Previously often times when casting a value, we would just pass along the
cleanup of the uncasted value. With semantic SIL this is no longer correct since
the cleanup now needs to be on the cast result.
This caused problems for certain usages of Builtin.castToNativeObject(...) by
the stdlib. Specifically, the stdlib was using this on AnyObject values that
were not necessarily native. Since we were recreating the cleanup on the native
value, a swift native release was being used =><=.
In this commit I solve this problem by:
1. Adding an assert in Builtin.castToNativeObject(...) that ensures that any value
passed to Builtin.castToNativeObject() is known conservatively to use swift
native reference counting.
2. I changed all uses where we do not have a precondition of a native ref
counting type to use Builtin.castToUnknownObject(...).
3. I added a new Builtin called Builtin.unsafeCastToNativeObject(...) that does
not have the compile time check. I used this to rewrite callsites in the stdlib
where we know via preconditions that an AnyObject will dynamically always be
native.

* replace unused closure parameters with '_' in stdlib source
* fold some _ closure arguments into line above
* fold more _ closure arguments into line above
This revises and expands upon documentation for the standard library's
unsafe pointer types. This includes typed and raw pointers and buffers,
the MemoryLayout type, and some other top-level functions.
... instead of ManagedBufferPointer.
This is what we already did for Array, Set and Dictionary.
The intention is to simplify the generated SIL which is generated for ManagedBuffer operations.
Implements part of SE-0110. Single argument in closures will not be accepted if
there exists explicit type with a number of arguments that's not 1.
```swift
let f: (Int, Int) -> Void = { x in } // this is now an error
```
Note there's a second part of SE-0110 which could be considered additive,
which says one must add an extra pair of parens to specify a single arugment
type that is a tuple:
```swift
let g ((Int, Int)) -> Void = { y in } // y should have type (Int, Int)
```
This patch does not implement that part.
As of now:
* old APIs are just marked as `deprecated` not `unavaiable`. To make it
easier to co-operate with other toolchain repos.
* Value variant of API is implemented as public @private
`_ofInstance(_:)`.
Update for SE-0107: UnsafeRawPointer
This adds a "mutating" initialize to UnsafePointer to make
Immutable -> Mutable conversions explicit.
These are quick fixes to stdlib, overlays, and test cases that are necessary
in order to remove arbitrary UnsafePointer conversions.
Many cases can be expressed better up by reworking the surrounding
code, but we first need a working starting point.
We can express the same using the `isUniquelyReferencedNonObjC` API.
- Rename `isUniquelyReferencedNonObjC` to `isKnownUniquelyReferenced`.
- Cleanup `ManagedBufferPointer` by removing holdsUniqueOrPinnedReference` and
renaming `holdsUniqueReference` to `isUniqueReference`.
- No longer promise to return false from `isKnownUniquelyReferenced` for @objc
class instances.

* Add UnsafeRawPointer type and API.
As proposed in SE-0107: UnsafeRawPointer.
https://github.com/apple/swift-evolution/blob/master/proposals/0107-unsaferawpointer.md
The fundamental difference between Unsafe[Mutable]RawPointer and
Unsafe[Mutable]Pointer<Pointee> is simply that the former is used for "untyped"
memory access, and the later is used for "typed" memory access. Let's refer to
these as "raw pointers" and "typed pointers". Because operations on raw pointers
access untyped memory, the compiler cannot make assumptions about the underlying
type of memory and must be conservative. With operations on typed pointers, the
compiler may make strict assumptions about the type of the underlying memory,
which allows more aggressive optimization.
Memory can only be accessed by a typed pointer when it is currently
bound to the Pointee type. Memory can be bound to type `T` via:
- `UnsafePointer<T>.allocate(capacity: n)`
- `UnsafePointer<Pointee>.withMemoryRebound(to: T.self, capacity: n) {...}`
- `UnsafeMutableRawPointer.initializeMemory(as: T.self, at: i, count: n, to: x)`
- `UnsafeMutableRawPointer.initializeMemory(as: T.self, from: p, count: n)`
- `UnsafeMutableRawPointer.moveInitializeMemory(as: T.self, from: p, count: n)`
- `UnsafeMutableRawPointer.bindMemory(to: T.self, capacity: n)`
Mangle UnsafeRawPointer as predefined substitution 'Sv' for Swift void
pointer ([urp] are taken).
* UnsafeRawPointer minor improvements.
Incorporate Dmitri's feedback.
Properly use a _memmove helper.
Add load/storeBytes alignment precondition checks.
Reword comments.
Demangler tests.
* Fix name mangling test cases.
* Fix bind_memory specialization.
Due to a modeling error in the type checker's folding of type
references into type expressions, code such as "strideof(Int)" would
be accepted without the required ".self". Commit
4a60b6cbf4 fixes the modeling issue but
left the historical accepts-invalid; now, diagnose these cases with a
warning + Fix-It to ease the transition.
Fixes SR-899.
@noescape. It doesn't escape the parameter, and callers are passing their
@noescape values down to it. This isn't being caught so far due to a bug
in the type checker that is about to be fixed.
This is a staging attribute that will eventually mean "fixed-contents"
for structs and "closed" for enums, as described in
docs/LibraryEvolution.rst.
This is pretty much the minimal set of types that must be fixed-layout,
because SILGen makes assumptions about their lowering.
If desired, some SILGen refactoring can allow some of these to be
resilient. For example, bridging value types could be made to work
with resilient types.
This is more or less a workaround for some optimizations (mainly ARC opt) to avoid performance degradation with the upcoming inliner changes
In some situations it makes a big difference for ARC opt if a function is inlined or not, althought this shouldn't be the case.
