Previously some parts of the compiler referred to them as "fields",
and most referred to them as "elements". Use the more generic 'elements'
nomenclature because that's what we refer to other things in the compiler
(e.g. the elements of a bracestmt).
At the same time, make the API better by providing "getElement" consistently
and using it, instead of getElements()[i].

As part of this, re-arrange the argument order so that
generic arguments come before the context, which comes
before the error result. Be more consistent about always
adding a context parameter on thick functions, even
when it's unused. Pull out the witness-method Self
argument so that it appears last after the error
argument.
Swift SVN r26667
It can be enabled with the -num-threads <n> option.
Without this option there should be NFC.
When enabled, the LLVM IR is split into multiple modules: one module for each input file.
And for each module an output file is generated. All output files must be specified with -o options:
for each input file in the command line there must be an -o <outputfile> option.
LLVM compilation is performed on each module separately.
This means that the generated code is different than with regular -wmo.
But performance and code size should be approximately the same because important inter-file
optimizations are already done at SIL level (e.g. inlining, specialization).
There is still no support in the driver for this feature.

correct preconditions for ObjC layout, and write the
computed offsets back to global ivar offset variables
when present.
Swift will use the global variables for accesses to
ivars when it can show that their offsets are
non-dependent.
Fixes a major problem with generic subclasses of ObjC
classes whose dynamic layout does not match the layout
in their @interface.

The field type generator may end up producing recursive static references to metadata while we're generating metadata. Fixes rdar://problem/19838839.
Swift SVN r25534
This avoids redundant calls of swift_get*Metadata() if the metadata is reused in the same basic block
or if it is already availabe in the function entry block.
There is still room for improvement, e.g. by not limiting the reuse to a single block.
This change reduces the dylib codesize by about 11%, mostly in protocoll witnesses (-34%).
It also results in some improvements for the -Onone performance:
RangeAssignment: +31%
StdlibSort: +20%

IRGen miscalculated that the allocating constructor for a required init that overrides a non-required init introduces a new vtable entry; the non-required super allocator is statically dispatched. Fix this and head off further divergences by reusing the logic in the new SILDeclRef::getOverriddenVTableEntry method. Fixes rdar://problem/19514920.
Swift SVN r25068
Since protocol descriptors look like ObjC Protocol objects, we want to mangle the type prefix into their names to make them obviously Swift mangled names, but we were only doing this for @objc protocols, not native protocols. For consistency, do the same thing with native descriptors, and update the runtime type display code to match. Fixes rdar://problem/19691574.
Swift SVN r25014
We still preserve IRGen's current ordering of vtable slots, but use SIL's record of which SILFunction implements which method instead of walking overrides independently. Another step on the way to rdar://problem/19321484; if SILGen determines that a thunk is needed to interface an override with its base method, IRGen will now pick it up. (Thunk generation is still busted in certain inheritance cases I need to fix before declaring victory though.)

If the FieldNames data is exactly 4 or 8 or 16 bytes long then on arm64
it is compiled as a 4/8/16 byte literal instead of as ordinary data.
This confuses something in the toolchain so the final linked executable
gets an invalid FieldNames pointer.
Workaround: pad the FieldNames data to avoid those sizes.

We still need thin-function-to-RawPointer conversions
for generic code, but that's fixable with some sort of
partial_apply_thin_recoverable instruction.

