Here I am asking for more verbose variable name (see above), but that seems unnecessarily long to me. How about shortening it to “-fcoverage-mapping”?

You should also add a check to make sure it is only used with -fprofile-instr-generate.

I know there is a lot of code in clang that doesn’t follow that convention, and perhaps you are doing it that way on purpose to be consistent, but please review all the new function names and follow the coding standard, except for any cases where it clearly makes more sense to match the existing code.
