Now that we've moved to C++14, we no longer need the llvm::make_unique
implementation from STLExtras.h. This patch is a mechanical replacement
of (hopefully) all the llvm::make_unique instances in the swift repo.
I also thought I was fixing a performance issue by changing
invalidateFunction not to /insert/ new entries into the map, but
I guess those entries were present in practice. So this is just
a cleanup to make ownership easier.
Generally in the SIL/SILOptimizer libraries we have been putting kinds in the
swift namespace, not a nested scope in a type in swift (see ValueKind as an
example of this).
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 patch fixes a number of issues:
The analysis was using EpilogueARCContext as a temporary when computing. This is
an performance problem since EpilogueARCContext contains all of the memory used
in the analysis. So essentially, we were mallocing tons of memory every time we
missed the analyses cache. This patch changes the pass to instead have 1
EpilogueARCContext whose internal state is cleared in between invocations. Since
the data structures (see below) used after this patch do not shrink memory after
being cleared, this should cause us to have far less memory churn.
The analysis was managing its block state data structure by allocating the
individual block state structs using a BumpPtrAllocator/DenseMap stored in
EpilogueARCContext. The individual state structures were allocated from the
BumpPtrAllocator and the DenseMap then mapped a specific SILBasicBlock to its
State data structure. Ignoring that we were mallocing this memory every time we
computed rather than reusing global state, this pessimizes performance on small
functions significantly. This is because the BumpPtrAllocator by default heap
allocates initially a page and DenseMap initially mallocs a 64 entry hash
table. Thus for a 1 block function, we would be allocating a large amount of
memory that is just unneeded.
Instead this patch changes the analysis to use a std::vector in combination with
PostOrderFunctionInfo to manage the per block state. The way this works is that
PostOrderFunctionInfo already contains a map from a SILBasicBlock to its post
order number. So, when we are allocating memory for each block, we visit the CFG
in post order. Thus we know that each block's state will be stored in the vector
at vector[post order number].
This has a number of nice effects:
1. By eliminating the need for the DenseMap, in large test cases, we are
signficiantly reducing the memory overhead (by 24 bytes per basic block assuming
8 byte ptrs).
2. We will use far less memory when applying this analysis to small functions.

By using this the maybeGet API on FunctionAnalysisBase instead of get, we stop
EpilogueARCAnalysis from building itself if it does not yet exist, only to
invalidate itself.

Replace `NameOfType foo = dyn_cast<NameOfType>(bar)` with DRY version `auto foo = dyn_cast<NameOfType>(bar)`.
The DRY auto version is by far the dominant form already used in the repo, so this PR merely brings the exceptional cases (redundant repetition form) in line with the dominant form (auto form).
See the [C++ Core Guidelines](https://github.com/isocpp/CppCoreGuidelines/blob/master/CppCoreGuidelines.md#es11-use-auto-to-avoid-redundant-repetition-of-type-names) for a general discussion on why to use `auto` to avoid redundant repetition of type names.
It makes sense to turn the new epilogue retain/release matcher to an Analysis.
Its currently a data flow with an entry API point. This saves on compilation time,
even though it does not seem to be very expensive right now. But it is a iterative
data flow which could be expensive with large CFGs.
