Solutions without quickfix:

• Using bear -- make to create a compile_commands.json database into the root of the project (that doesn't use cmake) solves some problems. Now COC can see (almost) all errors using clangd that gcc also see. CONS add another file and changes project workflow. The errors.err file is not used, and that is not a good solution here.

• Another solution, adding a ~/.config/clangd/config.yaml general file with some arguments mitigates the problem. CONS it is a general file, and many projects use different arguments.

coc.nvim displayed the errors from language server, for example clangd, LS reports the error with location and coc.nvim displayed them with signcolumn and highlighting.

Here, clangd reported L37 error, didn't report L57 as an error, coc.nvim only displayed L37 error.

For your solutions:

1. compile_commands.json is needed by clangd to work: https://clangd.llvm.org/installation#project-setup
2. clangd supports project configuration .clangd: https://clangd.llvm.org/config#files

from coc.nvim.

coc.nvim is an LSP client, this means what coc.nvim can do is depended on language server, the client requests from server for completion/diagnostics/formatting etc, handles what server responses and applies to vim buffer.

Back to your question, what you want is: make coc.nvim displays errors from clangd and errors.err both. Have no idea how to archive this, and it's not coc.nvim's mission target/task.
