Description

Reproducer: https://godbolt.org/z/5oaM6Yjv5

for

export module a;
export int func() {
    return 43;
}

Clang in Windows ABI generates:

"?func@@YAHXZ"

but MSVC generates:

?func@@YAHXZ::<!a>

This is a compatibility problem. And also this is a correctness problem. Since the design of C++20 Named Modules ask toolchains to treat the entity in different named modules as different entity at link time even they have the same name. So this is a missing feature at ABI level.

Estimated difficulty: medium
