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!
Set up a separate libSwiftStubs.a archive for C++ stub functionality that's needed by the standard library but not part of the core runtime interface. Seed it with the Stubs.cpp and LibcShims.cpp files, which consist only of stubs, though a few stubs are still strewn across the runtime code base.
The standard library has grown significantly, and we need a new
directory structure that clearly reflects the role of the APIs, and
allows future growth.
See stdlib/{public,internal,private}/README.txt for more information.
