https://github.com/swiftlang/swift/pull/72612 can be reverted because it is no
longer necessary for the interface of the stdlib to be compatible with
compilers without `$TypedThrows` support.
Functions that are used in public `@inlinable` function bodies can't be marked
`@_spi` nor can they be made obsolete. Also, they must retain `rethrows` so
that use of these entry points from other `rethrows` functions is accepted.
Builds on https://github.com/apple/swift/pull/72365. Once we no longer have to
support pre-`$TypedThrows` compilers, all of this can be reverted.
Part of rdar://125138945
We trust the internal implementation of the stdlib to not cause any unintentional buffer overflows.
In such cases we can use the "unprotected" address-to-pointer conversions.
This avoids inserting stack protections where it's not needed.
This abbreviation for "if and only if" is confusing to those not coming
from a background in formal mathematics, and is frequently reported as a
type by developers reading the documentation.
This commit also changes doc comments in internal and private members,
which don't become part of the public documentation, because omitting
"iff" everywhere makes it much easier to check for any later changes
that reintroduce it.
This changed recently so that overflow and underflow consistently return signed
infinity or zero instead of nil. (Previously, overflow returned nil, underflow
returned zero.)
Among other benefits:
* The new behavior distinguishes malformed input (nil) from valid but out-of-range input.
* The new behavior preserves the sign of the input
* The new behavior is consistent with how floating-point parsing behaves in other langauges
Resolves rdar://76728925
Due to an unstable (and undesirable) calling convention in the LLVM layer for x86, I had previously marked Float16 unconditionally unavailable on macOS. My hope was that Intel would stabilize the calling convention and we could make it available on both macOS platforms at the same time. Unfortunately, that hasn't happened, and we want to make the type available for macOS/arm users.
So, I am making the availability mirror Float80--the type will be unavailable for macOS on x86_64, and available on all other platforms (the other x86 platforms don't have a binary-stability guarantee to worry about). This isn't ideal. In particular, if/when the calling conventions for Float16 stabilize in LLVM, we would want to make the type available, but it would then have _different_ availability for different architectures of macOS, which the current availability system is not well-equipped to handle (it's possible, but not very ergonomic). Nonetheless, this seems like the best option.
The good news is that because the full API is already built in Swift (and simply marked unavailable), we can simply add macOS 11.0 availability for these API and it will work.
The constructor `init?(text: Substring)` was more available than its
type Float16 for macOS and macCatalyst where the type is explicitly
unavailable. The compiler may report this as an error in the future.
LLVM doesn't have a stable ABI for Float16 on x86 yet; we're working with Intel to get that fixed, but we don't want to make the type available on macOS until a stable ABI is actually available, because we'd break binaries compiled before any calling convention changes if we do.
* Further refinement of {Float,Double,Float80}.init(_:String)
After talking with @stephentyrone, I found some additional simplifications. No
functional change, just shorter/simpler.
This makes the generic inlineable part a small stub that delegates to the full
non-inlined version.
ABI compatibility:
* We support the same generic init() as before
* _swift_stdlib_strtoXYZ_clocale is still available to
support old inlined code
API addition:
* We now have a public specialized form of init?(_: Substring)
in addition to the generic init?<S:StringProtocol> form.
* Add @available marker to new API
* Support back-deployment to older OSes by inlining the full version
The original version scanned the entire input string for whitespace and
non-ASCII characters. Both are unnecessary: the C routines we're building on
already stop at non-ASCII characters or non-leading whitespace. So we need only
check the first character for whitespace and verify that all characters are
consumed.
This both improves performance and reduces the amount of code that gets inlined into consumers.
Include the initial implementation of _StringGuts, a 2-word
replacement for _LegacyStringCore. 64-bit Darwin supported, 32-bit and
Linux support in subsequent commits.
Cygwin is considered a distinct target with a distinct ABI, environment
conditions, and data types. Though the goal of the project is
native Windows integration with UNIX-likes, that is not compatible with
the idea that the platform can be ignored as Win-like enough to have the
existing os(Windows) condition apply.
- CYGWIN symbol is used to distinguish Cygwin environment from other OS
and other environment in Windows.
- Added windows and windowsCygnus to OSVersion in StdlibUnittest
Update for SE-0107: UnsafeRawPointer
This adds a "mutating" initialize to UnsafePointer to make
Immutable -> Mutable conversions explicit.
These are quick fixes to stdlib, overlays, and test cases that are necessary
in order to remove arbitrary UnsafePointer conversions.
Many cases can be expressed better up by reworking the surrounding
code, but we first need a working starting point.
