Not sure why but this was another "toxic utility method".
Most of the usages fell into one of three categories:
- The base value was always non-null, so we could just call
getCanonicalType() instead, making intent more explicit
- The result was being compared for equality, so we could
skip canonicalization and call isEqual() instead, removing
some boilerplate
- Utterly insane code that made no sense
There were only a couple of legitimate uses, and even there
open-coding the conditional null check made the code clearer.
Also while I'm at it, make the SIL open archetypes tracker
more typesafe by passing around ArchetypeType * instead of
Type and CanType.
We preserve the current behavior of assuming Any ownership always and use
default arguments to hide this change most of the time. There are asserts now in
the SILBasicBlock::{create,replace,insert}{PHI,Function}Argument to ensure that
the people can only create SILFunctionArguments in entry blocks and
SILPHIArguments in non-entry blocks. This will ensure that the code in tree
maintains the API distinction even if we are not using the full distinction in
between the two.
Once the verifier is finished being upstreamed, I am going to audit the
createPHIArgument cases for the proper ownership. This is b/c I will be able to
use the verifier to properly debug the code. At that point, I will also start
serializing/printing/parsing the ownershipkind of SILPHIArguments, but lets take
things one step at a time and move incrementally.
In the process, I also discovered a CSE bug. I am not sure how it ever worked.
Basically we replace an argument with a new argument type but return the uses of
the old argument to refer to the old argument instead of a new argument.

For a long time, we have:
1. Created methods on SILArgument that only work on either function arguments or
block arguments.
2. Created code paths in the compiler that only allow for "function"
SILArguments or "block" SILArguments.
This commit refactors SILArgument into two subclasses, SILPHIArgument and
SILFunctionArgument, separates the function and block APIs onto the subclasses
(leaving the common APIs on SILArgument). It also goes through and changes all
places in the compiler that conditionalize on one of the forms of SILArgument to
just use the relevant subclass. This is made easier by the relevant APIs not
being on SILArgument anymore. If you take a quick look through you will see that
the API now expresses a lot more of its intention.
The reason why I am performing this refactoring now is that SILFunctionArguments
have a ValueOwnershipKind defined by the given function's signature. On the
other hand, SILBlockArguments have a stored ValueOwnershipKind. Rather than
store ValueOwnershipKind in both instances and in the function case have a dead
variable, I decided to just bite the bullet and fix this.

This was already done for getSuccessorBlocks() to distinguish getting successor
blocks from getting the full list of SILSuccessors via getSuccessors(). This
commit just makes all of the successor/predecessor code follow that naming
convention.
Some examples:
getSingleSuccessor() => getSingleSuccessorBlock().
isSuccessor() => isSuccessorBlock().
getPreds() => getPredecessorBlocks().
Really, IMO, we should consider renaming SILSuccessor to a more verbose name so
that it is clear that it is more of an internal detail of SILBasicBlock's
implementation rather than something that one should consider as apart of one's
mental model of the IR when one really wants to be thinking about predecessor
and successor blocks. But that is not what this commit is trying to change, it
is just trying to eliminate a bit of technical debt by making the naming
conventions here consistent.
Before this commit all code relating to handling arguments in SILBasicBlock had
somewhere in the name BB. This is redundant given that the class's name is
already SILBasicBlock. This commit drops those names.
Some examples:
getBBArg() => getArgument()
BBArgList => ArgumentList
bbarg_begin() => args_begin()
Today, loads and stores are treated as having @unowned(unsafe) ownership
semantics. This leaves the user to specify ownership changes on the loaded or
stored value independently of the load/store by inserting ARC operations. With
the change to Semantic SIL, this will no longer be true. Instead loads, stores
have ownership semantics that one must reason about such as copy, take, and
trivial.
This change moves us closer to that world by eliminating the default
OwnershipQualification argument from create{Load,Store}. This means that the
compiler developer cannot ignore reasoning about the ownership semantics of the
memory operation that they are creating.
Operationally, this is a NFC change since I have just gone through the compiler
and updated all places where we create loads, stores to pass in the former
default argument ({Load,Store}OwnershipQualifier::Unqualified), to
SILBuilder::create{Load,Store}(...). For now, one can just do that in situations
where one needs to create loads/stores, but over time, I am going to tighten the
semantics up via the verifier.

