Thick async functions store their async context size in the closure
context. Only if the closure context is nil can we assume the
partial_apply_forwarder function to be the address of an async function
pointer struct value.
Previously, the thick context was passed as a fourth parameter to
partial apply forwarders. Here, the thick context is instead moved into
the async context at the local context position. To support this, the
local context is made always available.
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.
CfgTraits was reverted almost two weeks ago upstream but will presumably
come back. See: e025d09b216dc2239e1b502f4f277abb6fb4648a
The PPC MMA clang types were added nine days ago.
The stdlib is still crashing deep in LLVM:
```
swifterror value can only be loaded and stored from, or as a swifterror argument!
%swift.error** %2
%7 = bitcast %swift.error** %2 to %swift.opaque*
in function $ss7DecoderP16unkeyedContainers015UnkeyedDecodingC0_pyKFTj
```
From a lldb session, the function in question:
```

`Builtin.createAsyncTask` takes flags, an optional parent task, and an
async/throwing function to execute, and passes it along to the
`swift_task_create_f` entry point to create a new (potentially child)
task, returning the new task and its initial context.
Implement a new builtin, `cancelAsyncTask()`, to cancel the given
asynchronous task. This lowers down to a call into the runtime
operation `swift_task_cancel()`.
Use this builtin to implement Task.Handle.cancel().
The commit with the following message wasn't previously formatted. That
oversight is fixed here.
[NFC] Construct AsyncContextLayout from module.
Previously, an IRGenFunction was being passed to the functions that
construct an AsyncContextLayout. That was not actually necessary and
prevented construction of the layout in contexts where no IRGenFunction
was present. Here that requirement is eased to requiring an IRGenModule
which is indeed required to construct an AsyncContextLayout.

The following fields are now available when the function is a coroutine:
- TaskContinuationFunction * __ptrauth(...) yieldToCaller?
- TaskContinuationFunction * __ptrauth(...) resumeFromYield?
- TaskContinuationFunction * __ptrauth(...) abortFromYield?
- ExecutorRef calleeActorDuringYield?
- YieldTypes yieldValues...
These fields have yet to be filled in.
The following field are now available when the function is NOT a
coroutine (whereas previously they were always available):
- ResultTypes directResults...
When an async function is called from an async function, the caller
stores its own executor into the the callee's context in the
ResumeParentExecutor field.
Previously, a null task was always passed to
swift_task_alloc/swift_task_dealloc. Now that the current task is
available as one of the arguments to every async function, pass that
value along to the runtime de/allocation functions.
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.
The previous stage of bringup only had async functions taking a single
argument: the async context. The next stage will involve the task and
executor. Here, arguments are added for those values. To begin with,
null is always passed for these values.
