GlobalOpt works mostly on trivial values (there are special cases for ObjectInst and ValueToBridgeObjectInst).
optimizeGlobalAccess is explicitly turned off for non-trivial values. optimizeInitializer calls SILGlobalVariable::isValidStaticInitializerInst which limits it to mostly trivial values except for special cases for ObjectInst and ValueToBridgeObjectInst.
This changes adds GlobalOpt tests for ossa and enables GlobalOpt on ossa
For example: hoist out of loops where the loop count could be 0.
We did this on purpose. But, if not wrong, it's at least very confusing if the initializer has observable side effects.
Instead let CSE and LICM do the job and handle initializer side-effects correctly.

Detect stores to globals which get the address from an addressor call (and not from global_addr).
This kind of SIL is currently not generated, so most likely this bug does not show up. But as soon as we CSE addressor calls, it can be a real problem.
* Simplified the logic for creating static initializers and constant folding for global variables: instead of creating a getter function, directly inline the constant value into the use-sites.
* Wired up the constant folder in GlobalOpt, so that a chains for global variables can be propagated, e.g.
let a = 1
let b = a + 10
let c = b + 5
* Fixed a problem where we didn't create a static initializer if a global is not used in the same module. E.g. a public let variable.
* Simplified the code in general.
rdar://problem/31515927
If the size of a global variable is not known at compile time, we emit
a fixed size buffer together with initialization code when the global
variable is initialized.
Make sure the SIL optimizer does not convert this into a static
initialization, even if the size of the type is known inside the
module where the global is declared, because we don't have a way to
statically initialize something that looks like a fixed-size buffer
to client code.

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.
The XXOptUtils.h convention is already established and parallels
the SIL/XXUtils convention.
New:
- InstOptUtils.h
- CFGOptUtils.h
- BasicBlockOptUtils.h
- ValueLifetime.h
Removed:
- Local.h
- Two conflicting CFG.h files
This reorganization is helpful before I introduce more
utilities for block cloning similar to SinkAddressProjections.
Move the control flow utilies out of Local.h, which was an
unreadable, unprincipled mess. Rename it to InstOptUtils.h, and
confine it to small APIs for working with individual instructions.
These are the optimizer's additions to /SIL/InstUtils.h.
Rename CFG.h to CFGOptUtils.h and remove the one in /Analysis. Now
there is only SIL/CFG.h, resolving the naming conflict within the
swift project (this has always been a problem for source tools). Limit
this header to low-level APIs for working with branches and CFG edges.
Add BasicBlockOptUtils.h for block level transforms (it makes me sad
that I can't use BBOptUtils.h, but SIL already has
BasicBlockUtils.h). These are larger APIs for cloning or removing
whole blocks.
With the advent of dynamic_function_ref the actual callee of such a ref
my vary. Optimizations should not assume to know the content of a
function referenced by dynamic_function_ref. Introduce
getReferencedFunctionOrNull which will return null for such function
refs. And getInitialReferencedFunction to return the referenced
function.
Use as appropriate.
