inlining, generic/closure specialization, and devirtualization optimization passes.
SILFunction::canBeInlinedIntoCaller now exlicitly requires a caller's SerializedKind_t arg.
isAnySerialized() is added as a convenience function that checks if [serialized] or [serialized_for_pkg].

[serialized_for_package] if Package CMO is enabled. The latter kind
allows a function to be serialized even if it contains loadable types,
if Package CMO is enabled. Renamed IsSerialized_t as SerializedKind_t.
The tri-state serialization kind requires validating inlinability
depending on the serialization kinds of callee vs caller; e.g. if the
callee is [serialized_for_package], the caller must be _not_ [serialized].
Renamed `hasValidLinkageForFragileInline` as `canBeInlinedIntoCaller`
that takes in its caller's SerializedKind as an argument. Another argument
`assumeFragileCaller` is also added to ensure that the calle sites of
this function know the caller is serialized unless it's called for SIL
inlining optimization passes.
The [serialized_for_package] attribute is allowed for SIL function, global var,
v-table, and witness-table.

At Onone, many types of functions (anything user written, compiler
generated setters and getters, etc), should be kept in the final
binary so they're accessible by the debugger.

* add `GlobalVariable.staticInitializerInstructions` to access all initializer instructions of a global
* implement `GlobalVariable.staticInitValue` with `GlobalVariable.staticInitializerInstructions`
* this requires that `InstructionList.reversed()` works without accessing the parent block of the iterator instruction
* allow `Context.erase(instruction:)` to delete instructions from a global's initializer list, which means to handle the case where a deleted instruction has no parent function.
Before this change, if a global variable is required to be statically initialized (e.g. due to @_section attribute), we don't allow its type to be a struct, only a scalar type works. This change improves on that by teaching MandatoryPerformanceOptimizations pass to inline struct initializer calls into initializer of globals, as long as they are simple enough so that we can be sure that we don't trigger recursive/infinite inlining.
Reformatting everything now that we have `llvm` namespaces. I've
separated this from the main commit to help manage merge-conflicts and
for making it a bit easier to read the mega-patch.
This is phase-1 of switching from llvm::Optional to std::optional in the
next rebranch. llvm::Optional was removed from upstream LLVM, so we need
to migrate off rather soon. On Darwin, std::optional, and llvm::Optional
have the same layout, so we don't need to be as concerned about ABI
beyond the name mangling. `llvm::Optional` is only returned from one
function in
```
getStandardTypeSubst(StringRef TypeName,
bool allowConcurrencyManglings);
```
It's the return value, so it should not impact the mangling of the
function, and the layout is the same as `std::optional`, so it should be
mostly okay. This function doesn't appear to have users, and the ABI was
already broken 2 years ago for concurrency and no one seemed to notice
so this should be "okay".
I'm doing the migration incrementally so that folks working on main can
cherry-pick back to the release/5.9 branch. Once 5.9 is done and locked
away, then we can go through and finish the replacement. Since `None`
and `Optional` show up in contexts where they are not `llvm::None` and
`llvm::Optional`, I'm preparing the work now by going through and
removing the namespace unwrapping and making the `llvm` namespace
explicit. This should make it fairly mechanical to go through and
replace llvm::Optional with std::optional, and llvm::None with
std::nullopt. It's also a change that can be brought onto the
release/5.9 with minimal impact. This should be an NFC change.
* Add @_used and @_section attributes for global variables and top-level functions
This adds:
- @_used attribute that flags as a global variable or a top-level function as
"do not dead-strip" via llvm.used, roughly the equivalent of
__attribute__((used)) in C/C++.
- @_section("...") attribute that places a global variable or a top-level
function into a section with that name, roughly the equivalent of
__attribute__((section("..."))) in C/C++.
This is the initial version of a buildable SIL definition in libswift.
It defines an initial set of SIL classes, like Function, BasicBlock, Instruction, Argument, and a few instruction classes.
The interface between C++ and SIL is a bridging layer, implemented in C.
It contains all the required bridging data structures used to access various SIL data structures.
When an instruction is "deleted" from the SIL, it is put into the SILModule::scheduledForDeletion list.
The instructions in this list are eventually deleted for real in SILModule::flushDeletedInsts(), which is called by the pass manager after each pass run.
In other words: instruction deletion is deferred to the end of a pass.
This avoids dangling instruction pointers within the run of a pass and in analysis caches.
Note that the analysis invalidation mechanism ensures that analysis caches are invalidated before flushDeletedInsts().
It makes sense to to this in a single pass, because there might be dead cycles for globals and functions, e.g. if a global references a function in its static initializer and the function references that global.
Another improvement: eliminate dead global-initializers. Before we had an explicit SIL representation of statically initialized globals, we had to keep them alive.

