The `maxBitfieldID` was defined as `size_t` and used to assert
bitfield ID values. The `currentBitfieldID` of `SILFunction` is
defined as `uint64_t`, so we should consistently use `uint64_t`
for `maxBitfieldID` as well for 32-bit platforms.
`enum` is a signed integer type on some platforms. The return value of
`std::numeric_limits<T>::max()` is a `size_t` which is unsigned. Further
manipulation retains the unsigned-ness until the assignment which
results in truncation. Change the type to a `constexpr` constant
definition and remove the `enum` type along with a type conversion to an
explicitly unsigned integral type.
I am adding this instruction to express artificially that two non-Sendable
values should be part of the same region. It is meant to be used in cases where
due to unsafe code using Sendable, we stop propagating a non-Sendable dependency
that needs to be made in the same region of a use of said Sendable value. I
included an example in ./docs/SIL.rst of where this comes up with @out results
of continuations.
* Let the customBits and lastInitializedBitfieldID share a single uint64_t. This increases the number of available bits in SILNode and Operand from 8 to 20. Also, it simplifies the Operand class because no PointerIntPairs are used anymore to store the operand pointer fields.
* Instead make the "deleted" flag a separate bool field in SILNode (instead of encoding it with the sign of lastInitializedBitfieldID). Another simplification
* Enable important invariant checks also in release builds by using `require` instead of `assert`. Not catching such errors in release builds would be a disaster.
* Let the Swift optimization passes use all the available bits and not only a fixed amount of 8 (SILNode) and 16 (SILBasicBlock).
For years, optimizer engineers have been hitting a common bug caused by passes
assuming all SILValues have a parent function only to be surprised by SILUndef.
Generally we see SILUndef not that often so we see this come up later in
testing. This patch eliminates that problem by making SILUndef uniqued at the
function level instead of the module level. This ensures that it makes sense for
SILUndef to have a parent function, eliminating this possibility since we can
define an API to get its parent function.

We want to preserve the borrow scope during switch dispatch so that move-only
checking doesn't try to analyze destructures or consumes out of it. SILGen
should mark anywhere that's a potential possibility with its own marker so that
it gets borrow checked independently.
In preparation for inserting mark_dependence instructions for lifetime
dependencies early, immediately after SILGen. That will simplify the
implementation of borrowed arguments.
Marking them unresolved is needed to make OSSA verification
conservative until lifetime dependence diagnostics runs.
The dependent 'value' may be marked 'nonescaping', which guarantees that the
lifetime dependence is statically enforceable. In this case, the compiler
must be able to follow all values forwarded from the dependent 'value', and
recognize all final (non-forwarded, non-escaping) use points. This implies
that `findPointerEscape` is false. A diagnostic pass checks that the
incoming SIL to verify that these use points are all initially within the
'base' lifetime. Regular 'mark_dependence' semantics ensure that
optimizations cannot violate the lifetime dependence after diagnostics.
This commit just introduces the instruction. In a subsequent commit, I am going
to add support to SILGen to emit this. This ensures that when we assign into a
tuple var we initialize it with one instruction instead of doing it in pieces.
The problem with doing it in pieces is that when one is emitting diagnostics it
looks semantically like SILGen actually is emitting code for initializing in
pieces which could be an error.
The `bare` attribute indicates that the object header is not used throughout the lifetime of the value.
This means, no reference counting operations are performed on the object and its metadata is not used.
The header of bare objects doesn't need to be initialized.

