Correctly handle line table entries without filenames during AST serialization
ClosedPublic

Details

Summary

The current code would hit an assert in ASTWriter when trying to write out the filename for a line table entry that didn't have any.

(Chromium runs into this when building with the latest MS SDK.)

The intent is to use a FilenameID of -1 to represent this situation; see the documentation of the LineEntry::FilenameID member. Users of that field are expected to deal with that value (see the handling of that case in SourceManager::getPresumedLoc for example). I think we need to handle it that way, rather than mapping to the main file name as this patch does, for correctness in the PCH case -- we don't actually *know* the correct main file name at the point where the line directive appears.

I imagine the cause of the crash is that the AST writer blindly calls LineTableInfo::getFilename(LE.FilenameID) without checking for this case?

Yes, exactly.

I suppose the right thing to do is to just make the -1 values survive serialization, and the correct filename can be figured out when the deserialized pch gets used? Patch coming up.

Can we still have it in 5.0?
