Except GenericEnvironment.h, because you can't meaningfully use a
GenericEnvironment without its signature. Lots less depends on
GenericSignature.h now. NFC
Till now createApply, createTryApply, createPartialApply were taking some arguments like SubstCalleeType or ResultType. But these arguments are redundant and can be easily derived from other arguments of these functions. There is no need to put the burden of their computation on the clients of these APIs.
The removal of these redundant parameters simplifies the APIs and reduces the possibility of providing mismatched types by clients, which often happened in the past.
Replace `NameOfType foo = dyn_cast<NameOfType>(bar)` with DRY version `auto foo = dyn_cast<NameOfType>(bar)`.
The DRY auto version is by far the dominant form already used in the repo, so this PR merely brings the exceptional cases (redundant repetition form) in line with the dominant form (auto form).
See the [C++ Core Guidelines](https://github.com/isocpp/CppCoreGuidelines/blob/master/CppCoreGuidelines.md#es11-use-auto-to-avoid-redundant-repetition-of-type-names) for a general discussion on why to use `auto` to avoid redundant repetition of type names.
At some point, pass definitions were heavily macro-ized. Pass
descriptive names were added in two places. This is not only redundant
but a source of confusion. You could waste a lot of time grepping for
the wrong string. I removed all the getName() overrides which, at
around 90 passes, was a fairly significant amount of code bloat.
Any pass that we want to be able to invoke by name from a tool
(sil-opt) or pipeline plan *should* have unique type name, enum value,
commend-line string, and name string. I removed a comment about the
various inliner passes that contradicted that.
Side note: We should be consistent with the policy that a pass is
identified by its type. We have a couple passes, LICM and CSE, which
currently violate that convention.
SubstitutionList is going to be a more compact representation of
a SubstitutionMap, suitable for inline allocation inside another
object.
For now, it's just a typedef for ArrayRef<Substitution>.
Separate formal lowered types from SIL types.
The SIL type of an argument will depend on the SIL module's conventions.
The module conventions are determined by the SIL stage and LangOpts.
Almost NFC, but specialized manglings are broken incidentally as a result of
fixes to the way passes handle book-keeping of aruments. The mangler is fixed in
the subsequent commit.
Otherwise, NFC is intended, but quite possible do to rewriting the logic in many
places.
This simplifies the SILType substitution APIs and brings them in line with Doug and Slava's refactorings to improve AST-level type substitution. NFC intended.
This occured if a stack-promoted object with a devirtualized final release is not actually allocated on the stack.
Now the ReleaseDevirtualizer models the procedure of a final release more accurately.
It inserts a set_deallocating instruction and calles the deallocator (instead of just the deinit).
This changes also includes two peephole optimizations in IRGen and LLVMStackPromotion which get rid of
unused runtime calls in case the stack promoted object is really allocated on the stack.
This fixes rdar://problem/25068118
We were giving special handling to ApplyInst when we were attempting to use
getMemoryBehavior(). This commit changes the special handling to work on all
full apply sites instead of just AI. Additionally, we look through partial
applies and thin to thick functions.
I also added a dumper called BasicInstructionPropertyDumper that just dumps the
results of SILInstruction::get{Memory,Releasing}Behavior() for all instructions
in order to verify this behavior.
Similarly to how we've always handled parameter types, we
now recursively expand tuples in result types and separately
determine a result convention for each result.
The most important code-generation change here is that
indirect results are now returned separately from each
other and from any direct results. It is generally far
better, when receiving an indirect result, to receive it
as an independent result; the caller is much more likely
to be able to directly receive the result in the address
they want to initialize, rather than having to receive it
in temporary memory and then copy parts of it into the
target.
The most important conceptual change here that clients and
producers of SIL must be aware of is the new distinction
between a SILFunctionType's *parameters* and its *argument
list*. The former is just the formal parameters, derived
purely from the parameter types of the original function;
indirect results are no longer in this list. The latter
includes the indirect result arguments; as always, all
the indirect results strictly precede the parameters.
Apply instructions and entry block arguments follow the
argument list, not the parameter list.
A relatively minor change is that there can now be multiple
direct results, each with its own result convention.
This is a minor change because I've chosen to leave
return instructions as taking a single operand and
apply instructions as producing a single result; when
the type describes multiple results, they are implicitly
bound up in a tuple. It might make sense to split these
up and allow e.g. return instructions to take a list
of operands; however, it's not clear what to do on the
caller side, and this would be a major change that can
be separated out from this already over-large patch.
Unsurprisingly, the most invasive changes here are in
SILGen; this requires substantial reworking of both call
emission and reabstraction. It also proved important
to switch several SILGen operations over to work with
RValue instead of ManagedValue, since otherwise they
would be forced to spuriously "implode" buffers.
(libraries now)
It has been generally agreed that we need to do this reorg, and now
seems like the perfect time. Some major pass reorganization is in the
works.
This does not have to be the final word on the matter. The consensus
among those working on the code is that it's much better than what we
had and a better starting point for future bike shedding.
Note that the previous organization was designed to allow separate
analysis and optimization libraries. It turns out this is an
artificial distinction and not an important goal.
