The SIL parser used PolymorphicFunctionType in two places:
- Internals of SILFunctionType parsing
- Overload selection for class_method / super_method / dynamic_method
instructions
It is better to have Sema construct GenericFunctionType directly
in SIL mode. In particular, the overload selection logic is simpler
now, since it does not have to deal with the fact that
PolymorphicFunctionTypes do not canonicalize.
Mostly NFC, except the SIL printer output is a bit different; for a
generic method on a generic type, the type parameters all come first,
like ``<T><U> G<T> -> (U) -> ()'' -vs- ``<T> G<T> -> <U> (U) -> ()''.
Also, generic constraints look different, instead of ``<`Self` : P>``
we now have ``<Self where Self : P>''.
This patch has two consequences that will become important later:
- While code that constructs PolymorphicFunctionType still exists in
Sema, the SIL parser was the last major component that *consumed*
PolymorphicFunctionType.
- Everywhere we set SILFunction::ContextGenericParams, we now have
a well-formed context GenericSignature available, allowing
ContextGenericParams to be replaced by a GenericSignature
eventually.
As part of SE-0022, introduce an 'objc_selector' encoding for string
literals that places the UTF-8 string literal into the appropriate
segment for uniquing of Objective-C selector names.
As there are no instructions left which produce multiple result values, this is a NFC regarding the generated SIL and generated code.
Although this commit is large, most changes are straightforward adoptions to the changes in the ValueBase and SILValue classes.
The main idea here is that we really, really want to be
able to recover the protocol requirement of a conformance
reference even if it's abstract due to the conforming type
being abstract (e.g. an archetype). I've made the conversion
from ProtocolConformance* explicit to discourage casual
contamination of the Ref with a null value.
As part of this change, always make conformance arrays in
Substitutions fully parallel to the requirements, as opposed
to occasionally being empty when the conformances are abstract.
As another part of this, I've tried to proactively fix
prospective bugs with partially-concrete conformances, which I
believe can happen with concretely-bound archetypes.
In addition to just giving us stronger invariants, this is
progress towards the removal of the archetype from Substitution.
If a global variable in a module we are compiling has a type containing
a resilient value type from a different module, we don't know the size
at compile time, so we cannot allocate storage for the global statically.
Instead, we will use a buffer, just like alloc_stack does for archetypes
and resilient value types.
This adds a new SIL instruction but does not yet make use of it.
This is something that we have wanted for a long time and will enable us to
remove some hacks from the compiler (i.e. how we determine in the ARC optimizer
that we have "fatalError" like function) and also express new things like
"noarc".
This is necessary for some other work I'm doing, which really wants
paramdecls to have reasonable declcontexts. It is also a small step
towards generic subscripts.
Debug variable info may be attached to debug_value, debug_value_addr,
alloc_box, and alloc_stack instructions.
In order to write textual SIL -> SIL testcases that exercise the handling
of debug information by SIL passes, we need to make a couple of additions
to the textual SIL language. In memory, the debug information attached to
SIL instructions references information from the AST. If we want to create
debug info from parsing a textual .sil file, these bits need to be made
explicit.
Performance Notes: This is memory neutral for compilations from Swift
source code, because the variable name is still stored in the AST. For
compilations from textual source the variable name is stored in tail-
allocated memory following the SIL instruction that introduces the
variable.

There's a buggy SIL verifier check that was previously tautological,
and it turns out that it's violated, apparently harmlessly. Since it
was already doing nothing, I've commented it out temporarily while
I figure out the right way to fix SILGen to get the invariant right.
This commit adds a DebugVariable field that is shared by
- AllocBoxInst
- AllocStackInst
- DebugValueInst
- DebugValueAddrInst
Currently DebugVariable only holds the Swift argument number.
This allows us to retire several expensive heuristics in IRGen that
attempted to identify which local variables actually where arguments
and recover their relative order.
Memory footprint notes:
This commit adds a 4-byte field to 4 SILInstructin subclasses.
This was offset by 8ab1e2dd50
which removed 20 bytes from *every* SILInstruction.
Caveats:
This commit surfaces a known bug in FunctionSigantureOpts, tracked in
rdar://problem/23727705 — debug info for exploded function arguments
cannot be expressed until this is fixed.
This reapplies ed2b16dc5a with a bugfix for
generic function arrguments and an additional testcase.

SILPrinter was printing uses for all SIL values, except for SIL basic blocks arguments. Fill the gap and print uses for BB arguments as well. This makes reading and analyzing SIL easier.
Basic blocks may have multiple arguments, therefore print uses of each BB argument on separate lines - one line per BB argument.
The comment containing information about uses of a BB argument is printed on the line just above the basic block name, following the approach used for function_ref and other kinds of instructions, which have additional information printed on the line above the actual instruction.
The output now looks like:
// %0 // user: %3
// %1 // user: %9
bb0(%0 : $Int32, %1 : $UnsafeMutablePointer<UnsafeMutablePointer<Int8>>):

If the compiler can prove that a throwing function actually does not throw it can
replace a try_apply with an "apply [nothrow]". Such an apply_inst calls a function
with an error result but does not have the overhead of checking for the error case.
Currently this flag is not set, yet.

dealloc_ref [destructor] is the existing behavior. It expects the
reference count to have reached zero and the isDeallocating bit to
be set.
The new [constructor] variant first drops the initial strong
reference.
This allows DI to properly free uninitialized instances in
constructors. Previously this would fail with an assertion if the
runtime was built with debugging enabled.
Progress on <rdar://problem/21991742>.

This flag is required for performing the propagation of global and static "let" values into their uses.
Let variables have now a [let] attribute in the SIL textual form.

We need a SIL level unsafe cast that supports arbitrary usage of
UnsafePointer, generalizes Builtin.reinterpretCast, and has the same
semantics on generic vs. nongeneric code. In other words, we need to
be able to promote the cast of an address type to the cast of an
object type without changing semantics, and that cast needs to support
types that are not layout identical.
This patch introduces an unchecked_bitwise_cast instruction for that
purpose. It is different from unsafe_addr_cast, which has been our
fall-back "unknown" cast in the past. With unchecked_bitwise_cast we
cannot assume layout or RC identity. The cast implies a store and
reload of the value to obtain the low order bytes. I know that
bit_cast is just an abbreviation for bitwise_cast, but we use
"bitcast" throught to imply copying a same sized value. No one could
come up with a better name for copying an objects low bytes via:
@addr = alloca $wideTy
store @addr, $wideTy
load @addr, $narrowTy
Followup patches will optimize unchecked_bitwise_cast into more
semantically useful unchecked casts when enough type information is
present. This way, the optimizer will rarely need to be taught about
the bitwise case.

Still no implementation yet; we'll need to renovate how boxes work a bit to make them projectable (and renovate SILGen to generate typed boxes for the insn to be useful).

This reverts commit r29475 because it conflicts with reverting r29474,
and it looks like that commit is breaking the build of the SpriteKit
