It is a maintenance burden and having the legacy driver exist in a simplified state reduces the possibility of things going wrong and hitting old bugs.
Although I don't plan to bring over new assertions wholesale
into the current qualification branch, it's entirely possible
that various minor changes in main will use the new assertions;
having this basic support in the release branch will simplify that.
(This is why I'm adding the includes as a separate pass from
rewriting the individual assertions)
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.
The driver can now schedule jobs which typecheck just-emitted module interfaces to ensure that they can be consumed later. This can be enabled manually by passing `-verify-emitted-module-interface` to the driver.
This allows the usage of the whole remark infrastructure developed in
LLVM, which includes a new binary format, metadata in object files, etc.
This gets rid of the YAMLTraits-based remark serialization and does the
plumbing for hooking to LLVM's main remark streamer.
For more about the idea behind LLVM's main remark streamer, see the
docs/Remarks.rst changes in https://reviews.llvm.org/D73676.
The flags are now:
* -save-optimization-record: enable remarks, defaults to YAML
* -save-optimization-record=<format>: enable remarks, use <format> for
serialization
* -save-optimization-record-passes <regex>: only serialize passes that
match <regex>.
The YAMLTraits in swift had a different `flow` setting for the debug
location, resulting in some test changes.
Restructure fine-grained-dependencies to enable unit testing
Get frontend to emit correct swiftdeps file (fine-grained when needed) and only emit dot file for -emit-fine-grained-dependency-sourcefile-dot-files
Use deterministic order for more information outputs.
Set EnableFineGrainedDependencies consistently in frontend.
Tolerate errors that result in null getExtendedNominal()
Fix memory issue by removing node everywhere.
Break up print routine
Be more verbose so it will compile on Linux.
Sort batchable jobs, too.

Two places in Driver are creating temporary files at a point in the
process where failure is not expected. We should do something better
about this, but meanwhile harmonize their failures and include a
little more info.
Filed https://bugs.swift.org/browse/SR-11541 to improve this.
Now that we've moved to C++14, we no longer need the llvm::make_unique
implementation from STLExtras.h. This patch is a mechanical replacement
of (hopefully) all the llvm::make_unique instances in the swift repo.
Add a new action, LoadModuleJobAction, that the driver can use to schedule a
load of a given module before we fan out and invoke the frontend multiple
times. This gives the module interface loader a chance to compile it from a
module interface before we start with parallel invocations, avoiding starting
potentially dozens of redundant compiles of a large module. Start by using this
on the standard library.
Quick fix for rdar://52839445
StringMap always copies its strings into its own storage. A DenseMap
of StringRefs has the same caveats as any other use of StringRef, but
in the cases I've changed the string has very clear ownership that
outlives the map.
No functionality change, but should reduce memory usage and malloc
traffic a little.
