Update for SE-0107: UnsafeRawPointer
This adds a "mutating" initialize to UnsafePointer to make
Immutable -> Mutable conversions explicit.
These are quick fixes to stdlib, overlays, and test cases that are necessary
in order to remove arbitrary UnsafePointer conversions.
Many cases can be expressed better up by reworking the surrounding
code, but we first need a working starting point.
As proposed by SE-0107: UnsafeRawPointer:
https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposals/0107-unsaferawpointer.md#cstring-conversion
Adds String.init(cString: UnsafePointer<UInt8>)
Adds String.nulTerminatedUTF8CString: ContiguousArray<CChar>
This is necessary for eliminating UnsafePointer conversion. Such
conversion is extremely common for interoperability between Swift
strings and C strings to bridge the difference between CChar and
UTF8.CodeUnit. The standard library does not provide any convenient
utilities for converting between the differently typed
buffers. These APIs will handle the simplest cases involving C
interoperability. More convenience can be added later.
This adds the swiftMSVCRT module which is similar in spirit to swiftGlibc and
swiftDarwin, exposing the Microsoft C Runtime library to swift. Furthermore,
disable pieces of the standard library which are not immediately trivially
portable to Windows. A lot of this functionality can still be implemented and
exposed to the user, however, this is the quickest means to a PoC for native
windows support.
As a temporary solution, add a -DCYGWIN flag to indicate that we are building
for the cygwin windows target. This allows us to continue supporting the cygwin
environment whilst making the windows port work natively against the windows
environment (msvc). Eventually, that will hopefully be replaced with an
environment check in swift.
Support building SwiftPrivateLibcExtras for a number of targets simultaneously.
This will enable cross-compiling the standard library for multiple foreign
targets.
As a first step to allowing the build script to build *only*
static library versions of the stdlib, change `add_swift_library`
such that callers must pass in `SHARED`, `STATIC`, or `OBJECT_LIBRARY`.
Ideally, only these flags would be used to determine whether to
build shared, static, or object libraries, but that is not currently
the case -- `add_swift_library` also checks whether the library
`IS_STDLIB` before performing certain additional actions. This will be
cleaned up in a future commit.
Due to a modeling error in the type checker's folding of type
references into type expressions, code such as "strideof(Int)" would
be accepted without the required ".self". Commit
4a60b6cbf4 fixes the modeling issue but
left the historical accepts-invalid; now, diagnose these cases with a
warning + Fix-It to ease the transition.
Fixes SR-899.
The general rule here is that something needs to be SWIFT_CC(swift)
if it's just declared in Swift code using _silgen_name, as opposed to
importing something via a header.
Of course, SWIFT_CC(swift) expands to nothing by default for now, and
I haven't made an effort yet to add the indirect-result / context
parameter ABI attributes. This is just a best-effort first pass.
I also took the opportunity to shift a few files to just implement
their shims header and to demote a few things to be private stdlib
interfaces.
This is a squash of the following commits:
* [SE-0054] Import function pointer arg, return types, typedefs as optional
IUOs are only allowed on function decl arguments and return types, so
don't import typedefs or function pointer args or return types as IUO.
* [SE-0054] Only allow IUOs in function arg and result type.
When validating a TypeRepr, raise a diagnostic if an IUO is found
anywhere other thn the top level or as a function parameter or return
tpye.
* [SE-0054] Disable inference of IUOs by default
When considering a constraint of the form '$T1 is convertible to T!',
generate potential bindings 'T' and 'T?' for $T1, but not 'T!'. This
prevents variables without explicit type information from ending up with
IUO type. It also prevents implicit instantiation of functions and types
with IUO type arguments.
* [SE-0054] Remove the -disable-infer-iuos flag.
* Add nonnull annotations to ObjectiveCTests.h in benchmark suite.
This adds an Android target for the stdlib. It is also the first
example of cross-compiling outside of Darwin.

The Android variant of Swift may be built using the following `build-script`
invocation:
```
$ utils/build-script \
-R \ # Build in ReleaseAssert mode.
--android \ # Build for Android.
--android-ndk ~/android-ndk-r10e \ # Path to an Android NDK.
--android-ndk-version 21 \
--android-icu-uc ~/libicu-android/armeabi-v7a/libicuuc.so \
--android-icu-uc-include ~/libicu-android/armeabi-v7a/icu/source/common \
--android-icu-i18n ~/libicu-android/armeabi-v7a/libicui18n.so \
--android-icu-i18n-include ~/libicu-android/armeabi-v7a/icu/source/i18n/
```
Android builds have the following dependencies, as can be seen in
the build script invocation:
1. An Android NDK of version 21 or greater, available to download
here: http://developer.android.com/ndk/downloads/index.html.
2. A libicu compatible with android-armv7.
Implements SE-0055: https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposals/0055-optional-unsafe-pointers.md
- Add NULL as an extra inhabitant of Builtin.RawPointer (currently
hardcoded to 0 rather than being target-dependent).
- Import non-object pointers as Optional/IUO when nullable/null_unspecified
(like everything else).
- Change the type checker's *-to-pointer conversions to handle a layer of
optional.
- Use 'AutoreleasingUnsafeMutablePointer<NSError?>?' as the type of error
parameters exported to Objective-C.
- Drop NilLiteralConvertible conformance for all pointer types.
- Update the standard library and then all the tests.
I've decided to leave this commit only updating existing tests; any new
tests will come in the following commits. (That may mean some additional
implementation work to follow.)
The other major piece that's missing here is migration. I'm hoping we get
a lot of that with Swift 1.1's work for optional object references, but
I still need to investigate.
SwiftPrivateDarwinExtras is used by non-Darwin platforms as well; its
name is misleading. Rename it to SwiftPrivateLibcExtras, which is
closer to its actual function.
