- Introduced a new helper class FunctionSignaturePartialSpecializer which provides most of the functionality required for producing a specialized generic signature based on the provided substitutions or requirements. The class consists of many small functions, which should make it easier to understand the code.
- Added a full support for partial specialization of generic parameters with generic substitutions (use flag `-Xllvm -sil-partial-specialization-with-generic-substitutions` to enable it)
- Removed the simpler version of the partial specializer which could partially specialize only generic parameters with non-generic substitutions. It is not needed anymore, because we can handle any substations now when performing the partial specialization.
- The functionality used by the EagerSpecializer to implement the partial specializations required by @_specialize is expressed in terms of FunctionSignaturePartialSpecializer as well. The code implementing it is much smaller now.
Partial specialization of generic parameters with generic substitutions is fully functional, but it is disabled by default, because it needs some tweaks when it comes to compile times and size of produced code. These issues will be addressed in the subsequent commits.
This commit changes how inline information is stored in SILDebugScope
from a tree to a linear chain of inlined call sites (similar to what
LLVM is using). This makes creating inlined SILDebugScopes slightly
more expensive, but makes lowering SILDebugScopes into LLVM metadata
much faster because entire inlined-at chains can now be cached. This
means that SIL is no longer preserve the inlining history (i.e., ((a
was inlined into b) was inlined into c) is represented the same as (a
was inlined into (b was inlined into c)), but this information was not
used by anyone.
On my late 2012 i7 iMac, this saves about 4 seconds when compiling the
RelWithDebInfo x86_64 swift standard library — or 40% of IRGen time.

In particular, support the following optimizations:
- owned-to-guaranteed
- dead argument elimination
Argument explosion is disabled for generics at the moment as it usually leads to a slower code.
Also, add a third [serializable] state for functions whose bodies we
*can* serialize, but only do so if they're referenced from another
serialized function.
This will be used for bodies synthesized for imported definitions,
such as init(rawValue:), etc, and various thunks, but for now this
change is NFC.
This is useful for optimizations (like AllocBoxToStack) which create (de-)alloc_stack instructions.
They can just insert the new instructions anywhere without worrying about nesting and correct the nesting afterwards.
Use -sil-partial-specialization-with-generic-substitutions to enable the partial specialization even in cases of substitutions containing generic replacement types.
Previously it was part of swiftBasic.
The demangler library does not depend on llvm (except some header-only utilities like StringRef). Putting it into its own library makes sure that no llvm stuff will be linked into clients which use the demangler library.
This change also contains other refactoring, like moving demangler code into different files. This makes it easier to remove the old demangler from the runtime library when we switch to the new symbol mangling.
Also in this commit: remove some unused API functions from the demangler Context.

It looks like the devirtualizer used to have problems computing
method types in the presence of generic substitutions, covariant
returns and other things, so it would bail if a perticular set
of pre-conditions was not met on the types of original method call
and the devirtualized method call.
I don't think any of this is necessary anymore. If this patch
introduces any regressions, we need to fix the root cause instead
of re-introducing this logic.
It is important to de-serialize the devirtualized function (and its callees), especially because we must make sure that all transparent functions are de-serialized.
SILCombine did not do that. But as we have the same optimization in the Devirtualizer, it's not needed to duplicate the code in SILCombine.
The only reason we had this peephole in SILCombine is that the Devirtualizer pass could not handle partial applies.
So with this change the Devirtualizer can now also handle partial applies.
Fixes rdar://problem/30544344 (again, after my first attempt failed)
This predicate can be used to check if a given call can be devirtualized. One of the clients of this new API will be the inliner, which may want to check if a given method call becomes devirtualizable after inlining.
This reverts commit 1b3d29a163, reversing
changes made to b32424953e.
We're seeing a handful of issues from turning on inlining of generics,
so I'm reverting to unblock the bots.
It is now possible to check for any apply if it can be devirtualized without actually performing the deirtualization. This could be used e.g. by inlining heuristics.
SubstitutionList is going to be a more compact representation of
a SubstitutionMap, suitable for inline allocation inside another
object.
For now, it's just a typedef for ArrayRef<Substitution>.
Separate formal lowered types from SIL types.
The SIL type of an argument will depend on the SIL module's conventions.
The module conventions are determined by the SIL stage and LangOpts.
Almost NFC, but specialized manglings are broken incidentally as a result of
fixes to the way passes handle book-keeping of aruments. The mangler is fixed in
the subsequent commit.
Otherwise, NFC is intended, but quite possible do to rewriting the logic in many
places.
Names matter. When using an unsigned int to index arguments, always make it
clear what the index refers to. It is a particularly confusing in this code because:
- mangling should not care about argument indices at all, only the function type should matter.
- argument indices for a given function type may be different depending on the SIL stage.
- these indices are actually a contract between the client code and the mangler.
- the specialized function's argument indices are different than the original indices!
This issue was hiding bugs in the mangler. The bug fixes will be in a separate PR.
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.
