2658cbec9b Fix begin_apply inlining when there are no yields
In this PR, preFixUp function in SILCloner is added which can be
overidden by implementations so that the SIL is cleaned for `commonFixup` processing.
For begin_apply inlining, blocks split due to end_apply and abort_apply
are fixed when no yields are found.

b994bf3191 Add support for _specialize(exported: true, ...)
This attribute allows to define a pre-specialized entry point of a
generic function in a library.

The following definition provides a pre-specialized entry point for
`genericFunc(_:)` for the parameter type `Int` that clients of the
library can call.

```
@_specialize(exported: true, where T == Int)
public func genericFunc<T>(_ t: T) { ... }
```

Pre-specializations of internal `@inlinable` functions are allowed.

```
@usableFromInline
internal struct GenericThing<T> {
  @_specialize(exported: true, where T == Int)
  @inlinable
  internal func genericMethod(_ t: T) {
  }
}
```

There is syntax to pre-specialize a method from a different module.

```
import ModuleDefiningGenericFunc

@_specialize(exported: true, target: genericFunc(_:), where T == Double)
func prespecialize_genericFunc(_ t: T) { fatalError("dont call") }

```

Specially marked extensions allow for pre-specialization of internal
methods accross module boundries (respecting `@inlinable` and
`@usableFromInline`).

```
import ModuleDefiningGenericThing
public struct Something {}

@_specializeExtension
extension GenericThing {
  @_specialize(exported: true, target: genericMethod(_:), where T == Something)
  func prespecialize_genericMethod(_ t: T) { fatalError("dont call") }
}
```

1b97c0393c [ownership] Loosen restrictions around what we specialize and add generic specialization tests behind a flag.
The idea is that this will let me remove these assertions that were in place to
make sure we were really conservative around specializing ownership code. For me
to remove that I need to be able to actually test out this code (since I think
there are some code paths where this will trigger in other parts of the compiler
now).

So to work out the kinks, I added a flag that allows for the generic specializer
to process ownership code and translated most of the .sil test cases/fixed any
bugs that I found. This hopefully will expose anything that is missing.

NOTE: I have not enabled the generic specializer running in ownership in the
pipeline. This is just a step in that direction by adding tests/etc.

03c7919b4a SIL: Add fields to SILFunctionType for substituted function types.
https://forums.swift.org/t/improving-the-representation-of-polymorphic-interfaces-in-sil-with-substituted-function-types/29711

This prepares SIL to be able to more accurately preserve the calling convention of
polymorphic generic interfaces by letting the type system represent "substituted function types".
We add a couple of fields to SILFunctionType to support this:

- A substitution map, accessed by `getSubstitutions()`, which maps the generic signature
  of the function to its concrete implementation. This will allow, for instance, a protocol
  witness for a requirement of type `<Self: P> (Self, ...) -> ...` for a concrete conforming
  type `Foo` to express its type as `<Self: P> (Self, ...) -> ... for <Foo>`, preserving the relation
  to the protocol interface without relying on the pile of hacks that is the `witness_method`
  protocol.

- A bool for whether the generic signature of the function is "implied" by the substitutions.
  If true, the generic signature isn't really part of the calling convention of the function.
  This will allow closure types to distinguish a closure being passed to a generic function, like
  `<T, U> in (*T, *U) -> T for <Int, String>`, from the concrete type `(*Int, *String) -> Int`,
  which will make it easier for us to differentiate the representation of those as types, for
  instance by giving them different pointer authentication discriminators to harden arm64e
  code.

This patch is currently NFC, it just introduces the new APIs and takes a first pass at updating
code to use them. Much more work will need to be done once we start exercising these new
fields.

