The key path pattern needs to include a reference to the external descriptor, along with hooks for lowering its type arguments and indices, if any. The runtime will need to instantiate and interpolate the external component when the key path object is instantiated.
While we're here, let's also reserve some more component header bytes for future expansion, since this is an ABI we're going to be living with for a while.
A necessary precursor to supporting subscripts and unspecialized generic accessors in general. Give get/set components the ability to have an "argument" area that gets instantiated by copying out of the key path pattern arguments at instantiation time, and which holds "witness" information for how to copy, destroy, equate, and hash arguments.
To get the full benefit of dyld3 on Darwin platforms, pointer relocations need to be pointer-aligned, which unfortunately requires growing some key path data structures a little bit. This does tidy up some code that had to hack around our lack of unaligned load/store operations on UnsafeRawPointer, at least. While we're here, we can also simplify the identification strategy for reabstracted stored properties; we only need the property index to identify, not the absolute offset. rdar://problem/32318829
This is a bit more robust and user-friendly than hoping more brittle recovery in SILGen or IRGen for unsupported components kicks in. rdar://problem/32200714
I had optimistically written the code here optimistically hoping #7837 would land in time for me to merge, but that didn't happen, so adjust some things to match the current 12-byte object header size on 32-bit, and introduce some ABI constants for the expected 32- and 64-bit object header sizes we can assert against so that we have some robustness when it eventually changes again. Implements rdar://problem/31768303.
With more recent versions of LLVM (e.g., used with master-next) the
argument of REQUIRES is parsed as an expression. Do not use "rdar"
URLS for these since it confuses lit.
