A partial_apply of a function_ref whose body consists of just an
apply of a witness_method can be simplified down to a simple
partial_apply of the witness_method:
sil @foo:
%fn = witness_method ...
%result = apply %fn(...)
return %result
sil @bar:
%fn = function_ref @foo
%closure = partial_apply %fn(...)
===>
sil @bar:
%fn = witness_method ...
%closure = partial_apply %fn(...)
Devirtualizing try_apply modified the CFG, but passes that run
devirtualization were not invalidating any CFG analyses, such as the
domtree.
This could hypothetically have caused miscompilation, but will be
caught by running with -sil-verify-all.

This prepares SIL to be able to more accurately preserve the calling convention of
polymorphic generic interfaces by letting the type system represent "substituted function types".
We add a couple of fields to SILFunctionType to support this:
- A substitution map, accessed by `getSubstitutions()`, which maps the generic signature
of the function to its concrete implementation. This will allow, for instance, a protocol
witness for a requirement of type `<Self: P> (Self, ...) -> ...` for a concrete conforming
type `Foo` to express its type as `<Self: P> (Self, ...) -> ... for <Foo>`, preserving the relation
to the protocol interface without relying on the pile of hacks that is the `witness_method`
protocol.
- A bool for whether the generic signature of the function is "implied" by the substitutions.
If true, the generic signature isn't really part of the calling convention of the function.
This will allow closure types to distinguish a closure being passed to a generic function, like
`<T, U> in (*T, *U) -> T for <Int, String>`, from the concrete type `(*Int, *String) -> Int`,
which will make it easier for us to differentiate the representation of those as types, for
instance by giving them different pointer authentication discriminators to harden arm64e
code.
This patch is currently NFC, it just introduces the new APIs and takes a first pass at updating
code to use them. Much more work will need to be done once we start exercising these new
fields.
This does bifurcate some existing APIs:
- SILFunctionType now has two accessors to get its generic signature.
`getSubstGenericSignature` gets the generic signature that is used to apply its
substitution map, if any. `getInvocationGenericSignature` gets the generic signature
used to invoke the function at apply sites. These differ if the generic signature is
implied.
- SILParameterInfo and SILResultInfo values carry the unsubstituted types of the parameters
and results of the function. They now have two APIs to get that type. `getInterfaceType`
returns the unsubstituted type of the generic interface, and
`getArgumentType`/`getReturnValueType` produce the substituted type that is used at
apply sites.

Update the variable naming conventions to lower-camel.
Run clang-format.
I'm sure I missed some local variables somewhere--this was a best
effort.
The XXOptUtils.h convention is already established and parallels
the SIL/XXUtils convention.
New:
- InstOptUtils.h
- CFGOptUtils.h
- BasicBlockOptUtils.h
- ValueLifetime.h
Removed:
- Local.h
- Two conflicting CFG.h files
This reorganization is helpful before I introduce more
utilities for block cloning similar to SinkAddressProjections.
Move the control flow utilies out of Local.h, which was an
unreadable, unprincipled mess. Rename it to InstOptUtils.h, and
confine it to small APIs for working with individual instructions.
These are the optimizer's additions to /SIL/InstUtils.h.
Rename CFG.h to CFGOptUtils.h and remove the one in /Analysis. Now
there is only SIL/CFG.h, resolving the naming conflict within the
swift project (this has always been a problem for source tools). Limit
this header to low-level APIs for working with branches and CFG edges.
Add BasicBlockOptUtils.h for block level transforms (it makes me sad
that I can't use BBOptUtils.h, but SIL already has
BasicBlockUtils.h). These are larger APIs for cloning or removing
whole blocks.
Structurally prevent a number of common anti-patterns involving generic
signatures by separating the interface into GenericSignature and the
implementation into GenericSignatureBase. In particular, this allows
the comparison operators to be deleted which forces callers to
canonicalize the signature or ask to compare pointers explicitly.
Add `llvm_unreachable` to mark covered switches which MSVC does not
analyze correctly and believes that there exists a path through the
function without a return value.
Where possible, pass around a ClassDecl or a CanType instead of a
SILType that might wrap a metatype; the unwrapping logic was
repeated in several places.
Also add a FIXME for a bug I found by inspection.
This method wasn’t returning the protocol on which the that the witness
method would satisfy, as documented. Rather, it was returning the protocol
to which the `Self` type conforms, which could be completely unrelated. For
example, in IndexingIterator’s conformance to IteratorProtocol, this method
would produce the protocol “Collection”, because that’s where the witness
itself was implemented. However, there isn’t necessarily a single such
protocol, so checking for/returning a single protocol was incorrect.
It turns out that there were only a few SIL verifier assertions of it
(that are trivially true) and two actual uses in code:
(1) The devirtualizer was using this computation to decide when it didn’t
need to perform any additional substitutions, but it’s predicate for doing
so was essentially incorrect. Instead, it really wanted to check whether
the Self type is still a type parameter.
(2) Our polymorphic convention was using it to essentially check whether
the ’Self’ instance type of a witness_method was a GenericTypeParamType,
which we can check directly.

rdar://problem/47772899.
I discovered this due to the mandatory inliner doing devirtualization. I ported
all of the relevant SIL tests to increase code coverage of this code when
ownership is enabled.
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.

The client of this interface naturally expects to get back the
incoming phi value. Ignoring dominance and SIL ownership, the incoming
phi value and the block argument should be substitutable.
This method was actually returning the incoming operand for
checked_cast and switch_enum terminators, which is deeply misleading
and has been the source of bugs.
If the client wants to peek though casts, and enums, it should do so
explicitly. getSingleTerminatorOperand[s]() will do just that.
In order to make this reasonable, I needed to shift responsibilities
around a little; the devirtualization operation is now responsible for
replacing uses of the original apply. I wanted to remove the
phase-separation completely, but there was optimization-remark code
relying on the old apply site not having been deleted yet.
The begin_apply aspects of this aren't testable independently of
replacing materializeForSet because coroutines are currently never
called indirectly.

The class_method being devirtualized might be OK for most call sites, i.e. we are allowed to devirtualize it, however, the caller itself might have been marked with inlinable
The devirtualizer performs two optimizations:
- If a value is known to have an exact class type, ie it is the result of an alloc_ref, we can devirtualize calls of *non-final* methods, because we know we’re calling that specific method and not an override.
- If a method is known to be “effectively final” (it is not open, and there are no overrides inside the module) we can devirtualize it.
However the second optimization needs to be disabled if a function is inlinable (F->getResilienceExpansion() == ResilienceExpansion::Minimal).
We don't have a way to represent a cast in SIL where the destination
type introduces new archetypes that depend on the input value, sort
of like opening an existential.
Previously we would only rule out the case where the class itself
was generic, but a class can also be nested inside another generic
context.
Fixes <rdar://problem/35478838>.
This commit is mostly refactoring.
*) Introduce a new OptimizationMode enum and use that in SILOptions and IRGenOptions
*) Allow the optimization mode also be specified for specific SILFunctions. This is not used in this commit yet and thus still a NFC.
Also, fixes a minor bug: we didn’t run mandatory IRGen passes for functions with @_semantics("optimize.sil.never")
Except GenericEnvironment.h, because you can't meaningfully use a
GenericEnvironment without its signature. Lots less depends on
GenericSignature.h now. NFC
This replaces the '[volatile]' flag. Now, class_method and
super_method are only used for vtable dispatch.
The witness_method instruction is still overloaded for use
with both ObjC protocol requirements and Swift protocol
requirements; the next step is to make it only mean the
latter, also using objc_method for ObjC protocol calls.
