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.

With this extension, friend function declarations will retain the language
linkage specified for previous declarations instead of emitting an error
diagnostic.
The feature is known to be compatible with GCC and MSVC and permits a
language to be specified indirectly where it cannot otherwise be written
directly in class scope.
Work is ongoing to improve linkage spec diagnostics.

standard's rule that an extern "C" declaration conflicts with any entity in the
global scope with the same name. Now we only care if the global scope entity is
a variable declaration (and so might have the same mangled name as the extern
"C" declaration). This has been reported as a standard defect.
Original commit message:
PR7927, PR16247: Reimplement handling of matching extern "C" declarations
across scopes.
When we declare an extern "C" name that is not a redeclaration of an entity in
the same scope, check whether it redeclares some extern "C" entity from another
scope, and if not, check whether it conflicts with a (non-extern-"C") entity in
the translation unit.
When we declare a name in the translation unit that is not a redeclaration,
check whether it conflicts with any extern "C" entities (possibly from other
scopes).

We already avoided warning for
extern "C" const char *Version_string = "2.9";
now we also don't produce any warnings for
extern "C" {
extern const char *Version_string2 = "2.9";
}

- This is designed to make it obvious that %clang_cc1 is a "test variable"
which is substituted. It is '%clang_cc1' instead of '%clang -cc1' because it
can be useful to redefine what gets run as 'clang -cc1' (for example, to set
a default target).

enclosing non-transparent contexts further up the stack. Fixes PR5479.
