[libcxx-commits] [PATCH] D156907: [libc++][modules] Removes the module partitions.

I'm a bit concerned about the maintainability of this. AFAICT this change makes it basically impossible for tooling to parse the modules correctly. Would it be possible to have one partition that includes everything and have other modules do the actual exports (or something similar)? That should allow tooling to parse everything correctly and we don't have the problem that we have to parse a lot of code multiple times. Another option would be to just have a single huge file. I haven't looked at everything, but the total size would probably be < 5k lines, which wouldn't even make it the largest file we have in the library.

w.r.t. back-porting this it's a definite no from me, since this is an improvement of the library. Just like we shouldn't back-port other performance improvements without a really good reason. This feature is also still experimental. There is always a next release in a few months.
