In the fast dependency scanner, depending on whether a module intrface was found via the import search path or framework search path, encode into the dependency graph Swift module details, whether a given module is a framework.
Some implicitly imported modules aren't printed in the textual interface file as explicit import,
e.g. SwiftOnoneSupport. We should check implicit imports and add them to the dependency graph.
Since -emit-module-from-interface now emits forwarding modules, explicit module
loader should be able to accept forwarding modules and unbox their actual binary
contents.
-compile-module-from-interface action now takes arguments of -candidate-module-file.
If one of the candidate module files is up-to-date, the action emits a forwarding
module pointing to the candidate module instead of building a binary module.
Instead of replacing an interface file with its up-to-date compile module,
the dep-scanner should report potentially up-to-date module candidates either adjacent to
the interface file or in the prebuilt module cache. swift-driver should later pass down
these candidates to -compile-module-from-interface invocation and the front-end job
will check if one of the candidates is ready to use. The front-end job then either emits a forwarding
module to an up-to-date candidate or a binary module.
For the explicit module mode, swift-driver uses -compile-module-from-interface to
generate modules from interfaces found by the dependency scanner. However, we don't
need to build the binary module if up-to-date modules are available, either adjacent
to the interface file or in the prebuilt module cache directory. This patch teaches
dependencies scanner to report these ready-to-use binary modules.
Expand the FrontendOptions to allow the enabling
of the dependency tracker for non-system
dependencies, and switch the previous clients of
`createDependencyTracker` over to using this
option. This ensures that the dependency tracker
is now set only during `CompilerInstance::setup`.
We will eventually move the protocol entirely to using a JSON file for
explicit Swift modules. Before we finish migrating, we should be forgiving
about using the legacy -swift-module-file argument.
Instead of taking paths of Swift module files from front-end command line
arguments, we should take a JSON file specifying details of explicit modules.
The advantages is (1) .swiftdoc and .swiftsourceinfo can be associated
with a .swiftmodule file, and (2) module names are explicitly used as
keys in the JSON input so we don't need to eagerly deserialize a .swiftmodule
file to collect the module name.
Fix the search order for module interfaces to respect the documented
behavior:
1. Local cache
2. Next to the .swiftinterface
3. Prebuilt cache
Fixing the order of the last two allows the XcodeDefault compiler to
prioritize swiftmodule files with SPI information.
