We used to give witness thunks public linkage if the
conforming type and the protocol are public.
This is completely unnecessary. If the conformance is
fragile, the thunk should be [shared] [serialized],
allowing the thunk to be serialized into callers after
devirtualization.
Otherwise for private protocols or resilient modules,
witness thunks can just always be private.
This should reduce the size of compiled binaries.
There are two other mildly interesting consequences:
1) In the bridged cast tests, we now inline the witness
thunks from the bridgeable conformances, which removes
one level of indirection.
2) This uncovered a flaw in our accessibility checking
model. Usually, we reject a witness that is less
visible than the protocol; however, we fail to
reject it in the case that it comes from an
extension.
This is because members of an extension can be
declared 'public' even if the extended type is not
public, and it appears that in this case the 'public'
keyword has no effect.
I would prefer it if a) 'public' generated a warning
here, and b) the conformance also generated a warning.
In Swift 4 mode, we could then make this kind of
sillyness into an error. But for now, live with the
broken behavior, and add a test to exercise it to ensure
we don't crash.
There are other places where this "allow public but
ignore it, kinda, except respect it in some places"
behavior causes problems. I don't know if it was intentional
or just emergent behavior from general messiness in Sema.
3) In the TBD code, there is one less 'failure' because now
that witness thunks are no longer public, TBDGen does not
need to reason about them (except for the case #2 above,
which will probably require a similar workaround in TBDGen
as what I put into SILGen).
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.
Instead of appending a character for each substitution, we now prefix the substitution with the repeat count, e.g.
AbbbbB -> A5B
The same is done for known-type substitutions, e.g.
SiSiSi -> S3i
This significantly shrinks mangled names which contain large lists of the same type, like
func foo(_ x: (Int, Int, Int, Int, Int, Int, Int, Int, Int, Int, Int, Int))

Textual SIL was sometimes ambiguous when SILDeclRefs were used, because the textual representation of SILDeclRefs was the same for functions that have the same name, but different signatures.

