LLVM r356789 changed the format of textual IR to print nameless
blocks with labels instead of comments with "; <label>". Adjust Swift
tests to match. I also updated the utils/viewcfg script to match.
The bulk of the changes are to SILGenApply. As we must now evaluate the
payload ArgumentSource to an RValue, we follow the example of subscripts
and lie to the argument emitter. This evaluates arguments at +1 which
can lead to slightly worse codegen at -Onone.
This is essentially a long-belated follow-up to Arnold's #12606.
The key observation here is that the enum-tag-single-payload witnesses
are strictly more powerful than the XI witnesses: you can simulate
the XI witnesses by using an extra case count that's <= the XI count.
Of course the result is less efficient than the XI witnesses, but
that's less important than overall code size, and we can work on
fast-paths for that.
The extra inhabitant count is stored in a 32-bit field (always present)
following the ValueWitnessFlags, which now occupy a fixed 32 bits.
This inflates non-XI VWTs on 32-bit targets by a word, but the net effect
on XI VWTs is to shrink them by two words, which is likely to be the
more important change. Also, being able to access the XI count directly
should be a nice win.
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).
Previously, when a tuple type had non-fixed layout, we would compute
a layout by building the metadata for that tuple type and then
extracting the layout from the VWT. This can be quite expensive
because it involves constructing the exact metadata for types like
arrays and functions despite those types being fixed-layout across
all instantiations. It also tends to cause unnecessary recursive-type
issues, especially with enums where tuples are currently used to model
cases with mutliple payloads. Since we just need a layout, computing
it directly from element layouts instead of constructing metadata for
the formal type lets us take advantage of all the other fast paths for
layout construction, e.g. for fixed types and single-field aggregates.
This is a good improvement overall, but it also serves to alleviate
some of the problems of rdar://40810002 / SR-7876 in a way that
might be suitable for integration to 4.2.
The central thrust of this patch is to get these metadata initializations
off of `swift_once` and onto the metadata-request system where we can
properly detect and resolve dependencies. We do this by first introducing
runtime support for resolving metadata requests for "in-place"
initializations (committed previously) and then teaching IRGen to actually
generate code to use them (this patch).
A non-trivial amount of this patch is just renaming and refactoring some of
existing infrastructure that was being used for in-place initializations to
try to avoid unnecessary confusion.
The remaining cases that are still using `swift_once` resolution of
metadata initialization are:
- non-generic classes that can't statically fill their superclass or
have resilient internal layout
- foreign type metadata
Classes require more work because I'd like to switch at least the
resilient-superclass case over to using a pattern much more like what
we do with generic class instantiation. That is, I'd like in-place
initialization to be reserved for classes that actually don't need
relocation.
Foreign metadata should also be updated to the request/dependency scheme
before we declare ABI stability. I'm not sure why foreign metadata
would ever require a type to be resolved, but let's assume it's possible.
Fixes part of SR-7876.
And update the existential container's initializeWithTake implementation
in the runtime. After only allowing bitwise takable values in the
inline buffer we can use memcpy to move existential container values.

This adds the dllstorage annotations on the tests. This first pass gets
most of the IRGen tests passing on Windows (though has dependencies on
other changes). However, this allows for the changes to be merged more
easily as we cannot regress other platforms here.
I am going to leave in the infrastructure around this just in case. But there is
no reason to keep this in the tests themselves. I can always just revert this
and I don't think merge conflicts are likely due to previous work I did around
the tooling for this.
"Formally non-resilient" in this new world means "the enum has a fixed
representation", which implies a fixed layout algorithm. We're not
there yet, but non-exhaustive enums should be able to be fixed-layout
as well by picking a general representation that won't need to grow.
Specifically, that's enums with raw types, and possibly also indirect
enums as well.
(It's likely the '_fixed_layout' /attribute/ on enums will go away,
but the concept of a fixed-layout enum is still useful.)
This includes global generic and non-generic global access
functions, protocol associated type access functions,
swift_getGenericMetadata, and generic type completion functions.
The main part of this change is that the functions now need to take
a MetadataRequest and return a MetadataResponse, which is capable
of expressing that the request can fail. The state of the returned
metadata is reported as an second, independent return value; this
allows the caller to easily check the possibility of failure without
having to mask it out from the returned metadata pointer, as well
as allowing it to be easily ignored.
Also, change metadata access functions to use swiftcc to ensure that
this return value is indeed returned in two separate registers.
Also, change protocol associated conformance access functions to use
swiftcc. This isn't really related, but for some reason it snuck in.
Since it's clearly the right thing to do, and since I really didn't
want to retroactively tease that back out from all the rest of the
test changes, I've left it in.
Also, change generic metadata access functions to either pass all
the generic arguments directly or pass them all indirectly. I don't
know how we ended up with the hybrid approach. I needed to change all
the code-generation and calls here anyway in order to pass the request
parameter, and I figured I might as well change the ABI to something
sensible.
* Remove RegisterPreservingCC. It was unused.
* Remove DefaultCC from the runtime. The distinction between C_CC and DefaultCC
was unused and inconsistently applied. Separate C_CC and DefaultCC are
still present in the compiler.
* Remove function pointer indirection from runtime functions except those
that are used by Instruments. The remaining Instruments interface is
expected to change later due to function pointer liability.
* Remove swift_rt_ wrappers. Function pointers are an ABI liability that we
don't want, and there are better ways to get nonlazy binding if we need it.
The fully custom wrappers were only needed for RegisterPreservingCC and
for optimizing the Instruments function pointers.
- Create the value witness table as a separate global object instead
of concatenating it to the metadata pattern.
- Always pass the metadata to the runtime and let the runtime handle
instantiating or modifying the value witness table.
- Pass the right layout algorithm version to the runtime; currently
this is always "Swift 5".
- Create a runtime function to instantiate single-case enums.
Among other things, this makes the copying of the VWT, and any
modifications of it, explicit and in the runtime, which is more
future-proof.
We no longer need this for anything, so remove it from metadata
altogether. This simplifies logic for emitting type metadata and
makes type metadata smaller.
We still pass the parent metadata pointer to type constructors;
removing that is a separate change.
