These bits are orthogonal to each other, so combine them into one, and diagnose attempts to produce a type that's both. Spot-fix a bunch of places this revealed by inspection that we would have crashed in SILGen or IRGen if blocks were be handled.

This will help to catch errors where one improperly modifies terminators
without updating the appropriate state in a successor/predecessor.

This is apart of teaching the specializer how to specialize
unconditional_checked_casts. Specifically, we might have an
archetype_to_archetype transformation that after specialization become an upcast
between two type pointers.

Language features like erasing concrete metatype
values are also left for the future. Still, baby steps.
The singleton ordinary metatype for existential types
is still potentially useful; we allow it to be written
as P.Protocol.
I've been somewhat cavalier in making code accept
AnyMetatypeType instead of a more specific type, and
it's likely that a number of these places can and
should be more restrictive.
When T is an existential type, parse T.Type as an
ExistentialMetatypeType instead of a MetatypeType.
An existential metatype is the formal type
\exists t:P . (t.Type)
whereas the ordinary metatype is the formal type
(\exists t:P . t).Type
which is singleton. Our inability to express that
difference was leading to an ever-increasing cascade
of hacks where information is shadily passed behind
the scenes in order to make various operations with
static members of protocols work correctly.
This patch takes the first step towards fixing that
by splitting out existential metatypes and giving
them a pointer representation. Eventually, we will
need them to be able to carry protocol witness tables
Swift SVN r15716
We won't have any types where copying has an effect on the bit pattern (except for blocks, which need special handling anyway), and copy_value having a result makes optimizations more complex, so remove it.
Swift SVN r15640
This fixes the following two bugs:
1. We sometimes would create new conformances when deserializing a
witness method which would not be mapped in the SILModule to the
appropriate witness table. This would cause us to be unable to perform
devirtualization of this witness method. This is tested via a new
verifier check.
2. Different conformances would be created for an instance of a base
protocol and the original protocol. This would cause IRGen to try to
emit witness table global variables with differing types, hitting an
assertion. This is tested via a traditional test.
Swift SVN r15362
These checks will make sure that any SILArgument, SILInstruction that is
generic has a primary archetype that matches a primary archetype in the
generic parameter list of the function which contains it.
Swift SVN r15281
I also refactored out common code used both here and in checkApplyInst
that does the same thing but for ApplyInst substitution parameters.
Swift SVN r15278
Loosen the restrictions on open_existential_ref to also allow it to
refer to an existential metatype. When it does, open_existential_ref
returns the metatype for the opened archetype.
Swift SVN r15113
This will help with ensuring that we do not create multiple witness
table "definitions" one of which is null. That situtation yields an
IRGen assertion to be hit since the external declaration (in the guise
of a definition) has a different type from the actual deserialized
definition.
Swift SVN r14999
Teach IRGen to honor the linkage of SILWitnessTables, and teach SILGen to emit witness tables and protocol witness thunks for external definitions with shared linkage. Fixes <rdar://problem/16264703>.
Swift SVN r14908
alloc_ref_dynamic allocates an instance of a class type based on the
value in its metatype operand. Start emitting these instructions for
the allocating constructor of a complete object initializer (not yet
tested) and for the allocating constructor synthesized for an imported
Objective-C init method.
Still missing:
- IRGen still does the same thing as alloc_ref right now. That
change will follow.
- There are devirtualization opportunities when we know the value of
the metatype that would turn an alloc_ref_dynamic into an alloc_ref;
I'm not planning to do this optimization.
Swift SVN r14560
It's not forming the metatype for the protocol type (exists t: P. t).metatype, it's forming the existential of a metatype of a conforming type, exists t: P. (t.metatype).
Swift SVN r14520
Having one instruction to get the dynamic metatype of a (non-existential) value makes more sense from a generic specialization standpoint and should stave off inevitable crashers when archetype_metatypes get specialized. protocol_metatype remains separate because metatype existentials are more interesting.
Swift SVN r14499
We were wantonly applying 'upcast' to archetypes in some cases, and really, that's OK, since these instructions do the same thing (and generic specialization could turn archetype_ref_to_super into upcast). Make everyone's life easier by folding archetype_to_super into upcast. Fixes <rdar://problem/16192324>.
Swift SVN r14496
Introduce basic bridging support for class metatypes as
arguments/parameters. Note that we don't yet bridge 'self' for a class
method, which is the more interesting case; that will follow.
Swift SVN r14123
Introduce the SIL instructions thick_to_objc_metatype and
objc_to_thick_metatype to convert between the 'thick' and
'Objective-C' representations of a metatype. Most of this code is
trivial support code for these conversions: printing, parsing,
(de-)serialization, etc., for which testing will come online in
subsequent patches or is incidental in other tests.
Lower Objective-C metatype values down to objc_class* at the IR level
and implement IRGen support for these SIL instructions. SIL-only test
case at the moment because SILGen never creates these instructions.
Swift SVN r14087
Force @objc_blocks to use the @cc(cdecl) calling convention, so that calling them undergoes bridging conversions in SILGen, and give them the correct ownership conventions so that the callee, arguments, and result are passed +0. This unfortunately ruins our ability to verify bridge_to_block instructions at all, but bridge_to_block is a hack anyway, and this is a necessary prerequisite to actually being able to call blocks in IRGen.
Swift SVN r13923
Riding off of project_existential[_ref] was convenient, but the
resuls are used quite differently. Note that open_existential[_ref]
still don't print/parse reasonably yet.
Swift SVN r13878
Introduce a new expression kind, OpenExistentialExpr, that "opens" up
an existential value into a value of a fresh archetype type that
represents the dynamic type of the existential. That value can be
referenced (via an OpaqueValueExpr) within the within the
subexpression of OpenExistentialExpr. For example, a call to a
DynamicSelf method on an existential looks something like this:
(open_existential_expr implicit type='P'
(opaque_value_expr implicit type='opened P' @ 0x7fd95207c290
unique)
(load_expr implicit type='P'
(declref_expr type='@lvalue P' decl=t.(file).func
decl.p@t.swift:5:37 specialized=no))
(erasure_expr implicit type='P'
(call_expr type='opened P'
(archetype_member_ref_expr type='() -> opened P'
decl=t.(file).P.f@t.swift:2:8 [with Self=opened P]
(opaque_value_expr implicit type='opened P' @
0x7fd95207c290 unique))
(tuple_expr type='()')))))
Note that we're using archetype_member_ref_expr rather than
existential_member_ref_expr, because the call is operating on the
opaque_value_expr of archetype type. The outer erasure turns the
archetype value back into an existential value.
The SILGen side of this is somewhat incomplete; we're using
project_existential[_ref] to open the existential, which is almost
correct: it gives us access to the value as an archetype, but IRGen
doesn't know to treat the archetype type as a fresh archetype whose
conformances come from the existential. Additionally, the output of
the opened type is not properly parsable. I'll fix this in follow-on
commits.
Finally, the type checker very narrowly introduces support for
OpenExistentialExpr as it pertains to DynamicSelf. However, this can
generalize to support all accesses into existentials, eliminating the
need for ExistentialMemberRef and ExistentialSubscript in the AST and
protocol_method in SIL, as well as enabling more advanced existential
features should we want them later.

