When generating a module interface, emit `#if` around any declarations
that are tied to specific, named language features. This allows module
interfaces to be processed by older Swift compilers that do not
support these newer features, such as async/await or actors.
The amount of effort required to correctly handle a new kind of
feature varies somewhat drastically based on the feature itself. The
"simple" case is where a particular declaration can only exist if a
feature is available. For example, and `async` declaration is fairly
easy to handle; a `@_marker` protocol's conformances are not.
Fixes rdar://73326633.
Introduce some basic support for defining specific language features
that can be checked by name, e.g.,
#if $AsyncAwait
// use the feature
#endif
For backward compatibility with older compilers, to actually prevent
the parser from parsing, one will have to do a Swift compiler version
check, even though the version number doesn't matter. For example:
#if compiler(>=5.3) && $AsyncAwait
// use the feature
#endif
When referring to an actor-isolated declaration from outside of the
actor, ensure that the types involved conform to the `ConcurrentValue`
protocol. Otherwise, produce a diagnostic stating that it is unsafe to
pass such types across actors.
Apply the same rule to local captures within concurrent code.
Remove this distinction without a difference. Originally, the thought
was to
1) Isolate the cross-module build infrastructure
2) Provide a signal to the driver that a dependency had swiftdeps info
in it
But the driver need only notice swiftmodule files as external
dependencies and try to extract that information if it can to divine the
signal it needs. Additionally, we can give it fingerprints as priors to
let it know there might be incremental info to be had.
Previously, the name of the entry point function was always main. Here,
a new frontend flag is added to enable an arbitrary name to be
specified.

This follows the design of how we handled this with
sil-verify-all. Specifically, the default behavior is to run only in asserts
builds, but one can use the two flags: enable-ast-verifier and
disable-ast-verifier to override the default behavior.
The reason why this is interesting is that this means that when compiling
normally, we will not run the verifier, so we won't have a perf hit. But we can
now ask the user to run with this flag (or in a future maybe a re-run in the
driver would do this for them), saving us time when screening bugs by avoiding
the need to build an asserts compiler to triage if the ASTVerifier would catch
the bug.
When building with MSVC, this would fail to compile due to the `buffer`
type (`uint8_t [8]`) being treated as `unsigned char *`, which is
expecting to be SFINAE'd to fail find an overload for the hash
combination.
-enable-subst-sil-function-types-for-function-values
-enable-large-loadable-types
These defaulted to on, and there were no corresponding flags for
turning them off, so the flags had no effect.
Access scopes for enforcing exclusivity are currently the only
exception to our ability to canonicalize OSSA lifetime purely based on
the SSA value's known uses. This is because access scopes have
semantics relative to object deinitializers.
In general, deinitializers are asynchronous with respect to code that
is unrelated to the object's uses. Ignoring exclusivity, the optimizer
may always destroy objects as early as it wants, as long as the object
won't be used again. The optimizer may also extend the lifetime
(although in the future this lifetime extension should be limited by
"synchronization points").
The optimizer's freedom is however limited by exclusivity
enforcement. Optimization may never introduce new exclusivity
violations. Destroying an object within an access scope is an
exclusivity violation if the deinitializer accesses the same variable.
To handle this, OSSA canonicalization must detect access scopes that
overlap with the end of the pruned extended lifetime. Essentially:
%def
begin_access // access scope unrelated to def
use %def // pruned liveness ends here
end_access
destroy %def
Support for access scopes composes cleanly with the existing algorithm
without adding significant cost in the usual case. Overlapping access
scopes are unusual. A single CFG walk within the original extended
lifetime is normally sufficient. Only the blocks that are not already
LiveOut in the pruned liveness need to be visited. During this walk,
local overlapping access are detected by scanning for end_access
instructions after the last use point. Global overlapping accesses are
detected by checking NonLocalAccessBlockAnalysis. This avoids scanning
instructions in the common case. NonLocalAccessBlockAnalysis is a
trivial analysis that caches the rare occurence of nonlocal access
scopes. The analysis itself is a single linear scan over the
instruction stream. This analysis can be preserved across most
transformations and I expect it to be used to speed up other
optimizations related to access marker.
When an overlapping access is detected, pruned liveness is simply
extended to include the end_access as a new use point. Extending the
lifetime is iterative, but with each iteration, blocks that are now
marked LiveOut no longer need to be visited. Furthermore, interleaved
accessed scopes are not expected to happen in practice.
This option allows the compiler to retry opening an input file if the previous
opening returns an error of bad file descriptor. Swift-driver will set this
argument in certain circumstances to walk-around such error.

It was originally designed for faster trasmission of syntax trees from
C++ to SwiftSyntax, but superceded by the CLibParseActions. There's no
deserializer for it anymore, so let's just remove it.
This change adds a frontend flag, -verify-additional-file, which can be used to pass extra files directly to the diagnostic verifier. These files are not otherwise considered to be Swift source files; they are not compiled or even properly parsed.
This feature can be used to verify diagnostics emitted in non-source files, such as in module interfaces or header files.
