Switch most general endpoint to be `flags, parameters, parameterFlags, result`,
instead of opaque `void **`, more specialized ones to use follow argument scheme:
`flags, param0, [flags0], ..., paramN, [flagsN], result` and store parameter/flags
information separately in `FunctionCacheEntry::{Key, Data}` as well.
Currently only single 'inout' flag has been encoded into function
metadata, these changes extend function metadata to support up to
32 flags per parameter.
This is a small code size win, and also gives us some abstraction so that future cooperative ObjC compilers/runtimes might be able to interoperate ObjC class objects with Swift type metadata efficiently than they currently are in the fragile Swift runtime.
While I'm here, I also noticed that swift_getObjCClassMetadata was unnecessarily getting exposed in non-ObjC-interop runtime builds, so I fixed that as well.
Alter the value metadata layout to use an absolute pointer for the
nominal type descriptor rather than a relative offset relative to the
complete type metadata. Although this is slightly less efficient in
terms of load times, this is more portable across different
environments. For example, PE/COFF does not provide a cross-section
relative offset relocation. Other platform ports are unable to provide
a 64-bit relative offset encoding.
Given that the value witness table reference in the value metadata is
currently an absolute pointer, this page is most likely going to be
dirtied by the loader.
* [runtime] Fix some casts of _SwiftValue.
* Allow _SwiftValue to be cast to NSObject by yielding the box object itself.
* Failed casts from NSDictionary containing _SwiftValue should not crash.
SR-4306, rdar://31197066
Adds the runtime implementation for copy-on-write existentials. This support is
enabled if SWIFT_RUNTIME_ENABLE_COW_EXISTENTIALS is defined. Focus is on
correctness -- not performance yet.
Don't use allocate/deallocate/projectBuffer witnesses for globals in cow
existential mode.
Use SWIFT_RUNTIME_ENABLE_COW_EXISTENTIALS configuration to set the default for
SILOptions.
This includes an IRGen fix to use the right projection in
emitMetatypeOfOpaqueExistential if SWIFT_RUNTIME_ENABLE_COW_EXISTENTIALS is set.
Use unknownRetain instead of native retain in dynamicCastToExistential.
Previously it was part of swiftBasic.
The demangler library does not depend on llvm (except some header-only utilities like StringRef). Putting it into its own library makes sure that no llvm stuff will be linked into clients which use the demangler library.
This change also contains other refactoring, like moving demangler code into different files. This makes it easier to remove the old demangler from the runtime library when we switch to the new symbol mangling.
Also in this commit: remove some unused API functions from the demangler Context.
fixes rdar://problem/30503344
This makes the demangler about 10 times faster.
It also changes the lifetimes of nodes. Previously nodes were reference-counted.
Now the returned demangle node-tree is owned by the Demangler class and it’s lifetime ends with the lifetime of the Demangler.
Therefore the old (and already deprecated) global functions demangleSymbolAsNode and demangleTypeAsNode are no longer available.
Another change is that the demangling for reflection now only supports the new mangling (which should be no problem because
we are generating only new mangled names for reflection).
Use the generic type lowering algorithm described in
"docs/CallingConvention.rst#physical-lowering" to map from IRGen's explosion
type to the type expected by the ABI.
Change IRGen to use the swift calling convention (swiftcc) for native swift
functions.
Use the 'swiftself' attribute on self parameters and for closures contexts.
Use the 'swifterror' parameter for swift error parameters.
Change functions in the runtime that are called as native swift functions to use
the swift calling convention.

For a value of an opaque generic type `<T> x: T`, the language currently defines `type(of: x)` and `T.self` as both producing a type `T.Type`, and the result of substituting an existential type by `T == P` gives `P.Protocol`, so the `type(of:)` operation on `x` can only give the concrete protocol metatype when `x` is an existential in this case. The optimizer understood this rule, but the runtime did not, causing SR-3304.
Changes:
* Terminate all namespaces with the correct closing comment.
* Make sure argument names in comments match the corresponding parameter name.
* Remove redundant get() calls on smart pointers.
* Prefer using "override" or "final" instead of "virtual". Remove "virtual" where appropriate.
classType is unused without ObjC interop. Simplify the code a bit by increasing
the scope covered by the SWIFT_OBJC_INTEROP. It also silences the warning.
Previously we had two separate mechanisms to turn a metatype
into a string. The swift_typeName() function was used to print
the metatype in a human-readable fashion, whereas the
_swift_buildDemanglingForMetadata() was used when naming
generated generic Objective-C classes.
Unify them, since what swift_typeName() does is redundant;
instead of going directly from the metatype to a human-readable
string, we can get the mangling, and print that using the
demangler.
This fixes some issues with unnecessary parenthesis when
printing function types, and also allows Objective-C classes
to be instantiated with nested generic types as parameters.
We neglected to pass down the Hashable witness table parameters, leading to Heisenbugs because we would call into invalid witness pointers occasionally when loading the Hashable conformance from corrupted metadata. Fixes rdar://problem/28022201.
This allows dynamic casting to succeed between tuple types with
different element types, converting each element in turn. Fixes
rdar://problem/19892202.
Introduce narrow support for tuple/tuple dynamic casts that merely add
or remove labels, but require the element types to match exactly. This
gets us back to allowing the same correct dynamic casts as in Swift
3.0, when labels were completely ignored.
