NOTE: I also added a partial_apply [guaranteed] test.
Whats interesting about these is that we only ever perform allocbox_to_stack if
we know that we are going to eliminate the allocbox completely. So if we break
dominance among some uses of the alloc box or insert destroy_value when we are
in non-ossa... it doesn't matter since we will eliminate the box and these uses
before the pass is done running.
This will harmless on the surface is an instance of the compiler being in a
"fixed point of correctness". This occurance is when the compiler implementation
is incorrect but the incorrectness is being hidden in the final output. If the
output of the compiler changes or the code in question is changed, new bugs can
be introduced due to the lack of preserving of standard invariants like
dominance.
I also added an additional helper: SILBuilder::insertAfter(SILValue). This
builds on Erik's commit that gave us insert(SILInstruction *). I wanted this
functionality, but additionally I wanted to make it so that if I had an
argument, I got back the first instruction in the block. So it was natural to
extend this to values.
* Don't always give shared linkage to spl functions
private functions on specialization were being given shared linkage.
Use swift::getSpecializeLinkage to correctly get the linkage for the
specialized function based on the linkage of the original function.
* Extend AllocBoxToStack to handle apply
AllocBoxToStack analyzes the uses of boxes and promotes them to stack if
it is safe to do so. Currently the analysis is limited to only a few known
users including partial_apply.
With this change, the pass also analyzes apply users, where the callee
is a local private function.
The analysis is recursive and bound by a threshold.

In order to allow this, I've had to rework the syntax of substituted function types; what was previously spelled `<T> in () -> T for <X>` is now spelled `@substituted <T> () -> T for <X>`. I think this is a nice improvement for readability, but it did require me to churn a lot of test cases.
Distinguishing the substitutions has two chief advantages over the existing representation. First, the semantics seem quite a bit clearer at use points; the `implicit` bit was very subtle and not always obvious how to use. More importantly, it allows the expression of generic function types that must satisfy a particular generic abstraction pattern, which was otherwise impossible to express.
As an example of the latter, consider the following protocol conformance:
```
protocol P { func foo() }
struct A<T> : P { func foo() {} }
```
The lowered signature of `P.foo` is `<Self: P> (@in_guaranteed Self) -> ()`. Without this change, the lowered signature of `A.foo`'s witness would be `<T> (@in_guaranteed A<T>) -> ()`, which does not preserve information about the conformance substitution in any useful way. With this change, the lowered signature of this witness could be `<T> @substituted <Self: P> (@in_guaranteed Self) -> () for <A<T>>`, which nicely preserves the exact substitutions which relate the witness to the requirement.
When we adopt this, it will both obviate the need for the special witness-table conformance field in SILFunctionType and make it far simpler for the SILOptimizer to devirtualize witness methods. This patch does not actually take that step, however; it merely makes it possible to do so.
As another piece of unfinished business, while `SILFunctionType::substGenericArgs()` conceptually ought to simply set the given substitutions as the invocation substitutions, that would disturb a number of places that expect that method to produce an unsubstituted type. This patch only set invocation arguments when the generic type is a substituted type, which we currently never produce in type-lowering.
My plan is to start by producing substituted function types for accessors. Accessors are an important case because the coroutine continuation function is essentially an implicit component of the function type which the current substitution rules simply erase the intended abstraction of. They're also used in narrower ways that should exercise less of the optimizer.
All the context dependencies in SIL type lowering have been eradicated, but IRGen's
type info lowering is still context-dependent and doesn't systemically pass generic
contexts around. Sink GenericContextScope bookkeeping entirely into IRGen for now.
https://forums.swift.org/t/improving-the-representation-of-polymorphic-interfaces-in-sil-with-substituted-function-types/29711
This prepares SIL to be able to more accurately preserve the calling convention of
polymorphic generic interfaces by letting the type system represent "substituted function types".
We add a couple of fields to SILFunctionType to support this:
- A substitution map, accessed by `getSubstitutions()`, which maps the generic signature
of the function to its concrete implementation. This will allow, for instance, a protocol
witness for a requirement of type `<Self: P> (Self, ...) -> ...` for a concrete conforming
type `Foo` to express its type as `<Self: P> (Self, ...) -> ... for <Foo>`, preserving the relation
to the protocol interface without relying on the pile of hacks that is the `witness_method`
protocol.
- A bool for whether the generic signature of the function is "implied" by the substitutions.
If true, the generic signature isn't really part of the calling convention of the function.
This will allow closure types to distinguish a closure being passed to a generic function, like
`<T, U> in (*T, *U) -> T for <Int, String>`, from the concrete type `(*Int, *String) -> Int`,
which will make it easier for us to differentiate the representation of those as types, for
instance by giving them different pointer authentication discriminators to harden arm64e
code.
This patch is currently NFC, it just introduces the new APIs and takes a first pass at updating
code to use them. Much more work will need to be done once we start exercising these new
fields.
This does bifurcate some existing APIs:
- SILFunctionType now has two accessors to get its generic signature.
`getSubstGenericSignature` gets the generic signature that is used to apply its
substitution map, if any. `getInvocationGenericSignature` gets the generic signature
used to invoke the function at apply sites. These differ if the generic signature is
implied.
- SILParameterInfo and SILResultInfo values carry the unsubstituted types of the parameters
and results of the function. They now have two APIs to get that type. `getInterfaceType`
returns the unsubstituted type of the generic interface, and
`getArgumentType`/`getReturnValueType` produce the substituted type that is used at
apply sites.
The specific types are:
* SmallVector{,Impl}
* SmallPtrSet{,Impl}
* StringRef
At the time AllocBoxToStack was not written, these containers had not been
injected into the swift namespace. They are now, so this commit just eliminates
the unnecessary llvm:: namespace in favor of referring to these containers
without qualification.
I also changed a SmallSet to be a SmallPtrSet. SmallSet's implementation just
delegates to SmallPtrSet anyways, so this just eliminates an anti-pattern.
The XXOptUtils.h convention is already established and parallels
the SIL/XXUtils convention.
New:
- InstOptUtils.h
- CFGOptUtils.h
- BasicBlockOptUtils.h
- ValueLifetime.h
Removed:
- Local.h
- Two conflicting CFG.h files
This reorganization is helpful before I introduce more
utilities for block cloning similar to SinkAddressProjections.
Move the control flow utilies out of Local.h, which was an
unreadable, unprincipled mess. Rename it to InstOptUtils.h, and
confine it to small APIs for working with individual instructions.
These are the optimizer's additions to /SIL/InstUtils.h.
Rename CFG.h to CFGOptUtils.h and remove the one in /Analysis. Now
there is only SIL/CFG.h, resolving the naming conflict within the
swift project (this has always been a problem for source tools). Limit
this header to low-level APIs for working with branches and CFG edges.
Add BasicBlockOptUtils.h for block level transforms (it makes me sad
that I can't use BBOptUtils.h, but SIL already has
BasicBlockUtils.h). These are larger APIs for cloning or removing
whole blocks.
This mostly requires changing various entry points to pass around a
TypeConverter instead of a SILModule. I've left behind entry points
that take a SILModule for a few methods like SILType::subst() to
avoid creating even more churn.
This flag is set by DefinitInitialization if the lifetime of the stored value is controlled dynamically.
If the flag is set, it's not (easily) possibly to statically calculate the lifetime of the stored value.
With the advent of dynamic_function_ref the actual callee of such a ref
my vary. Optimizations should not assume to know the content of a
function referenced by dynamic_function_ref. Introduce
getReferencedFunctionOrNull which will return null for such function
refs. And getInitialReferencedFunction to return the referenced
function.
Use as appropriate.

