This is used for synthetic uses like _ = x that do not act as a true use but
instead only suppress unused variable warnings. This patch just adds the
instruction.
Eventually, we can use it to move the unused variable warning from Sema to SIL
slimmming the type checker down a little bit... but for now I am using it so
that other diagnostic passes can have a SIL instruction (with SIL location) so
that we can emit diagnostics on code like _ = x. Today we just do not emit
anything at all for that case so a diagnostic SIL pass would not see any
instruction that it could emit a diagnostic upon. In the next patch of this
series, I am going to add SILGen support to do that.
The issue here is that the demangler (since we have a postfix mangling) parses
parameters/results/etc and then uses earlier postfix type arguments to attach
the relevant types to the parameters/results/etc. Since the flag for a sending
result was placed in between the parameters and results, we get an off by one
error.
Rather than fix that specific issue by introducing an offset for the off by one
error, I used the fact that the impl-function part of the mangling is not ABI
and can be modified to move the bit used to signify a sending result to before
the parameters so the whole problem is avoided.
I also while I was doing this looked through the sending result mangling for any
further issues and fixed them as I found them.

Fixes the immediate problem, but the presence of demangling code in the
runtime means that we'll need a follow-up to fix the compiler so that it
doesn't try to use the demangler to materialize metadata for function types
that have both isolation and a sending result.

With a focus on updating the documentation of Ownership SSA.
The main changes are:
* Created a new directory `docs/SIL` and moved all SIL-related files into this directory.
* Converted `rst` files to markdown.
* Extracted sections from `SIL.md` which go into very much detail - including the instruction reference - into separate files: `Types.md`, `Ownership.md`, `FunctionAttributes.md`, `Instructions.md`. Those files are referenced from `SIL.md` at the relevant places.
* Rewrote and updated the OSSA part in `SIL.md`
* Removed a few sections, which are not relevant anymore, like "Value dependency" (which is replaced by ownership concepts).
* Fixed and improved a lot of small things.
Add a new bits/ header to the Android overlay, include runtime libraries that are
auto-extracted and listed many times to the list of libraries to be de-duplicated,
enable a C++ interop test that's working again, and update the doc with new
libraries that need to be available to run a simple executable.
This is a tool specifically designed to generate
Xcode projects for the Swift repo (as well as a
couple of adjacent repos such as LLVM and Clang).
It aims to provide a much more user-friendly experience
than the CMake Xcode generation (`build-script --xcode`).
I am adding this instruction to express artificially that two non-Sendable
values should be part of the same region. It is meant to be used in cases where
due to unsafe code using Sendable, we stop propagating a non-Sendable dependency
that needs to be made in the same region of a use of said Sendable value. I
included an example in ./docs/SIL.rst of where this comes up with @out results
of continuations.
Today ParenType is used:
1. As the type of ParenExpr
2. As the payload type of an unlabeled single
associated value enum case (and the type of
ParenPattern).
3. As the type for an `(X)` TypeRepr
For 1, this leads to some odd behavior, e.g the
type of `(5.0 * 5).squareRoot()` is `(Double)`. For
2, we should be checking the arity of the enum case
constructor parameters and the presence of
ParenPattern respectively. Eventually we ought to
consider replacing Paren/TuplePattern with a
PatternList node, similar to ArgumentList.
3 is one case where it could be argued that there's
some utility in preserving the sugar of the type
that the user wrote. However it's really not clear
to me that this is particularly desirable since a
bunch of diagnostic logic is already stripping
ParenTypes. In cases where we care about how the
type was written in source, we really ought to be
consulting the TypeRepr.
`Builtin.FixedArray<let N: Int, T: ~Copyable & ~Escapable>` has the layout of `N` elements of type `T` laid out
sequentially in memory (with the tail padding of every element occupied by the array). This provides a primitive
on which the standard library `Vector` type can be built.
When its operand has coroutine kind `yield_once_2`, a `begin_apply`
instruction produces an additional value representing the storage
allocated by the callee. This storage must be deallocated by a
`dealloc_stack` on every path out of the function. Like any other stack
allocation, it must obey stack discipline.
For now this will only be used for HopToMainActorIfNeeded thunks. I am creating
this now since in the past there has only been one option for creating
thunks... to create the thunk in SILGen using SILGenThunk. This code is hard to
test and there is a lot of it. By using an instruction here we get a few benefits:
1. We decouple SILGen from needing to generate new kinds of thunks. This means
that SILGenThunk does not need to expand to handle more thunks.
2. All thunks implemented via ThunkInst will be easy to test in a decoupled way
with SIL tests.
3. Even though this stabilizes the patient, we still have many thunks in SILGen
and various parts of the compiler. Over time, we can swap to this model,
allowing us to hopefully eventually delete SILGenThunk.
This makes ManagedBuffer available and usable in Embedded Swift, by:
- Removing an internal consistency check from ManagedBuffer that relies on metatypes.
- Making the .create() API transparent (to hoist the metatype to the callee).
- Adding a AllocRefDynamicInst simplification to convert `alloc_ref_dynamic` to `alloc_ref`, which removes a metatype use.
- Adding tests for the above.
This removes the implementation of the `swift-indent` tool, its
associated documentation, and utilities. This tool was never completed
and has much better alternatives with `swift-format` which is more
flexible and actually maintained.
