================
Comment at: clang/lib/CodeGen/CGDebugInfo.cpp:3659
     // Use llvm function name.
-    Name = Fn->getName();
+    if (Fn->getName().startswith("___Z"))
+      LinkageName = Fn->getName();

Ok, I understand the objections to special casing like this. We ended up setting both the `Name` and `LinkageName` unconditionally in this branch because not setting the name for subroutines end up with us generating `DW_TAG_subprogram` without a `DW_AT_name` which is not valid. We discovered this when running the LLDB test suite.
