Layers:
- FunctionConvention: AST FunctionType: results, parameters
- ArgumentConventions: SIL function arguments
- ApplyOperandConventions: applied operands
The meaning of an integer index is determined by the collection
type. All the mapping between the various indices (results,
parameters, SIL argument, applied arguments) is restricted to the
collection type that owns that mapping. Remove the concept of a
"caller argument index".
All SILArgument types are "block arguments". There are three kinds:
1. Function arguments
2. Phis
3. Terminator results
In every situation where the source of the block argument matters, we
need to distinguish between these three. Accidentally failing to
handle one of the cases is an perpetual source of compiler
bugs. Attempting to handle both phis and terminator results uniformly
is *always* a bug, especially once OSSA has phi flags. Even when all
cases are handled correctly, the code that deals with data flow across
blocks is incomprehensible without giving each case a type. This
continues to be a massive waste of time literally every time I review
code that involves cross-block control flow.
Unfortunately, we don't have these C++ types yet (nothing big is
blocking that, it just wasn't done). That's manageable because we can
use wrapper types on the Swift side for now. Wrapper types don't
create any more complexity than protocols, but they do sacrifice some
usability in switch cases.
There is no reason for a BlockArgument type. First, a function
argument is a block argument just as much as any other. BlockArgument
provides no useful information beyond Argument. And it is nearly
always a mistake to care about whether a value is a function argument
and not care whether it is a phi or terminator result.
* split the `PassContext` into multiple protocols and structs: `Context`, `MutatingContext`, `FunctionPassContext` and `SimplifyContext`
* change how instruction passes work: implement the `simplify` function in conformance to `SILCombineSimplifyable`
* add a mechanism to add a callback for inserted instructions
For two reasons:
* We also like to check for assert failures in release builds. Although this could be achieved with `precondition`, it's easy to forget about it and use `assert` instead.
* We need to see the error message in crashlogs of release builds. This is even not the case for `precondition`.
Also, re-export the "Basic" module in "SIL" so that the new assert implementation is also available in the Optimizer module (where all files import SIL).
Removes redundant ObjectiveC <-> Swift bridging calls.
Basically, if a value is bridged from ObjectiveC to Swift an then back to ObjectiveC again, then just re-use the original ObjectiveC value.
Also in this commit: add an additional DCE pass before ownership elimination. It can cleanup dead code which is left behind by the ObjCBridgingOptimization.
