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.
rdar://problem/15617914
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.
rdar://problem/22749732
Since that's somewhat expensive, allow the generation of meaningful
IR value names to be efficiently controlled in IRGen. By default,
enable meaningful value names only when generating .ll output.
I considered giving protocol witness tables the name T:Protocol
instead of T.Protocol, but decided that I didn't want to update that
many test cases.
Finishes up https://bugs.swift.org/browse/SR-280. At this point, nothing
should be passing O(N) arguments on the command line, where N is the
number of input source files, unless N is small.
(There are other inputs which are passed through to subtools, and these
are not put into filelists. That's fine.)
With this, we're out of the business of passing large numbers of input
files on the command line to the frontend, which means we no longer
overflow argv with a mere 1100 input files under whole-module optimization.
In order to make sure this doesn't happen again, I'd like to also get
this working for
- swiftmodule inputs to the merge-module build phase
- /output/ files for multithreading single-frontend builds (WMO)
- object file inputs to the linker on OS X (response files for binutils
ld have different quoting rules)
Part 3 of https://bugs.swift.org/browse/SR-280.
This times each phase of compilation, so you can see where time is being
spent. This doesn't cover all of compilation, but does get all the major
work being done.
Note that these times are non-overlapping, and should stay that way.
If we add more timers, they should go in a different timer group, so we
don't end up double-counting.
Based on a patch by @cwillmor---thanks, Chris!

We've already got -enable-resilience and @_fixed_layout to compare
IRGen differences when lowering super_method instructions, so nuke
the -force-resilient-super-dispatch testing flag. While
we're at it, consolidate the super tests a bit.
We only need to indirectly load the superclass's metadata when the
superclass is resilient. For example, we may be calling a super method
inside an extension of a class we don't own. Otherwise, we can
immediately load the statically known superclass.
Adds a testing flag to force resilient super dispatch, since the
IRGen module resilience checks aren't fully implemented yet.
SIL -> IR tests added.
rdar://problem/22749732
Also fixes rdar://problem/23884670
We decided not to support "implicit" properties, where we import
getter/setter pairs as properties. Rather, we only import a property
when there is an explicit "@property" in Objective-C. Remove the flag
and supporting code for implicit properties.
Use the `super_method` instruction for non-final `func` and `class func`
declarations in native Swift classes. Previously, we would always emit
a static `function_ref` for these, which prevents resilient dynamic
dispatch.
This is hidden behind a -use-native-super-dispatch flag while I
survey the effects on devirtualization and stack promotion. When
that's figured out, I'll add more tests and update test cases that
still assume static dispatch.

A fixed layout type is one about which the compiler is allowed to
make certain assumptions across resilience domains. The assumptions
will be documented elsewhere, but for the purposes of this patch
series, they will include:
- the size of the type
- offsets of stored properties
- whether accessed properties are stored or computed
When -enable-resilience is passed to the frontend, all types become
resilient unless annotated with the @fixed_layout attribute.
So far, the @fixed_layout attribute only comes into play in SIL type
lowering of structs and enums, which now become address-only unless
they are @fixed_layout. For now, @fixed_layout is also allowed on
classes, but has no effect. In the future, support for less resilient
type lowering within a single resilience domain will be added, with
appropriate loads and stores in function prologs and epilogs.
Resilience is not enabled by default, which gives all types fixed
layout and matches the behavior of the compiler today. Since
we do not want the -enable-resilience flag to change the behavior
of existing compiled modules, only the currently-compiling module,
Sema adds the @fixed_layout flag to all declarations when the flag
is off. To reduce the size of .swiftmodule files, this could become
a flag on the module itself in the future.
The reasoning behind this is that the usual case is building
applications and private frameworks, where there is no need to make
anything resilient.
For the standard library, we can start out with resilience disabled,
while perfoming an audit adding @fixed_layout annotations in the
right places. Once the implementation is robust enough we can then
build the standard library with resilience enabled.
