Rather than scanning the type descriptor each time we perform a comparison
or hash of a metadata cache entry, do so only once to establish the number
of key parameters and the number of witness tables. Use those values to
more efficiently compare keys.
Metadata uniquing might encounter witness tables that were distinctly
generated but come from identical descriptors. Handle this case in metadata
uniquing be looking into the protocol conformance descriptors themselves.
The conformance cache was caching the witness table for a conformance
`T: P`, where `T` is a concrete type and `P` is a protocol. However, it
essentially picked one of potentially many witness tables for that
conformance, because retroactive conformances might produce different results
from different modules.
Make the conformance cache what is says it is: a cache of the conformance
descriptor for a given `T: P`, potentially filtered by a module (when
requested). Clients of the conformance cache can choose how to interpret
the protocol conformance descriptor, e.g., by instantiating a witness table.
We can bring back a specific conformance cache for swift_conformsToProtocol()
if it is profitable.

Always use mangled type names to represent type metadata in keypath patterns.
For generic types, use the generic environment to pull substituted types
from the instantiation arguments.

Windows does not support weak linking. Use an undocumented linker
feature to provide a default implementation for report_bad_alloc_error
in the case that we are not linking against LLVMSupport.
We should also allow references via manglings just to cover the
general case if we need it, but this is useful on its own so that
we can emit a reference to any natively-declared Swift type.
Rename the funnel points for demangling strings/nodes to metadata to
swift_getTypeByMangled(Name|Node) and make them overridable. This will let
us back-deploy mangling improvements and bug fixes.
Simplify the signature of the internal _getTypeByMangledName() used by the
standard library to what we actually (currently) use. Drop it as a
compatibility override, because it’s not a useful place to introduce
customization.
Clean up the interfaces used to go from a mangled name or demangle tree to
metadata. Parameterize these interfaces for generic parameter substitutions
(already in use) and dependent conformance substitutions (speculative).
When we emit "false" symbolic references to accesors for conformances or
type metadata, ensure that we end up with two-byte-aligned symbolic
references. This addresses a problem with ARM+Thumb compilation where the
low bit wasn't getting set for Thumb code.
Fixes rdar://problem/46067353.
The patched +[NSBundle bundleForClass:] crashes on Nil, while the original Foundation implementation returns the main bundle. Avoid the crash and pass Nil through to Foundation. This also ensures that Nil is passed through to class_getImageName rather than crashing.

Split these two functions into a fast path (for the cached case) and a slow
path. Make the slow path overridable, so we can patch it in the future if
needed.
When we are looking for the specific type for a protocol conformance (e.g.,
because we may have a subclass of the type that declared conformances), don't
go back through swift_conformsToProtocol() multiple times, which
requires more lookups in the global conformance table. Instead, use
the (known) protocol conformance descriptor.
Previously, they would forward their unused spare bits to be used by other multi-payload enums, but
did not implement anything for single-payload extra inhabitants.
The current representation of an associated conformance in a witness
tables (e.g., Iterator: IteratorProtocol within a witness table for
Sequence) is a function that the client calls.
Replace this with something more like what we do for associated types:
an associated conformance is either a pointer to the witness table (once
it is known) or a pointer to a mangled name that describes that
conformance. On first access, demangle the mangled name and replace the
entry with the resulting witness table. This will give us a more compact
representation of associated conformances, as well as always caching
them.
For now, the mangled name is a sham: it’s a mangled relative reference to
the existing witness table accessors, not a true mangled name. In time,
we’ll extend the support here to handle proper mangled names.
Part of rdar://problem/38038799.
Previously, the stdlib provided:
- getters for AnyKeyPath and PartialKeyPath, which have remained;
- a getter for KeyPath, which still exists alongside a new read
coroutine; and
- a pair of owned mutable addressors that provided modify-like behavior
for WritableKeyPath and ReferenceWritableKeyPath, which have been
replaced with modify coroutines and augmented with dedicated setters.
SILGen then uses the most efficient accessor available for the access
it's been asked to do: for example, if it's been asked to produce a
borrowed r-value, it uses the read accessor.
Providing a broad spectrum of accessor functions here seems acceptable
because the code-size hit is fixed-size: we don't need to generate
extra code per storage declaration to support more alternatives for
key paths.
Note that this is just the compiler ABI; the implementation is still
basically what it was. That means the implementation of the setters
and the read accessor is pretty far from optimal. But we can improve
the implementation later; we can't improve the ABI.
The coroutine accessors have to be implemented in C++ and used via
hand-rolled declarations in SILGen because it's not currently possible
to declare independent coroutine accessors in Swift.
Introduce a new runtime entry point, swift_getAssociatedConformanceWitness(),
which extracts an associated conformance witness from a witness table.
Teach IRGen to use this entry point rather than loading the witness
from the witness table and calling it directly.
There’s no advantage to doing this now, but it is staging for changing the
representation of associated conformances in witness tables.
TargetGenericParamRef is a specialized structure used to describe the
subject of a generic requirement, e.g., the “T.Assoc” in “T.Assoc: P”.
Replace it with a mangled name, for several reasons:
1) Mangled type names are also fairly concise, can often be shared, and
are a well-tested path
2) Mangled type names can express any type, which might be useful in the
future
3) This structure doesn’t accommodate specifically stating where the
conformances come from (to extract associated type witnesses). Neither
can mangled names, but we’d like to do that work in only one place.
This change exposed an existing bug where we improperly calculated the
generic parameter counts for extensions of nested generic types. Fix that
bug here (which broke an execution test).
The standard library never ended up needing the low extra inhabitants (<4G on 64-bit Darwin,
<4K elsewhere), so BridgeObject can have the same set of extra inhabitants as the other refcounted
types, allowing `String?????` and `Array??????????` to still use optimized representations.

The “old” mangling that is used for runtime names of @objc protocols
uses a simpler substitution scheme, so you can’t simply take a mangled
name from the new mangling and fix up the ends.
Fixes rdar://problem/45685649.
Silence warnings about deleted defaulted constructors due to the
non-trivial constructor for the atomic type. Guard a conditionally used
function with the appropriate guard.
Right now we expect that every class and protocol has a field
descriptor that tells us if the entity is @objc or not.
For imported types, the descriptor will not exist if we did not
directly emit a field whose concrete type contains the imported
type. For example, in lldb, we might have a generic type whose
runtime substituted type includes an imported type.
In this case, TypeLowering would fail to produce a layout because
it did not find a field descriptor for the imported type.
A better approach is to have the TypeDecoder call a different
factory method for imported types, and handle them specially in
TypeLowering, bypassing the field type metadata altogether.
When checking conformance requirements against an @objc protocol, also
check for an @objc existential using protocol_conformsToProtocol().
