All modules on Windows need to link against one of {libcmtd.lib, libcmt.lib,
msvcrtd.lib, msvcrt.lib}. In addition to being the C library, it is the
equivalent of crtbegin0.o on other targets. It is responsible for providing the
entry point itself. Traditionally, cl will embed the linkage requirement into
all objects based on the flags given -- one of {/MTd, /MT, /MDd, /MD}. clang
emulates this via the `--dependent-lib=` option. Emulate that behaviour in the
swift driver so that swift objects being compiled for Windows targets can
auto-link to the required libraries.
Background
----------
Now that Swift AST type support in LLDB has matured, we can stop emitting DWARF
type information by default to reduce compile time and ibject file size.
A future commit will change -g to emit only AST type references.
The full set of debug options will be
-gnone
-gline-tables-only
-g // AST types (= everything that LLDB needs)
-gdwarf-types // AST types + DWARF types (for legacy debuggers)
Goes back to Swift 2.2 behavior of treating the 'typealias' keyword inside a protocol as a deprecated form of an associatedtype. To get the newer (but still partly buggy) behavior of treating it as an actual typealias, add "-Xfrontend -enable-protocol-typealiases" to the compile invocation. 'decl/typealias/typealias.swift' now uses this flag to continue testing the enabled behavior.
"Sanitizer Coverage" with a new flag ``-sanitize-coverage=``. This
flag is analogous to Clang's ``-fsanitize-coverage=``.
This instrumentation currently requires ASan or TSan to be enabled
because the module pass created by ``createSanitizerCoverageModulePass()``
inserts calls into functions found in compiler-rt's "sanitizer_common".
"sanitizer_common" is not shipped as an individual library but instead
exists in several of the sanitizer runtime libraries so we have to
link with one of them to avoid linking errors.
The rationale between adding this feature is to allow experimentation
with libFuzzer which currently relies on "Sanitizer Coverage"
instrumentation.
This is a /slightly/ more user-friendly option than
-debug-time-function-bodies; pass it a limit in milliseconds and
the compiler will warn whenever a function or multi-statement closure
takes longer than that to type-check.
Since it's a frontend option (and thus usually passed with -Xfrontend),
I went with the "joined" syntax as the common case. The usual "separate"
syntax of "-warn-long-function-bodies <N>" is also available.
As a frontend option, this is UNSUPPORTED and may be removed without
notice at any future date.
Additional caveats:
- Other parts of type-checking not measured by this may also be slow.
- May include first-use penalties (i.e. "this is slow because it's
the first function that references an imported type, which causes
many things to be imported")
- Does not report anything whatsoever about other phases of compilation
(SILGen, optimization, IRGen, assembly emission, whatever).
- Does not catch anything accidentally being type-checked multiple times
(a known issue for initial value expressions on properties).
This is a squash of the following commits:
* [SE-0054] Import function pointer arg, return types, typedefs as optional
IUOs are only allowed on function decl arguments and return types, so
don't import typedefs or function pointer args or return types as IUO.
* [SE-0054] Only allow IUOs in function arg and result type.
When validating a TypeRepr, raise a diagnostic if an IUO is found
anywhere other thn the top level or as a function parameter or return
tpye.
* [SE-0054] Disable inference of IUOs by default
When considering a constraint of the form '$T1 is convertible to T!',
generate potential bindings 'T' and 'T?' for $T1, but not 'T!'. This
prevents variables without explicit type information from ending up with
IUO type. It also prevents implicit instantiation of functions and types
with IUO type arguments.
* [SE-0054] Remove the -disable-infer-iuos flag.
* Add nonnull annotations to ObjectiveCTests.h in benchmark suite.
On the Raspberry Pi 2 when trying to import Glibc, without this patch, it will attempt to
find the module map at "/usr/lib/swift/linux/armv7l/glibc.modulemap" and
fail to do so.
With this patch it will attempt to find the module map at
"/usr/lib/swift/linux/armv7/glibc.modulemap" where it will succeed in
finding the module map.
