The linker pulls in new functions (which can change the call graph) but it
does not change the control flow of the processed function.
Swift SVN r26614
The old invalidation lattice was incorrect because changes to control flow could cause changes to the
call graph, so we've decided to change the way passes invalidate analysis. In the new scheme, the lattice
is replaced with a list of traits that passes preserve or invalidate. The current traits are Calls and Branches.
Now, passes report which traits they preserve, which is the opposite of the previous implementation where
passes needed to report what they invalidate.
Node: I tried to limit the changes in this commit to mechanical changes to ease the review. I will cleanup some
of the code in a following commit.
Swift SVN r26449
If vtable or witness methods are never called, e.g. because they are completely devirtualized,
then they are removed from the tables and eliminated.
Another improvement of the new algorithm is that it is able to eliminate dead function cycles
(e.g. A() calls B() and vice versa).
Swift SVN r22969
This avoids that the deserializer(s) keep references to deserialized functions during the whole optimization passes
(especially dead function elimination).
I have seen no negative effect on compiletime. It seems to be a seldom event that a function is
deserialized twice because of not keeping the cache alive between linking passes.
I also simplified the final dead function elimination by just using the regular dead function elimination pass.
Swift SVN r22837
This reverts commit r14623. I will recommit this when I reenable deserialization
of witness tables/vtables. This will enable the deserialization of SILFunctions
by default from the stdlib by avoiding the lack of external witness
tables/vtables.
Swift SVN r14786
This is mostly useful for the standard library, whose name is going to
change to "Swift" soon. (See <rdar://problem/15972383>.) But it's good DRY.
Swift SVN r13758
It's OK to clone shared definitions, and we need to in order to carry non-inlined specializations with the transparent functions that reference them.
Swift SVN r13288
Also, restructure so that the option isn't declared in a random library file.
(And do the same with "-sil-link-all".)
Part of the migration to the new driver.
Swift SVN r13184
Body of closure needs to be serialized if its caller is serialized.
To fix this, we serialize private functions that are referenced by a serialized
function.

Swift SVN r13162
We add two records in sil_block to specify a witness table record and a method
entry record. Out of the four entry types, only "Method" is handled in this
commit.
Two records are also added to sil_index_block to search for a specific witness
table given a unique identifier. The interface lookupWitnessTable is not
implemented yet.
Right now, we serialize a witness table only when sil-serialize-all is on and
deserialize all witness tables in the module when sil-link-all is on.

In general, this forces SILGen and IRGen code that's grabbing
a declaration to state whether it's doing so to define it.
Change SIL serialization to serialize the linkage of functions
and global variables, which means also serializing declarations.
Change the deserializer to use this stored linkage, even when
only deserializing a declaration, and to call a callback to
inform the client that it has deserialized a new entity.
Take advantage of that callback in the linking pass to alter
the deserialized linkage as appropriate for the fact that we
imported the declaration. This computation should really take
advantage of the relationship between modules, but currently
it does not.
Swift SVN r12090
- First, it now knows how to look through
PartialApplyInsts in addition to simple
ApplyInsts when finding functions to link.
- Second, it now consults the external source
in all cases where CalleeFunction is non-NULL
rather than just if the CalleeFunction is
non-NULL and empty. This allows the external
source to override functions with pre-existing
bodies.
Swift SVN r9836
We add two records in sil_block to specify a Vtable and its entry list. Two
records are also added in sil_index_block for mapping from name to ID and
from ID to bit offset.
Two functions are added to SerializedSILLoader: to look up a specific VTable
given the class name or to deserialize all VTables in all SILModules. The latter
is mostly used for testing.
We serialize a VTable if the class is fragile and deserialize it via
SerializedSILLoader::lookupVTable.
Swift SVN r9746
to interpose on the SIL linking process. Under the
following conditions:
- a function is called by the current SILModule;
- that function is transparent and empty in the
generated SIL;
- the SIL linker doesn't find a serialized
version of it; and
- the external client (right now, LLDB) has a
SILExternalSource installed in the SILModule;
the SIL linker will query the SILExternalSource
via lookupSILFunction.
