This new format more efficiently represents existing information, while
more accurately encoding important information about nested generic
contexts with same-type and layout constraints that need to be evaluated
at runtime. It's also designed with an eye to forward- and
backward-compatible expansion for ABI stability with future Swift
versions.
* Remove RegisterPreservingCC. It was unused.
* Remove DefaultCC from the runtime. The distinction between C_CC and DefaultCC
was unused and inconsistently applied. Separate C_CC and DefaultCC are
still present in the compiler.
* Remove function pointer indirection from runtime functions except those
that are used by Instruments. The remaining Instruments interface is
expected to change later due to function pointer liability.
* Remove swift_rt_ wrappers. Function pointers are an ABI liability that we
don't want, and there are better ways to get nonlazy binding if we need it.
The fully custom wrappers were only needed for RegisterPreservingCC and
for optimizing the Instruments function pointers.
Emit nominal type access functions for imported types. These access
functions work with non-unique metadata references, so they perform
uniquing through the runtime on first access.
Fixes rdar://problem/36430234.
Emit protocol conformance descriptors as separate symbols, rather than
inlining them within the section for protocol conformance records. We
want separate symbols for protocol conformances both because it is easier
to make them variable-length (as required for conditional
conformances) and because we want to reference them from witness
tables (both of which are coming up).
We want to be able to re-order existing protocol requirements
and add new protocol requirements with default implementations.
Enable this by wrapping the witness table lookup inside a
thunk and calling the thunk, instead of open-coding the
witness table lookup directly in client code.
Introduce a new section that contains (relative) references to all of the
Swift protocol descriptors emitted into this module. We'll use this to
find protocol descriptors by name.
When emitting foreign class metadata (e.g., for an imported CF type), fill
in the superclass when we have one. The superclass will itself be a foreign
metadata candidate, so also register an initialization function that uniques
the superclass metadata once we've picked the canonical foreign class
metadata.
Swift class metadata has a bit to distinguish it from non-Swift Objective-C
classes. The stable ABI will use a different bit so that stable Swift and
pre-stable Swift can be distinguished from each other.
No bits are actually changed yet. Enabling the new bit needs to wait for
other coordination such as libobjc.

Adjust the IRGen for ObjC interop to ensure that the section that
metadata is emitted into the correct section for non-MachO targets.
This also adds a more comprehensive test for ensuring that the IRGen can
now be tested on all targets. Since the ObjC interop is now
controllable via the driver, this test does not require that the
objc_interop feature is present as it is a IRGen test.
This is the first step to remove the `REQUIRES: objc_interop` from the
IRGen tests.
This requires the witness table accessor function to gain two new parameters: a
pointer to an array of witness tables and their count. These are then passed down
to the instantiation function which reads them out of the array and writes them
into the newly-allocated witness table.
We use the count to assert that the number of conditional witness tables passed
in is what the protocol conformance expects, which is especially useful while
the feature is still experimental: it is a compiler/runtime bug if an incorrect
number is passed.
Interpreter support for thumb is not yet properly implemented/tested.
Disable thumb emission.
This change is necessary because LLVM now uses the features string in the
metadata. This features string contains '+thumb'.
This is a follow-up to 034241e440.

- Always include an array of requirement descriptors in the protocol
descriptor. For now, this doesn't contain anything except a general
requirement kind and an optional default implementation, but eventually
this can be augmented with type / name metadata. This array is always
emitted as constant.
- Guarantee the value of the extent fields in a protocol descriptor and
slightly tweak their meaning.
- Move the private-data field out of line in a generic witness table
descriptor so that the main descriptor can be emitted as constant.
- Rely on IRGen's notion of the witness-table layout instead of assuming
that SILWitnessTable and SILDefaultWitnessTable match the actual
physical layout.
This version of the patch uses a hack in which we assign internal rather
than private linkage to certain symbols in order to work around a Darwin
linker bug.
This commit contains:
-) adding the new instructions + infrastructure, like parsing, printing, etc.
-) support in IRGen to generate global object-variables (i.e. "heap" objects) which are statically initialized in the data section.
-) IRGen for global_value which lazily initializes the object header and returns a reference to the object.
For details see the documentation of the new instructions in SIL.rst.
To make this stick, I've disallowed direct use of that overload of
CreateCall. I've left the Constant overloads available, but eventually
we might want to consider fixing those, too, just to get all of this
code out of the business of manually remembering to pass around
attributes and calling conventions.
The test changes reflect the fact that we weren't really setting
attributes consistently at all, in this case on value witnesses.
The goals here are four-fold:
- provide cleaner internal abstractions
- avoid IR bloat from extra bitcasts
- avoid recomputing function-type lowering information
- allow more information to be propagated from the function
access site (e.g. class_method) to the call site
Use this framework immediately for class and protocol methods.
* Use clang's effective llvm triple for IR generation
Instead of using the target that was passed to the driver. Use the target from
the clang importer that might have been changed by clang (i.e armv7 to thumbv7
on darwin)

* Fix pic.swift test case
* Fix test abi_v7k.swift
* Address review comment for test osx-targets.swift
This is accomplished by recognizing this specific situation and
replacing the 'objc' attribute with a hidden '_objcRuntimeName'
attribute. This /only/ applies to classes that are themselves
non-generic (including any enclosing generic context) but that have
generic ancestry, and thus cannot be exposed directly to Objective-C.
This commit also eliminates '@NSKeyedArchiverClassName'. It was
decided that the distinction between '@NSKeyedArchiverClassName' and
'@objc' was too subtle to be worth explaining to developers, and that
any case where you'd use '@NSKeyedArchiverClassName' was already a
place where the ObjC name wasn't visible at compile time.
This commit does not update diagnostics to reflect this change; we're
going to change them anyway.
