// The OSX linker has an idiosyncrasy where it will ignore some debuginfo

// To avoid breaking split DWARF, we need to ensure that each codegen unit
// has a unique `DW_AT_name`. This is because there's a remote chance that
// different codegen units for the same module will have entirely
// identical DWARF entries for the purpose of the DWO ID, which would
// violate Appendix F ("Split Dwarf Object Files") of the DWARF 5
// specification. LLVM uses the algorithm specified in section 7.32 "Type
// Signature Computation" to compute the DWO ID, which does not include
// any fields that would distinguish compilation units. So we must embed
// the codegen unit name into the `DW_AT_name`. (Issue #88521.)
//
// Additionally, the OSX linker has an idiosyncrasy where it will ignore
// some debuginfo if multiple object files with the same `DW_AT_name` are
// linked together.
//
// As a workaround for these two issues, we generate unique names for each
// object file. Those do not correspond to an actual source file but that
// is harmless.