Teach IRGen and the runtime about the extra inhabitants
of function pointers, and take advantage of that in
thin and thick function types.
Also add runtime entrypoints for thin function type

storage for arbitrary values.
A buffer doesn't provide any way to identify the type of
value it stores, and so it cannot be copied, moved, or
destroyed independently; thus it's not available as a
first-class type in Swift, which is why I've labelled
it Unsafe. But it does allow an efficient means of
opaquely preserving information between two cooperating
functions. This will be useful for the adjustments I
need to make to materializeForSet to support safe
addressors.
I considered making this a SIL type category instead,
like $@value_buffer T. This is an attractive idea because
it's generally better-typed. The disadvantages are that:
- it would need its own address_to_pointer equivalents and
- alloc_stack doesn't know what type will be stored in
any particular buffer, so there still needs to be
something opaque.
This representation is a bit gross, but it'll do.
Swift SVN r23903
References to functions that take inout parameters crash the compiler
because InOutType isn't a "real" type in itself and has no special type
metadata to emit. It merely further qualifies the function's input
types.
For example, we would like to have a unique entry in the cache for:
var f: (T, T) -> ()
and
var f2: (inout T, T) -> ()
For each argument type metadata pointer in the function's input, take
advantage of pointer alignment and mark the lowest bit if it is inout.
Since the metadata cache uses pointers to create the key, this creates a
unique entry while still being able to extract the actual pointer.
This fixes <rdar://problem/17655125>, and a couple of other similar
crashes.
Swift SVN r23557
Just injecting a new protocol descriptor into an already-running ObjC runtime isn't a good idea, since the runtime might have already canonized the protocol somewhere else, and it won't recognize that classes conform to protocols it doesn't know about.
Swift SVN r23313
Previously, we were not respecting the representation of the existential
metatype and were treating all existential metatypes as if the metatype
was a thick metatype. Instead now we properly grab the instance of the
class from the existential and then query the runtime for the
objc_class. This is done via the new entrypoint
emitHeapMetadataRefForUnknownHeapObject.
I also modified emitHeapMetadataRefForHeapObject to use
emitHeapMetadataRefForUnknownHeapObject instead of
emitLoadOfObjCHeapMetadataRef since the latter does not properly handle
tagged pointers. This bug was found on inspection when Joe and I were
talking about this change.

We lazily realize classes when we access their metadata now, so there's no need to force the ObjC runtime to do this greedily anymore, except for classes that the runtime statically references. For those cases, add an @objc_non_lazy_realization class attribute that will put that class reference in the nlclslist section.
Swift SVN r23105
Move the uniquing information for ForeignTypeMetadata behind the address point so we can share the layout between foreign classes and the existing layout for struct and enum metadata. Emit metadata records for imported structs and enums as foreign metadata candidates, and dynamically unique references to the metadata by calling swift_getForeignTypeMetadata.

We want to use the reserved space in the metadata pattern for protocol conformance caching, and this link lets us find the metadata pattern from an instance of the generic type.

This is a type that has ownership of a reference while allowing access to the
spare bits inside the pointer, but which can also safely hold an ObjC tagged pointer
reference (with no spare bits of course). It additionally blesses one
Foundation-coordinated bit with the meaning of "has swift refcounting" in order
to get a faster short-circuit to native refcounting. It supports the following
builtin operations:
- Builtin.castToBridgeObject<T>(ref: T, bits: Builtin.Word) ->
Builtin.BridgeObject
Creates a BridgeObject that contains the bitwise-OR of the bit patterns of
"ref" and "bits". It is the user's responsibility to ensure "bits" doesn't
interfere with the reference identity of the resulting value. In other words,
it is undefined behavior unless:
castReferenceFromBridgeObject(castToBridgeObject(ref, bits)) === ref
This means "bits" must be zero if "ref" is a tagged pointer. If "ref" is a real
object pointer, "bits" must not have any non-spare bits set (unless they're
already set in the pointer value). The native discriminator bit may only be set
if the object is Swift-refcounted.
- Builtin.castReferenceFromBridgeObject<T>(bo: Builtin.BridgeObject) -> T
Extracts the reference from a BridgeObject.
- Builtin.castBitPatternFromBridgeObject(bo: Builtin.BridgeObject) -> Builtin.Word
Presents the bit pattern of a BridgeObject as a Word.
BridgeObject's bits are set up as follows on the various platforms:
i386, armv7:
No ObjC tagged pointers
Swift native refcounting flag bit: 0x0000_0001
Other available spare bits: 0x0000_0002
x86_64:
Reserved for ObjC tagged pointers: 0x8000_0000_0000_0001
Swift native refcounting flag bit: 0x0000_0000_0000_0002
Other available spare bits: 0x7F00_0000_0000_0004

