of compatibility warnings are emitted by writing
```c++
Diag(Loc, getLangOpts().CPlusPlusYZ ? diag::ext_... : diag::warn_...)
```
in accordance with which I’ve chosen the following naming scheme:
```c++
Diag(Loc, getLangOpts().CPlusPlusYZ ? diag::compat_cxxyz_foo : diag::compat_pre_cxxyz_foo)
```
That is, for a warning about a C++20 feature—i.e. C++≤17
compatibility—we get:
```c++
Diag(Loc, getLangOpts().CPlusPlus20 ? diag::compat_cxx20_foo : diag::compat_pre_cxx20_foo)
```
While there is an argument to be made against writing ‘`compat_cxx20`’
here since is technically a case of ‘C++17 compatibility’ and not ‘C++20
compatibility’, I at least find this easier to reason about, because I
can just write the same number 3 times instead of having to use
`ext_cxx20_foo` but `warn_cxx17_foo`. Instead, I like to read this as a
warning about the ‘compatibility *of* a C++20 feature’ rather than
‘*with* C++17’.
I also experimented with moving all compatibility warnings to a separate
file, but 1. I don’t think it’s worth the effort, and 2. I think it
hurts compile times a bit because at least in my testing I felt that I
had to recompile more code than if we just keep e.g. Sema-specific
compat warnings in the Sema diagnostics file.
Instead, I’ve opted to put them all in the same place within any one
file; currently this is a the very top but I don’t really have strong
opinions about this.

Seemingly I managed to not give this a name, and not notice that it
didn't properly introduce the scope it was supposed to! This patch
gives it a name which should hopefully/presumably fix any cases where we
don't properly introduce the 'this' scope. I presume that previous
callers to this might also do this in most cases so that this is a
redundant scope, but we have to make sure it happens.
