You don't need to duplicate hundreds of tests to have appropriate Sema tests for this functionality. You could have added a single test file to test/Sema that tests each of the builtins you care about the semantic diagnostic behavior of. Doing this from codegen on a hundreds of individual tests that don't run everywhrere is disruptive because it makes modifying diagnostic behavior considerably harder than it should be. We separate codegen and sema tests for a reason.

I'll leave the test coverage but add `-std=c99` to the verify lines because that will unblock this patch. However, I'd still appreciate if the AArch64 maintainers would clean up these tests in a more appropriate fashion, because adding the -std= line also loses test coverage (especially when we switch the default language mode). This will need to happen sooner rather than later (relatively speaking; nothing is on fire requiring immediate attention) -- I expect we'll bump clang's default from C17 to C23 sometime in the next few years, at which point all of these tests will fail to compile because there will be no support for implicit function declarations whatsoever.
