This is phase-1 of switching from llvm::Optional to std::optional in the
next rebranch. llvm::Optional was removed from upstream LLVM, so we need
to migrate off rather soon. On Darwin, std::optional, and llvm::Optional
have the same layout, so we don't need to be as concerned about ABI
beyond the name mangling. `llvm::Optional` is only returned from one
function in
```
getStandardTypeSubst(StringRef TypeName,
bool allowConcurrencyManglings);
```
It's the return value, so it should not impact the mangling of the
function, and the layout is the same as `std::optional`, so it should be
mostly okay. This function doesn't appear to have users, and the ABI was
already broken 2 years ago for concurrency and no one seemed to notice
so this should be "okay".
I'm doing the migration incrementally so that folks working on main can
cherry-pick back to the release/5.9 branch. Once 5.9 is done and locked
away, then we can go through and finish the replacement. Since `None`
and `Optional` show up in contexts where they are not `llvm::None` and
`llvm::Optional`, I'm preparing the work now by going through and
removing the namespace unwrapping and making the `llvm` namespace
explicit. This should make it fairly mechanical to go through and
replace llvm::Optional with std::optional, and llvm::None with
std::nullopt. It's also a change that can be brought onto the
release/5.9 with minimal impact. This should be an NFC change.
Deallocate dynamic allocas done for metadata/wtable packs. These
stackrestore calls are inserted on the dominance frontier and then stack
nesting is fixed up. That was achieved as follows:
Added a new IRGen pass PackMetadataMarkerInserter; it
- determines if there are any instructions which might allocate on-stack
pack metadata
- if there aren't, no changes are made
- if there are, alloc_pack_metadata just before instructions that could
allocate pack metadata on the stack and dealloc_pack_metadata on the
dominance frontier of those instructions
- fixup stack nesting
During IRGen, the allocations done for metadata/wtable packs are
recorded and IRGenSILFunction associates them with the instruction that
lowered. It must be the instruction after some alloc_pack_metadata
instruction. Then, when visiting the dealloc_pack_metadata instructions
corresponding to that alloc_pack_metadata, deallocate those packs.
In preparation for moving to llvm's opaque pointer representation
replace getPointerElementType and CreateCall/CreateLoad/Store uses that
dependent on the address operand's pointer element type.
This means an `Address` carries the element type and we use
`FunctionPointer` in more places or read the function type off the
`llvm::Function`.
On some Harvard architectures like WebAssembly that allow sliding code
and data address space offsets independently, it's impossible to make
direct relative reference to code from data because the relative offset
between them is not representable.
Use absolute function references instead of relative ones on such targets.
Adds two new IRGen-level builtins (one for allocating, the other for deallocating), a stdlib shim function for enhanced stack-promotion heuristics, and the proposed public stdlib functions.
This is to deal with the fact that LLVM's coroutine can't handle instructions
with side-effects well that are inserted before the coro.begin.

The immediate desire is to minimize the set of ABI dependencies
on the layout of an ExecutorRef. In addition to that, however,
I wanted to generally reduce the code size impact of an unsafe
continuation since it now requires accessing thread-local state,
and I wanted resumption to not have to create unnecessary type
metadata for the value type just to do the initialization.
Therefore, I've introduced a swift_continuation_init function
which handles the default initialization of a continuation
and returns a reference to the current task. I've also moved
the initialization of the normal continuation result into the
caller (out of the runtime), and I've moved the resumption-side
cmpxchg into the runtime (and prior to the task being enqueued).
Most of the async runtime functions have been changed to not
expect the task and executor to be passed in. When knowing the
task and executor is necessary, there are runtime functions
available to recover them.
The biggest change I had to make to a runtime function signature
was to swift_task_switch, which has been altered to expect to be
passed the context and resumption function instead of requiring
the caller to park the task. This has the pleasant consequence
of allowing the implementation to very quickly turn around when
it recognizes that the current executor is satisfactory. It does
mean that on arm64e we have to sign the continuation function
pointer as an argument and then potentially resign it when
assigning into the task's resume slot.

Previously, the error stored in the async context was of type SwiftError
*. In order to enable the context to be callee released, make it
indirect and change its type to SwiftError **.

For this, store those 3 values on the stack at function entry and update them with the return values of coro_suspend_async intrinsic calls.
This fixes a correctness issue, because the executor may be different after a resume.
It also is more efficient, because this means that the 3 values don't have to preserved in the context over a suspension point.
As part of concurrency bringup, some workarounds were put in place to
enable the async cc execution tests to continue to run while enabling
async function SIL verification (specifically, that an async function
must be called from an async function) to land before we have the
Task.runDetached mechanism. Specifically, these workaround allow @main
to be annotated @async but continue to be emitted as if it were not
@async.
Now that we have a better mechanism in the form of runAsync, use that
instead.

An AsyncFunctionPointer, defined in Task.h, is a struct consisting of
two i32s: (1) the relative address of the async function and (2) the
size of the async context to be allocated when calling that function.
Here, such structs are emitted for every async SILFunction that is
emitted.
Because all async functions have the same signature, namely
void(%swift.task*, %swift.executor*, %swift.context*)
it is always possible to provide access to the three argument values
(the current task, current executor, and current context) within an
IRGenFunction which is async. Here, that is provided in the form of
IRGenFunction::getAsyncExecutor,IRGenFunction::getAsyncContext, and
IRGenFunction::getAsyncTask.
Here, the following is implemented:
- Construction of SwiftContext struct with the fields needed for calling
functions.
- Allocating and deallocating these swift context via runtime calls
before calling async functions and after returning from them.
- Storing arguments (including bindings and the self parameter but not
including protocol fields for witness methods) and returns (both
direct and indirect).
- Calling async functions.
Additional things that still need to be done:
- protocol extension methods
- protocol witness methods
- storing yields
- partial applies
In too many places, we were calling into `emitDynamicTypeOfOpaqueHeapObject` even when we had
more specific type information about the heap object we were querying. Replace all calls with
`emitDynamicTypeOfHeapObject`, which uses the best available access path and completely avoids
runtime calls for pure Swift classes and heap objects. When targeting non-ObjC-interop platforms,
we also know we never need to call `swift_getObjectType`, so avoid doing so altogether.
This indicates that the "self" argument to the current function is always dynamically of the exact
static base class type, allowing metadata accesses in IRGen to use the local self metadata to answer
metadata requests for the class type. Set this attribute on allocating entry points of designated
inits, which is one of the most common places where we emit redundant metadata accesses.
Class methods always have a "self" argument that can be used to get the metadata of the dynamic
Self type, which in final classes is always the same as the statically-known base class. Use this
to avoid reconstructing the static base class type.
To display a failure message in the debugger, create a function in the debug info which has the name of the failure message.
The debug location of the trap/cond_fail is then wrapped into this function and the function is declared as "inlined".
In case the debugger stops at the trap instruction, it displays the inline function, which looks like the failure message.
For example:
* thread #1, queue = 'com.apple.main-thread', stop reason = EXC_BAD_INSTRUCTION (code=EXC_I386_INVOP, subcode=0x0)
frame #0: 0x0000000100000cbf a.out`testit3(_:) [inlined] Unexpectedly found nil while unwrapping an Optional value at test.swift:14:11 [opt]

12 @inline(never)
13 func testit(_ a: Int?) -> Int {
-> 14 return a!

This change is currently not enabled by default, but can be enabled with the option "-Xllvm -enable-trap-debug-info".
Enabling this feature needs some changes in lldb. When the lldb part is done, this option can be removed and the feature enabled by default.
