// Normalize an absolute path to an existing header.
//
- // We used to just normalize the path but that could result in an invalid
- // path (e.g., for some system/compiler headers on CentOS 7 with Clang
- // 3.4) because of the symlinks (if a directory component is a symlink,
- // then any following `..` are resolved relative to the target; see
- // path::normalize() for background).
- //
- // Initially, to fix this, we realized (i.e., realpath(3)) it instead.
- // But that turned out also not to be quite right since now we have all
- // the symlinks resolved: conceptually it feels correct to keep the
- // original header names since that's how the user chose to arrange things
- // and practically this is how the compilers see/report them (e.g., the
- // GCC module mapper).
- //
- // So now we have a pretty elaborate scheme where we try to use the
- // normalized path if possible and fallback to realized. Normalized paths
- // will work for situations where `..` does not cross symlink boundaries,
- // which is the sane case. And for the insane case we only really care
- // about out-of-project files (i.e., system/compiler headers). In other
- // words, if you have the insane case inside your project, then you are on
- // your own.
