In this diff we add first bits to make reflection work on Windows,
in particular, properly extract the metadata from the corresponding sections.
With this diff box_descriptors.sil and capture_descriptors.sil start passing on Windows
after some minor tweaks to the lit testing infrastructure.
When compiling for a 32 bit machine, uintptr_t from ReflectionInfo will
be the integer sized to hold a 32 bit pointer, so a 64 bit pointer might
not fit.
This commit removes the solution in
0f20c486e0 and does a runtime check that
the calculated offset will fit into the target machine uintptr_t, which
might not be true for 32 bits machines trying to read 64 bits images,
which should not be that common (and those images have to have offsets
bigger than what a 32 bits number can hold).
Split the addImage method for ELF into two branches for ELF32 and for
ELF64 depending on the value stored in the identifier of the image.
Most of the code of the previous function moves into readELFSections,
which is build similar to the already existing readMachOSections. The
code is only modified to use the types from the template parameter.
This fixes a couple of reflection tests in Android armv7 (and I suppose
it should also fix the same problem in other 32 bits platforms which use
ELF).
An Error existential value can directly store a
reference to an NSError instance without wrapping
it in an Error container.
When "projecting" such an existential, the dynamic type
is the NSError's isa pointer, and the payload is the
address of the instance itself.
Bitwise takability is now part of the layout of a type, because
non-bitwise takable types are never stored inline in an
existential or resilient global's buffer, even if they would
fit.
The basic rule is that weak references, unknown-refcounted
unowned references, and aggregates that contain them, are not
bitwise takable, whereas everything else is bitwise takable.
Also, since the bitwise takable for an unowned reference
depends on the reference counting style, we have to record the
superclass of a protocol, if any, to correctly determine the
reference counting style of the protocol existential.
This comes back to the older approach of mapping all __TEXT, as
taking in account the delta between sections seems a little too
complicated for now. Hopefully we'll be back optimizing this
once we're done with debugger integration.

There are several problems fixed by this commit.
-> It removes the dependency on a system header.
-> It works when the pointer size for host and target don't match
(i.e. 32-bits/64-bits and viceversa)
-> It reads the file lazily, mapping only the sections that are
needed. The old approach mapped the whole __TEXT segment, causing
significant slowdowns when trying to integrate this API in the
debugger. Now it's almost instant (10 seconds vs milliseconds).

* Remove getPointerSize and getSizeSize functions, replace with a single PointerSize value.
* Remove imageLength parameter from addImage, calculate it internally instead.
* Check remote mirrors libraries' metadata version and reject them if it's too old.
* Shim GetStringLength and GetSymbolAddress for the legacy library since we don't pass the caller's context pointer through directly.
* Actually set the IsLegacy flag in the Library struct.
* Implement ownsObject by tracking each added image's data segment and checking metadata pointers against them. The previous approach didn't work.
This makes resolving mangled names to nominal types in the same module more efficient, and for eventual secrecy improvements, also allows types in the same module to be referenced from mangled typerefs without encoding any source-level name information about them.
This new format more efficiently represents existing information, while
more accurately encoding important information about nested generic
contexts with same-type and layout constraints that need to be evaluated
at runtime. It's also designed with an eye to forward- and
backward-compatible expansion for ABI stability with future Swift
versions.
ELF is segment mapped, where the segment which contains a particular
section may be mapped to an address which does not correspond to the
address on disk. Since the reflection dumper does not use the loader to
load the image into memory, we must manually account for any section
offsets. Calculate this value when we query the mmap'ed image and wire
it through to the relative direct pointer accesses.
When switching to the linker table approach for the ELF metadata
introspection, this was uncovered as the segment containing the orphaned
sections was coalesced into a separate PT_LOAD header which had a non-0
offset for the mapping.
Adds the runtime implementation for copy-on-write existentials. This support is
enabled if SWIFT_RUNTIME_ENABLE_COW_EXISTENTIALS is defined. Focus is on
correctness -- not performance yet.
Don't use allocate/deallocate/projectBuffer witnesses for globals in cow
existential mode.
Use SWIFT_RUNTIME_ENABLE_COW_EXISTENTIALS configuration to set the default for
SILOptions.
This includes an IRGen fix to use the right projection in
emitMetatypeOfOpaqueExistential if SWIFT_RUNTIME_ENABLE_COW_EXISTENTIALS is set.
Use unknownRetain instead of native retain in dynamicCastToExistential.