Reserved for ObjC tagged pointers: 0x8000_0000_0000_0000

Other available spare bits: 0x3F00_0000_0000_0007

- A spot fix in SILGen for reabstracting the result of a downcast, which fixes checked casts to function types.
- Associate the layout information in type metadata records with the most abstract representation of the type. This is the correct thing to do in cases where we need the metadata as a tag for an opaque value--if we store a value in an Any, or pass it as an unconstrained generic parameter, we must maximally reabstract it. This fixes the value semantics of existentials containing trivial metatypes.
- To ensure that we get runtime layout of structs and enums correct when they contain reabstractable types, introduce a "metadata for layout" concept, which doesn't need to describe the canonical metadata for the type, but only needs to describe a type with equivalent layout and value semantics. This is a correctness fix that allows us to correctly lay out generic types containing dependent tuples and functions, and although we don't really take advantage of it here, it's also a potential runtime performance win down the road, because we could potentially produce direct metadata for a primitive type that's layout-equivalent with a runtime-instantiated type. To aid in type safety here, push SILType deeper into IRGen in places where we potentially care about specific representations of types.
- Finally, fix an inconsistency between the runtime and IRGen's concept of what spare bits unmanaged references and thick metatypes have.
Together, these fixes address rdar://problem/16406907, rdar://problem/17822208, rdar://problem/18189508, and likely many other related issues, and also fixes crash suite cases 012 and 024.

We were stopping too early when binding witness tables for local archetypes, causing us to miss binding witness tables for native protocols if the number of total protocols was greater than the number of protocols with witness tables, and we failed to increment the local type data key to match the Archetype::getConformsTo() ordinal when binding polymorphic parameters. Together these fix rdar://problem/18232916 (though adding any methods to a class still crashes because of rdar://problem/17480006).

pass the size and alignment of each field. Take advantage
of this to pass a constant size and alignment when
possible.
This avoids the need to recursively find type metadata for
every field type, allowing generic recursively-structured

A new generic class gets its metaclass's superclass pointer from the
superclass's metaclass. On arm64 the superclass's metaclass may not be
a pointer and must be fetched using object_getClass().
Three existing tests caught this bug but only when running on an iOS 8
device. On iOS 7, the arclite implementation of objc_readClassPair()
happened to rewrite the field before the runtime tripped over it.

unexpected forematter from the superclass.
This requires a pretty substantial shift in the
generic-metadata allocation/initialization dance
because (1) we can't allocate class metadata without
knowing what the superclass is and (2) the offset
from the metadata cache entry to the address point is
no longer determined solely by the metadata pattern.
While I'm making invasive changes to metadata, fix
two race conditions in metadata creation. The first
is that we need to ensure that only one thread succeeds
at lazily creating a generic-metadata cache. The second
is that we need to ensure that only one thread actually
attempts to create a particular metadata; any others
should block until the metadata is successfully built.
This commit finishes rdar://17776354. LLDB will

Expose Substitution's archetype, replacement, and conformances only through getters so we can actually assert invariants about them. To start, require replacement types to be materializable in order to catch cases where the type-checker tries to bind type variables to lvalue or inout types, and require the conformance array to match the number of protocol conformances required by the archetype. This exposes some latent bugs in the test suite I've marked as failures for now:
- test/Constraints/overload.swift was quietly suffering from <rdar://problem/17507421>, but we didn't notice because we never tried to codegen it.
- test/SIL/Parser/array_roundtrip.swift doesn't correctly roundtrip substitutions, which I filed as <rdar://problem/17781140>.