id-as-Any lets you pass Optional to an ObjC API that takes `nonnull id`, and also lets you bridge containers of `Optional` to `NSArray` etc. When this occurs, we can unwrap the value and bridge it so that inhabited optionals still pass into ObjC in the expected way, but we need something to represent `none` other than the `nil` pointer. Cocoa provides `NSNull` as the canonical "null for containers" object, which is the least bad of many possible answers. If we happen to have the rare nested optional `T??`, there is no precedented analog for these in Cocoa, so just generate a unique sentinel object to preserve the `nil`-ness depth so we at least don't lose information round-tripping across the ObjC-Swift bridge.
Making Optional conform to _ObjectiveCBridgeable is more or less enough to make this all work, though there are a few additional edge case things that need to be fixed up. We don't want to accept `AnyObject??` as an @objc-compatible type, so special-case Optional in `getForeignRepresentable`.
Implements SR-0140 (rdar://problem/27905315).
The new instructions are: ref_tail_addr, tail_addr and a new attribute [ tail_elems ] for alloc_ref.
For details see docs/SIL.rst
As these new instructions are not generated so far, this is a NFC.

Simplify e.g., ASTContext::getBridgedToObjC(), which no longer needs
the optional return.
Eliminate the now-unused constraint kind for checking bridging to
Objective-C.
This establishes a real def-use relation from the self-parameter to any instruction which uses the dynamic-self type.
This is an addition to what was already done for opened archetypes.
The biggest part of this commit is to rename "OpenedArchetypeOperands" to "TypeDependentOperands" as this name is now more appropriate.
Other than that the change includes:
*) type-dependent operands are now printed after a SIL instruction in a comment as "type-defs:" (for debugging)
*) FuncationSignatureOpts doesn't need to explicitly check if a function doesn't bind dynamic self to remove a dead self metadata argument
*) the check if a function binds dynamic self (used in the inliner) is much simpler now
*) also collect type-dependent operands for ApplyInstBase::SubstCalleeType and not only in the substitution list
*) with this SILInstruction::mayHaveOpenedArchetypeOperands (used in CSE) is not needed anymore and removed
*) add type dependent operands to dynamic_method instruction
Regarding the generated code it should be a NFC.
*) cast optimizer: when a bridging cast is replaced with a function call and the owning convention of the instruction and the call parameter do not match, compensating retain/release instructions must be inserted.
*) cast optimizer: when a consuming dead cast instruction is removed a compensating release instruction must be inserted
*) mem2reg: An alloc_stack location which contains a destroy_addr must not be considered as a write-only location. The destroy_addr must be preserved.

One minor revision: this lifts the proposed restriction against
overriding a non-open method with an open one. On reflection,
that was inconsistent with the existing rule permitting non-public
methods to be overridden with public ones. The restriction on
subclassing a non-open class with an open class remains, and is
in fact consistent with the existing access rule.
Previously it assumed that if we succeed in looking up the method in the current
module we must be able to request a definition (vs a declaration).
This is not true. It could be that we had declared the type in a different
module. Always ask for a declaration.

'fileprivate' is considered a broader level of access than 'private',
but for now both of them are still available to the entire file. This
is intended as a migration aid.
One interesting fallout of the "access scope" model described in
758cf64 is that something declared 'private' at file scope is actually
treated as 'fileprivate' for diagnostic purposes. This is something
we can fix later, once the full model is in place. (It's not really
/wrong/ in that they have identical behavior, but diagnostics still
shouldn't refer to a type explicitly declared 'private' as
'fileprivate'.)
As a note, ValueDecl::getEffectiveAccess will always return 'FilePrivate'
rather than 'Private'; for purposes of optimization and code generation,
we should never try to distinguish these two cases.
This should have essentially no effect on code that's /not/ using
'fileprivate' other than altered diagnostics.
Progress on SE-0025 ('fileprivate' and 'private')
Introduce bridging of NSError to ErrorProtocol, so an Objective-C API
expressed via an "NSError *" will be imported using ErrorProtocol in
the Swift. For example, the Objective-C method:
- (void)handleError:(NSError *)error userInteractionPermitted:(BOOL)userInteractionPermitted;
will now be imported as:
func handleError(_ error: ErrorProtocol, userInteractionPermitted: Bool)
This is bullet (3) under the proposed solution of SE-0112. Note that
we made one semantic change here: instead of removing the conformance
of NSError to ErrorProtocol, which caused numerous problems both
theoretical and actual because the model expects that an NSError
conforms to ErrorProtocol without requiring wrapping, we instead limit
the ErrorProtocol -> NSError conversion that would be implied by
bridging. This is defensible in the short term because it also
eliminates the implicit conversion, and aligns with SE-0072, which
eliminates implicit bridging conversions altogether.
Formerly SILGen would never emit this sequence. In fact in most places
we lower away dynamic Self, replacing it with the concrete Self type
instead.
However, with an upcoming change, I'm using 'metatype $Self' as a handy
way to grab IRGenSILFunction::LocalSelfMetadata, since that's what it
already does.
Note that the tests for this are in the next patch.
