We want SILGen to have a simplified view of its executor and know that whenever
one sees an Actor, it is an actual actor instead of a Builtin.Executor. This
just simplifies code. Also, we should eventually have an invariant that
Builtin.Executor should only be allowed in LoweredSIL after LowerHopToExecutor
has run. But that is a change for another day.
Type annotations for instruction operands are omitted, e.g.
```
%3 = struct $S(%1, %2)
```
Operand types are redundant anyway and were only used for sanity checking in the SIL parser.
But: operand types _are_ printed if the definition of the operand value was not printed yet.
This happens:
* if the block with the definition appears after the block where the operand's instruction is located
* if a block or instruction is printed in isolation, e.g. in a debugger
The old behavior can be restored with `-Xllvm -sil-print-types`.
This option is added to many existing test files which check for operand types in their check-lines.
Use the `%target-swift-5.1-abi-triple` substitution to compile the tests for
deployment to the minimum OS versions required for use of _Concurrency APIs,
instead of disabling availability checking.
We've been building up this exponential explosion of task-creation
builtins because it's not currently possible to overload builtins.
As long as all of the operands are scalar, though, it's pretty easy
to peephole optional injections in IRGen, which means we can at
least just use a single builtin in SIL and then break it apart in
IRGen to decide which options to set.
I also eliminated the metadata argument, which can easily be recreated
from the substitutions. I also added proper verification for the builtin,
which required (1) getting `@Sendable` right more consistently and (2)
updating a bunch of tests checking for things that are not actually
valid, like passing a function that returns an Int directly.
Concurrency runtime expects discarding task operation entrypoint
function not to have result type, but the current SILGen
implementation generates reabstraction thunk to convert `() -> Void`
to `() -> T` for the operation function.
Since the `T` is always `Void` for DiscardingTG, the mismatch of result
type expectation does not cause any problem on most platforms, but the
signature mismatch causes a problem on WebAssembly.
This patch introduces new builtin operations for creating discarding
task, which always takes `() -> Void` as the operation function type.
Now that
- owned arguments don't get lexical borrow scopes from SILGen
- owned arguments get lexical moves during inlining unless the value
passed for that argument is already lexical
- guaranteed arguments don't get lexical borrow scopes during inlining
when the value passed for that argument is already lexical
tests involving owned argument emission from SILGen and inlining need to
be updated.
Rather than using group task options constructed from the Swift parts
of the _Concurrency library and passed through `createAsyncTask`'s
options, introduce a separate builtin that always takes a group. Move
the responsibility for creating the options structure into IRGen, so
we don't need to expose the TaskGroupTaskOptionRecord type in Swift.
Introduce a builtin `createAsyncTask` that maps to `swift_task_create`,
and use that for the non-group task creation operations based on the
task-creation flags. `swift_task_create` and the thin function version
`swift_task_create_f` go through the dynamically-replaceable
`swift_task_create_common`, where all of the task creation logic is
present.
While here, move copying of task locals and the initial scheduling of
the task into `swift_task_create_common`, enabling by separate flags.

The immediate desire is to minimize the set of ABI dependencies
on the layout of an ExecutorRef. In addition to that, however,
I wanted to generally reduce the code size impact of an unsafe
continuation since it now requires accessing thread-local state,
and I wanted resumption to not have to create unnecessary type
metadata for the value type just to do the initialization.
Therefore, I've introduced a swift_continuation_init function
which handles the default initialization of a continuation
and returns a reference to the current task. I've also moved
the initialization of the normal continuation result into the
caller (out of the runtime), and I've moved the resumption-side
cmpxchg into the runtime (and prior to the task being enqueued).
Most of the async runtime functions have been changed to not
expect the task and executor to be passed in. When knowing the
task and executor is necessary, there are runtime functions
available to recover them.
The biggest change I had to make to a runtime function signature
was to swift_task_switch, which has been altered to expect to be
passed the context and resumption function instead of requiring
the caller to park the task. This has the pleasant consequence
of allowing the implementation to very quickly turn around when
it recognizes that the current executor is satisfactory. It does
mean that on arm64e we have to sign the continuation function
pointer as an argument and then potentially resign it when
assigning into the task's resume slot.

In their previous form, the non-`_f` variants of these entry points were unused, and IRGen
lowered the `createAsyncTask` builtins to use the `_f` variants with a large amount of caller-side
codegen to manually unpack closure values. Amid all this, it also failed to make anyone responsible
for releasing the closure context after the task completed, causing every task creation to leak.
Redo the `swift_task_create_*` entry points to accept the two words of an async closure value
directly, and unpack the closure to get its invocation entry point and initial context size
inside the runtime. (Also get rid of the non-future `swift_task_create` variant, since it's unused
and it's subtly different in a lot of hairy ways from the future forms. Better to add it later
when it's needed than to have a broken unexercised version now.)
The underlying runtime functions really want to be able to consume the closure being used
to spawn the task, but the implementation was trying to hide this by introducing a retain
at IRGen time, which is not very ARC-optimizer-friendly. Correctly model the builtin operands
as consumed so that the ownership verifier allows them to be taken +1.
The `try await` ordering is both easier to read and indicates the order
of operations better, because the suspension point occurs first and
then one can observe a thrown error.
`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.
