In the fast dependency scanner, depending on whether a module intrface was found via the import search path or framework search path, encode into the dependency graph Swift module details, whether a given module is a framework.
Some implicitly imported modules aren't printed in the textual interface file as explicit import,
e.g. SwiftOnoneSupport. We should check implicit imports and add them to the dependency graph.
- deduplicate the logic to compute the resource folder
- install headers and module files in shared and static resource folders
- forward -static flag when calling swiftc with -print-target-info
Print implementation-only imports in the private textual interface
only if also importing SPI. This allows to export types from
implementation-only imports in SPI and brings the private textual
interfaces in line with the binary interfaces.
This is a temporary solution as we need to better design the language
feature around this.
This feature requires passing -experimental-spi-imports to the frontend
that generates the private swiftinterface file.
We have landed support for serialization Clang function types, but there is
still work to be done here.
Moreover, we should use a consistent style with `[(FIXME|TODO|NOTE): label]`,
instead of using different styles throughout the code.
In order to avoid accidentally implicitly loading modules that are expected but were not provided as explicit inputs.
- Use either SerializedModuleLoader or ExplicitSwiftModuleLoader for loading of partial modules, depending on whether we are in Explicit Module Build or Implicit Module Build mode.
-compile-module-from-interface action now takes arguments of -candidate-module-file.
If one of the candidate module files is up-to-date, the action emits a forwarding
module pointing to the candidate module instead of building a binary module.
Instead of replacing an interface file with its up-to-date compile module,
the dep-scanner should report potentially up-to-date module candidates either adjacent to
the interface file or in the prebuilt module cache. swift-driver should later pass down
these candidates to -compile-module-from-interface invocation and the front-end job
will check if one of the candidates is ready to use. The front-end job then either emits a forwarding
module to an up-to-date candidate or a binary module.
This flag no longer does anything now that the unified statistics
reporting infrastructure exists. It is better to use
-driver-time-compilation to see a bird's eye view of timing statistics
for frontend jobs, and -stats-output-dir to see a down-and-dirty view of
everything including performance counters.
Describe the backward-deployment libraries via a preprocessor-driven
table. Macro-metaprogramming the two places in the code base---the
driver and IRGen---to use this tabble to determine which
backward-compatibility libraries to link against.
For the explicit module mode, swift-driver uses -compile-module-from-interface to
generate modules from interfaces found by the dependency scanner. However, we don't
need to build the binary module if up-to-date modules are available, either adjacent
to the interface file or in the prebuilt module cache directory. This patch teaches
dependencies scanner to report these ready-to-use binary modules.
Expand the FrontendOptions to allow the enabling
of the dependency tracker for non-system
dependencies, and switch the previous clients of
`createDependencyTracker` over to using this
option. This ensures that the dependency tracker
is now set only during `CompilerInstance::setup`.
Instead of taking paths of Swift module files from front-end command line
arguments, we should take a JSON file specifying details of explicit modules.
The advantages is (1) .swiftdoc and .swiftsourceinfo can be associated
with a .swiftmodule file, and (2) module names are explicitly used as
keys in the JSON input so we don't need to eagerly deserialize a .swiftmodule
file to collect the module name.
