If yes, a warning should be printed and the return value should indicate that.

If a protocol witness table requires instantiation, the runtime
needs to call the witness table accessor when looking up the
conformance in swift_conformsToProtocol().
We had a bit of code for this already, but it wasn't fully
hooked up. Change IRGen to emit a reference to the witness table
accessor rather than the witness table itself if the witness
table needs instantiation, and add support to the runtime for
calling the accessor.
for weak semantics, that is!
94a9c512b9 made some changes to loading
weak references by adding some information in the lower bits with
respect to locking. These bits need to be masked out when performing a
load, such as when we want to get the metadata pointer for a class
instance. This normally works fine when going through the normal weak
loading functions in the runtime.
When the runtime function swift_ClassMirror_subscript gets the offset of
one of its stored properties, it immediately packages it into the the
ad-hoc existential container, known as just `Mirror` in the runtime.
However, the weak reference isn't aligned! It has bit 1 set. We weren't
loading the weak reference here as we would during normal SILGen, such
as with a weak_load instruction. Simulate that here and make the
reference strong before putting it into the Mirror container, which also
clears those lower bits.

There are still a couple of other cases to handle, namely the
unowned(safe) and unowned(unsafe) reference kinds. There may be other
places where an unaligned pointer is problematic in the runtime, which
we should audit for correctness.

Adds a rough sketch of what will be a test harness, currently only supported
on OS X:
- Launch a child process: an executable written in Swift
- Receive the child process's Mach port
- Receive reflection section addresses and the address of a heap instance
of interest
- Perform field type lookup on the instance remotely (TODO)
- Add RuntimeTarget template This will allow for converting between
metadata structures for native host and remote target architectures.
- Create InProcess and External templates for stored pointers
Add a few more types to abstract pointer access in the runtime
structures but keep native in-process pointer access the same as that
with a plain old pointer type.
There is now a notion of a "stored pointer", which is just the raw value
of the pointer, and the actual pointer type, which is used for loads.
Decoupling these allows us to fork the behavior when looking at metadata
in an external process, but keep things the same for the in-process
case.
There are two basic "runtime targets" that you can use to work with
metadata:
InProcess: Defines the pointer to be trivially a T* and stored as a
uintptr_t. A Metadata * is exactly as it was before, but defined via
AbstractMetadata<InProcess>.
External: A template that requires a target to specify its pointer size.
ExternalPointer: An opaque pointer in another address space that can't
(and shouldn't) be indirected with operator* or operator->. The memory
reader will fetch the data explicitly.
"minimal" is defined as the set of requirements that would be
passed to a function with the type's generic signature that
takes the thick metadata of the parent type as its only argument.
This is the first patch in a series that will allow new protocol
requirements to be added resiliently, with the runtime filling in
default implementations in witness tables.
First, this adds a new flag to the protocol descriptor indicating
that the protocol is resilient. In this case, there are two
additional fields, MinimumWitnessTableSizeInWords and
DefaultWitnessTableSizeInWords, followed by tail-allocated
default witnesses.
The swift_getGenericWitnessTable() entry point now fills in the
default witnesses from the protocol if the given witness table
template is smaller than the expected witness table size.
This also changes the layout of instantiated witness tables to move
the address point to the end of private data. Previously the private
data came after the requirements, but this meant that adding new
requirements would require sliding the private data at runtime and
accessing it indirectly. It is much simpler to access it from
negative offsets instead.
I updated IRGen to emit the new metadata, but currently all protocols
are flagged as not resilient, and default witnesses are not emitted;
this will come in a subsequent patch once some more plumbing is
in place.
To avoid generating GOT entries for references to protocols defined
in the current module, I had to add some hacks to the existing hack
for this. I'll hopefully clean this up in a principled manner later.
- Implement emission of type references for nominal type field
reflection, using a small custom encoder resulting in packed
structs, not strings. This will let us embed 7-bit encoded
32-bit relative offsets directly in the structure (not yet
hooked in).
- Use the AST Mangler for encoding type references
Archetypes and internal references were complicating this before, so we
can take the opportunity to reuse this machinery and avoid unique code
and new ABI.
Next up: Tests for reading the reflection sections and converting the
demangle tree into a tree of type references.
Todo: For concrete types, serialize the types for associated types of
their conformances to bootstrap the typeref substitution process.
rdar://problem/15617914
This comes with a fix for a null pointer dereference in _typeByName()
that would pop with foreign classes that do not have a
NominalTypeDescriptor.
Also, I decided to back out part of the change for now, where the
NominalTypeDescriptor references an accessor function instead of a
pattern, since this broke LLDB, which reaches into the pattern to
get the generic cache.
Soon we will split off the generic cache from the pattern, and at
that time we can change the NominalTypeDescriptor to point at the
cache. But for now, let's avoid needless churn in LLDB by keeping
that part of the setup unchanged.
Change conformance records to reference NominalTypeDescriptors instead of
metadata patterns for resilient or generic types.
For a resilient type, we don't know if the metadata is constant or not,
so we can't directly reference either constant metadata or the metadata
template.
Also, whereas previously NominalTypeDescriptors would point to the
metadata pattern, they now point to the metadata accessor function.
This allows the recently-added logic for instantiating concrete types
by name to continue working.
In turn, swift_initClassMetadata_UniversalStrategy() would reach into
the NominalTypeDescriptor to get the pattern out, so that its bump
allocator could be used to allocate ivar tables. Since the pattern is
no longer available this way, we have to pass it in as a parameter.
In the future, we will split off the read-write metadata cache entry
from the pattern; then swift_initClassMetadata_UniversalStrategy() can
just take a pointer to that, since it doesn't actually need anything
else from the pattern.
Since Clang doesn't guarantee alignment for function pointers, I had
to kill the cute trick that packed the NominalTypeKind into the low
bits of the relative pointer to the pattern; instead the kind is now
stored out of line. We could fix this by packing it with some other
field, or keep it this way in case we add new flags later.
Now that generic metadata is instantiated by calling accessor functions,
this change removes the last remaining place that metadata patterns were
referenced from outside the module they were defined in. Now, the layout
of the metadata pattern and the behavior of swift_getGenericMetadata()
is purely an implementation detail of generic metadata accessors.
This patch allows two previously-XFAIL'd tests to pass.
An individual field record for a nominal type consists of:
- 32-bit general purpose flags,
- 32-bit relative offset to the encoded type reference string, or
32-bit relative offset to the mangled name of the type defined
in another image, and
- 32-bit relative offset to the field name string.

