If you have something like this:
protocol P {
associatedtype A : Q where Self == Self.A.B
}
protocol Q {
associatedtype B
}
class C : P {
typealias A = D
}
class D : P {
typealias B = C
}
The GSB would minimize the generic signature <T where T : P, T : C>
to <T where T == C>, because of the same-type requirement in
protocol P.
However in reality, the conformance 'C : P' is unsound, because it
is no longer covariant. I added a warning in commit d831eff74879cb.
Because the upcoming 'concrete contraction' pass eliminates 'T : P'
before homotopy reduction gets a chance to run, I'm changing the
Requirement Machine to produce a different minimization from the
GSB. This is technically an ABI break, but it should not impact any
real code in practice. If it does, I'll need to come up with a
different workaround in concrete contraction.
We want to prefer explicit rules when an explicit rule and non-explicit
rule conflict. Since the explicit bit hasn't been computed yet when
building the property map, save conflicting rule pairs in a side table,
and then process them later in homotopy reduction.
The side table will also be useful for diagnostics later.
This ensures we produce the same minimal signature as the GSB
in a couple of really silly examples where a superclass requirement
and a concrete type requirement imply each other.
Instead of keeping track of the best one so far, and unifying subsequent rules
against it.
This allows us to record more identities, fixing a regression from an earlier
change where we were unable to eliminate an obviously-redundant rule.
Types cannot contain Terms, so the Symbol representation uses
GenericTypeParameterTypes whose index refers to an array of
"substitution" Terms.
We can (ab)use the PrintOptions.AlternateTypeNames mechanism
to print those GenericTypeParamTypes as if they were Terms.
macine flags to callers.
Callers gate this decision on different flags; InferredGenericSignatureRequestRQM
needs RequirementMachineInferredSignatures to be enabled, and the other
callsites need RequirementMachineProtocolSignatures to be enabled.
The inverted form no longer has to replace substitutions; we use
the inverted form of DecomposeConcrete for that. So just assert
that the substitutions are equal.
Now that the PropertyMap to the concrete simplification version is optional,
we can just pass nullptr here to get the old behavior where type terms are
simplified to canonical anchors and no concrete simplification is performed.
When building a rewrite system for a generic signature or protocol,
we would add requirements from the requirement signature of every
protocol dependency. Now, also add protocol typealias rules as well.
The RequirementSignature generalizes the old ArrayRef<Requirement>
which stores the minimal requirements that a conforming type's
witnesses must satisfy, to also record the protocol typealiases
defined in the protocol.
Introduces rewrite rules for typealiases defined inside the protocol
itself.
Typealiases defined in protocol extensions do not participate
in the rewrite system, except for when they have the same name as
an associated type, as per the weird rule codified in the
TypeAliasRequirementsRequest for GSB compatibility.
Now that we can detect protocol typealias rules, collect and keep
track of them so that they can be recorded in protocol requirement
signatures.
For now, this is all NFC since nothing introduces such rules into
the rewrite system, except for invalid requirements which are
diagnosed anyway.
There are two kinds of protocol typealiases:
1) The underlying type is a type parameter. These rules look like
[P].A => X where X is the underlying type.
2) The underlying type is a concrete type. These rules look like
[P].A.[concrete: C] => [P].A.
The isProtocolTypeAliasRule() predicate detects both cases and
returns the type alias name ('A', in the above examples). For now
it's not used anywhere, since we don't actually introduce these
rules for any reason.
We want a term with more name symbols to order after a term with
fewer name symbols, even if the term with more name symbols is
shorter. That is,
[P].A > [P:X].[Q:Y].[R:Z]
This is in support of handling protocol typealiases.
