Tool selection is primarily done by checking the executable (= symlink) name.
But sometimes (e.g. if the tool symlink is not there) it's useful to have an option for selecting the tool.
The selection option (e.g. -sil-opt) must be the first argument of swift-frontend.
This converts the instances of the pattern for which we have a proper
substitution in lit. This will make it easier to replace it
appropriately with Windows equivalents.
introduce a common superclass, SILNode.
This is in preparation for allowing instructions to have multiple
results. It is also a somewhat more elegant representation for
instructions that have zero results. Instructions that are known
to have exactly one result inherit from a class, SingleValueInstruction,
that subclasses both ValueBase and SILInstruction. Some care must be
taken when working with SILNode pointers and testing for equality;
please see the comment on SILNode for more information.
A number of SIL passes needed to be updated in order to handle this
new distinction between SIL values and SIL instructions.
Note that the SIL parser is now stricter about not trying to assign
a result value from an instruction (like 'return' or 'strong_retain')
that does not produce any.
This will allow for modules to be split from the command line using a script.
The one thing that is missing from this still is that it does not handle shared
functions in IMO a satisfactory way. Given that we are splitting a module, my
feeling that the correct way to do this is to create a public shim for the
shared function in the module that the shared function gets put in and let all
other users use that entry point.
But I need to think about this a bit more.
