Previously we prohibited unbound generics in the underlying
type of a typealias, but due to an oversight the check was
not performed when resolving a nested type.
So this worked:
struct Outer { struct Inner<T> {} }
typealias OuterInner = Outer.Inner
let _: OuterInner<Int> = Outer.Inner<Int>()
However it was easy to cause a crash this way by stating an
unbound generic type where one was not expected. Also,
unqualified types in a typealias did not get this treatment,
so the following did not work:
typealias MyOptional = Optional
Formalize the old behavior by allowing unbound generic types
in the underlying type of a typealias, while otherwise
prohibiting unbound references to nested types.
Previously some decls (TypeAliasDecl and ExtensionDecl) had bits
explicitly marking whether they've been validated, while other decls
just deduced this from hasInterfaceType. The doing the latter doesn't
work when the interface type can be computed before doing full
validation (such as protocols and associatedtypes, which have trivial
interface types), and so an explicit bit is adopted for all decls.
The list of directly inherited protocols of a ProtocolDecl is already
encoded in the requirement signature, as conformance constraints where
the subject is Self. Gather the list from there rather than separately
computing/storing the list of "inherited protocols".
Previously, validateDecl() would check if the declaration had an
interface type and use that as an indication not to proceed.
However for functions we can only set an interface type after
checking the generic signature, so a recursive call to validateDecl()
on a function would "steal" the outer call and complete validation.
For generic types, this meant we could have a declaration with a
valid interface type but no generic signature.
Both cases were problematic, so narrow workarounds were put in
place with additional new flags. This made the code harder to
reason about.
This patch consolidates the flags and establishes new invariants:
- If validateDecl() returns and the declaration has no interface
type and the isBeingValidated() flag is not set, it means one
of the parent contexts is being validated by an outer recursive
call.
- If validateDecl() returns and the declaration has the
isBeingValidated() flag set, it may or may not have an interface
type. In this case, the declaration itself is being validated
by an outer recursive call.
- If validateDecl() returns and the declaration has an interface
type and the isBeingValidated() flag is not set, it means the
declaration and all of its parent contexts are fully validated
and ready for use.
In general, we still want name lookup to find things that have an
interface type but are not in a valid generic context, so for this
reason nominal types and associated types get an interface type as
early as possible.
Most other code only wants to see fully formed decls, so a new
hasValidSignature() method returns true iff the interface type is
set and the isBeingValidated() flag is not set.
For example, while resolving a type, we can resolve an unqualified
reference to a nominal type without a valid signature. However, when
applying generic parameters, the hasValidSignature() flag is used
to ensure we error out instead of crashing if the generic signature
has not yet been formed.
- TypeAliasDecl::getAliasType() is gone. Now, getDeclaredInterfaceType()
always returns the NameAliasType.
- NameAliasTypes now always desugar to the underlying type as an
interface type.
- The NameAliasType of a generic type alias no longer desugars to an
UnboundGenericType; call TypeAliasDecl::getUnboundGenericType() if you
want that.
- The "lazy mapTypeOutOfContext()" hack for deserialized TypeAliasDecls
is gone.
- The process of constructing a synthesized TypeAliasDecl is much simpler
now; instead of calling computeType(), setInterfaceType() and then
setting the recursive properties in the right order, just call
setUnderlyingType(), passing it either an interface type or a
contextual type.
In particular, many places weren't setting the recursive properties,
such as the ClangImporter and deserialization. This meant that queries
such as hasArchetype() or hasTypeParameter() would return incorrect
results on NameAliasTypes, which caused various subtle problems.
- Finally, add some more tests for generic typealiases, most of which
fail because they're still pretty broken.
- In functions called from resolveType(), consistently
use a Type() return value to indicate 'unsatisfied
dependency', and ErrorType to indicate failure.
- Plumb the unsatisfiedDependency callback through the
resolution of the arguments of BoundGenericTypes, and
also pass down the options.
- Before doing a conformance check on the argument of a
BoundGenericType, kick off a TypeCheckSuperclass request
if the type in question is a class. This ensures we don't
recurse through NominalTypeDecl::prepareConformanceTable(),
which wants to see a class with a valid superclass.
- The ResolveTypeOfDecl request was assuming that
the request was satisfied after calling validateDecl().
This is not the case when the ITC is invoked from a
recursive call to validateDecl(), hack this up by returning
*true* from isResolveTypeDeclSatisfied(); otherwise we
assert in satisfy(), and we can't make forward progress
in this case anyway.
- Fix a bug in cycle breaking; it seems if we don't invoke
the cycle break callback on all pending requests, we end
up looping forever in an outer call to satisfy().
- Remove unused TR_GlobalTypeAlias option.
There's a bit of a hack to deal with generic typealiases, but
overall this makes things more logical.
This is the last big refactoring before we can allow constrained
extensions to make generic parameters concrete. All that remains
is a small set of changes to SIL type lowering, and retooling
some diagnostics in Sema.
