Similarly to how we've always handled parameter types, we
now recursively expand tuples in result types and separately
determine a result convention for each result.
The most important code-generation change here is that
indirect results are now returned separately from each
other and from any direct results. It is generally far
better, when receiving an indirect result, to receive it
as an independent result; the caller is much more likely
to be able to directly receive the result in the address
they want to initialize, rather than having to receive it
in temporary memory and then copy parts of it into the
target.
The most important conceptual change here that clients and
producers of SIL must be aware of is the new distinction
between a SILFunctionType's *parameters* and its *argument
list*. The former is just the formal parameters, derived
purely from the parameter types of the original function;
indirect results are no longer in this list. The latter
includes the indirect result arguments; as always, all
the indirect results strictly precede the parameters.
Apply instructions and entry block arguments follow the
argument list, not the parameter list.
A relatively minor change is that there can now be multiple
direct results, each with its own result convention.
This is a minor change because I've chosen to leave
return instructions as taking a single operand and
apply instructions as producing a single result; when
the type describes multiple results, they are implicitly
bound up in a tuple. It might make sense to split these
up and allow e.g. return instructions to take a list
of operands; however, it's not clear what to do on the
caller side, and this would be a major change that can
be separated out from this already over-large patch.
Unsurprisingly, the most invasive changes here are in
SILGen; this requires substantial reworking of both call
emission and reabstraction. It also proved important
to switch several SILGen operations over to work with
RValue instead of ManagedValue, since otherwise they
would be forced to spuriously "implode" buffers.
* Switch to calling `putchar_unlocked()` instead of `putchar()` for
actual printing. We're already locking stdout with `flockfile()`, so
there's no need for the redundant lock that `putchar()` uses.
* Add an explicit lock to the output stream in `dump()`. This means the
entire dump is printed with the lock held, which will prevent the
output of `dump()` from mixing with prints on other threads.
* Use `_debugPrint_unlocked()` instead of `debugPrint()` in
`_adHocPrint()`. The output stream is already locked while this
function is executing. Rename the function to `_adHocPrint_unlocked()`
to make this explicit.
* Use `targetStream.write()` and `_print_unlocked()` instead of
`print()` in `_dumpObject()`. This removes the redundant locking, and
also eliminates the creation of intermediate strings. Rename the
function to `_dumpObject_unlocked()` to make this explicit.
* Use `targetStream.write()`, `_print_unlocked()`, and
`_debugPrint_unlocked()` in `_dumpSuperclass()`. This removes the
redundant locking, and also eliminates the creation of intermediate
strings. Rename the function to `_dumpSuperclass_unlocked()` to make
this explicit.
* Use `_debugPrint_unlocked()` instead of `debugPrint()` in
`String.init(reflecting:)`. This shouldn't really make much of a
difference but it matches the usage of `_print_unlocked()` in
`String.init(_:)`.
The net result is that all printing is still covered under locks like
before, but stdout is never recursively locked. This should result in
slightly faster printing. In addition, `dump()` is now covered under a
single lock so it can't mix its output with prints from other threads.
This pull request broke the following tests on several build configurations
(eg --preset=buildbot,tools=RA,stdlib=DA)

1_stdlib/ReflectionHashing.swift
1_stdlib/UnsafePointer.swift.gyb
This reverts commit c223a3bf06, reversing
changes made to 5c2bb09b09.
Changes:
- Reverted commit reverting original SR-88 commit
- Removed mirror children helper collections and related code
- Rewrote some tests to keep them working properly
- Wrote two more tests for the three pointer APIs to ensure no crashes if created using a value > Int64.max
This reverts commit 8917eb0e5a.
Jira: SR-88
Changes:
- Removed stdlib type conformances to _Reflectable
- Conformed stdlib types to CustomReflectable, CustomPlaygroundQuickLookable
- Rewrote dump() function to not use _reflect()
- CGRect, CGPoint, CGSize now conform to CustomDebugStringConvertible
- Rewrote unit tests for compatibility with new API
These APIs are from the Swift 1.2 => Swift 2.0 transition, and are not
relevant anymore.
Removing them reduces the surface area of the library that needs to be
reviewed.
This reflects the fact that the attribute's only for compiler-internal use, and isn't really equivalent to C's asm attribute, since it doesn't change the calling convention to be C-compatible.
We don't really need its peculiar behavior characteristics; its uses in the legacy mirror implementations can now be replaced by direct stringification of metatypes.
There's still work left to do. In terms of next steps, there's still rdar://problem/22126141, which covers removing the 'workaround' overloads for print (that prevent bogus overload resolution failures), as well as providing a decent diagnostic when users invoke print with 'appendNewline'.
