* IRGen: Change c-o-w existential implementation functions
* initialzeBufferWith(Copy|Take)OfBuffer value witness implementation for cow existentials
Implement and use initialzeBufferWith(Copy|Take)OfBuffer value witnesses for
copy-on-write existentials.
Before we used a free standing function but the overhead of doing so was
noticable (~20-30%) on micro benchmarks.
* IRGen: Use common getCopyOutOfLineBoxPointerFunction
* Add a runtime function to conditionally make a box unique
* Fix compilation of HeapObject.cpp on i386
* Fix IRGen test case
* Fix test case for i386
Adds the runtime implementation for copy-on-write existentials. This support is
enabled if SWIFT_RUNTIME_ENABLE_COW_EXISTENTIALS is defined. Focus is on
correctness -- not performance yet.
Don't use allocate/deallocate/projectBuffer witnesses for globals in cow
existential mode.
Use SWIFT_RUNTIME_ENABLE_COW_EXISTENTIALS configuration to set the default for
SILOptions.
This includes an IRGen fix to use the right projection in
emitMetatypeOfOpaqueExistential if SWIFT_RUNTIME_ENABLE_COW_EXISTENTIALS is set.
Use unknownRetain instead of native retain in dynamicCastToExistential.
For a value of an opaque generic type `<T> x: T`, the language currently defines `type(of: x)` and `T.self` as both producing a type `T.Type`, and the result of substituting an existential type by `T == P` gives `P.Protocol`, so the `type(of:)` operation on `x` can only give the concrete protocol metatype when `x` is an existential in this case. The optimizer understood this rule, but the runtime did not, causing SR-3304.
Changes:
* Terminate all namespaces with the correct closing comment.
* Make sure argument names in comments match the corresponding parameter name.
* Remove redundant get() calls on smart pointers.
* Prefer using "override" or "final" instead of "virtual". Remove "virtual" where appropriate.
- All parts of the compiler now use ‘P1 & P2’ syntax
- The demangler and AST printer wrap the composition in parens if it is
in a metatype lookup
- IRGen mangles compositions differently
- “protocol<>” is now “swift.Any”
- “protocol<_TP1P,_TP1Q>” is now “_TP1P&_TP1Q”
- Tests cases are updated and added to test the new syntax and mangling
specialization to be separately lowered in IRGen, use the mangling
of the specialized type as the name of the llvm::StructType instead
of the base, unspecialized type.
This tends to produce fewer collisions between IR type names.
LLVM does unique the names on its own, so that's not strictly
necessary, but it's still a good idea because it makes the test
output more reliable and somewhat easier to read (modulo the
impact of bigger type names). Collisions will still occur if
the type is specialized at an archetype, since in this case we
will fall back on the unspecialized type.
Properly lower reference counting SIL instructions with nonatomic attribute as invocations of corresponding non-atomic reference counting runtime functions.
"minimal" is defined as the set of requirements that would be
passed to a function with the type's generic signature that
takes the thick metadata of the parent type as its only argument.
And use the new project_existential_box to get to the address value.
SILGen now generates a project_existential_box for each alloc_existential_box.
And IRGen re-uses the address value from the alloc_existential_box if the operand of project_existential_box is an alloc_existential_box.
This lets the generated code be the same as before.
Use them to generate value witnesses when the type has dynamic packing.
Regularize the interface for calling value witnesses.
Not a huge difference yet, although we do re-use local type data
a little more effectively now.
Since that's somewhat expensive, allow the generation of meaningful
IR value names to be efficiently controlled in IRGen. By default,
enable meaningful value names only when generating .ll output.
I considered giving protocol witness tables the name T:Protocol
instead of T.Protocol, but decided that I didn't want to update that
many test cases.
The main idea here is that we really, really want to be
able to recover the protocol requirement of a conformance
reference even if it's abstract due to the conforming type
being abstract (e.g. an archetype). I've made the conversion
from ProtocolConformance* explicit to discourage casual
contamination of the Ref with a null value.
As part of this change, always make conformance arrays in
Substitutions fully parallel to the requirements, as opposed
to occasionally being empty when the conformances are abstract.
As another part of this, I've tried to proactively fix
prospective bugs with partially-concrete conformances, which I
believe can happen with concretely-bound archetypes.
In addition to just giving us stronger invariants, this is
progress towards the removal of the archetype from Substitution.
Instead of categorically forbidding caching within a conditional
scope, permit it but remember how to remove the cache entries.
This means that ad-hoc emission code can now get exactly the
right caching behavior if they use this properly. In keeping
with that, adjust a bunch of code to properly nest scopes
according to the conditional paths they enter.
There are several interesting new features here.
The first is that, when emitting a SILFunction, we're now able to
cache type data according to the full dominance structure of the
original function. For example, if we ask for type metadata, and
we've already computed it in a dominating position, we're now able
to re-use that value; previously, we were limited to only doing this
if the value was from the entry block or the LLVM basic block
matched exactly. Since this tracks the SIL dominance relationship,
things in IRGen which add their own control flow must be careful
to suppress caching within blocks that may not dominate the
fallthrough; this mechanism is currently very crude, but could be
made to allow a limited amount of caching within the
conditionally-executed blocks.
This query is done using a proper dominator tree analysis, even at -O0.
I do not expect that we will frequently need to actually build the
tree, and I expect that the code-size benefits of doing a real
analysis will be significant, especially as we move towards making
more metadata lazily computed.
The second feature is that this adds support for "abstract"
cache entries, which indicate that we know how to derive the metadata
but haven't actually done so. This code isn't yet tested, but
it's going to be the basis of making a lot of things much lazier.
of associated types in protocol witness tables.
We use the global access functions when the result isn't
dependent, and a simple accessor when the result can be cheaply
recovered from the conforming metadata. Otherwise, we add a
cache slot to a private section of the witness table, forcing
an instantiation per conformance. Like generic type metadata,
concrete instantiations of generic conformances are memoized.
There's a fair amount of code in this patch that can't be
dynamically tested at the moment because of the widespread
reliance on recursive expansion of archetypes / dependent
types. That's something we're now theoretically in a position
to change, and as we do so, we'll test more of this code.
This speculatively re-applies 7576a91009,
i.e. reverts commit 11ab3d537f.
We have not been able to duplicate the build failure in
independent testing; it might have been spurious or unrelated.

This reverts commit 6528ec2887, i.e.
it reapplies b1e3120a28, with a fix
to unbreak release builds.
This reverts commit b1e3120a28.
Reverting because this patch uses WitnessTableBuilder::PI in NDEBUG code.
That field only exists when NDEBUG is not defined, but now NextCacheIndex, a
field that exists regardless, is being updated based on information from PI.
This problem means that Release builds do not work.
