dealloc_ref [destructor] is the existing behavior. It expects the
reference count to have reached zero and the isDeallocating bit to
be set.
The new [constructor] variant first drops the initial strong
reference.
This allows DI to properly free uninitialized instances in
constructors. Previously this would fail with an assertion if the
runtime was built with debugging enabled.
Progress on <rdar://problem/21991742>.

Unless we can prove that the input and output are layout identical we must use either trivial_bit_cast or bitwise_cast.
This changes the lowering to be more conservative for:
- Builtin.reinterpretCast
- address_to_pointer -> pointer_to_address
This also makes LoadStoreOpts more conservative in:
- forwardAddrToUncheckedCastToLd
In order to commit this without massive performance regressions, I added SILType::canBitCastAsSingleRef. When this is true for both sides
of a bitwise case, we can convert it to a RefBitCast, which has RC identity.
Swift SVN r30172
We need a SIL level unsafe cast that supports arbitrary usage of
UnsafePointer, generalizes Builtin.reinterpretCast, and has the same
semantics on generic vs. nongeneric code. In other words, we need to
be able to promote the cast of an address type to the cast of an
object type without changing semantics, and that cast needs to support
types that are not layout identical.
This patch introduces an unchecked_bitwise_cast instruction for that
purpose. It is different from unsafe_addr_cast, which has been our
fall-back "unknown" cast in the past. With unchecked_bitwise_cast we
cannot assume layout or RC identity. The cast implies a store and
reload of the value to obtain the low order bytes. I know that
bit_cast is just an abbreviation for bitwise_cast, but we use
"bitcast" throught to imply copying a same sized value. No one could
come up with a better name for copying an objects low bytes via:
@addr = alloca $wideTy
store @addr, $wideTy
load @addr, $narrowTy
Followup patches will optimize unchecked_bitwise_cast into more
semantically useful unchecked casts when enough type information is
present. This way, the optimizer will rarely need to be taught about
the bitwise case.

Factor the code to compute an override's vtable type out of SILGen's emitVTableMethod into a method on TypeLowering, and use it to verify the type of class_method instructions. This catches rdar://problem/20874966 at SILGen time instead of letting the devirtualizer barf on it.

Preparation to fix <rdar://problem/18151694> Add Builtin.checkUnique
to avoid lost Array copies.
This adds the following new builtins:
isUnique : <T> (inout T[?]) -> Int1
isUniqueOrPinned : <T> (inout T[?]) -> Int1
These builtins take an inout object reference and return a
boolean. Passing the reference inout forces the optimizer to preserve
a retain distinct from what’s required to maintain lifetime for any of
the reference's source-level copies, because the called function is
allowed to replace the reference, thereby releasing the referent.
Before this change, the API entry points for uniqueness checking
already took an inout reference. However, after full inlining, it was
possible for two source-level variables that reference the same object
to appear to be the same variable from the optimizer's perspective
because an address to the variable was longer taken at the point of
checking uniqueness. Consequently the optimizer could remove
"redundant" copies which were actually needed to implement
copy-on-write semantics. With a builtin, the variable whose reference
is being checked for uniqueness appears mutable at the level of an
individual SIL instruction.
The kind of reference count checking that Builtin.isUnique performs
depends on the argument type:
- Native object types are directly checked by reading the
strong reference count:
(Builtin.NativeObject, known native class reference)
- Objective-C object types require an additional check that the
dynamic object type uses native swift reference counting:
(Builtin.UnknownObject, unknown class reference, class existential)
- Bridged object types allow the dymanic object type check to be
bypassed based on the pointer encoding:
(Builtin.BridgeObject)
Any of the above types may also be wrapped in an optional. If the
static argument type is optional, then a null check is also performed.
Thus, isUnique only returns true for non-null, native swift object
references with a strong reference count of one.
isUniqueOrPinned has the same semantics as isUnique except that it
also returns true if the object is marked pinned regardless of the
reference count. This allows for simultaneous non-structural
modification of multiple subobjects.
In some cases, the standard library can dynamically determine that it
has a native reference even though the static type is a bridge or
unknown object. Unsafe variants of the builtin are available to allow
the additional pointer bit mask and dynamic class lookup to be
bypassed in these cases:
isUnique_native : <T> (inout T[?]) -> Int1
isUniqueOrPinned_native : <T> (inout T[?]) -> Int1
These builtins perform an implicit cast to NativeObject before
checking uniqueness. There’s no way at SIL level to cast the address
of a reference, so we need to encapsulate this operation as part of
the builtin.

reference to something of class type. This is required to model
RebindSelfInConstructorExpr correctly to DI, since in the class case,
self.init and super.init *take* a value out of class box so that it
can pass the +1 value without performing an extra retain. Nothing
else in the compiler uninitializes a DI-controlled memory object
like this, so nothing else needs this. DI really doesn't like something
going from initialized to uninitialized.

