This corresponds to the parameter-passing convention of the Itanium C++
ABI, in which the argument is passed indirectly and possibly modified,
but not destroyed, by the callee.
@in_cxx is handled the same way as @in in callers and @in_guaranteed in
callees. OwnershipModelEliminator emits the call to destroy_addr that is
needed to destroy the argument in the caller.

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)
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.
- SILPackType carries whether the elements are stored directly
in the pack, which we're not currently using in the lowering,
but it's probably something we'll want in the final ABI.
Having this also makes it clear that we're doing the right
thing with substitution and element lowering. I also toyed
with making this a scalar type, which made it necessary in
various places, although eventually I pulled back to the
design where we always use packs as addresses.
- Pack boundaries are a core ABI concept, so the lowering has
to wrap parameter pack expansions up as packs. There are huge
unimplemented holes here where the abstraction pattern will
need to tell us how many elements to gather into the pack,
but a naive approach is good enough to get things off the
ground.
- Pack conventions are related to the existing parameter and
result conventions, but they're different on enough grounds
that they deserve to be separated.
These will never appear in the source language, but can arise
after substitution when the original type is a tuple type with
a pack expansion type.
Two examples:
- original type: (Int, T...), substitution T := {}
- original type: (T...), substitution T := {Int}
We need to model these correctly to maintain invariants.
Callers that previously used to rely on TupleType::get()
returning a ParenType now explicitly check for the one-element
case instead.
IRGen only implements box lowering for single-field boxes at the moment.
We can represent closure contexts that don't capture type info as just
capturing a tuple of the values, so let's do that for now to allow
for initial end-to-end testing of the pass.
- Add a `[reflection]` bit to `alloc_box` instructions, to indicate that a box
should be allocated with reflection metadata attached.
- Add a `@captures_generics` attribute to SILLayouts, to indicate a type layout
that captures the generic arguments it's substituted with, meaning it can
recreate the generic environment without additional ABI-level arguments, like
a generic partial application can.
This will turn `partial_apply` instructions into explicit box construction and
extraction code sequences. To begin with, recognize when a private function
is only used in partial applications and directly modify the function to be
usable as a closure invocation function. This simplifies the lowering in IRGen
and avoids generating a "partial application forwarder" thunk.