We've been running doxygen with the autobrief option for a couple of
years now. This makes the \brief markers into our comments
redundant. Since they are a visual distraction and we don't want to
encourage more \brief markers in new code either, this patch removes
them all.

Mostly functionally neutral:
- may fix latent bugs.
- may reduce useless basic blocks after inlining.
This rewrite encapsulates the cloner's internal state, providing a
clean API for the CRTP subclasses. The subclasses are rewritten to use
the exposed API and extension points. This makes it much easier to
understand, work with, and extend SIL cloners, which are central to
many optimization passes. Basic SIL invariants are now clearly
expressed and enforced. There is no longer a intricate dance between
multiple levels of subclasses operating on underlying low-level data
structures. All of the logic needed to keep the original SIL in a
consistent state is contained within the SILCloner itself. Subclasses
only need to be responsible for their own modifications.
The immediate motiviation is to make CFG updates self-contained so
that SIL remains in a valid state. This will allow the removal of
critical edge splitting hacks and will allow general SIL utilities to
take advantage of the fact that we don't allow critical edges.
This rewrite establishes a simple principal that should be followed
everywhere: aside from the primitive mutation APIs on SIL data types,
each SIL utility is responsibile for leaving SIL in a valid state and
the logic for doing so should exist in one central location.
This includes, for example:
- Generating a valid CFG, splitting edges if needed.
- Returning a valid instruction iterator if any instructions are removed.
- Updating dominance.
- Updating SSA (block arguments).
(Dominance info and SSA properties are fundamental to SIL verification).
LoopInfo is also somewhat fundamental to SIL, and should generally be
updated, but it isn't required.
This also fixes some latent bugs related to iterator invalidation in
recursivelyDeleteTriviallyDeadInstructions and SILInliner. Note that
the SILModule deletion callback should be avoided. It can be useful as
a simple cache invalidation mechanism, but it is otherwise bug prone,
too limited to be very useful, and basically bad design. Utilities
that mutate should return a valid instruction iterator and provide
their own deletion callbacks.
To do so this commit does a few different things:
1. I changed SILOptFunctionBuilder to notify the pass manager's logging
functionality when new functions are added to the module and to notify analyses
as well. NOTE: This on purpose does not put the new function on the pass manager
worklist since we do not want to by mistake introduce a large amount of
re-optimizations. Such a thing should be explicit.
2. I eliminated SILModuleTransform::notifyAddFunction. This just performed the
operations from 1. Now that SILOptFunctionBuilder performs this operation for
us, it is not needed.
3. I changed SILFunctionTransform::notifyAddFunction to just add the function to
the passmanager worklist. It does not need to notify the pass manager's logging
or analyses that a new function was added to the module since
SILOptFunctionBuilder now performs that operation. Given its reduced
functionality, I changed the name to addFunctionToPassManagerWorklist(...). The
name is a little long/verbose, but this is a feature since one should think
before getting the pass manager to rerun transforms on a function. Also, giving
it a longer name calls out the operation in the code visually, giving this
operation more prominance when reading code. NOTE: I did the rename using
Xcode's refactoring functionality!

