SIL differentiability witnesses are a new top-level SIL construct mapping
"original" SIL functions to derivative SIL functions.
SIL differentiability witnesses have the following components:
- "Original" `SILFunction`.
- SIL linkage.
- Differentiability parameter indices (`IndexSubset`).
- Differentiability result indices (`IndexSubset`).
- Derivative `GenericSignature` representing differentiability generic
requirements (optional).
- JVP derivative `SILFunction` (optional).
- VJP derivative `SILFunction` (optional).
- "Is serialized?" bit.
This patch adds the `SILDifferentiabilityWitness` data structure, with
documentation, parsing, and printing.
Resolves TF-911.
Todos:
- TF-1136: upstream `SILDifferentiabilityWitness` serialization.
- TF-1137: upstream `SILDifferentiabilityWitness` verification.
- TF-1138: upstream `SILDifferentiabilityWitness` SILGen from
`@differentiable` and `@derivative` attributes.
- TF-20: robust mangling for `SILDifferentiabilityWitness` names.
* SILModule::isVisibleExternally utility for VarDecls.
* Fix the SIL parser so it doesn't drop global variable decls.
This information was getting lost in SIL printing/parsing.
Some passes rely on it. Regardless of whether passes should rely on it,
it is totally unacceptable for the SIL passes to have subtle differences
in behavior depending on the frontend mode. So, if we don't want passes
to rely on global variable decls, that needs to be enforced by the API
independent of how the frontend is invoked or how SIL is serialized.
* Use custom DemangleOptions to lookup global variable identifiers.
...finally breaking the dependency of Parse on Sema.
There are still some unfortunate dependencies here -- Xi's working on
getting /AST/ not dependent on Sema -- but this is a step forward.
It is a little strange that parseIntoSourceFile is in ParseSIL, and
therefore that that's still a dependency for anyone trying to, well,
parse. However, nearly all clients that parse want to type-check as
well, and that requires Sema, Serialization, and the ClangImporter...
and Serialization and SIL currently require each other as well
(another circular dependency). So it's not actively causing us trouble
right now.
