Commit the platform definition and build script work necessary to
cross-compile for arm64_32.
arm64_32 is a variant of AARCH64 that supports an ILP32 architecture.
malloc introspection is a platform feature that is unavailable on
OpenBSD. There is no workaround for the feature, so we have to assume
that allocations succeed in allocating exactly the amount of memory
requested, and nothing more.
Here a new mallocSize shim is introduced so the feature check for malloc
introspection is pushed to the shims, rather than using os checks
directly from Swift. Not every use of malloc_size has been converted
yet; ManagedBuffer.swift still remains. However, this module requires
special care to fix, which will be done separately.
Round up our malloc requests and assert that breadcrumbs are aligned
and where we think they should be. This is necessary because ASAN
doesn't give us pointer-rounded sizes.
We have (and important!) assertion that our claimed allocation is
complete and the breadcrumbs are falling where we expect them
to. Something about ASAN changes the allocation behavior. Temporarily
disable this assertion until I can figure how to work with ASAN here.
* Don't allocate breadrumbs pointer if under threshold
* Increase breadrumbs threshold
* Linear 16-byte bucketing until 128 bytes, malloc_size after
* Allow cap less than _SmallString.capacity (bridging non-ASCII)
This change decreases the amount of heap usage for moderate-length
strings (< 64 UTF-8 code units in length) and increases the amount of
spare code unit capacity available (less growth needed).
Average improvements for moderate-length strings:
* 64-bit: on average, 8 bytes saved and 4 bytes of extra capacity
* 32-bit: on average, 4 bytes saved and 6 bytes of extra capacity
Additionally, on 32-bit, large-length strings also gain an average of
6 bytes of extra spare capacity.
Details:
On 64-bit, half of moderate-length allocations will save 16 bytes
while the other half get an extra 8 bytes of spare capacity.
On 32-bit, a quarter of moderate-length allocations will save 16
bytes, and the rest get an extra 4 bytes of spare
capacity. Additionally, 32-bit string's storage class now claims its
full allocation, which is its birthright. Prior to this change, we'd
have on average 1.5 bytes of spare capacity, and now we have 7.5 bytes
of spare capacity.
Breadcrumbs threshold is increased from the super-conservative 32 to
the pretty-conservative 64. Some speed improvements are incorporated
in this change, but more are in flight. Even without those eventual
improvements, this is a worthwhile change (ASCII is still fast-pathed
and irrelevant to breadcrumbing).
For a complex real-world workload, this amounts to around a 5%
improvement to transient heap usage due to all strings and a 4%
improvement to peak heap usage due to all strings. For moderate-length
strings specifically, this gives around 11% improvement to both.
One additional tweak (setting the scalar-aligned bit on foreign indices) had to be made to avoid a performance regression for long non-ASCII foreign strings.
Old Swift and new Swift runtimes and overlays need to coexist in the same process. This means there must not be any classes which have the same ObjC runtime name in old and new, because the ObjC runtime doesn't like name collisions.
When possible without breaking source compatibility, classes were renamed in Swift, which results in a different ObjC name.
Public classes were renamed only on the ObjC side using the @_objcRuntimeName attribute.
This is similar to the work done in pull request #19295. That only renamed @objc classes. This renames all of the others, since even pure Swift classes still get an ObjC name.

In anticipation of potential future HW features, e.g. armv8.5 memory
tagging, only use the high 4 bytes as discriminator bits in
_BridgeObject rather than the top 8 bits. Utilize two perf flags to
cover this instead. This requires shifting around a fair amount of
internal complexity.
Remove Discriminator, Flags, etc., abstractions from
StringObject. These cause code divergence between 32-bit and 64-bit
ABI, complicate ABI changes, and otherwise contribute to bloat.
• Convert _AbstractStringStorage to a protocol, and the free functions used to deduplicate implementations to extensions on that protocol.
• Move 'start' into the abstract type and use that to simplify some code
• Move the ASCII fast path for length into UTF16View.
• Add a weirder but faster way to check which (if any) of our NSString subclasses a given object is, and adopt it
After rebasing on master and incorporating more 32-bit support,
perform a bunch of cleanup, documentation updates, comments, move code
back to String declaration, etc.
Refactor and rename _StringGutsSlice, apply NFC-aware fast paths to a
new buffered iterator.
Also, fix bug in _typeName which used to assume ASCIIness and better
SIL optimizations on StringObject.
Add inlinability annotations to restore performance parity with 4.2 String.
Take advantage of known NFC as a fast-path for comparison, and
overhaul comparison dispatch.
RRC improvements and optmizations.
* Refactor out RRC implementation into dedicated file.
* Change our `_invariantCheck` pattern to generate efficient code in
asserts builds and make the optimizer job's easier.
* Drop a few Bidi shims we no longer need.
* Restore View decls to String, workaround no longer needed
* Cleaner unicode helper facilities
This is a giant squashing of a lot of individual changes prototyping a
switch of String in Swift 5 to be natively encoded as UTF-8. It
includes what's necessary for a functional prototype, dropping some
history, but still leaves plenty of history available for future
commits.
My apologies to anyone trying to do code archeology between this
commit and the one prior. This was the lesser of evils.
The functions in LibcShims are used externally, some directly and some through @inlineable functions. These are changed to SWIFT_RUNTIME_STDLIB_SPI to better match their actual usage. Their names are also changed to add "_swift" to the front to match our naming conventions.
Three functions from SwiftObject.mm are changed to SPI and get a _swift prefix.
A few other support functions are also changed to SPI. They already had a prefix and look like they were meant to be SPI anyway. It was just hard to notice any mixup when they were #defined to the same thing.
