Throwing functions pass the error result in `swiftself` to the resume
partial function.
Therefore, `() async -> ()` to `() async throws -> ()` is not ABI compatible.
TODO: go through remaining failing IRGen async tests and replace the
illegal convert_functions.
Most of the async runtime functions have been changed to not
expect the task and executor to be passed in. When knowing the
task and executor is necessary, there are runtime functions
available to recover them.
The biggest change I had to make to a runtime function signature
was to swift_task_switch, which has been altered to expect to be
passed the context and resumption function instead of requiring
the caller to park the task. This has the pleasant consequence
of allowing the implementation to very quickly turn around when
it recognizes that the current executor is satisfactory. It does
mean that on arm64e we have to sign the continuation function
pointer as an argument and then potentially resign it when
assigning into the task's resume slot.

First, just call an async -> T function instead of forcing the caller
to piece together which case we're in and perform its own copy. This
ensures that the task is actually kept alive properly.
Second, now that we no longer implicitly depend on the waiting tasks
being run synchronously, go ahead and schedule them to run on the
global executor.
This solves some problems which were blocking the work on TLS-ifying
the task/executor state.
This is conditional on UseAsyncLowering and in the future should also be
conditional on `clangTargetInfo.isSwiftAsyncCCSupported()` once that
support is merged.
Update tests to work either with swiftcc or swifttailcc.
Previously, the error stored in the async context was of type SwiftError
*. In order to enable the context to be callee released, make it
indirect and change its type to SwiftError **.

This adds new kinds of link entities corresponding to the three
dispatch thunk link entity kinds:
- DispatchThunkAsyncFunctionPointer
- DispatchThunkInitializerAsyncFunctionPointer
- DispatchThunkAllocatorAsyncFunctionPointer
In derivatives of loops, no longer allocate boxes for indirect case payloads. Instead, use a custom pullback context in the runtime which contains a bump-pointer allocator.
When a function contains a differentiated loop, the closure context is a `Builtin.NativeObject`, which contains a `swift::AutoDiffLinearMapContext` and a tail-allocated top-level linear map struct (which represents the linear map struct that was previously directly partial-applied into the pullback). In branching trace enums, the payloads of previously indirect cases will be allocated by `swift::AutoDiffLinearMapContext::allocate` and stored as a `Builtin.RawPointer`.
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.
`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...
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 majority of support comes in the form of emitting partial
application forwarders for partial applications of async functions.
Such a partial application forwarder must take an async context which
has been partially populated at the apply site. It is responsible for
populating it "the rest of the way". To do so, like sync partial
application forwarders, it takes a second argument, its context, from
which it pulls the additional arguments which were capture at
partial_apply time.
The size of the async context that is passed to the forwarder, however,
can't be known at the apply site by simply looking at the signature of
the function to be applied (not even by looking at the size associated
with the function in the special async function pointer constant which
will soon be emitted). The reason is that there are an unknown (at the
apply site) number of additional arguments which will be filled by the
partial apply forwarder (and in the case of repeated partial
applications, further filled in incrementally at each level). To enable
this, there will always be a heap object for thick async functions.
These heap objects will always store the size of the async context to be
allocated as their first element. (Note that it may be possible to
apply the same optimization that was applied for thick sync functions
where a single refcounted object could be used as the context; doing so,
however, must be made to interact properly with the async context size
stored in the heap object.)
To continue to allow promoting thin async functions to thick async
functions without incurring a thunk, at the apply site, a null-check
will be performed on the context pointer. If it is null, then the async
context size will be determined based on the signature. (When async
function pointers become pointers to a constant with a size i32 and a
relative address to the underlying function, the size will be read from
that constant.) When it is not-null, the size will be pulled from the
first field of the context (which will in that case be cast to
<{%swift.refcounted, i32}>).
To facilitate sharing code and preserving the original structure of
emitPartialApplicationForwarder (which weighed in at roughly 700 lines
prior to this change), a new small class hierarchy, descending from
PartialApplicationForwarderEmission has been added, with subclasses for
the sync and async case. The shuffling of arguments into and out of the
final explosion that was being performed in the synchronous case has
been preserved there, though the arguments are added and removed through
a number of methods on the superclass with more descriptive names. That
was necessary to enable the async class to handle these different
flavors of parameters correctly.
To get some initial test coverage, the preexisting
IRGen/partial_apply.sil and IRGen/partial_apply_forwarder.sil tests have
been duplicated into the async folder. Those tests cases within these
files which happened to have been crashing have each been extracted into
its own runnable test that both verifies that the compiler does not
crash and also that the partial application forwarder behaves correctly.
The FileChecks in these tests are extremely minimal, providing only
enough information to be sure that arguments are in fact squeezed into
an async context.
Partial applies of methods supply only self. When applies of the
resulting thick function are performed, that self was one of the
arguments is not known. As a result, self must appear after the fields
that might be supplied at the apply site, which is to say all the
arguments.
Bindings will always be supplied by the first partial apply, so they
will only be added to the async context when its full layout is known.
If they are earlier in the layout, subsequent partial applies will put
their arguments into the wrong position because they will not be privy
to the space requirements of the bindings.
For callers who do not know the actual type of the called function, e.g.
when the called function is the result of a partial apply, the offset to
the direct returns would otherwise not be known.
Previously, the AsyncContextLayout did not make space for the trailing
witness fields (self metadata and self witness table) and the
AsyncNativeCCEntryPointArgumentEmission could consequently not vend
these fields. Here, the fields are added to the layout.
Previously the methods for getting the index into the layout were public
and were being used to directly access the underlying buffer. Here,
that abstraction leakage is fixed and field access is forced to go
through the appropriate methods.
Here, the following is implemented:
- Construction of SwiftContext struct with the fields needed for calling
functions.
- Allocating and deallocating these swift context via runtime calls
before calling async functions and after returning from them.
- Storing arguments (including bindings and the self parameter but not
including protocol fields for witness methods) and returns (both
direct and indirect).
- Calling async functions.
Additional things that still need to be done:
- protocol extension methods
- protocol witness methods
- storing yields
- partial applies

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.