This does bifurcate some existing APIs:

- SILFunctionType now has two accessors to get its generic signature.
  `getSubstGenericSignature` gets the generic signature that is used to apply its
  substitution map, if any. `getInvocationGenericSignature` gets the generic signature
  used to invoke the function at apply sites. These differ if the generic signature is
  implied.
- SILParameterInfo and SILResultInfo values carry the unsubstituted types of the parameters
  and results of the function. They now have two APIs to get that type. `getInterfaceType`
  returns the unsubstituted type of the generic interface, and
  `getArgumentType`/`getReturnValueType` produce the substituted type that is used at
  apply sites.

bddc69c8a6 Organize SILOptimizer/Utils headers. Remove Local.h.
The XXOptUtils.h convention is already established and parallels
the SIL/XXUtils convention.

New:
- InstOptUtils.h
- CFGOptUtils.h
- BasicBlockOptUtils.h
- ValueLifetime.h

Removed:
- Local.h
- Two conflicting CFG.h files

This reorganization is helpful before I introduce more
utilities for block cloning similar to SinkAddressProjections.

Move the control flow utilies out of Local.h, which was an
unreadable, unprincipled mess. Rename it to InstOptUtils.h, and
confine it to small APIs for working with individual instructions.
These are the optimizer's additions to /SIL/InstUtils.h.

Rename CFG.h to CFGOptUtils.h and remove the one in /Analysis. Now
there is only SIL/CFG.h, resolving the naming conflict within the
swift project (this has always been a problem for source tools). Limit
this header to low-level APIs for working with branches and CFG edges.

Add BasicBlockOptUtils.h for block level transforms (it makes me sad
that I can't use BBOptUtils.h, but SIL already has
BasicBlockUtils.h). These are larger APIs for cloning or removing
whole blocks.

5b92814a0e Debug Info: Add missing debug info propagation to SILCloner.
While tightening the requirements of the debug info generator in
IRGenSIL I noticed that SILCloner didn't correctly transfer variable
debug info on alloc_box and alloc_stack instructions. In order to make
these mistakes easier to find I added an assertion to SILBuilder and
fixed all issues uncovered by that assertion, too.

The result is a moderate increase in debug info coverage in optimized code.

On stdlib/public/core/OSX/x86_64/Swift.o "variables with location"
increases from 60134 to 60299.

bd28b0ea1b SILCloner and SILInliner rewrite.
Mostly functionally neutral:
- may fix latent bugs.
- may reduce useless basic blocks after inlining.

This rewrite encapsulates the cloner's internal state, providing a
clean API for the CRTP subclasses. The subclasses are rewritten to use
the exposed API and extension points. This makes it much easier to
understand, work with, and extend SIL cloners, which are central to
many optimization passes. Basic SIL invariants are now clearly
expressed and enforced. There is no longer a intricate dance between
multiple levels of subclasses operating on underlying low-level data
structures. All of the logic needed to keep the original SIL in a
consistent state is contained within the SILCloner itself. Subclasses
only need to be responsible for their own modifications.

The immediate motiviation is to make CFG updates self-contained so
that SIL remains in a valid state. This will allow the removal of
critical edge splitting hacks and will allow general SIL utilities to
take advantage of the fact that we don't allow critical edges.

This rewrite establishes a simple principal that should be followed
everywhere: aside from the primitive mutation APIs on SIL data types,
each SIL utility is responsibile for leaving SIL in a valid state and
the logic for doing so should exist in one central location.

This includes, for example:
- Generating a valid CFG, splitting edges if needed.
- Returning a valid instruction iterator if any instructions are removed.
- Updating dominance.
- Updating SSA (block arguments).

(Dominance info and SSA properties are fundamental to SIL verification).

LoopInfo is also somewhat fundamental to SIL, and should generally be
updated, but it isn't required.

This also fixes some latent bugs related to iterator invalidation in
recursivelyDeleteTriviallyDeadInstructions and SILInliner. Note that
the SILModule deletion callback should be avoided. It can be useful as
a simple cache invalidation mechanism, but it is otherwise bug prone,
too limited to be very useful, and basically bad design. Utilities
that mutate should return a valid instruction iterator and provide
their own deletion callbacks.

