This looks like a nice improvement.

These tests are nice.

But we're changing Sema in this patch, I think we'd better to have these in clang, /test/CodeCompletion/call.cpp seems to be the place.

possible.

I'm a bit nervous to show all overloads regardlessly, I think we could do some smarter things like

  1. if there are some prefix non-type-dependent arguments, we could use these type information to filter out some unrelated candidates;
  2. different overloads may have different number of parameters, this is an important signal, e.g. foo(t, ^t) should not give void foo(int) result;

2 seems quite critical and trivial to implement, maybe we can do it in this patch.

  • Add tests into clang-lit
  • Make sure current number of args is less than overloads param count.

well actually now that I think about it, this is actually not that hard. possibly even easier than current version. changing the logic surface every candidate using the prefix, and do a post-filtering instead of trying to mock all the results.

  • Change logic to find all signatures without any dependent args and post filter non-viable overloads using the argument counts.

thanks, looks better.

nit: use early return.

if (!Candidate.Function) {
  continue;
}

i wanted to do that, but it changes the semantics. as push_back below executes even when Candidate.Function is nullptr :/