In the new string implementation there is a subtract of a (small) constant from the literal pointer. We convert
((ptr - offset) | bits
to
(ptr + (bits - offset))
which can still be represented as a relocation.
* Teach findAccessedStorage about global addressors.
AccessedStorage now properly represents access to global variables, even if they
haven't been fully optimized down to global_addr instructions.
This is essential for optimizing dynamic exclusivity checks. As a
verified SIL property, all access to globals and class properties
needs to be identifiable.
* Add stronger SILVerifier support for formal access.
Ensure that all formal access follows recognizable patterns
at all points in the SIL pipeline.
This is important to run acccess enforcement optimization late in the pipeline.
* SILModule::isVisibleExternally utility for VarDecls.
* Fix the SIL parser so it doesn't drop global variable decls.
This information was getting lost in SIL printing/parsing.
Some passes rely on it. Regardless of whether passes should rely on it,
it is totally unacceptable for the SIL passes to have subtle differences
in behavior depending on the frontend mode. So, if we don't want passes
to rely on global variable decls, that needs to be enforced by the API
independent of how the frontend is invoked or how SIL is serialized.
* Use custom DemangleOptions to lookup global variable identifiers.
* SILGlobalVariable utilities.
Move the utilities that are required for recognizing SILGlobalVariable access
into SILGlobalVariable.[h|cpp].
Structural SIL properties that are assumed by the optimizer, and thus required
for SIL verification, should never be embedded in SILOptimizer passes, or even
in SILOptimizer/Utils. Structural SIL properties need to be defined in
/SIL. They are as much part of the SIL language as the opcode list.
These particular utilities are required for working with SILGlobalVariables, and
will be used by a whole-module access enforcement optimization.
The primary API for recognizing SIL globals is `getVariableOfGlobalInit`. It is
required to find the association between the addressor SILFunction marked
[global_init], and the SILGlobalVariable being addressed.
Other helper APIs expose more details about the addressor's SIL patterns and are
useful for transforming the initializer itself into an optimized form.
The main part of the change is to support the ptr_to_int builtin in statically initialized globals. This builtin is used to build a StaticString from a string_literal.
On the other hand I removed the support of the FPTrunc builtin, which is not needed anyway (because it can be constant propagated).
This commit contains:
-) adding the new instructions + infrastructure, like parsing, printing, etc.
-) support in IRGen to generate global object-variables (i.e. "heap" objects) which are statically initialized in the data section.
-) IRGen for global_value which lazily initializes the object header and returns a reference to the object.
For details see the documentation of the new instructions in SIL.rst.
Static initializers are now represented by a list of literal and aggregate instructions in a SILGlobalVariable.
For details see SIL.rst.
This representation is cleaner than what we did so far (point to the initializer function and do some pattern matching).
One implication of that change is that now (a subset of) instructions not necessarily have a parent function.
Regarding the generated code it's a NFC.
Also the swift module format didn't change because so far we don't serializer global variables.
Also, add a third [serializable] state for functions whose bodies we
*can* serialize, but only do so if they're referenced from another
serialized function.
This will be used for bodies synthesized for imported definitions,
such as init(rawValue:), etc, and various thunks, but for now this
change is NFC.
A lot of files transitively include Expr.h, because it was
included from SILInstruction.h, SILLocation.h and SILDeclRef.h.
However in reality most of these files don't do anything
with Exprs, especially not anything in IRGen or the SILOptimizer.
Now we're down to 171 files in the frontend which depend on
Expr.h, which is still a lot but much better than before.
Previously, we had hacks in place to eagerly emit everything in
the global ExternalDefinitions list. These can now be removed,
at least at the IRGen layer.
This flag is required for performing the propagation of global and static "let" values into their uses.
Let variables have now a [let] attribute in the SIL textual form.

This is necessary for correctly dealing with non-standard
ownership conventions in secondary positions, and it should
also help with non-injective type imports (like BOOL/_Bool).
But right now we aren't doing much with it.

Now the SILLinkage for functions and global variables is according to the swift visibility (private, internal or public).
In addition, the fact whether a function or global variable is considered as fragile, is kept in a separate flag at SIL level.
Previously the linkage was used for this (e.g. no inlining of less visible functions to more visible functions). But it had no effect,
because everything was public anyway.
For now this isFragile-flag is set for public transparent functions and for everything if a module is compiled with -sil-serialize-all,
i.e. for the stdlib.
For details see <rdar://problem/18201785> Set SILLinkage correctly and better handling of fragile functions.
The benefits of this change are:
*) Enable to eliminate unused private and internal functions
*) It should be possible now to use private in the stdlib
*) The symbol linkage is as one would expect (previously almost all symbols were public).
More details:
Specializations from fragile functions (e.g. from the stdlib) now get linkonce_odr,default
linkage instead of linkonce_odr,hidden, i.e. they have public visibility.
The reason is: if such a function is called from another fragile function (in the same module),
then it has to be visible from a third module, in case the fragile caller is inlined but not
the specialized function.
I had to update lots of test files, because many CHECK-LABEL lines include the linkage, which has changed.
The -sil-serialize-all option is now handled at SILGen and not at the Serializer.
This means that test files in sil format which are compiled with -sil-serialize-all
must have the [fragile] attribute set for all functions and globals.
The -disable-access-control option doesn't help anymore if the accessed module is not compiled
with -sil-serialize-all, because the linker will complain about unresolved symbols.
A final note: I tried to consider all the implications of this change, but it's not a low-risk change.
If you have any comments, please let me know.