58475ef1ad Add debug info support for inlined and specialized generic variables.
This patch adds SIL-level debug info support for variables whose
static type is rewritten by an optimizer transformation. When a
function is (generic-)specialized or inlined, the static types of
inlined variables my change as they are remapped into the generic
environment of the inlined call site. With this patch all inlined
SILDebugScopes that point to functions with a generic signature are
recursively rewritten to point to clones of the original function with
new unique mangled names. The new mangled names consist of the old
mangled names plus the new substituions, similar (or exactly,
respectively) to how generic specialization is handled.

On libSwiftCore.dylib (x86_64), this yields a 17% increase in unique
source vars and a ~24% increase in variables with a debug location.

11b24415c1 [sil-module] Create SILFunctionBuilder and hide creation/erasing functions on SILModule.
This commit does not modify those APIs or their usage. It just:

1. Moves the APIs onto SILFunctionBuilder and makes SILFunctionBuilder a friend
   of SILModule.
2. Hides the APIs on SILModule so all users need to use SILFunctionBuilder to
   create/destroy functions.

I am doing this in order to allow for adding/removing function notifications to
be enforced via the type system in the SILOptimizer. In the process of finishing
off CallerAnalysis for FSO, I discovered that we were not doing this everywhere
we need to. After considering various other options such as:

1. Verifying after all passes that the notifications were sent correctly and
   asserting. Turned out to be expensive.
2. Putting a callback in SILModule. This would add an unnecessary virtual call.

I realized that by using a builder we can:

1. Enforce that users of SILFunctionBuilder can only construct composed function
   builders by making the composed function builder's friends of
   SILFunctionBuilder (notice I did not use the word subclass, I am talking
   about a pure composition).
2. Refactor a huge amount of code in SILOpt/SILGen that involve function
   creation onto a SILGenFunctionBuilder/SILOptFunctionBuilder struct. Many of
   the SILFunction creation code in question are straight up copies of each
   other with small variations. A builder would be a great way to simplify that
   code.
3. Reduce the size of SILModule.cpp by 25% from ~30k -> ~23k making the whole
   file easier to read.

NOTE: In this commit, I do not hide the constructor of SILFunctionBuilder since
I have not created the derived builder structs yet. Once I have created those in
a subsequent commit, I will hide that constructor.

9b6a9946ec Be explicit about whether a DebugInfo-carying SILInstruction has debug info.
This patch both makes debug variable information it optional on
alloc_stack and alloc_box instructions, and forced variable
information on debug_value and debug_value_addr instructions. The
change of the interface uncovered a plethora of bugs in SILGen,
SILTransform, and IRGen's LoadableByAddress pass.

Most importantly this fixes the previously commented part of the
DebugInfo/local-vars.swift.gyb testcase.

4e8ff35df5 [semantic-sil] Add ValueOwnershipKind field to SILPHIArgument and split Argument creation methods into one for SILPHIArgument and another for SILFunctionArgument.
We preserve the current behavior of assuming Any ownership always and use
default arguments to hide this change most of the time. There are asserts now in
the SILBasicBlock::{create,replace,insert}{PHI,Function}Argument to ensure that
the people can only create SILFunctionArguments in entry blocks and
SILPHIArguments in non-entry blocks. This will ensure that the code in tree
maintains the API distinction even if we are not using the full distinction in
between the two.

Once the verifier is finished being upstreamed, I am going to audit the
createPHIArgument cases for the proper ownership. This is b/c I will be able to
use the verifier to properly debug the code. At that point, I will also start
serializing/printing/parsing the ownershipkind of SILPHIArguments, but lets take
things one step at a time and move incrementally.

