Generic parameter references, which occur in generic requirement
metadata, were hardcoding associated type indices. Instead, use
relative references to associated type descriptors and perform the
index calculation at runtime.
Associated types can now be reordered resiliently (without relying on
sorting), which is the first main step toward rdar://problem/44167982.
Emit associated type witnesses into resilient conformance tables, so they
can be re-ordered within the protocol without breaking clients. This will
(eventually) permit adding new, defaulted associated types to protocols
resiliently.
The signature of this function pointer was incorrect, because it had not
yet been updated for the metadata request/response architecture. We
were getting lucky (!).
We can use the extra inhabitants of the type metadata field as extra inhabitants of the entire
existential container, allowing `Any?` and similar types to be the same size as non-optional
existentials.
Fix syntactic issues in the swift runtime build from the recent TLS changes.
Move the helper definitions into the TLS stubs rather than emitting them
everywhere. This allows the runtime to build again on Windows.
Use the reserved spelling for the weak attribute. Move the definition into an
implementation file to avoid multiple definitions of the function from being
emitted. PE/COFF does not support weak symbols, however, the runtime will never
link against LLVMSupport, so provide a single, strong definition of the
function. Mark it as hidden visibility so that we do not expose it outside of
the runtime.
Most of this patch is just removing special cases for materializeForSet
or other fairly mechanical replacements. Unfortunately, the rest is
still a fairly big change, and not one that can be easily split apart
because of the quite reasonable reliance on metaprogramming throughout
the compiler. And, of course, there are a bunch of test updates that
have to be sync'ed with the actual change to code-generation.
This is SR-7134.
Previously we would emit class metadata for classes with resilient
ancestry, and relocate it at runtime once the correct size was known.
However most of the fields were blank, so it makes more sense to
construct the metadata from scratch, and store the few bits that we
do need in a true-const pattern where we can use relative pointers.
Similar to the non-resilient case, except we also emit a 'relocation
function'. The class descriptor now contains this relocation function
if the class has resilient ancestry, and the relocation function
calls the runtime's swift_relocateClassMetadata() entry point.
The metadata completion function calls swift_initClassMetadata() and
does layout, just like the non-resilient case.
Fixes <rdar://problem/40810002>.
Now that we don't need the superclass before calling
swift_relocateClassMetadata(), it seems simpler to set it
here instead of doing it in various places in IRGen.
Using the superclass metadata here no longer makes sense with two-phase
init, in case the superclass metadata depends on the class being
instantiated.
It would also be nice to rework the resilient class metadata 'pattern'
to be its own data structure that's true const, instead of just the
prefix of a real class metadata, but for now let's keep the existing
crappy design.
If a class has generic ancestry or resiliently-sized fields, but is
itself not generic and does not have resilient ancestry, we must
perform runtime metadata initialization, but we can initialize
the metadata in-place.
As with generic classes or classes with resilient ancestry, we
copy generic requirements and field offset vectors from the
superclass. We also calculate the layout of the class's direct
fields at runtime.
Unlike the fully resilient case, we don't copy vtable entries
from the superclass, or install the direct class's vtable
entries from the type context descriptor. Instead, we statically
emit the vtable as with fixed-size class metadata.
Both the in-place and resilient case call the same runtime
entry point to initialize class metadata; the new HasStaticVTable
flag in ClassLayoutFlags is used to select between the two
behaviors concerning the vtable.
These functions don't accept local variable heap memory, although the names make it sound like they work on anything. When you try, they mistakenly identify such things as ObjC objects, call through to the equivalent objc_* function, and crash confusingly. This adds Object to the name of each one to make it more clear what they accept.

This saves us some expensive cross-referencing and caching in the runtime, and lets us reclaim the `isReflectable` bit from the context descriptor flags (since a null field descriptor is a suitable and more accurate indicator of whether a type is reflectable).
This allows us to layout-optimize Optional<T> when T is a struct with an
extra-inhabitant-bearing field anywhere in its definition, not only at
the beginning. rdar://problem/43019427
By design, we don't want private or function-nested types to be accessible by mangled name, since they don't have stable identities, and they could inadvertently become ABI if someone serialized a mangled string and expected to deserialize it into a type. Fixes rdar://problem/39826794 .
The token contents doesn't really matter, but it can't start with a digit if it's going to show up in mangled names using identifier grammar. `s/0x/$/` for some 80s flair.
- Instead of keeping multiple flags in the type descriptor flags,
just keep a single flag indicating the presence of additional
import information after the name.
- That import information consists of a sequence of null-terminated
C strings, terminated by an empty string (i.e. by a double null
terminator), each prefixed with a character describing its purpose.
- In addition to the symbol namespace and related entity name,
include the ABI name if it differs from the user-facing name of the
type, and make the name the user-facing Swift name.
There's a remaining issue here that isn't great: we don't correctly
represent the parent relationship between error types and their codes,
and instead we just use the Clang module as the parent. But I'll
leave that for a later commit.
