For details see the GNAT units sinput.ads/sinput.adb (I don't think you particularly need to know Ada or many other details of GNAT to follow the approach). Basically we use a single 32-bit number to represent a source position. We have a table that shows where each file starts in this 32-bit space, and you can binary search this table to find out what file a 32-bit value belongs to. For instantiations we create essentially a phantom copy of the source that has a separate entry in this table, so that when you go back to the table you know that the source position is offset bla in file xxx instantiated at yyy (since yyy is itself a similar 32-bit location, the instantiation chain can be followed recursively).
