MetadataLookup gives special treatment to imported Objective-C classes,
since there's no nominal type descriptor and metadata is obtained
directly by calling into the Objective-C runtime.
Remote reflection also gives special treatment to imported Objective-C
classes; they don't have field descriptors.
However, the ASTDemangler needs to treat them like ordinary classes,
in particular it wants to preserve the generic arguments here so that
we can round-trip debug info.
If we nest a type inside a local context inside a generic type,
we have to look through the local context(s) to find the outer
generic type when stripping off generic arguments.
We don't support nominal types inside generic local context
right now, but this can happen with type aliases.
Debug info uses a special mangling where type aliases can be
represented without being desugared; attempt to reconstruct
the TypeAliasType in this case.
When we encounter the demangle tree for a bound generic class type, look
through the "Type" node of the child tree before checking whether we
have an Objective-C class name. If we do have an Objective-C class name,
there is no way to preserve the generic arguments, so we ignore them and
return the (non-generic) class type.

New(er) grammar:
// same module as conforming type, or non-unique
protocol-conformance-ref ::= protocol 'HP'
// same module as protocol
protocol-conformance-ref ::= protocol 'Hp'
// retroactive
protocol-conformance-ref ::= protocol module
We don't make use of this distinction anywhere yet, but we could in
the future.
Due to some unfortunate refactoring, protocol-conformance-ref is a
nonterminal in the mangling grammar that doesn't have its own
operator:
```
protocol-conformance-ref ::= protocol module?
```
Both "module" and "protocol" can be an "identifier", which introduces
a mangling collision. Address the mangling collision by using the
operator "HP".

We've been running doxygen with the autobrief option for a couple of
years now. This makes the \brief markers into our comments
redundant. Since they are a visual distraction and we don't want to
encourage more \brief markers in new code either, this patch removes
them all.

Start emitting associated conformance requirement descriptors for
inherited protocols, so we have a symbol to reference from resilient
witness tables and mangled names in the future.
A dynamically replaceable function calls through a global variable that
holds the function pointer.
struct ChainEntry {
void *(funPtr)();
struct ChainEntry *next;
}
ChainEntry dynamicallyReplaceableVar;
void dynamicallyReplaceableFunction() {
dynamicallyReplaceableVar.funPtr()
}
dynamic replacements will be chainable so the global variable also
functions as the root entry in the chain of replacements.
A dynamic replacement functions can call the previous implementation by
going through its chain entry.
ChainEntry chainEntryOf_dynamic_replacement_for_foo;
void dynamic_replacement_for_foo() {
// call the previous (original) implementation.
chainEntryOf_dynamic_replacement_for_foo.funPtr();
}
Introduce complete mangling for references to protocol conformances:
* Mangle requirements of conditional conformances when present.
* Mangle conformance access paths for generic environment-dependent
conformances.
* Abstract protocol conformance references so we can introduce
symbolic references for them.
Right now we expect that every class and protocol has a field
descriptor that tells us if the entity is @objc or not.
For imported types, the descriptor will not exist if we did not
directly emit a field whose concrete type contains the imported
type. For example, in lldb, we might have a generic type whose
runtime substituted type includes an imported type.
In this case, TypeLowering would fail to produce a layout because
it did not find a field descriptor for the imported type.
A better approach is to have the TypeDecoder call a different
factory method for imported types, and handle them specially in
TypeLowering, bypassing the field type metadata altogether.
Add `@autoclosure` to parameter flags associated with
function type metadata, which makes it possible to correctly
round-trip mangled name <-> metadata of function types which
have parameters marked as `@autoclosure`.

Extending the mangling of symbolic references to also include indirect
symbolic references. This allows mangled names to refer to context
descriptors (both type and protocol) not in the current source file.
For now, only permit indirect symbolic references within the current module,
because remote mirrors (among other things) is unable to handle relocations.

@autoclosure is currently represented in mangled names, but the
demangle-to-metadata path did not handle it. Add basic support for it
so we can round-trip.
This function can be queried to find out whether the passed
mangled name is an Objective-C symbol. This will be used
in the debugger to replace an hardcoded check that would
break if the mangling prefix changed.

Default associated conformance accessors will be used in default
witness tables to fill in associated conformances for defaulted
associated types. Add (de|re|)mangling support for them and make them
linking entities in IRGen.
Associated conformance descriptors are aliases that refer to associated
conformance requirements within a protocol descriptor’s list of
requirements. They will be used to provide protocol resilience against
the addition of new associated conformance requirements (which only makes
sense for newly-introduced, defaulted associated types).
When an associated type witness has a default, record that as part of
the protocol and emit a default associated type metadata accessor into the
default witness table. This allows a defaulted associated type to be
added to a protocol resiliently.
This is another part of rdar://problem/44167982, but it’s still very
limiting because the new associated type cannot have any conformances.
Introduce an alias that refers one element prior to the start of a
protocol descriptor’s protocol requirements. This can be subtracted from
an associated type descriptor address to determine the offset of the
associated type accessor within a corresponding witness table. The code
generation for the latter is not yet implemented.
For example:
public struct Mystruct<T> {
func testit<U>(x: T, u: U) {
typealias Myalias = AnyObject
}
}
In this case the Myalias has a generic function as context.
This patch adds SIL-level debug info support for variables whose
static type is rewritten by an optimizer transformation. When a
function is (generic-)specialized or inlined, the static types of
inlined variables my change as they are remapped into the generic
environment of the inlined call site. With this patch all inlined
SILDebugScopes that point to functions with a generic signature are
recursively rewritten to point to clones of the original function with
new unique mangled names. The new mangled names consist of the old
mangled names plus the new substituions, similar (or exactly,
respectively) to how generic specialization is handled.
On libSwiftCore.dylib (x86_64), this yields a 17% increase in unique
source vars and a ~24% increase in variables with a debug location.

The prefab'ed value witness tables for reference storage types are a
premature optimization. Not all scenarios are covered, and those that
are "look suspect" according to John McCall.
The central thrust of this patch is to get these metadata initializations
off of `swift_once` and onto the metadata-request system where we can
properly detect and resolve dependencies. We do this by first introducing
runtime support for resolving metadata requests for "in-place"
initializations (committed previously) and then teaching IRGen to actually
generate code to use them (this patch).
A non-trivial amount of this patch is just renaming and refactoring some of
existing infrastructure that was being used for in-place initializations to
try to avoid unnecessary confusion.
The remaining cases that are still using `swift_once` resolution of
metadata initialization are:
- non-generic classes that can't statically fill their superclass or
have resilient internal layout
- foreign type metadata
Classes require more work because I'd like to switch at least the
resilient-superclass case over to using a pattern much more like what
we do with generic class instantiation. That is, I'd like in-place
initialization to be reserved for classes that actually don't need
relocation.
Foreign metadata should also be updated to the request/dependency scheme
before we declare ABI stability. I'm not sure why foreign metadata
would ever require a type to be resolved, but let's assume it's possible.