This interface will be used by LLDB to provide
SIL accessors for a program's variables when they
are referred to by Swift expressions.
Swift SVN r9452
Make ApplyInst and PartialApplyInst directly take substitutions for generic functions instead of trying to stage out substitutions separately. The legacy reasons for doing this are gone.
Swift SVN r8747
We generate a module from .sil, then deserialize the module using
sil-link-all.
Fix serialization and deserialization of CopyAddrInst.
Fix serialization of ProjectExistentialRefInst.
Add registration of ReferenceStorageTypeLayout, which we forgot to register.
We now have testing coverage of 70+ SILInstructions.
Swift SVN r8635
Add a SILLinkage mode "Deserialized" to make sure IRGen will emit
hidden symbols for deserialized SILFunction.
Inside SIL linker, set Linkage to external if we only have a declaration for
a callee function.
Both sil block and decl block in a module can emit an array of substitutions.
To share the serialization between SILSerializer and Serializer, we modify
the interface to pass in the abbreviation codes to write functions and to
pass in a cursor to read functions.
We now correctly handle the serialization of Substitutions in SpecializeInst.
For a deserialized SILFunction, we now temporarily set its SILLocation and
DebugScope to an empty FileLocation. Once mandatory inliner sets the SILLocation
to the location of ApplyInst, a null SILLocation and a null DebugScope
may work for a deserialized SILFunction.
Update testing cases to reflect that we are now inlining transparent functions
from modules, or to disable SILDeserializer for now (I am not sure how to update
those testing cases).
Swift SVN r8582
Clear up data for basic blocks and local values at beginning of
handling a SILFunction.
Fix a bug in handling of StructElementAddr and add testing cases for
enum, initialize_var and struct_element_addr.
Fix a problem in handling types of a SILArgument.
Turn SIL serialization on by default, add a command line "enable-sil-linking"
to turn on SIL deserialization.
Also for readability, change from Name.ResultVal != ~0U to !Name.isMRV()
in SILParser.
Swift SVN r8508
Add command line argument -sil-link-all and -sil-serialize-all for testing
purpose.
Do not create new SILFunction for de-serialized SIL, instead update the
existing declaration with the de-serialized SILFunction.
Add testing case to cover partial_apply.
Swift SVN r8410
Use a worklist in SIL linking to traverse the newly serialized SILFunction.
Add serialization/deserialization of the following SILInstructions:
AllocArray, Apply, FunctionRef, IntegerLiteral, Metatype, StructExtract,
Struct and Tuple.
Make getDecl and getIdentifier in ModuleFile public to be used by
SILDeserializer, also make addDeclRef and addIdentifierRef in Serializer
public to be used by SILSerializer.
Update testing case to cover the above SILInstructions.
TODO: lookupSILFunction should replace the existing empty SILFunction instead
of creating a new SILFunction.
Swift SVN r8339
SerializedSILLoader to hold a list of SIL deserializers.
Also add an intial implementation of a linking pass that is run right after
SILGen to link the declaration of SILFunction to the actual definition in
the serialized module.
We add two blocks to the serialized module: a sil index block that
maps identifier to a function ID and also holds a list of function offsets,
and a sil block for the actual SILFunctions. We can probably use subblock
instead of two top-level blocks.
The serialization/de-serialization of the function hash table and the function
offsets are implemented. But we are missing handling of types (see FIXME in
the code).
ModuleFile::Serialized is made public to be used by SIL deserializer, as well
as ModuleFile::getType.
The SIL deserializer holds a pointer to the ModuleFile, it gets the sil cursor
and the sil index cursor from the ModuleFile. The other option is for SIL
deserializer to find the start of the two sil blocks within itself, thus having
less coupling with ModuleFile.
No testing case yet because we are missing handling of types.