and use it to update LeaksChecker in a robust way to handle new metadata

I also fixed a small typo where the native ErrorType was not included in

We have enough flag bits on function types now to warrant stashing an extra word in the metadata key alongside the arguments and results, so add one, and pack the number of arguments, function convention, and 'throws' bit in there. This lets us merge the separate metadata caches for thick/thin/block/C functions into one, saving a bit of runtime memory, and simplifying a bunch of repetitive code in the runtime and IRGen.
This also fixes a subtle bug we had where the runtime getFunctionTypeMetadata function expected the result argument to be passed in the arguments array, but IRGen was passing it as a separate argument, which would have caused function type metadata to fail to be uniqued by result type.

@objc protocols aren't supported with an ObjC runtime, but we still want values of AnyObject type to be word-sized. Handle this by turning the binary "needsWitnessTable" condition into a "dispatch strategy" enum, so we can recognize the condition "has no methods, so neither swift nor objc dispatch" as distinct from either swift or ObjC protocol representations. Assign this dispatch strategy when we lower AnyObject. Should be NFC for the ObjC-enabled build.
(It would also be beneficial for the ObjC-runtime-enabled version of Swift if AnyObject weren't an @objc protocol; that would mean we could give it a canonical protocol descriptor in the standard library, among other things. There are fairly deep assumptions in Sema that AnyObject is @objc, though, and it's not worth disturbing those assumptions right now.)
