The ExistentialSpecializer incorrectly assumed that an existential's conformances match an opened archetype. They don't. Opened archetypes strip inherited conformances per the ABI for generic argument passing. Existential values retain those inherited conformances (for some inexplicable reason).
- Rename ASTContext::getExistentialSignature() to
getOpenedArchetypeSiganture() because it was doing exactly the wrong
thing for existentials.
- Fix ConcreteExistentialInfo to produce the correct SubstitutionMap.
- Fix ExistentialSpecializer to generate the correct conformances for
init_existential by adding a collectExistentialConformances() helper.
Fixes <rdar://problem/57025861> "Assertion failed: (conformances.size() == numConformanceRequirements)" in ExistentialSpecializer on inlined code
ProtocolConformanceRef already has an invalid state. Drop all of the
uses of Optional<ProtocolConformanceRef> and just use
ProtocolConformanceRef::forInvalid() to represent it. Mechanically
translate all of the callers and callsites to use this new
representation.
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.
Generalizes the ConcreteExistentialInfo abstraction so it can be used
both by the ExistentialSpecializer and SILCombine, allowing redundant
code in ExistentialSpecializer.cpp to be deleted.
Splits OpenedArchetypeInfo from ConcreteExistentialInfo. Adds a
ConcreteOpenedArchetypeInfo convenience wrapper around them both, for
use wherever we were originally using ConcreteExistentialInfo.
Splits getAddressOfStackInit into getStackInitInst, This is cleaner and
allows both the ExistentialSpecializer and SILCombine to handle more
interesting cases in the future, like unconditional_checked_cast.
Creates utilities, initializeSubstitutionMap, and
initializeConcreteTypeDef to simplify an generalize
ConcreteExistentialInfo.
While rewriting ExistentialSpecializer to use the new
abstraction, I fixed a latent bug in which is was using a SIL
argument index as a function type parameter index (this would
have broken up if/when we decide to enable calls with indirect
results).
This allows Swift code to implement a fast path via a protocol type
check as follows:
if let existentialVal = genericVal as? SomeProtocol {
// do something fast.
}
Fixes <rdar://problem/46322928> Failure to devirtualize a protocol
method applied to an opened existential blocks implemention of
DataProtocol.
Note: the approach of devirtualization via backward pattern matching
is fundamentally wrong and will never be fully general. It should be a
forward type propagation.
At least most of these were latent bugs since the code was
unreachable in the PartialApply case. But that's no excuse to misuse
the API.
Also, whenever referring to an integer index, be explicit about
whether it is an applied argument or callee argument.
Fixes <rdar://40555427> [SR-7773]:
SILCombiner::propagateConcreteTypeOfInitExistential fails to full propagate type
substitutions.
Fixes <rdar://problem/40923849>
SILCombiner::propagateConcreteTypeOfInitExistential crashes on protocol
compositions.
This rewrite fixes several fundamental bugs in the SILCombiner optimization that
propagates concrete types. In particular, the pass needs to handle:
- Arguments of callee Self type in non-self position.
- Indirect and direct return values of Self type.
- Types that indirectly depend on Self within callee function signature.
- Protocol composition existentials.
- All of the above need to work for protocol extensions as well as witness methods.
- For protocol extensions, conformance lookup should be based on the existential's conformance list.
Additionally, the optimization should not depend on a SILFunction's DeclContext,
which is not serialized. (In fact, we should prevent SIL passes from using
DeclContext). Furthermore, the code needs to be expressed in a way that one can
reason about correctness and invariants.
The root cause of these bugs is that SIL passes are written based on untested
assumptions of Swift type system. A SIL pass needs to handle all verifiable SIL
input because passes need to be composable. Bail-out logic can be added to
simplify the design; however, _the bail-out logic itself cannot make any
assumptions about the language or type system_ that aren't clearly and
explicitly enforced in the SIL verifier. This is a common mistake and major
source of bugs.
I created as many unit tests as I reasonably could to prevent this code from
regressing. Creating enough unit tests to cover all corner cases that were
broken in the original code would be intractable. But the code has been
simplified such that many corner cases disappear.
This opens up some oportunity for generalizing the optimization and eliminating
special cases. However, I want this PR to be limited to fixing correctness
issues only. In the long term, it would be preferable to replace this
optimization entirely with a much more powerful general type propagation pass.
