MetadataCache's allocator into it.
The major functional change here is that MetadataCache will now use
the slab allocator for tree nodes, but I also switched the Hashable
conformances cache to use ConcurrentMap directly instead of a
Lazy<ConcurrentMap<>>.
Previously, these were all using MetadataCache. MetadataCache is a
more heavyweight structure which acquires a lock before building the
metadata. This is appropriate if building the metadata is very
expensive or might have semantic side-effects which cannot be rolled
back. It's also useful when there's a risk of re-entrance, since it
can diagnose such things instead of simply dead-locking or infinitely
recursing. However, it's necessary for structural cases like tuple
and function types, and instead we can just use ConcurrentMap, which
does a compare-and-swap to publish the constructed metadata and
potentially destroys it if another thread successfully won the race.
This is an optimization which we could not previously attempt.
As part of this, fix tuple metadata uniquing to consider the label
string correctly. This exposes a bug where the runtime demangling
of tuple metadata nodes doesn't preserve labels; fix this as well.

under the lock.
Unfortunately, unit-testing this is gratuitously difficult
because of C++ problems. (Fixed in C++17, apparently.) Will
be tested by a future patch which creates a nested foreign
type.
There were places were RelativeDirectPointers were copied using bitwise copies, which is semantically wrong. This patch makes sure it cannot happen anymore.
`WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN` prevents "rarely-used" headers from being pulled in. This
significantly reduced preprocessor pressure, speeding up compile. It also
reduces the amount of cruft pulled in by the Windows.h.
`NOMINMAX` ensures that the `min` and `max` macros are not defined. These
macros collide with the use of `min` and `max` from C++ in certain cases: e.g.
`std::limits<T>`.
This reverts commit 893d1dc523.
This looks like a likely culprit that broke tests on the iOS Simulator:

Unfortunately, Linux is considerably better than Darwin at shaking
these bugs out because Darwin will leave global data mutable after
resolving relocations in it.

Also includes several minor improvements related to relative
pointers that I was using before deciding to simply switch the
parent reference to an absolute reference to get better access
patterns.
Includes a fix since the earlier commit to make enum metadata
writable if they have an unfilled payload size. This didn't show
up on Darwin because "constant" is currently unenforced there in
global data containing relocations.
This patch requires an associated LLDB change which is being

- Add RuntimeTarget template This will allow for converting between
metadata structures for native host and remote target architectures.
- Create InProcess and External templates for stored pointers
Add a few more types to abstract pointer access in the runtime
structures but keep native in-process pointer access the same as that
with a plain old pointer type.
There is now a notion of a "stored pointer", which is just the raw value
of the pointer, and the actual pointer type, which is used for loads.
Decoupling these allows us to fork the behavior when looking at metadata
in an external process, but keep things the same for the in-process
case.
There are two basic "runtime targets" that you can use to work with
metadata:
InProcess: Defines the pointer to be trivially a T* and stored as a
uintptr_t. A Metadata * is exactly as it was before, but defined via
AbstractMetadata<InProcess>.
External: A template that requires a target to specify its pointer size.
ExternalPointer: An opaque pointer in another address space that can't
(and shouldn't) be indirected with operator* or operator->. The memory
reader will fetch the data explicitly.
"minimal" is defined as the set of requirements that would be
passed to a function with the type's generic signature that
takes the thick metadata of the parent type as its only argument.
This makes sure that runtime functions use proper calling conventions, get the required visibility, etc.
We annotate the most popular runtime functions in terms of how often they are invoked from Swift code.
- Almost all variants of retain/release functions are annotated to use the new calling convention.
- Some popular non-reference counting functions like swift_getGenericMetadata or swift_dynamicCast are annotated as well.
The set of runtime functions annotated to use the new calling convention should exactly match the definitions in RuntimeFunctions.def!
...and explicitly mark symbols we export, either for use by executables or for runtime-stdlib interaction. Until the stdlib supports resilience we have to allow programs to link to these SPI symbols.
This is the first patch in a series that will allow new protocol
requirements to be added resiliently, with the runtime filling in
default implementations in witness tables.
First, this adds a new flag to the protocol descriptor indicating
that the protocol is resilient. In this case, there are two
additional fields, MinimumWitnessTableSizeInWords and
DefaultWitnessTableSizeInWords, followed by tail-allocated
default witnesses.
The swift_getGenericWitnessTable() entry point now fills in the
default witnesses from the protocol if the given witness table
template is smaller than the expected witness table size.
This also changes the layout of instantiated witness tables to move
the address point to the end of private data. Previously the private
data came after the requirements, but this meant that adding new
requirements would require sliding the private data at runtime and
accessing it indirectly. It is much simpler to access it from
negative offsets instead.
I updated IRGen to emit the new metadata, but currently all protocols
are flagged as not resilient, and default witnesses are not emitted;
this will come in a subsequent patch once some more plumbing is
in place.
To avoid generating GOT entries for references to protocols defined
in the current module, I had to add some hacks to the existing hack
for this. I'll hopefully clean this up in a principled manner later.
Instead of directly emitting calls to swift_getGenericMetadata*() and
referencing metadata templates, call a metadata accessor function
corresponding to the UnboundGenericType of the NominalTypeDecl.
The body of this accessor forwards arguments to a runtime metadata
instantiation function, together with the template.
Also, move some code around, so that metadata accesses which are
only done as part of the body of a metadata accessor function are
handled separately in emitTypeMetadataAccessFunction().
Apart from protocol conformances, this means metadata templates are
no longer referenced from outside the module where they were defined.
Decrease the size of nominal type descriptors and make them true-const by relative-addressing the other metadata they need to reference, which should all be included in the same image as the descriptor itself. Relative-referencing string constants exposes a bug in the Apple linker, which crashes when resolving relative relocations to coalesceable symbols (rdar://problem/22674524); work around this for now by revoking the `unnamed_addr`-ness of string constants that we take relative references to. (I haven't tested whether GNU ld or gold also have this problem on Linux; it may be possible to conditionalize the workaround to only apply to Darwin targets for now.)
of associated types in protocol witness tables.
We use the global access functions when the result isn't
dependent, and a simple accessor when the result can be cheaply
recovered from the conforming metadata. Otherwise, we add a
cache slot to a private section of the witness table, forcing
an instantiation per conformance. Like generic type metadata,
concrete instantiations of generic conformances are memoized.
There's a fair amount of code in this patch that can't be
dynamically tested at the moment because of the widespread
reliance on recursive expansion of archetypes / dependent
types. That's something we're now theoretically in a position
to change, and as we do so, we'll test more of this code.
This speculatively re-applies 7576a91009,
i.e. reverts commit 11ab3d537f.
We have not been able to duplicate the build failure in
independent testing; it might have been spurious or unrelated.