Similar behavior currently happens in the Driver and Frontend. To DRY up
this behavior it has been extracted to the Swift platform.
These types are not directly referenced as fields of aggregate types,
but are needed for reflection type lowering.
Also, use a SetVector to collect referenced builtin types, instead of
a SmallPtrSet, to ensure compiler output is deterministic.
If this option is enabled, when generating potential bindings for a type
variable, don't propagate IUO type. Instead try the optional type and
the underlying type. This way, untyped bindings will not be given IUO
type when they are initialized with exprs of IUO type.
This change follows up on an idea from Michael (thanks!).
It enables debugging and profiling on SIL level, which is useful for compiler debugging.
There is a new frontend option -gsil which lets the compiler write a SIL file and generated debug info for it.
For details see docs/DebuggingTheCompiler.rst and the comments in SILDebugInfoGenerator.cpp.
Currently IRGen stores hashes of the bitcode generated by swift in object files.
This is then used to reduce compile time by not re-codegening if a subsequent
compilation yields a bit code with the same hash.
This is good for users and general compilation, but can result in confusion when
attempting to measure the "real" compile time of the compiler.
By default it is off.
ASan allows to catch and diagnose memory corruption errors, which are possible
when using unsafe pointers.
This patch introduces a new driver/frontend option -sanitize=address to enable
ASan. When option is passed in, the ASan llvm passes will be turned on and
all functions will gain SanitizeAddress llvm attribute.
Since the feature is incomplete and yet to be accepted or implemented as proposed, hide it behind an -enable-experimental-property-behaviors frontend flag.
* Replace 'Fast' with 'Unchecked' everywhere.
* Update the help text to specify DisableReplacement rather than
Replacement and to document Unchecked.
* Simplify tests slightly and add a tests for Unchecked.
...because "build configuration" is already the name of an Xcode feature.
- '#if' et al are "conditional compilation directives".
- The condition is a "conditional compilation expression", or just
"condition" if it's obvious.
- The predicates are "platform conditions" (including 'swift(>=...)')
- The options set with -D are "custom conditional compilation flags".
(Thanks, Kevin!)
I left "IfConfigDecl" as is, as well as SourceKit's various "BuildConfig"
settings because some of them are part of the SourceKit request format.
We can change these in follow-up commits, or not.

- Implement emission of type references for nominal type field
reflection, using a small custom encoder resulting in packed
structs, not strings. This will let us embed 7-bit encoded
32-bit relative offsets directly in the structure (not yet
hooked in).
- Use the AST Mangler for encoding type references
Archetypes and internal references were complicating this before, so we
can take the opportunity to reuse this machinery and avoid unique code
and new ABI.
Next up: Tests for reading the reflection sections and converting the
demangle tree into a tree of type references.
Todo: For concrete types, serialize the types for associated types of
their conformances to bootstrap the typeref substitution process.

This controls emission of field metadata for reflection, providing
the default decision. We might want to explore finer-grained
control per type, likely as a source code annotation.
-strip-field-names
Strip field names from nominal type metadata.
-strip-field-metadata
Strip all field metadata for nominal types. This also implies
-strip-field-names.
NFC yet.
Although omit-needless-words is almost entirely a Clang importer task,
there are a handful of other places in the compiler that will need to
query this flag as well. NFC for now; those changes will come soon.
Since resilience is a property of the module being compiled,
not decls being accessed, we need to record which types are
resilient as part of the module.
Previously we would only ever look at the @_fixed_layout
attribute on a type. If the flag was not specified, Sema
would slap this attribute on every type that gets validated.
This is wasteful for non-resilient builds, because there
all types get the attribute. It was also apparently wrong,
and I don't fully understand when Sema decides to validate
which decls.
It is much cleaner conceptually to just serialize this flag
with the module, and check for its presence if the
attribute was not found on a type.
Exposes the global warning suppression and treatment as errors
functionality to the Swift driver. Introduces the flags
"-suppress-warnings" and "-warnings-as-errors". Test case include.
This removes the -use-native-super-method flag and turns on dynamic
dispatch for native method invocations on super by default.
