Lower metatype types as @thin or @thick based on whether the type is static and whether the abstraction pattern allows for a thin metatype. Add a '@thick' attribute and require SIL metatypes to always be annotated with either '@thin' or '@thick' to distinguish them from unlowered metatypes.
Swift SVN r11525
Because of abstraction difference, unitary metatype types may still need a non-empty representation in positions where they substitute an archetype metatype. Borrow the '@thin' attribute to make empty metatype types explicit, so that we will be able to handle them correctly with respect to abstraction changes.

Remove the initialize_var instruction now that DI fully diagnoses initialization problems. Change String-to-NSString bridging to explicitly invoke String's default constructor; it was the last remaining user of initialize_var. Remove dead code to emit an implicit default constructor without a body.

a FuncDecl. This makes it much more straight-forward for SIL passes to
introduce a new one - without doing name lookup in the builtin module!

(the same way alloc_box returns two) instead of returning a tuple.
This eliminates a ton of tuple_extract instructions, which just
bloat the generated SIL. This resolves rdar://15378135.

I tried hard find all references to 'func' in documentation, comments and
diagnostics, but I am sure that I missed a few. If you find something, please

- Change type attribute printing logic (in astprinter and the demangler)
to print in the new syntax
- Change the swift parser to only accept type attributes in the new syntax.
- Update canParseTypeTupleBody to lookahead over new-syntax type attributes.
- Update the testsuite to use the new syntax.

1) on decls, they say the decl is weak/unowned.
2) in sil mode, on types, they indicate that the type has weak/unowned storage.
Since these are different things, split the SIL type attributes out to new
attributes (sil_weak/sil_unowned) to crystalize the relationship.

Pull the implicit 'Self' associated type out of the protocol and into
an implicitly-declared generic parameter list for the protocol. This
makes all of the methods of a protocol polymorphic, e.g., given
protocol P {
typealias Assoc
func getAssoc() -> Assoc
}
the type of P.getAssoc is:
<Self : P> (self : @inout P) -> () -> Self.Assoc
This directly expresses the notion that protocol methods are
polymorphic, even though 'Self' is always implicitly bound. It can be
used to simplify IRgen and some parts of the type checker, as well as
laying more of the groundwork for default definitions within
protocols as well as sundry other improvements to the generics
system.
There are a number of moving parts that needed to be updated in tandem
for this. In no particular order:
- Protocols always get an implicit generic parameter list, with a
single generic parameter 'Self' that conforms to the protocol itself.
- The 'Self' archetype type now knows which protocol it is
associated with (since we can no longer point it at the Self
associated type declaration).
- Protocol methods now get interface types (i.e., canonicalizable
dependent function types).
- The "all archetypes" list for a polymorphic function type does not
include the Self archetype nor its nested types, because they are
handled implicitly. This avoids the need to rework IRGen's handling
of archetypes for now.
- When (de-)serializing a XREF for a function type that has an
interface type, use the canonicalized interface type, which can be
meaningfully compared during deserialization (unlike the
PolymorphicFunctionType we'd otherwise be dealing with).
- Added a SIL-specific type attribute @sil_self, which extracts the
'Self' archetype of a protocol, because we can no longer refer to
the associated type "P.Self".

Replace the existing suite of checked cast instructions with:
- unconditional_checked_cast, which performs an unconditional cast that aborts on failure (like the former downcast unconditional); and
- checked_cast_br, which performs a conditional pass and branches on whether the cast succeeds, passing the result to the true branch as an argument.
Both instructions take a CheckedCastKind that discriminates the different casting modes formerly discriminated by instruction type. This eliminates a source of null references in SIL and eliminates null SIL addresses completely.

Doug pointed out that 'isObjC' incorrectly excludes C functions, for which we'll also need to be able to independently reference Swift and foreign entries.
Swift SVN r8669
This mirrors the behavior of project_existential and simplifies some special cases in SILGen. It unfortunately makes dynamic_lookup sequences a bit noisier because of the need to explicitly cast the projection from DynamicLookup.Self to Builtin.ObjCPointer, but I think this modeling is more solid and will fit better with my planned redesign of archetype_method/protocol_method.
Swift SVN r8572
entire aggregates at once.
This has three worth effects:
- It significantly decreases the amount of SIL required
for these operations.
- It makes it far easier for IR-gen to choose efficient
patterns of destruction, e.g. calling a single entrypoint
or recognizing that it can just use the runtime 'release'
entrypoints.
- It makes it easier to recognize and optimize aggregate
copy/destroy operations.
It does make SROA-like tasks a bit more challenging. The
intent is to give TypeLowering a way to expand these into
their primitive behavior.

Lazily-generated currying thunks will require the same IR-level linkonce_odr linkage as clang thunks currently do, so generalize the name of the existing SIL-level linkage specifier 'clang_thunk'.
Swift SVN r8122
ObjC methods are already tagged with a special calling convention and have special IRGen handling to keep the _cmd argument abstracted away from SIL. We can use the CC to also abstract away the detail that Swift methods pass 'self' last but ObjC methods pass 'self' first. This eliminates a weird special case from SIL's perspective, and also means that 'partial_apply' can work on objc methods correctly without becoming significantly more complex.
Swift SVN r8091
The dynamic_method_br instruction branches depending on whether a
particular object can accept a given message, as determined at
runtime. If the object can accept the message, it branches to the
first basic block, providing the uncurried method as the BB
argument. If the object cannot accept the message, it branches to the
second basic block. Either way, the result is packaged up into an
optional type and passed along to the continuation block, which
provides the optional result.
Note that this instruction is restricted to lookup of Objective-C
methods.
Documentation and IR generation (via -respondsToSelector) to
follow. Review greatly appreciated!

This was not likely an error-free change. Where you see problems
please correct them. This went through a fairly tedious audit
before committing, but comments might have been changed incorrectly,
not changed at all, etc.

This is was a very mechanical patch where I basically first renamed SILNodes.def
and then just kept fixing things until everything compiled, so even though it is
large patch I feel ok(ish) with committing it.
If anyone has any concerns/etc, please email me and I will revert in 1 second.

Because union layout may interleave tag bits with payload data, we need to be able to efficiently inject and remove tag bits from an address-only union in-place. To do this, we'll model address-only union initialization by projecting out the data address (union_data_addr) and storing to it, then overlaying the tag bits (inject_union_addr). To dispatch and project out the data, we'll use a destructive_switch_union_addr instruction that clears any tag bits in-place necessary to give a valid data address.
Swift SVN r7589
The instruction represents constructing a loadable union given a case and the data for that case, which will let us emit union constructor functions in SIL instead of IRGen (rdar://problem/14773182).
