This action is currently just an alias of the `-resolve-imports` action.
However, it's named to more clearly reflect the purpose which is to do the
minimal typechecking needed in order to emit the requested outputs. This mode
is intended to improve performance when emitting `.swiftinterface` and `.tbd`
files.
When `-warn-on-potentially-unavailable-enum-case` was introduced, the build
system was required to invoke `swift-frontend` at artificially low deployment
targets when emitting `.swiftinterface` files for legacy architectures. Because
the deployment target was low, some availability diagnostics needed to be
de-fanged in order to allow module interface emission to succeed. Today, the
build system is able to use the correct deployment target when emitting module
interfaces and the `-warn-on-potentially-unavailable-enum-case` is superfluous,
so deprecate it.

Frontend options should only be printed under `swift-module-flags-ignored:`
temporarily to prevent condfails for older development compilers that are still
in use (as a rule of thumb, swiftinterfaces should be compatible with compilers
that are up to 6 months old). None of the frontend flags that are currently
categorized as "ignorable" need to be ignorable anymore.
Instead of the code querying the compiler's built-in Clang instance, refactor the
dependency scanner to explicitly keep track of module output path. It is still
set according to '-module-cache-path' as it has been prior to this change, but
now the scanner can use a different module cache for scanning PCMs, as specified
with '-clang-scanner-module-cache-path', without affecting module output path.

Clang dependency scanning produces scanner PCMs which we may want to live in a
different filesystem location than the main build module cache.

Ensure that we process `-libc` in `swift-symbolgraph-extract` and
`swift-api-extract`. This option is used by Windows to determine the C
ABI to use and thus impacts the ABI exposed by the ClangImporter to the
Swift interface. This partially enables the use of
`swift package dump-symbol-graph` on Windows.
Allow `-typecheck-module-from-interface` using explicit module instead
of building implicit module.
This setups swift-frontend to accept explicit module build arguments and
loading explicit module during verifying. SwiftDriver needs to setup
correct arguments including the output path for swift module to fully
enable explicit module interface check.
Rename `-enable-cas` to `-compile-cache-job` to align with clang option
names and promote that to a new driver only flag.
Few other additions to driver flag for caching behaviors:
* `-compile-cache-remarks`: now cache hit/miss remarks are guarded behind
this flag
* `-compile-cache-skip`: skip replaying from the cache. Useful as a
debugging tool to do the compilation using CAS inputs even the output
is a hit from the cache.
- Renames ExperimentalPlatformCCallingConvention to
PlatformCCallingConvention.
- Removes non-arm calling convention support as this feature is working
around a clang bug for some arm triples which we hope to see resolved.
- Removes misleading MetaVarName from platform-c-calling-convention
argument.
- Replaces other uses of LLVM::CallingConv::C with
IGM.getOptions().PlatformCCallingConvention().
Adds a new swift-frontend flag to allow users to choose which calling
convention is used to make c function calls. This hidden flag is called
`-experimental-platform-c-calling-convention`.
This behavior is needed to workaround rdar://109431863 (Swift-frontend
produces trapping llvm ir for non-trapping sil). The root cause of this
issue is that IRGen always emits c function calls with llvm's default C
calling convention. However clang may select a different (incompatible)
calling convention for the function, eventually resulting--via
InstCombine and SimplifyCFG--in a trap instead of the function call.
This failure mode is most readily seen with the triple
`armv7em-apple-none-macho` when attempting to call functions taking
struct arguments. Example unoptimized ir below:
```llvm-ir
call void @bar([4 x i32] %17, i32 2), !dbg !109
...
define internal arm_aapcs_vfpcc void @bar(
[4 x i32] %bar.coerce, i32 noundef %x)
```
In the future it would be better to use the clang importer or some other
tool to determine the calling convention for each function instead of
setting the calling convention frontend invocation wide.
Note: I don't know for sure whether or not clang should be explicitly
annotating these functions with a calling convention instead of
aliasing C to mean ARM_AAPCS_VFP for this particular combination of
`-target`, `-mfloat-abi`, and `-mcpu`.
'load-plugin-library', 'load-plugin-executable', '-plugin-path' and
'-external-plugin-path' should be searched in the order they are
specified in the arguments.
Previously, for example '-plugin-path' used to precede
'-external-plugin-path' regardless of the position in the arguments.
Teach swift dependency scanner to use CAS to capture the full dependencies for a build and construct build commands with immutable inputs from CAS.
This allows swift compilation caching using CAS.
Intro a deserialization mode controlled by the flag
`-experimental-force-workaround-broken-modules` to attempt unsafe
recovery from deserialization failures caused by project issues.
The one issue handled at this time is when a type moves from one module
to another. With this new mode the compiler may be able to pick a
matching type in a different module. This is risky to use, but may help
in a pinch for a client to fix and issue in a library over which they
have no control.
Deserialization recovery silently drops errors and the affected decls.
This can lead to surprises when a function from an imported module
simply disappears without an explanation.
This commit introduces the flag -Rmodule-recovery to report as remarks
some of these previously silently dropped issues. It can be used to
debug project configuration issues.
Instead of being a part of 'directDependencies' on a module dependency info, make them a separate array of dependency IDs for Swift Source and Textual modules.
This will allow clients to still distinguish direct module dependencies imported from a given module, versus dependencies added because direct/transitive Clang module dependencies have Swift overlays.
This change does *not* remove overlay dependencies from 'directDependencies' yet, just adds them as a separate field on the module details info. A followup change will remove overlay and bridging header dependencies from 'directDependencies' once the clients have had a chance to adopt to this change.
Teach swift compiler about CAS to allow compiler caching in the future.
1) Add flags to initiate CAS inside swift-frontend
2) Teach swift to compile using a CAS file system.