'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')
The IterativeTypeChecker now use loops instead of recursion to help keep the stack size low
We diagnose circular dependencies for protocols in a more efficient manner and also prevent the possibility of infinite loops
trying to set the superclass on classes in such situations by setting the superclass of an invalid decl to the error type.
This fixes a bunch of compiler crashes, and also changes some errors in other tests where the main error is the invalid declaration and now the
downstream errors can be a bit different because the decl has been invalidated.
Consider this code:
struct A<T> {
struct B {}
struct C<U> {}
}
Previously:
- getDeclaredType() of 'A.B' would give 'A<T>.B'
- getDeclaredTypeInContext() of 'A.B' would give 'A<T>.B'
- getDeclaredType() of 'A.C' would give 'A<T>.C'
- getDeclaredTypeInContext() of 'A.C' would give 'A<T>.C<U>'
This was causing problems for nested generics. Now, with this change,
- getDeclaredType() of 'A.B' gives 'A.B' (*)
- getDeclaredTypeInContext() of 'A.B' gives 'A<T>.B'
- getDeclaredType() of 'A.C' gives 'A.C' (*)
- getDeclaredTypeInContext() of 'A.C' gives 'A<T>.C<U>'
(Differences marked with (*)).
Also, this change makes these accessors fully lazy. Previously,
only getDeclaredTypeInContext() and getDeclaredIterfaceType()
were lazy, whereas getDeclaredType() was built from validateDecl().
Fix a few spots where the return value wasn't being checked
properly.
These functions return ErrorType if a circularity was detected via
the generic parameter list, or if the extension did not resolve.
They return Type() if the extension cannot be resolved *yet*.
This is pretty subtle, and I'll need to do another pass over
callers of these functions at some point. Many of them should be
moved over to use getSelfInContext(), getSelfOfContext() and
getSelfInterfaceType() instead.
Finally, this patch consolidates logic for diagnosting invalid
nesting of types.
The parser had some code for protocols in bad places and bad things
inside protocols, and Sema had several different bail-outs for
bad things in protocols, nested generic types, and stuff nested
inside protocol extensions.
Combine all of these into a single set of checks in Sema. Note
that we no longer give up early if we find invalid nesting.
Leaving decls unvalidated and un-type-checked only leads to
further problems. Now that all the preliminary crap has been
fixed, we can go ahead and start validating these funny nested
decls, actually fixing some crashers in the process.
Another pre-emptive compiler_crasher regression fix.
I have an idea for consolidating some of these hacky circularity
checks in a nice way, but not now.
Only use the existing type checker (via "TC") in the iterative type
checker when we're actually making use of its functionality. The
intent is to drive this usage down to zero as we port code over to the
iterative type checker, so unprincipled uses get in the way.

Put in some rudimentary logic for finding circular references within
the iterative type checker and diagnosing those cycles. The
"rudimentary" part is because we're performing linear searches within
a stack rather than keeping a proper dependency graph, which is
inefficient and could display longer cycles than are actually
present. Additionally, the diagnostic is not specialized to the actual
query, so we get a generic "circular reference" diagnostic. OTOH, we
show all of the declarations involved in the cycle, which at least
lets the user figure out where the cycle occurred.
Enable the iterative type checker for resolving the type of a global
typealiases.

The separate "enumerate dependencies" and "satisfy" phases didn't make
sense, because one often needs to process part of a request to enumerate
additional dependencies. Collapse these two phases into a single
"process" operation that makes what progress it can, and enumerates
additional dependencies that need to be satisfied before it can
progress further.
Swift SVN r32563
Implement some awful, *recursive* code in the *iterative* type checker
that satisfies all of the dependencies of a type check request
(*recursively*) before satisfying the type check request itself. This
is placeholder code that lets us flesh out the dependency mechanism
separately from implementing the proper data structures.
To test this, implement a type check request for type-checking one
type within an inheritance clause. Make the superclass type check
request depend on the first type in the inheritance clause of the
class, with a recovery path that looks at subsequent types in the
inheritance clause so long as we're still seeing protocol types. This
checking is more minimal than what we were doing previously (where we
would check all of the inherited types to find the superclass) and a
simple illustration of dependencies that can evolve.
Swift SVN r32559
This is all effectively NFC, but lays out the shape of the iterative
type checker: requests are packaged up in TypeCheckRequest, we can
check whether the request has been satisfied already (isSatisfied),
enumerate its dependencies (enumerateDependenciesOf) in terms of other
TypeCheckRequests, and satisfy a request (satisfy).
Lazily-computed semantic information is captured directly in the
AST, but has been set aside in its own structure to allow us to
experiment with moving it into a lookaside table.
The only request that exists now is to type-check the superclass of
the given class. It currently performs unhealthy recursion into the
existing type checker. As we detangle dependencies, this recursion
between the IterativeTypeChecker and the TypeChecker can go away.
