This becomes important when opened existentials start to appear in code that gets inlined and specialized--although we remap the opened existentials in operands, we didn't in substitutions until now. NFC yet, but important to upcoming SIL instruction simplifications.
Swift SVN r22373
This prevented dead function removal of inlined dead functions. Beside the stdlib it's mostly
an issue of SIL size (and therefore compiletime), because llvm did remove such functions anyway.
Swift SVN r22301
This is necessary to be able to properly stash values with nontrivial lowerings, such as metatypes and functions, inside existential containers. Modify SILGen to lower values to the proper abstraction level before storing them in an existential container. Part of the fix for rdar://problem/18189508, though runtime problems still remain when trying to actually dynamicCast out a metatype from an Any container.
Swift SVN r21830
We want to be able to work around problems with non-failable
Objective-C initializers actually failing, which can happen when the
API audit data incorrectly marks an initializer as non-failable.
Swift SVN r21711
Fixes part of <rdar://problem/16196801>.
Inline generic functions, but only when:
- There are no unbound archetypes being substituted (due to various
assumptions in TypeSubstCloner about having all concrete types).
- When no substitution is an existential (due to
<rdar://problem/17431105>, <rdar://problem/17544901>, and
<rdar://problem/17714025>).
This gets things limping along, but we really need to fix the above
limitations so that mandatory inlining never fails.
This doesn't enable inlining generics in the performance inliner. There
is no reason it shouldn't work as well, but there is no compelling
reason to do so now and it could have unintended effects on performance.

These instructions do a bitcast operation without stack traffic (at the SIL level). unchecked_trivial_bit_cast represents a conversion from a potentially nontrivial type to a trivial type, such as from a class reference to Int. unchecked_ref_bit_cast represents a conversion between types for which retain_value and release_value has equivalent effects when applied on the input or output values.
Swift SVN r19053
info for them and generally clean up the inline scope handling a bit.
Fix the debug scope handling for all clients of SILCloner, especially
the SIL-level spezializers and inliners.
This also adds a ton of additional assertions that will ensure that
future optimization passes won't mess with the debug info in a way that
could confuse the LLVM backend.

hierarchy. I still need to figure out a reliable way to write testcases
for this. For now it's ensured via an assertion in SILCloner::postprocess.
Swift SVN r18917
Add objc_metatype_to_object and objc_existential_metatype_to_object to convert metatypes to AnyObject, and objc_protocol to get a reference to an @objc protocol descriptor as a Protocol class instance.

put the result in a different place.
WIP: no IRGen support yet.
This will eventually be the required form when casting
to an address-only type; the existing instructions will
have only scalar outputs.
Swift SVN r18780
An unsafe cast from a base to a derived class isn't really all that different from one from Builtin.NativeObject to an arbitrary class, so relax this pair of instructions to allow an arbitrary bitcast. This only combines the instructions; it doesn't attempt to simplify any codegen that was emitting round-trip casts before yet.
Swift SVN r16736
This allows the payload for a loadable enum to be unsafely projected without branching, enabling more enum optimizations when switch branches can be culled or when indirect enum code can be promoted.
Swift SVN r16729
This was part of the original weak design that
there was never any particular reason to rush the
implementation for. It's convenient to do this now
so that we can use it to implement Unmanaged<T> for
importing CF types.
Swift SVN r16693
Give us a way to formally represent autoreleases in SIL separate from autoreleased returns, allowing us to lifetime-extend inner pointer parameters the lazy way and hopefully clean up some asmname hacks in the stdlib implementation too.
Swift SVN r16632
Add project_block_storage, to project the capture storage from within a block_storage, and init_block_storage_header, to represent filling out the block header.
Swift SVN r16358
We want to generally treat blocks as heap objects until proven stack-able by escape analysis, like we do generally with other heap entities. The only place we should be exposed to stack blocks is when they're passed as arguments, so handle this by copy_block'ing any block arguments we get in the function prolog. Optimization can eliminate them when analysis shows the block doesn't escape or is already on the heap.
Swift SVN r16096
Previously we only supported SILArguments. In the process of changing this I
noticed that our densemap implementation for SILValues only hashes the wrapped
ValueBase instead of hash combining that hash with a hash of the result number.
The main use case for this is to enable the insertion of a Builtin.trap + RAUW
SILUndef of uses of an unconditional_checked_cast that is invalid after
specialization.

This will be a signal to ARC optimization, RVO, and other lifetime-affecting optimizations that they should not shorten the lifetime of a value past a certain point. We need this for C pointer bridging. This adds the instruction, but does not add any knowledge of it to the ARC optimizers.
Swift SVN r15601
alloc_ref_dynamic allocates an instance of a class type based on the
value in its metatype operand. Start emitting these instructions for
the allocating constructor of a complete object initializer (not yet
tested) and for the allocating constructor synthesized for an imported
Objective-C init method.
Still missing:
- IRGen still does the same thing as alloc_ref right now. That
change will follow.
- There are devirtualization opportunities when we know the value of
the metatype that would turn an alloc_ref_dynamic into an alloc_ref;
I'm not planning to do this optimization.
Swift SVN r14560
It's not forming the metatype for the protocol type (exists t: P. t).metatype, it's forming the existential of a metatype of a conforming type, exists t: P. (t.metatype).
Swift SVN r14520
Having one instruction to get the dynamic metatype of a (non-existential) value makes more sense from a generic specialization standpoint and should stave off inevitable crashers when archetype_metatypes get specialized. protocol_metatype remains separate because metatype existentials are more interesting.
Swift SVN r14499
We were wantonly applying 'upcast' to archetypes in some cases, and really, that's OK, since these instructions do the same thing (and generic specialization could turn archetype_ref_to_super into upcast). Make everyone's life easier by folding archetype_to_super into upcast. Fixes <rdar://problem/16192324>.
