This is used for synthetic uses like _ = x that do not act as a true use but
instead only suppress unused variable warnings. This patch just adds the
instruction.
Eventually, we can use it to move the unused variable warning from Sema to SIL
slimmming the type checker down a little bit... but for now I am using it so
that other diagnostic passes can have a SIL instruction (with SIL location) so
that we can emit diagnostics on code like _ = x. Today we just do not emit
anything at all for that case so a diagnostic SIL pass would not see any
instruction that it could emit a diagnostic upon. In the next patch of this
series, I am going to add SILGen support to do that.
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.
Find all the usages of `--enable-experimental-feature` or
`--enable-upcoming-feature` in the tests and replace some of the
`REQUIRES: asserts` to use `REQUIRES: swift-feature-Foo` instead, which
should correctly apply to depending on the asserts/noasserts mode of the
toolchain for each feature.
Remove some comments that talked about enabling asserts since they don't
apply anymore (but I might had miss some).
All this was done with an automated script, so some formatting weirdness
might happen, but I hope I fixed most of those.
There might be some tests that were `REQUIRES: asserts` that might run
in `noasserts` toolchains now. This will normally be because their
feature went from experimental to upcoming/base and the tests were not
updated.
I am adding this instruction to express artificially that two non-Sendable
values should be part of the same region. It is meant to be used in cases where
due to unsafe code using Sendable, we stop propagating a non-Sendable dependency
that needs to be made in the same region of a use of said Sendable value. I
included an example in ./docs/SIL.rst of where this comes up with @out results
of continuations.
For now this will only be used for HopToMainActorIfNeeded thunks. I am creating
this now since in the past there has only been one option for creating
thunks... to create the thunk in SILGen using SILGenThunk. This code is hard to
test and there is a lot of it. By using an instruction here we get a few benefits:
1. We decouple SILGen from needing to generate new kinds of thunks. This means
that SILGenThunk does not need to expand to handle more thunks.
2. All thunks implemented via ThunkInst will be easy to test in a decoupled way
with SIL tests.
3. Even though this stabilizes the patient, we still have many thunks in SILGen
and various parts of the compiler. Over time, we can swap to this model,
allowing us to hopefully eventually delete SILGenThunk.
It indicates that the value's lifetime continues to at least this point.
The boundary formed by all consuming uses together with these
instructions will encompass all uses of the value.
In preparation for inserting mark_dependence instructions for lifetime
dependencies early, immediately after SILGen. That will simplify the
implementation of borrowed arguments.
Marking them unresolved is needed to make OSSA verification
conservative until lifetime dependence diagnostics runs.
The dependent 'value' may be marked 'nonescaping', which guarantees that the
lifetime dependence is statically enforceable. In this case, the compiler
must be able to follow all values forwarded from the dependent 'value', and
recognize all final (non-forwarded, non-escaping) use points. This implies
that `findPointerEscape` is false. A diagnostic pass checks that the
incoming SIL to verify that these use points are all initially within the
'base' lifetime. Regular 'mark_dependence' semantics ensure that
optimizations cannot violate the lifetime dependence after diagnostics.
This commit just introduces the instruction. In a subsequent commit, I am going
to add support to SILGen to emit this. This ensures that when we assign into a
tuple var we initialize it with one instruction instead of doing it in pieces.
The problem with doing it in pieces is that when one is emitting diagnostics it
looks semantically like SILGen actually is emitting code for initializing in
pieces which could be an error.
Just the $*T -> $*@moveOnly T variant for addresses. Unlike the object version
this acts like a cast rather than something that provides semantics from the
frontend to the optimizer.
The reason why I am using a different instruction for addresses and objects here
is that the object checker doesnt have to deal with things like initialization.
This is in preparation for wiring up debug info support for noncopyable
values. Originally this flag name made sense since it was set when we performed
consume operator checking. Now I am going to use it for noncopyable types as
well. I think the new name uses_moveable_value_debuginfo actually describes what
the flag is supposed to do, tell IRGen that the value may be moved since it
needs to use moveable value debug info emission.
This is exactly like copy_addr except that it is not viewed from the verifiers
perspective as an "invalid" copy of a move only value. It is intended to be used
in two contexts:
1. When the move checker emits a diagnostic since it could not eliminate a copy,
we still need to produce valid SIL without copy_addr on move only types since we
will hit canonical SIL eventually even if we don't actually codegen the SIL. The
pass can just convert said copy_addr to explicit_copy_addr and everyone is
happy.
2. To implement the explicit copy function for address only types.
The main effect of this will be that in IRGen we will use llvm.dbg.addr instead
of llvm.dbg.declare. We must do this since llvm.dbg.declare implies that the
given address is valid throughout the program.
This just adds the instructions/printing/parsing/serialization/deserialization.

The new flag will be used to track whether a move_value corresponds to a
source-level lexical scope. Here, the flag is just added to the
instruction and represented in textual and serialized SIL.
This is a signal to the move value kill analysis that this is a move that should
have diagnostics emitted for it. It is a temporary addition until we add
MoveOnly to the SIL type system.
This is a new instruction that can be used by SILGen to perform a semantic move
in between two entities that are considered separate variables at the AST
level. I am going to use it to implement an experimental borrow checker.
This PR contains the following:
1. I define move_value, setup parsing, printing, serializing, deserializing,
cloning, and filled in all of the visitors as appropriate.
2. I added createMoveValue and emitMoveValueOperation SILBuilder
APIs. createMoveValue always creates a move and asserts is passed a trivial
type. emitMoveValueOperation in contrast, will short circuit if passed a
trivial value and just return the trivial value.
3. I added IRGen tests to show that we can push this through the entire system.
This is all just scaffolding for the instruction to live in SIL land and as of
this PR doesn't actually do anything.
If the '[poison]' flag is set, then all references within this debug
value will be overwritten with a sentinel at this point in the
program. This is used in debug builds when shortening non-trivial
value lifetimes to ensure the debugger cannot inspect invalid
memory. `debug_value` instructions with the poison flag are not
generated until OSSA islowered. They are not expected to be serialized
within the module, and the pipeline is not expected to do any
significant code motion after lowering.
This provides a singular instruction for convert an unmanaged value to a ref,
then strong_retain it. I expanded the definition of UNCHECKED_REF_STORAGE to
include these copy like instructions. This instruction is valid in all SIL.
The reason why I am adding this instruction is that currently when we emit an
access to an unowned (unsafe) ivar, we use an unmanaged_to_ref and a strong
retain. This can look to the optimizer like a strong retain that can potentially
be optimized. By combining the two together into a new instruction, we can avoid
this potential problem since the pattern matching will break.
This is how we originally controlled whether or not we printed out ownership
annotations when we printed SIL. Since then, I have changed (a few months ago I
believe) the ownership model eliminator to know how to eliminate these
annotations from the SIL itself. So this hack can be removed.
As an additional benefit, this will let me rename -enable-sil-ownership to
-enable-sil-ownership-verifier. This will I hope eliminate confusion around this
option in the short term while I am preparing to work on semantic sil again.

This was in the first high level ARC instruction proposal, but I have not needed
it until now. The use case for this is to ahandle strong_retain_unowned (which
takes in an unowned value, asserts it is still alive, performs a strong_retain,
and returns the @owned value). This @owned value needs a destroy_value.