We no longer need or use it since we can always refer to the same bit on

Swift SVN r26534
Previously, we were being very conservative and were not trying to look through
any RCId uses. Now we understand how to look through RCIdentical instructions to
pair a pin and unpin. We also understand how to use the new getRCUses API on
RCIdentityAnalysis to get all uses of a value, looking through RCIdentical
instructions.
I also added some code to COWArrayOpts to teach it how to look through enum insts (which I needed).
Additionally I got stuck and added support for automatic indentation in Debug
statements. This is better than having to indent by hand every time.
There were no significant perf changes since this code was not being emitted by
the frontend. But without this +0 self causes COW to break.

This change permits SILGen to make smarter decisions about
block placement by keeping related blocks together instead
of always inserting to the end to the function. The
flipside is that SILGen needs to be somewhat careful to
create blocks in the right order. Counter-intuitively,
that order is the reverse of the order in which the blocks
should be laid out, since blocks created later will be
inserted before blocks created earlier. Note, however,
that this produces the right results for recursive
emission.
To that end, adjust a couple of places in SILGen to
create blocks in properly nested order.
All of the block-order differences in the tests seem
to be desirable; several of them even had confused
comments wondering how on earth a block got injected
where it did.
Also, fix the implementation of SILBuilder::moveBlockTo,
and fix a latent bug in epilogue emission where epilogBB
was erased from its parent (deleting it) and then
queried multiple times (!).

storage for arbitrary values.
A buffer doesn't provide any way to identify the type of
value it stores, and so it cannot be copied, moved, or
destroyed independently; thus it's not available as a
first-class type in Swift, which is why I've labelled
it Unsafe. But it does allow an efficient means of
opaquely preserving information between two cooperating
functions. This will be useful for the adjustments I
need to make to materializeForSet to support safe
addressors.
I considered making this a SIL type category instead,
like $@value_buffer T. This is an attractive idea because
it's generally better-typed. The disadvantages are that:
- it would need its own address_to_pointer equivalents and
- alloc_stack doesn't know what type will be stored in
any particular buffer, so there still needs to be
something opaque.
This representation is a bit gross, but it'll do.

Before this patch there was no dependence visible to the optimizer between a
open_existential and the witness_method allowing the optimizer to reorder the
two instruction. The dependence was implicit in the opened archetype but this
is not a concept model by the SIL optimizer.
%2 = open_existential %0 : $*FooProto to $*@opened("...") FooProto
%3 = witness_method $@opened("...") FooProto,
#FooProto.bar!1 : $@cc(...)
%4 = apply %3<...>(%2)
This patch changes the SIL representation such that witness_methods on opened
archetypes take the open_existential (or the producer of the opened existential)
as an operand preventing the optimizer from reordering them.
%2 = open_existential %0 : $*FooProto to $*@opened("...") FooProto
%3 = witness_method $@opened("...") FooProto,
#FooProto.bar!1,
%2 : $*@opened("...") FooProto : $@cc(...)

This is a type that has ownership of a reference while allowing access to the
spare bits inside the pointer, but which can also safely hold an ObjC tagged pointer
reference (with no spare bits of course). It additionally blesses one
Foundation-coordinated bit with the meaning of "has swift refcounting" in order
to get a faster short-circuit to native refcounting. It supports the following
builtin operations:
- Builtin.castToBridgeObject<T>(ref: T, bits: Builtin.Word) ->
Builtin.BridgeObject
Creates a BridgeObject that contains the bitwise-OR of the bit patterns of
"ref" and "bits". It is the user's responsibility to ensure "bits" doesn't
interfere with the reference identity of the resulting value. In other words,
it is undefined behavior unless:
castReferenceFromBridgeObject(castToBridgeObject(ref, bits)) === ref
This means "bits" must be zero if "ref" is a tagged pointer. If "ref" is a real
object pointer, "bits" must not have any non-spare bits set (unless they're
already set in the pointer value). The native discriminator bit may only be set
if the object is Swift-refcounted.
- Builtin.castReferenceFromBridgeObject<T>(bo: Builtin.BridgeObject) -> T
Extracts the reference from a BridgeObject.
- Builtin.castBitPatternFromBridgeObject(bo: Builtin.BridgeObject) -> Builtin.Word
Presents the bit pattern of a BridgeObject as a Word.
BridgeObject's bits are set up as follows on the various platforms:
i386, armv7:
No ObjC tagged pointers
Swift native refcounting flag bit: 0x0000_0001
Other available spare bits: 0x0000_0002

Modeling builtins as first-class function values doesn't really make sense because there's no real function value to emit, and modeling them this way complicates passes that work with builtins because they have to invent function types for builtin invocations. It's much more straightforward to have a single instruction that references the builtin by ID, along with the type information for the necessary values, type parameters, and results, so add a new "builtin" instruction that directly represents a builtin invocation.
