WG14 has elected to remove support for K&R C functions in C2x. The
feature was introduced into C89 already deprecated, so after this long
of a deprecation period, the committee has made an empty parameter list
mean the same thing in C as it means in C++: the function accepts no
arguments exactly as if the function were written with (void) as the
parameter list.
This patch implements WG14 N2841 No function declarators without
prototypes (http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n2841.htm)
and WG14 N2432 Remove support for function definitions with identifier
lists (http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n2432.pdf).
It also adds The -fno-knr-functions command line option to opt into
this behavior in other language modes.

Functions without prototypes in C (also known as K&R C functions) were
introduced into C89 as a deprecated feature and C2x is now reclaiming
that syntax space with different semantics. However, Clang's
-Wstrict-prototypes diagnostic is off-by-default (even in pedantic
mode) and does not suffice to warn users about issues in their code.
This patch changes the behavior of -Wstrict-prototypes to only diagnose
declarations and definitions which are not going to change behavior in
C2x mode, and enables the diagnostic in -pedantic mode. The diagnostic
is now specifically about the fact that the feature is deprecated.
It also adds -Wdeprecated-non-prototype, which is grouped under
-Wstrict-prototypes and diagnoses declarations or definitions which
will change behavior in C2x mode. This diagnostic is enabled by default
because the risk is higher for the user to continue to use the
deprecated feature.

A significant number of our tests in C accidentally use functions
without prototypes. This patch converts the function signatures to have
a prototype for the situations where the test is not specific to K&R C
declarations. e.g.,
void func();
becomes
void func(void);
This adds support for multiple attributes in `#pragma clang attribute push`, for example:
```
```
or
```
```
Related attributes can now be applied with a single pragma, which makes it harder for developers to make an accidental error later when editing the code.

GCC supports:
- `namespace <gnu attributes> identifier`
- `namespace identifier <gnu attributes>`
But clang supports only `namespace identifier <gnu attributes>` and diagnostics for `namespace <gnu attributes> identifier` case looks unclear:
Code:
```
namespace __attribute__((visibility("hidden"))) A
{
}
```
Diags:
```
test.cpp:1:49: error: expected identifier or '{'
namespace __attribute__((visibility("hidden"))) A
^
test.cpp:1:49: error: C++ requires a type specifier for all declarations
test.cpp:3:2: error: expected ';' after top level declarator
}
```
This patch adds support for `namespace <gnu attributes> identifier` and also forbids gnu attributes for nested namespaces (this already done for C++ attributes).

This patch solves this problem with call site attribute. The implementation is "smaller" wrt approach which uses new intrinsics and thanks to https://reviews.llvm.org/D79121 (Add nomerge statement attribute to clang), we have got some basic infrastructure to deal with attrs on statements with call expressions.
GCC devs are more inclined to call attribute solution as well, as builtins are problematic for them - https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=104187. But they have no patch proposal yet so.. We have free hands here.
If this approach makes sense, next future steps would be support for call site attributes for always_inline / flatten.

This patch adds -Wno-strict-prototypes to all of the test cases that
use functions without prototypes, but not as the primary concern of the
test. e.g., attributes testing whether they can/cannot be applied to a
function without a prototype, etc.
This is done in preparation for enabling -Wstrict-prototypes by
default.
A significant number of our tests in C accidentally use functions
without prototypes. This patch converts the function signatures to have
a prototype for the situations where the test is not specific to K&R C
declarations. e.g.,
void func();
becomes
void func(void);
This is the fifth batch of tests being updated (there are a significant
number of other tests left to be updated).
Note, the behavior of -ast-print is broken. It prints functions with a
prototype (void) as if they have no prototype () in C. Some tests need
to disable strict prototype checking when recompiling the results of an
-ast-print invocation.
These changes make the Clang parser recognize expression parameter pack
expansion and initializer lists in attribute arguments. Because
expression parameter pack expansion requires additional handling while
creating and instantiating templates, the support for them must be
explicitly supported through the AcceptsExprPack flag.
Handling expression pack expansions may require a delay to when the
arguments of an attribute are correctly populated. To this end,
attributes that are set to accept these - through setting the
AcceptsExprPack flag - will automatically have an additional variadic
expression argument member named DelayedArgs. This member is not
exposed the same way other arguments are but is set through the new
CreateWithDelayedArgs creator function generated for applicable
attributes.
To illustrate how to implement support for expression pack expansion
support, clang::annotate is made to support pack expansions. This is
done by making handleAnnotationAttr delay setting the actual attribute
arguments until after template instantiation if it was unable to
populate the arguments due to dependencies in the parsed expressions.
Implement P2128R6 in C++23 mode.
Unlike GCC's implementation, this doesn't try to recover when a user
meant to use a comma expression.
Because the syntax changes meaning in C++23, the patch is *NOT*
implemented as an extension. Instead, declaring an array with not
exactly 1 parameter is an error in older languages modes. There is an
off-by-default extension warning in C++23 mode.
Unlike the standard, we supports default arguments;
Ie, we assume, based on conversations in WG21, that the proposed
resolution to CWG2507 will be accepted.
We allow arrays OpenMP sections and C++23 multidimensional array to
coexist:
[a , b] multi dimensional array
[a : b] open mp section
[a, b: c] // error
The rest of the patch is relatively straight forward: we take care to
support an arbitrary number of arguments everywhere.

