[cfe-dev] Clang ms_abi - vectorcall incompatible?

[via cfe-dev]

Hello Aaron,

thank you for your response. I can open a bug for it in bugzilla - but 
there is one thing I don't get.

What do I have to type, to declare a function for using the MS ABI version 
of vectorcall? I figured out, that ms_abi only works for the cdecl calling 
convention.

Clang is diagnosing because it treats ms_abi and vectorcall as both
being calling convention attributes and the conventions don't match.
We give the same diagnostic if you attempt to add both stdcall and
cdecl calling conventions to the function. This happens in
handleFunctionTypeAttr() from SemaType.cpp.

GCC accepts ms_abi and vectorcall on the same declaration, so it would
be reasonable for us to do the same. Would you be willing to file a
bug in Bugzilla so we don't lose track of this?