Edge SILFunction one step closer to independence from SILFunctionType context by taking the generic param list as a separate constructor parameter, and serializing those params alongside the function record. For now we still pass in the context params from the SILFunctionType in most cases, because the logic for finding the generic params tends to be entangled in type lowering, but this pushes the problem up a step.
Thanks Jordan for helping work out the serialization changes needed.
Compared to r13036, this version of the patch includes the decls_block RecordKind enumerators for the GENERIC_PARAM_LIST layouts in the sil_block RecordKind enumerator, as Jordan had suggested before. r13036 caused buildbot failures when building for iOS, but I am unable to reproduce those failures locally now.

It's OK to clone shared definitions, and we need to in order to carry non-inlined specializations with the transparent functions that reference them.
Swift SVN r13288
Introduce a new AST node to capture the covariant function type
conversion for DynamicSelf. This conversion differs from the normal
function-conversion expressions because it isn't inherently type-safe;
type safety is assured through DynamicSelf.
On the SIL side, map DynamicSelf down to the type of the declaring
class to keep the SIL type system consistent. Map the new
CovariantFunctionConversionExpr down to a convert_function
instruction, slightly loosening the constraints on convert_function to
allow for this (it's always been ABI-compatible-only conversions
anyway).
We currently generate awful SIL when calling a DynamicSelf method,
because SILGenApply doesn't know how to deal with the implicit return
type adjustment associated with the covariant function
conversion. That optimization will follow; at least what we have here
is (barely) functional.

When applying getInheritedConformance to a specialized conformance, reapply the specialization to the found inherited conformance so we get a conformance for the same type we put in, making the specializer's job easier when finding conformances to insert into archetype_methods. To expose the problems this fixes, add a check in the SIL verifier that ArchetypeMethodInsts carry a ProtocolConformance that actually matches their lookup type.

with two kinds, and some more specific predicates that clients can use.
The notion of 'computed or not' isn't specific enough for how properties
are accessed. We already have problems with ObjC properties that are
stored but usually accessed through getters and setters, and a bool here
isn't helping matters.
