This should be yI.

The location of '+' in #2 is not encoded in xI or yI, we reach it through the expansion point location of the macro. The location in #1 is yI (and xI, in this case).

+     xI is roughly the index of the token inside the replacement-list
+     at the expansion point. So for '+', it's index would then be 1

"its"

+     [The index of token '1' would be 0 and the index of token 2 would
+     be 1]. So if '+' is our current xI, it is actualy an x1.

Are we still talking about #1 here? It looks to me like the index of "1" would be 2, the index of "+" would be 4, and the index of token "2" would be 6. I bet PLUS used to just be "A + B", and this section of comment didn't get updated when it changed.

Keep changing xI to yI.

+     Now what's the y1 then? Remember, we said macro_locations is an
+     array of pairs (xI,yI). We now know what the xI is, now let's
+     look at the yI.

xI allows us to find where the token was actually written. If the current macro context is also the spelling location of the token (e.g. #1 for "+"), then xI is the same as yI, i.e. the source location of that token.

If the current macro context is not the spelling location of the token (e.g. #0 or #1 for "1"), then xI is the location outside the current macro context. For "1" in #0, this the location of "1" in #1, which is a virtual location. For "1" in #1, this is the location of "1" in #2, which is a source location.

+   * If LRK is set to LRK_MACRO_EXPANSION_POINT
+   -------------------------------
+
+   The virtual location is resolved to the location to the locus of
+   the expansion point of the macro.

The first macro expansion point that led to this macro expansion.

+   * If LRK is set to LRK_MACRO_DEFINITION_LOCATION
+   --------------------------------------

The virtual location is resolved to the locus of the token in the context of the macro definition.

+   If LOC is the locus of a token that is an argument of a
+   function-like macro [replacing a parameter in the replacement list
+   of the macro] the virtual location is resolved to the locus of the
+   parameter that is replaced, in the context of the definition of the
+   macro.
+
+   If LOC is the locus of a token that is not an argument of a
+   function-like macro, then the function behaves as if LRK was set to
+   LRK_SPELLING_LOCATION.

(and then keep these two paragraphs)

+   Finally, if SPELLING_LOC is not NULL, *RESULTING_LOC is set to the
+   location to which LOC was resolved

SPELLING_LOC doesn't exist anymore.

+   ORIG_LOC is the orginal location of the token at the definition
+   point of the macro. If you read the extensive comments of struct
+   line_map_macro in line-map.h, this is the xI.
+
+   If the token is part of a macro argument, ORIG_PARM_REPLACEMENT_LOC
+   is the location of the point at wich the token (the argument)
+   replaces the macro parameter in the context of the relevant macro
+   definition. If you read the comments of struct line_map_macro in
+   line-map.h, this is the yI.  */

ORIG_LOC is the location of the token outside this macro expansion. If the token comes originally from the macro definition, it is the locus in the macro definition; otherwise it is a location in the caller of this macro expansion (which is a virtual location or a source location if the caller is itself a macro expansion or not).

MACRO_DEFINITION_LOC is the location in the macro definition, either of the token itself or of a macro parameter that it replaces.

+/* If LOCATION is the locus of a token that is an argument of a
+   function-like macro M and appears in the expansion of M, return the
+   locus of that argument in the context of the caller of M.  Note
+   that the caller of M is necessarily another macro.

Why is the caller of M necessarily another macro? In the PLUS example above, if we have the location for "1" in #1, won't it give us the location of "1" in #2?

  The context of M is a macro definition.

What does this mean?

+/* Return the source line number corresponding to source location
+   LOCATION.  SET is the line map set LOCATION comes from.  If

Let's call this linemap_get_expansion_line.

+linemap_get_source_column (struct line_maps *set,

This seems unused.

+linemap_get_file_path (struct line_maps *set,

Shouldn't we use this for BT_FILE in _cpp_builtin_macro_text? And call it linemap_get_expansion_filename.

The comment seems incorrect here. If the location passed in corresponds to a non-parameter token in a macro in a system header, we'll end up with the source location of that token, not the expansion location. What behavior do we want here?

+linemap_macro_loc_unwind (struct line_maps *set,

Let's call this linemap_macro_loc_to_spelling_point.

+/* If LOCATION is the locus of a token that is an argument of a
+   function-like macro M, return the location of that token in the
+   context of the definition of the first macro P which expansion

This seems unnecessarily complex. This function returns the spelling location of the token wherever it comes from, whether part of a macro definition or not.

linemap_macro_loc_to_exp_point,
linemap_macro_map_loc_unwind_once and linemap_macro_map_loc_to_def_point
are now static functions that are only subroutines of
linemap_resolve_location.  They are not part of the public line map API
anymore.

I still see them in line-map.h.

Let's rename linemap_macro_map_loc_unwind_once to "linemap_macro_map_loc_unwind_toward_spelling", and linemap_step_out_once to "linemap_macro_map_loc_unwind_toward_expansion".
