Improvements on Diagnostic in Macro Expansions

[zhengkai]

Summary

Add two helper functions to check if the current macro expansion contains enough information for the error/warning message that we don't need further expansion.

Modify two test files which generates too verbose information in macros.

Add two test files. reduced-diags-macros is to check the different solutions when different error messages are generated. reduced-diags-macros-backtrace is to check the correctness of macro back trace limits in our new methods.

Some questions about your tests.

test/Misc/reduced-diags-macros-backtrace.cpp

28

Why are macro notes printed after this one? Clang found 'p' so it does not need to give any more information.

37

Same question, why are notes still printed after this one?

54–79

Did you mean "SKIP-NEXT"?

test/Misc/reduced-diags-macros.cpp

14–15

If this had one more macro expansion, would it be printed or not?

28–30

How is this different than the test for 'b' above? Specifically, why does the error for 'b' print no macros notes while the error for 'x' prints two notes?

Bug fixed

[rtrieu]

Which bug did you fix?

Also, are you planning to add more test cases? Something that impacts all macro printing should be well-tested.

The helper function checkRangesForMacroArgExpansion is to check if the current Loc and Ranges are expansions of a macro's arguments.
If so, the IgnoredEnd will record this position and thus omitting all later expanded macros (Later expanded macros are showed on top of the stack though).

Two test cases are added.
The reduced-diags-macros-backtrace.cpp is to show that my method works correctly with the option -fmacro-backtrace-limit
The reduced-diags-macros.cpp is to show that my method reduced verbose information printed indeed.

There are still a lot of other cases in which my method still works as the old version did.
And I think there are several bugs in the existing functions like "emitDiagnostic" and "mapDiagnosticRanges".
This is issued as a bug, the link is https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=24423.
Future work will be done to improve the current result.

Yes.
This works like the old version, should be improved later

The bug you linked to is a tracking bug for all macro improvements. File bugs on specific examples you encounter and link it to that bug.

This is a first step towards making macro diagnostics better.