I am going to add the code in a bit that does the notifications. I tried to pass
down the builder instead of the pass manager. I also tried not to change the
formatting.

Remove all the bespoke utilities for handling apply sites.
Use the ApplySite abstraction instead. As a side effect,
we can now properly analyze begin_apply and try_apply.
Fixes <rdar://problem/42815224> Swift CI: 2. Swift Source Compatibility Suite (master):
Kitura project fails with compiler crash
This will be properly fixed by rewriting the AllocBoxToStack utilities
in a follow up commit.
This commit does not modify those APIs or their usage. It just:
1. Moves the APIs onto SILFunctionBuilder and makes SILFunctionBuilder a friend
of SILModule.
2. Hides the APIs on SILModule so all users need to use SILFunctionBuilder to
create/destroy functions.
I am doing this in order to allow for adding/removing function notifications to
be enforced via the type system in the SILOptimizer. In the process of finishing
off CallerAnalysis for FSO, I discovered that we were not doing this everywhere
we need to. After considering various other options such as:
1. Verifying after all passes that the notifications were sent correctly and
asserting. Turned out to be expensive.
2. Putting a callback in SILModule. This would add an unnecessary virtual call.
I realized that by using a builder we can:
1. Enforce that users of SILFunctionBuilder can only construct composed function
builders by making the composed function builder's friends of
SILFunctionBuilder (notice I did not use the word subclass, I am talking
about a pure composition).
2. Refactor a huge amount of code in SILOpt/SILGen that involve function
creation onto a SILGenFunctionBuilder/SILOptFunctionBuilder struct. Many of
the SILFunction creation code in question are straight up copies of each
other with small variations. A builder would be a great way to simplify that
code.
3. Reduce the size of SILModule.cpp by 25% from ~30k -> ~23k making the whole
file easier to read.
NOTE: In this commit, I do not hide the constructor of SILFunctionBuilder since
I have not created the derived builder structs yet. Once I have created those in
a subsequent commit, I will hide that constructor.

At least most of these were latent bugs since the code was
unreachable in the PartialApply case. But that's no excuse to misuse
the API.
Also, whenever referring to an integer index, be explicit about
whether it is an applied argument or callee argument.
If the pass does not register a new function, that new function will never be
passed through the current function pipeline. We were getting lucky that enough
of the mandatory passes were module passes that it didn't seem to matter in
practice (until I convert them to function passes).
(after pass reorganization, a one line fix that doesn't rely on
outrageous changes to the pass' function signatures.)
In preparation for fixing a bug.
- Separate general SIL utilities, liveness, escape analysis,
and promotion.
- Give promotion routines access to the current pass.
Ideally, the current pass would be accessible via TLS. In the meantime,
pass routines should always have access to a state object that
encapsulates the pass information corresponding to a single invocation
of the pass.
Access to the pass' state should be consistent and idiomatic; it should
not depend on the where we are in the call stack. This makes the code much easier to understand and refactor, and it enables exploratory changes.
It's the correct thing to do, as we immediately switch the current
debug scope. In this case, it's NFC as the code was already doing
the right thing, but this is more concise/harder to get wrong.
We can just !SILFunction::hasQualifiedOwnership(). Plus as Andy pointed out,
even ignoring the functional aspects, having APIs with names this close can
create confusion.
introduce a common superclass, SILNode.
This is in preparation for allowing instructions to have multiple
results. It is also a somewhat more elegant representation for
instructions that have zero results. Instructions that are known
to have exactly one result inherit from a class, SingleValueInstruction,
that subclasses both ValueBase and SILInstruction. Some care must be
taken when working with SILNode pointers and testing for equality;
please see the comment on SILNode for more information.
A number of SIL passes needed to be updated in order to handle this
new distinction between SIL values and SIL instructions.
Note that the SIL parser is now stricter about not trying to assign
a result value from an instruction (like 'return' or 'strong_retain')
that does not produce any.
