This warning seems interesting, and I generally like the correctness
insistence, but the current output is really unhelpful. Let's look at one
of the *many* cases I'm trying to fix in LLVM's own code:

In file included from ../lib/Transforms/Utils/SSAUpdater.cpp:29:
../include/llvm/Transforms/Utils/SSAUpdaterImpl.h:406:54: warning: function
'PHI_begin' is in an anonymous namespace but is used in an inline method
with external linkage [-Winternal-linkage-in-inline]
      for (typename Traits::PHI_iterator I = Traits::PHI_begin(PHI),
                                                     ^

So, for starters this message doesn't read naturally with the code snippet
its pointing at because the message is a bit inverted. Imagine it instead
read as:

"warning: calling function 'PHI_begin' from an inline method with external
linkage, but this method is defined in an anonymous namespace"

This actually starts with the code under the cursor, and takes the user to
the nature of the problem.

Now we get a pile of template instantiation notes... ok...

../include/llvm/Transforms/Utils/SSAUpdaterImpl.h:382:11: note: in
instantiation of member function
'llvm::SSAUpdaterImpl<llvm::SSAUpdater>::CheckIfPHIMatches' requested here
      if (CheckIfPHIMatches(SomePHI)) {
          ^
../include/llvm/Transforms/Utils/SSAUpdaterImpl.h:329:7: note: in
instantiation of member function
'llvm::SSAUpdaterImpl<llvm::SSAUpdater>::FindExistingPHI' requested here
      FindExistingPHI(Info->BB, BlockList);
      ^
../include/llvm/Transforms/Utils/SSAUpdaterImpl.h:91:5: note: in
instantiation of member function
'llvm::SSAUpdaterImpl<llvm::SSAUpdater>::FindAvailableVals' requested here
    FindAvailableVals(&BlockList);
    ^
../lib/Transforms/Utils/SSAUpdater.cpp:352:15: note: in instantiation of
member function 'llvm::SSAUpdaterImpl<llvm::SSAUpdater>::GetValue'
requested here
  return Impl.GetValue(BB);
              ^

And then this note, which is *crazy* important:

../lib/Transforms/Utils/SSAUpdater.cpp:270:30: note: 'PHI_begin' declared
here
  static inline PHI_iterator PHI_begin(PhiT *PHI) { return
PHI_iterator(PHI); }
                             ^


Now, at this point, I know where the bad use is, why it is bad, and where
the used entity is declared. But this doesn't really tell me how to fix
anything.

Even worse, if you dig into it, you'll see that PHI_begin is *not* in fact
declared in an anonymous namespace at all. It is a static member of a class
template specialization declared in the 'llvm' namespace! So why did clang
lie to us and complain?

Well, the return type is a typedef, and that typedef is of a type defined
in an anonymous namespace. Because of that, the return type has internal
linkage, which means the function has internal linkage, which means we
can't call it from an inline function with external linkage. OW!

I don't think most folks are going to figure that out easily. I think we'll
need to do several things to help users get benefit from the warning:

1) We need to fix the wording to be more precise about declarations within
an anonymous namespace, versus file-static declarations, versus
declarations with internal linkage (for some other reason). There is
already some of that here, but not enough I think.

2) We need to actually dig out *why* the entity has internal linkage if at
all possible, and tell the user that ("due to its return type" or
something).

3) Ideally, when we dig out the reason as having to do with some aspect of
the function's type, we should emit a second note at the location of the
internal linkage type that cascaded to the function.


Does that seem reasonable? Is this do-able?