"reborrow" flag on the SILArgument avoids transitive walk over the phi operandsi
to determine if it is a reborrow in multiple utilities.
SIL transforms must keep the flag up-to-date by calling SILArgument::setReborrow.
SILVerifier checks to ensure the flag is not invalidated.
Currently "escaping" is not used anywhere.
The macros are all used with a semicolon after the macro invocation, so
the comma inside the macro and outside the macro are redundant. This
causes a warning in modern compilers with extra warnings enabled that it
is quite spammy in the output.
Remove the commas inside the macro to avoid the warning. This should not
have any meningful effect in the result.
This is in preparation for wiring up debug info support for noncopyable
values. Originally this flag name made sense since it was set when we performed
consume operator checking. Now I am going to use it for noncopyable types as
well. I think the new name uses_moveable_value_debuginfo actually describes what
the flag is supposed to do, tell IRGen that the value may be moved since it
needs to use moveable value debug info emission.
I am adding this to make it easy to determine if a SILFunction that is not inout
aliasable is captured. This is useful when emitting certain types of
diagnostics like I need to emit with move only.
Instead of setting the parent pointer to null, set the `lastInitializedBitfieldID` to -1.
This allows to keep the parent block information, even when an instruction is removed from it's list.
This lets us write optimizer unit tests and selectively debug the
optimizer in general. We'll be able trace analyses and control
optimization selectively for certain values.
Adding a trace flag to debug_value is the easiest way to start using
it experimentally and develop the rest of the infrastructure. If this
takes off, then we can consider a new `trace_value`
instruction. For now, reusing debug_value is the least intrusive way to
start writing liveness unit tests.
This is exactly like copy_addr except that it is not viewed from the verifiers
perspective as an "invalid" copy of a move only value. It is intended to be used
in two contexts:
1. When the move checker emits a diagnostic since it could not eliminate a copy,
we still need to produce valid SIL without copy_addr on move only types since we
will hit canonical SIL eventually even if we don't actually codegen the SIL. The
pass can just convert said copy_addr to explicit_copy_addr and everyone is
happy.
2. To implement the explicit copy function for address only types.
It's used to implement `InstructionSet` and `ValueSet`: sets of SILValues and SILInstructions.
Just like `BasicBlockSet` for basic blocks, the set is implemented by setting bits directly in SILNode.
This is super efficient because insertion and deletion to/from the set are basic bit operations.
The cost is an additional word in SILNode. But this is basically negligible: it just adds ~0.7% of memory used for SILInstructions.
In my experiments, I didn't see any relevant changes in memory consumption or compile time.
The use of the SWIFT_INLINE_BITFIELD macros in SILNode were a constant source of confusion and bugs.
With this refactoring I tried to simplify the definition of "shared fields" in SILNode, SILValue and SILInstruction classes:
* Move `kind`, `locationKindAndFlags` and the 32-bit fields out of the 64-bitfield into their own member variables. This avoids _a lot_ of manual bit position computations.
* Now we have two separate "shared fields": an 8-bit field (e.g. for boolean flags) and a 32-bit field (e.g. for indices, which can potentially get large). Both fields can be used independently. Also, they are not "bit fields" per se. Instructions can use the field e.g. as a `bool`, `uint32_t`, or - if multiple flags are to be stored - as a packed bit field.
* With these two separate fields, we don't have the need for defining bitfields both in a base class _and_ in a derived value/instruction class. We can get rid of the complex logic which handles such cases. Just keep a check to catch accidental overlaps of fields in base and derived classes.
* Still use preprocessor macros for the implementation, but much simpler ones than before.
* Add documentation.
As we do with field indices for struct instructions.
This avoids quadratic behavior in case of enums with lots of cases.
Also: cache field and enum case indices in the SILModule.
Introduce a new instruction `dealloc_stack_ref ` and remove the `stack` flag from `dealloc_ref`.
The `dealloc_ref [stack]` was confusing, because all it does is to mark the deallocation of the stack space for a stack promoted object.
Support for addresses with arbitrary alignment as opposed to their
element type's natural in-memory alignment.

This is the initial version of a buildable SIL definition in libswift.
It defines an initial set of SIL classes, like Function, BasicBlock, Instruction, Argument, and a few instruction classes.
The interface between C++ and SIL is a bridging layer, implemented in C.
It contains all the required bridging data structures used to access various SIL data structures.
