Non-escapable struct definitions often have inicidental integer fields that are
unrelated to lifetime. Without an explicit initializer, the compiler would infer
these fields to be borrowed by the implicit intializer.
struct CountedSpan: ~Escapable {
let span: Span<Int>
let i: Int
/* infer: @lifetime(copy span, borrow i) init(...) */
}
This was done because
- we always want to infer lifetimes of synthesized code if possible
- inferring a borrow dependence is always conservative
But this was the wrong decision because it inevitabely results in lifetime
diagnostic errors elsewhere in the code that can't be tracked down at the use
site:
let span = CountedSpan(span: span, i: 3) // ERROR: span depends on the lifetime of this value
Instead, force the author of the data type to specify whether the type actually
depends on trivial fields or not. Such as:
struct CountedSpan: ~Escapable {
let span: Span<Int>
let i: Int
@lifetime(copy span) init(...) { ... }
}
This fix enables stricter diagnostics, so we need it in 6.2.

My change 983b75e1cf broke
-warn-long-expression-type-checking because now the
ExpressionTimer is not instantiated by default and that
entire code path is skipped.
Change it so that if -warn-long-expression-type-checking
is passed in, we still start the timer, we just don't
ever consider it to have 'expired'.

This is a common mistake made more common be suggestions of existing diagnostic
that tell users not to use a 'copy' dependency.
Report a diagnostic error rather than crashing the compiler. Fix the diagnostic
output to make sense relative to the source location.
Fixes rdar://154136015 ([nonescapable] compiler assertion with @_lifetime(x: inout x))
Correctly diagnose this as:
"invalid use of inout dependence on the same inout parameter
@_lifetime(a: &a)
func f_inout_useless(a: inout MutableRawSpan) {}
Correctly diagnose this as:
"lifetime-dependent parameter must be 'inout'":
@_lifetime(a: borrow a)
func f_inout_useless(a: borrowing MutableRawSpan) {}
This comes up often when passing a MutableSpan as an 'inout' argument. The
vague diagnostic was causing developers to attempt incorrect @_lifetime
annotations. Be clear about why the annotation is needed and which annotation
should be used.
This flag was not experimental for any good reason; it should always be
enabled. The flag only exists so we can introduce a new API:
UnsafeMutablePointer.mutableSpan. Supported compilers cannot handle the new API.

'@preconcurrency' imports open up memory safety holes with respect to
Sendable, which are diagnosed under strict memory safety + strict
concurrency checking. Allow one to write '@unsafe' on those imports to
silence the diagnostic about it.
If `LinkEntity::isTypeKind()` is true, `IRGenModule::getAddrOfLLVMVariable` assumes that we can safely call
`LinkEntity::getType()`, which does `reinterpret_cast` of `LinkEntity::Pointer` to `TypeBase *`. However, for SIL
differentiability witness, the pointer has `SILDifferentiabilityWitness *` type, which is not derived from `TypeBase`. So, such a cast is not allowed.
Just as with `ProtocolWitnessTableLazyAccessFunction` and `ProtocolWitnessTableLazyCacheVariable` link entity kinds (which are also type kinds), we should use `SecondaryPointer` instead of `Pointer` for storing payload here, while setting `Pointer` to `nullptr`.
While this made sense in the distant past where the scanning service provided backing storage for the dependency cache, it no longer does so and now makes for awkard layering where clients get at the service via the cache. Now the cache is a simple data structure while all the clients that need access to the scanning service will get it explicitly.
- 'SwiftModuleScanner' will now be owned directly by the 'ModuleDependencyScanningWorker' and will contain all the necessary custom logic, instead of being instantiated by the module interface loader for each query
- Moves ownership over module output path and sdk module output path directly into the scanning worker, instead of the cache
To guard the new UnsafeMutablePointer.mutableSpan APIs.
This allows older compilers to ignore the new APIs. Otherwise, the type checker
will crash on the synthesized _read accessor for a non-Escapable type:
error: cannot infer lifetime dependence on the '_read' accessor because 'self'
is BitwiseCopyable, specify '@lifetime(borrow self)'
I don't know why the _read is synthesized in these cases, but apparently it's
always been that way.

This pass replaces `alloc_box` with `alloc_stack` if the box is not escaping.
The original implementation had some limitations. It could not handle cases of local functions which are called multiple times or even recursively, e.g.
```
public func foo() -> Int {
var i = 1
func localFunction() { i += 1 }
localFunction()
localFunction()
return i
}
```
The new implementation (done in Swift) fixes this problem with a new algorithm.
It's not only more powerful, but also simpler: the new pass has less than half lines of code than the old pass.
The pass is invoked in the mandatory pipeline and later in the optimizer pipeline.
The new implementation provides a module-pass for the mandatory pipeline (whereas the "regular" pass is a function pass).
This is required because the mandatory pass needs to remove originals of specialized closures, which cannot be done from a function-pass.
In the old implementation this was done with a hack by adding a semantic attribute and deleting the function later in the pipeline.
I still kept the sources of the old pass for being able to bootstrap the compiler without a host compiler.