In the process, I also discovered a CSE bug. I am not sure how it ever worked.
Basically we replace an argument with a new argument type but return the uses of
the old argument to refer to the old argument instead of a new argument.

e42bf07af4 [gardening] Always create SILBasicBlocks via SILFunction::createBasicBlock.
This eliminates all inline creation of SILBasicBlock via placement new.

There are a few reasons to do this:

1. A SILBasicBlock is always created with a parent function. This commit
formalizes this into the SILBasicBlock API by only allowing for SILFunctions to
create SILBasicBlocks. This is implemented via the type system by making all
SILBasicBlock constructors private. Since SILFunction is a friend of
SILBasicBlock, SILFunction can still create a SILBasicBlock without issue.

2. Since all SILBasicBlocks will be created in only a few functions, it becomes
very easy to determine using instruments the amount of memory being allocated
for SILBasicBlocks by simply inverting the call tree in Allocations.

With LTO+PGO, normal inlining can occur if profitable so there shouldn't be
overhead that we care about in shipping compilers.

bffa7addaf [semantic-arc] Eliminate default {Load,Store}OwnershipQualification argument to SILBuilder::create{Load,Store}(...)
Today, loads and stores are treated as having @unowned(unsafe) ownership
semantics. This leaves the user to specify ownership changes on the loaded or
stored value independently of the load/store by inserting ARC operations. With
the change to Semantic SIL, this will no longer be true. Instead loads, stores
have ownership semantics that one must reason about such as copy, take, and
trivial.

This change moves us closer to that world by eliminating the default
OwnershipQualification argument from create{Load,Store}. This means that the
compiler developer cannot ignore reasoning about the ownership semantics of the
memory operation that they are creating.

Operationally, this is a NFC change since I have just gone through the compiler
and updated all places where we create loads, stores to pass in the former
default argument ({Load,Store}OwnershipQualifier::Unqualified), to
SILBuilder::create{Load,Store}(...). For now, one can just do that in situations
where one needs to create loads/stores, but over time, I am going to tighten the
semantics up via the verifier.

5aa99fa346 SILOptimizer: Create non-[fragile] specializations of [fragile] functions where possible
Change the optimizer to only make specializations [fragile] if both the
original callee is [fragile] *and* the caller is [fragile].

Otherwise, the specialized callee might be [fragile] even if it is never
called from a [fragile] function, which inhibits the optimizer from
devirtualizing calls inside the specialization.

This opens up some missed optimization opportunities in the performance
inliner and devirtualization, which currently reject fragile->non-fragile
references:

TEST                                                    | OLD_MIN | NEW_MIN | DELTA (%) | SPEEDUP

DictionaryRemoveOfObjects                               | 38391   | 35859   | -6.6%     | **1.07x**
Hanoi                                                   | 5853    | 5288    | -9.7%     | **1.11x**
Phonebook                                               | 18287   | 14988   | -18.0%    | **1.22x**
SetExclusiveOr_OfObjects                                | 20001   | 15906   | -20.5%    | **1.26x**
SetUnion_OfObjects                                      | 16490   | 12370   | -25.0%    | **1.33x**

Right now, passes other than performance inlining and devirtualization
of class methods are not checking invariants on [fragile] functions
at all, which was incorrect; as part of the work on building the
standard library with -enable-resilience, I added these checks, which
regressed performance with resilience disabled. This patch makes up for
these regressions.

Furthermore, once SIL type lowering is aware of resilience, this will
allow the stack promotion pass to make further optimizations after
specializing [fragile] callees.

4187959e66 GenericSpecializer: When specializing a generic function, convert indirect parameters/result to direct parameters/result.
With this re-abstraction a specialized function has the same calling convention as if it would have been written with the specialized types in the first place.
In general this results in less alloc_stacks and load/stores.
It also can eliminate some re-abstraction thunks, e.g. if a generic closure is used in a non-generic context.
It some (hopefully rare) cases it may require to add re-abstraction thunks.

In case a function has multiple indirect results, only the first is converted to a direct result. This is an open TODO.