The parsing code for a typename requirement currently asserts when
given something which is not a valid type-requirement
(http://eel.is/c++draft/expr.prim.req.type#nt:type-requirement). This
removes the assertion to continue on to the proper diagnostic.
This resolves PR53057.
Note that in that PR, it is using _BitInt(N) as a dependent type name.
This patch does not attempt to support that as it is not clear that is
a valid type requirement (it does not match the grammar production for
one). The workaround in the PR, however, is definitely valid and works
as expected.
This allows the body to be parsed.
An special-case that would replace a missing if condition with OpaqueValueExpr
was removed as it's now redundant (unless recovery-expr is disabled).
For loops are not handled at this point, as the parsing is more complicated.

When parsing the following construct, we parse it as an erroneous
deduction guide declaration and correctly diagnose the issues with it.
template<class> struct B;
struct A { B() noexcept(false); };
However, we then go on to finish late parsing the declaration and this
expects that what we've parsed is a CXXMethodDecl. A
CXXDeductionGuideDecl is not a CXXMethodDecl (it's a FunctionDecl), and
so we assert on the cast.
This fixes the crash by switching from cast<> to dyn_cast<> and not
setting up a "this" scope when the declaration is not a CXXMethodDecl.
This fixes PR49735.
WG14 adopted the _ExtInt feature from Clang for C23, but renamed the
type to be _BitInt. This patch does the vast majority of the work to
rename _ExtInt to _BitInt, which accounts for most of its size. The new
type is exposed in older C modes and all C++ modes as a conforming
extension. However, there are functional changes worth calling out:
* Deprecates _ExtInt with a fix-it to help users migrate to _BitInt.
* Updates the mangling for the type.
* Updates the documentation and adds a release note to warn users what
is going on.
* Adds new diagnostics for use of _BitInt to call out when it's used as
a Clang extension or as a pre-C23 compatibility concern.
* Adds new tests for the new diagnostic behaviors.
I want to call out the ABI break specifically. We do not believe that
this break will cause a significant imposition for early adopters of
the feature, and so this is being done as a full break. If it turns out
there are critical uses where recompilation is not an option for some
reason, we can consider using ABI tags to ease the transition.
There was some confusion during the discussion of a patch as to whether
`any` can be used to blast an attribute with no subject list onto
basically everything in a program by not specifying a subrule. This
patch adds documentation and tests to make it clear that this situation
is not supported and will be diagnosed.
Based on post-commit review discussion on
2bd8493847 with Richard Smith.
Other uses of forcing HasEmptyPlaceHolder to false seem OK to me -
they're all around pointer/reference types where the pointer/reference
token will appear at the rightmost side of the left side of the type
name, so they make nested types (eg: the "int" in "int *") behave as
though there is a non-empty placeholder (because the "*" is essentially
the placeholder as far as the "int" is concerned).
This was originally committed in 277623f4d5
Reverted in f9ad1d1c77 due to breakages
outside of clang - lldb seems to have some strange/strong dependence on
"char [N]" versus "char[N]" when printing strings (not due to that name
appearing in DWARF, but probably due to using clang to stringify type
names) that'll need to be addressed, plus a few other odds and ends in
other subprojects (clang-tools-extra, compiler-rt, etc).
The clang behavior was poor before this patch:
```
void B::foo() override {}
// Before: clang emited "expcted function body after function
// declarator", and skiped all contents until it hits a ";", the
// following function f() is discarded.
// VS
// Now "override is not allowed" with a remove fixit, and following f()
// is retained.
void f();
```
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D111883
Looks like lldb has some issues with this - somehow it causes lldb to
treat a "char[N]" type as an array of chars (prints them out
individually) but a "char [N]" is printed as a string. (even though the
DWARF doesn't have this string in it - it's something to do with the
string lldb generates for itself using clang)

Currently, we prohibit this pragma from appearing within a language

This patch allows you to use the pragma within an extern "C" {} (etc)

Word on the grapevine was that the committee had some discussion that

We wanted to be bold and just ban all of them cold turkey.
But then we chickened out at the last second and are going for
eliminating just the spaceship overload candidate instead, for now.
See D104680 for reference.
This should be fine and "safe", because the only possible semantic change this
would cause is that overload resolution could possibly be ambiguous if
there was another viable candidate equally as good.
But to save face a little we are going to:
* Issue an "error" for three-way comparisons on function pointers.
But all this is doing really is changing one vague error message,
from an "invalid operands to binary expression" into an
"ordered comparison of function pointers", which sounds more like we mean business.
* Otherwise "warn" that comparing function pointers like that is totally
not cool (unless we are told to keep quiet about this).
