We would not previously symbolicate the stack trace and as a result
would not display the stack trace. Add symbolication support to the
runtime to actually make use of the captured stack trace. This allows
us to get a stack trace when the standard library or swift code reports
a fatal error.
We were misinterpreting the protocol conformances as the protocol sections. It
is interesting that this never was caught in any of the runs on the build bots
nor was it caught during the normal execution of code.
Search through the new section containing Swift protocol descriptor
references to resolve protocols by mangled name. Use this
functionality to support protocol composition types within
_typeForMangledName.
The separate section of type references uses the same type reference format
as in protocol conformance records. As with protocol conformance records,
mangle the type reference kind into the lower two bits. Then, eliminate the
separate "flags" field from the type metadata record. Finally, rename
the section because the Swift 5 stable format for this section is
different from prior formats, and the two runtimes need to be able to
coexist.
The format of protocol conformance records will be changing in Swift 5, so
rename the segment (from, e.g., __swift2_proto to __swift5_proto) to allow
Swift < 5 and Swift 5+ runtimes to coexist.
Restructure the ELF handling to be completely agnostic to the OS.
Rather than usng the loader to query the section information, use the
linker to construct linker tables and synthetic markers for the
beginning and of the table. Save off the values of these pointers and
pass them along through the constructor to the runtime for registration.
This removes the need for the begin/end objects. Remove the special
construction of the begin/end objects through the special assembly
constructs, preferring to do this in C with a bit of inline assembly to
ensure that the section is always allocated.
Remove the special handling for the various targets, the empty object
file can be linked on all the targets.
The new object file has no requirements on the ordering. It needs to
simply be injected into the link.
Name the replacement file `swiftrt.o` mirroring `crt.o` from libc. Merge
the constructor and the definition into a single object file.
This approach is generally more portable, overall simpler to implement,
and more robust.
Thanks to Orlando Bassotto for help analyzing some of the odd behaviours
when switching over.
* Revert "[strip -ST] Disable runtime stack trace dumping on Darwin when asserts are disabled."
This reverts commit 6bc28ff1c9.
* Bring back important fixes from the revert of 6bc28ff1c9.
* Change swift::swift_reportError to only print the backtrace in assert builds (swift::warning prints backtrace always).
This commit disables runtime stack trace dumping via dladdr on Darwin when
asserts are disabled.
This stack trace dumping was added as a way to improve the ability to debug the
compiler for compiler developers. This is all well and good but having such a
feature always enabled prevents us from reducing the size of the swift standard
library by eliminating the swift nlist.

- Rename swift::addNewDSOImage() to swift_addNewDSOImage() and
export using SWIFT_RUNTIME_EXPORT.
- Move ELF specific parts of ImageInspection.h into
ImageInspectionELF.h.
- For ELF targets, keep track of shared objects as they are
dynamically loaded so that section data can be added to
the protocol conformance and type metadata caches after
initialisation (rdar://problem/19045112).
- Win32 does not support dlfcn.h, Dl_info or dladdr() so add
lookupSymbol() as a wrapper for ELF/MachO/Win32
- Win32 version needs an implementation, currently it just returns
an error for `cannot lookup address'
The code we use to interface with the platform dynamic linker is turning into a rat's nest of conditionals that's hard to maintain and extend. Since ELF, Mach-O, and PE platforms have pretty fundamentally different dynamic linker interfaces and capabilities, it makes sense to factor that code into a separate file per-platform, instead of trying to conditionalize the logic in-line. This patch factors out a much simpler portable interface for lazily kicking off the protocol conformance and type metadata lookup caches, and factors the guts out into separate MachO, ELF, and Win32 backends. This should also be a much cleaner interface to interface static binary behavior into, assisting #5349.
