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.
A "retroactive" protocol conformance is a conformance that is provided
by a module that is neither the module that defines the protocol nor
the module that defines the conforming type. It is possible for such
conformances to conflict at runtime, if defined in different modules
that were not both visible to the compiler at the same time.
When mangling a bound generic type, also mangle retroactive protocol
conformances that were needed to satisfy the generic requirements of
the generic type. This prevents name collisions between (e.g.) types
formed using retroactive conformances from different modules. The
impact on the size of the mangling is expected to be relatively small,
because most conformances are not retroactive.
Fixes the ABI part of rdar://problem/14375889.
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.
This makes them consistent no matter what shenanigans are pulled by
the importer, particularly NS_ENUM vs. NS_OPTIONS and NS_SWIFT_NAME.
The 'NSErrorDomain' API note /nearly/ works with this, but the
synthesized error struct is still mangled as a Swift declaration,
which means it's not rename-stable. See follow-up commits.
The main place where this still falls down is NS_STRING_ENUM: when
this is applied, a typedef is imported as a unique struct, but without
it it's just a typealias for the underlying type. There's also still a
problem with synthesized conformances, which have a module mangled
into the witness table symbol even though that symbol is linkonce_odr.
rdar://problem/31616162
Make function mangling backward compatible based on the prefix
of the mangled symbol, which is used to distinguish between names
with old/new parameter label mangling schemes.
Resolves: rdar://problem/36357120
Demangle such suffixes as "unmangled suffix"
IRGen still uses '.<n>' to disambiguate partial apply thunks and outlined copy functions.
rdar://problem/32934962
Either the demangling completely succeeds or it fails. Don't demangle to something like: [...] with unmangled suffix "..."
This avoids getting really stupid demangled names for symbols which are actually not swift symbols.
- Allow them to use substitutions.
- Consistently use 'a' as a mangling operator.
- For generic typealiases, include the alias as context for any generic
parameters.
Typealiases don't show up in symbol names, which always refer to
canonical types, but they are mangled for debug info and for USRs
(unique identifiers used by SourceKit), so it's good to get this
right.
A protocol composition with an explicit 'AnyObject' member is
now mangled as <protocol list> 'Xl'. For subclass existentials,
I changed the mangling from <protocol list> <class> 'XE' to
<protocol list> <class> 'Xl'.
Not used for anything just yet.
Previously it was part of swiftBasic.
The demangler library does not depend on llvm (except some header-only utilities like StringRef). Putting it into its own library makes sure that no llvm stuff will be linked into clients which use the demangler library.
This change also contains other refactoring, like moving demangler code into different files. This makes it easier to remove the old demangler from the runtime library when we switch to the new symbol mangling.
Also in this commit: remove some unused API functions from the demangler Context.
