Compiler:
- Add `Forward` and `Reverse` to `DifferentiabilityKind`.
- Expand `DifferentiabilityMask` in `ExtInfo` to 3 bits so that it now holds all 4 cases of `DifferentiabilityKind`.
- Parse `@differentiable(reverse)` and `@differentiable(_forward)` declaration attributes and type attributes.
- Emit a warning for `@differentiable` without `reverse`.
- Emit an error for `@differentiable(_forward)`.
- Rename `@differentiable(linear)` to `@differentiable(_linear)`.
- Make `@differentiable(reverse)` type lowering go through today's `@differentiable` code path. We will specialize it to reverse-mode in a follow-up patch.
ABI:
- Add `Forward` and `Reverse` to `FunctionMetadataDifferentiabilityKind`.
- Extend `TargetFunctionTypeFlags` by 1 bit to store the highest bit of differentiability kind (linear). Note that there is a 2-bit gap in `DifferentiabilityMask` which is reserved for `AsyncMask` and `ConcurrentMask`; `AsyncMask` is ABI-stable so we cannot change that.
_Differentiation module:
- Replace all occurrences of `@differentiable` with `@differentiable(reverse)`.
- Delete `_transpose(of:)`.

Since these types have an implicit stored property, this requires
adding an abstraction over fields to IRGen, at least throughout
the class code. In some ways I think this significantly improves
the code, especially in how we approach missing members.
Fixes rdar://72202671.
We expect to iterate on this quite a bit, both publicly
and internally, but this is a fine starting-point.
I've renamed runAsync to runAsyncAndBlock to underline
very clearly what it does and why it's not long for this
world. I've also had to give it a radically different
implementation in an effort to make it continue to work
given an actor implementation that is no longer just
running all work synchronously.
The major remaining bit of actor-scheduling work is to
make swift_task_enqueue actually do something sensible
based on the executor it's been given; currently it's
expecting a flag that IRGen simply doesn't know to set.
In derivatives of loops, no longer allocate boxes for indirect case payloads. Instead, use a custom pullback context in the runtime which contains a bump-pointer allocator.
When a function contains a differentiated loop, the closure context is a `Builtin.NativeObject`, which contains a `swift::AutoDiffLinearMapContext` and a tail-allocated top-level linear map struct (which represents the linear map struct that was previously directly partial-applied into the pullback). In branching trace enums, the payloads of previously indirect cases will be allocated by `swift::AutoDiffLinearMapContext::allocate` and stored as a `Builtin.RawPointer`.
`Builtin.createAsyncTask` takes flags, an optional parent task, and an
async/throwing function to execute, and passes it along to the
`swift_task_create_f` entry point to create a new (potentially child)
task, returning the new task and its initial context.
Implement a new builtin, `cancelAsyncTask()`, to cancel the given
asynchronous task. This lowers down to a call into the runtime
operation `swift_task_cancel()`.
Use this builtin to implement Task.Handle.cancel().
This introduces a new builtin, `getCurrentAsyncTask()`, that produces a
reference to the current task. This builtin can only be used within
`async` functions, and IR generation merely grabs the task argument
and packages it up.
The type of this function is `() -> Builtin.NativeObject`, because we
don't currently have a Swift-level representation of tasks, and can
probably handle everything through builtins or runtime calls.
This patch includes a large number of changes to make sure that:
1. When ExtInfo values are created, we store a ClangTypeInfo if applicable.
2. We reduce dependence on storing SIL representations in ASTExtInfo values.
3. Reduce places where we sloppily create ASTExtInfo values which should
store a Clang type but don't. In certain places, this is unavoidable;
see [NOTE: ExtInfo-Clang-type-invariant].
Ideally, we would check that the appropriate SILExtInfo does always store
a ClangTypeInfo. However, the presence of the HasClangFunctionTypes option
means that we would need to condition that assertion based on a dynamic check.
Plumbing the setting down to SILExtInfoBuilder's checkInvariants would be too
much work. So we weaken the check for now; we should strengthen it once we
"turn on" HasClangFunctionTypes and remove the dynamic feature switch.
Since the two ExtInfos share a common ClangTypeInfo, and C++ doesn't let us
forward declare nested classes, we need to hoist out AnyFunctionType::ExtInfo
and SILFunctionType::ExtInfo to the top-level.
We also add some convenience APIs on (AST|SIL)ExtInfo for frequently used
withXYZ methods. Note that all non-default construction still goes through the
builder's build() method.
We do not add any checks for invariants here; those will be added later.
Add `async` to the type system. `async` can be written as part of a
function type or function declaration, following the parameter list, e.g.,
func doSomeWork() async { ... }
`async` functions are distinct from non-`async` functions and there
are no conversions amongst them. At present, `async` functions do not
*do* anything, but this commit fully supports them as a distinct kind
of function throughout:
* Parsing of `async`
* AST representation of `async` in declarations and types
* Syntactic type representation of `async`
* (De-/re-)mangling of function types involving 'async'
* Runtime type representation and reconstruction of function types
involving `async`.
* Dynamic casting restrictions for `async` function types
* (De-)serialization of `async` function types
* Disabling overriding, witness matching, and conversions with
differing `async`
There is no need to build a fake RequirementRepr if we can directly represent a the requested AnyObject conformance constraint in the generated generic signature.
This removes the final user of the TypeLoc-bearing constructors of RequirementReprs.
