Subzero: Deal with substitutions in the primitive remangler. · 217dc082Jim Stichnoth authored
https://refspecs.linuxbase.org/cxxabi-1.75.html#mangling-compression describes the mechanism for compressing mangled strings by using substitutions of the form S[0-9A-Z]*_ to represent repeated components. When the prefix is handled as wrapping inside a namespace, the base-36 substitution numbers all have to be incremented. This is implemented in a very simple way by scanning the string only for instances of the substitution pattern. Unfortunately, false matches are possible because the S[0-9A-Z]*_ pattern can be a substring of the type name, or can span other components of the mangled name. Getting this completely right would essentially require a full demangling parser - see the ~4000 lines of code in cxa_demangle.cpp and ItaniumMangle.cpp. Since this is just for testing, any false matches will likely cause a linking error and the test can be rewritten to avoid false matches.