Reimplement the witness matching logic used for generic requirements
so that it properly models the expectations required of the witness,
then captures the results in the AST. The new approach has a number of
advantages over the existing hacks:
* The constraint solver no longer requires hacks to try to tangle
together the innermost archetypes from the requirement with the
outer archetypes of the context of the protocol
conformance. Instead, we create a synthetic set of archetypes that
describes the requirement as it should be matched against
witnesses. This eliminates the infamous 'SelfTypeVar' hack.
* The type checker no longer records substitutions involving a weird
mix of archetypes from different contexts (see above), so it's
actually plausible to reason about the substitutions of a witness. A
new `Witness` class contains the declaration, substitutions, and all
other information required to interpret the witness.
* SILGen now uses the substitution information for witnesses when
building witness thunks, rather than computing all of it from
scratch. ``substSelfTypeIntoProtocolRequirementType()` is now gone
(absorbed into the type checker, and improved from there), and the
witness-thunk emission code is simpler. A few other bits of SILGen
got simpler because the substitutions can now be trusted.
* Witness matching and thunk generation involving generic requirements
and nested generics now works, based on some work @slavapestov was
already doing in this area.
* The AST verifier can now verify the archetypes that occur in witness substitutions.
* Although it's not in this commit, the `Witness` structure is
suitable for complete (de-)serialization, unlike the weird mix of
archetypes previously present.
Fixes rdar://problem/24079818 and cleans up an area that's been messy
and poorly understood for a very, very long time.
Also, mark witness thunks for [fragile] witnesses as [fragile].
This allows us to serialize the witness table, as well as any thunks
for witnesses declared @_transparent and @inline(__always).
Similarly to how we've always handled parameter types, we
now recursively expand tuples in result types and separately
determine a result convention for each result.
The most important code-generation change here is that
indirect results are now returned separately from each
other and from any direct results. It is generally far
better, when receiving an indirect result, to receive it
as an independent result; the caller is much more likely
to be able to directly receive the result in the address
they want to initialize, rather than having to receive it
in temporary memory and then copy parts of it into the
target.
The most important conceptual change here that clients and
producers of SIL must be aware of is the new distinction
between a SILFunctionType's *parameters* and its *argument
list*. The former is just the formal parameters, derived
purely from the parameter types of the original function;
indirect results are no longer in this list. The latter
includes the indirect result arguments; as always, all
the indirect results strictly precede the parameters.
Apply instructions and entry block arguments follow the
argument list, not the parameter list.
A relatively minor change is that there can now be multiple
direct results, each with its own result convention.
This is a minor change because I've chosen to leave
return instructions as taking a single operand and
apply instructions as producing a single result; when
the type describes multiple results, they are implicitly
bound up in a tuple. It might make sense to split these
up and allow e.g. return instructions to take a list
of operands; however, it's not clear what to do on the
caller side, and this would be a major change that can
be separated out from this already over-large patch.
Unsurprisingly, the most invasive changes here are in
SILGen; this requires substantial reworking of both call
emission and reabstraction. It also proved important
to switch several SILGen operations over to work with
RValue instead of ManagedValue, since otherwise they
would be forced to spuriously "implode" buffers.
While making some changes that resulted in materializeForSet getting
synthesized more often, I noticed that some tests started failing
because they could not find the Optional type, which appears in the
type of materializeForSet. Fix these tests by defining an Optional
and passing in '-module-name Swift' so that we can find it.
This feels a little bit gross, but Dmitri says it is preferrable to
importing Swift from a test.
This eliminates some minor overheads, but mostly it eliminates
a lot of conceptual complexity due to the overhead basically
appearing outside of its context.
And include some supplementary mangling changes:
- Give the first generic param (depth=0, index=0) a single character mangling. Even after removing the self type from method declaration types, 'Self' still shows up very frequently in protocol requirement signatures.
- Fix the mangling of generic parameter counts to elide the count when there's only one parameter at the starting depth of the mangling.
Together these carve another 154KB out of a debug standard library. There's some awkwardness in demangled strings that I'll clean up in subsequent commits; since decl types now only mangle the number of generic params at their own depth, it's context-dependent what depths those represent, which we get wrong now. Currying markers are also wrong, but since free function currying is going away, we can mangle the partial application thunks in different ways.
Swift SVN r32896
Canonical dependent member types are always based from a generic parameter, so we can use a more optimal mangling that assumes this. We can also introduce substitutions for AssociatedTypeDecls, and when a generic parameter in a signature is constrained by a single protocol, we can leave that protocol qualification out of the unsubstituted associated type mangling. These optimizations together shrink the standard library by 117KB, and bring the length of the longest Swift symbol in the stdlib down from 578 to 334 characters, shorter than the longest C++ symbol in the stdlib.
Swift SVN r32786
Now that we properly track inherited conformances and don't re-emit the inherited conformance in every translation unit that asks for it, this is no longer necessary or correct. The necessary conformances for a file should be emitted while visiting the types in that file, and trying to recursively emit their dependencies introduces duplicate symbols. Fixes rdar://problem/21107266.
Swift SVN r29093
The only caveat is that:
1. We do not properly recognize when we have a let binding and we
perform a guaranteed dynamic call. In such a case, we add an extra
retain, release pair around the call. In order to get that case I will
need to refactor some code in Callee. I want to make this change, but
not at the expense of getting the rest of this work in.
2. Some of the protocol witness thunks generated have unnecessary
retains or releases in a similar manner.
But this is a good first step.
I am going to send a large follow up email with all of the relevant results, so
I can let the bots chew on this a little bit.

SIL seems to be doing the right thing here already, which is great!
Part of rdar://problem/17732115. We'll be able to really see this working
with the next change: allowing references to testable things when using
"@testable import".
Swift SVN r26473
When we print the name of a protocol conformance, we normally use the generic parameters as written. However, since some requirements may be inferred (particularly by an extension of a generic type), it's better for the SIL printer to use the generic signature, which is fully expanded and will also be correct, e.g., when working with a deserialized conformance.
Swift SVN r26437
This lets us disambiguate the symbols for static and instance properties, and enables us to eventually leave the useless "self" type mangling out of method symbols. Fixes rdar://19012022 and dupes thereof, including crasher #1341.

This will have an effect on inlining into thunks.
Currently this flag is set for witness thunks and thunks from function signature optimization.
No change in code generation, yet.

Previously, we attempted to infer @objc-ness based on conformance, but
doing so is fraught with ordering dependencies, and just doesn't work
in the general case. Among other crimes, this allowed us to
retroactively mark a non-@objc method from an imported module as
@objc... even though nobody would ever then emit the @objc entry
points for it.

Most tests were using %swift or similar substitutions, which did not
include the target triple and SDK. The driver was defaulting to the
host OS. Thus, we could not run the tests when the standard library was
not built for OS X.

- Allow 'static' in protocol property and func requirements, but not 'class'.
- Allow 'static' methods in classes - they are 'class final'.
- Only allow 'class' methods in classes (or extensions of classes)
- Remove now unneeded diagnostics related to finding 'static' in previously banned places.
- Update relevant diagnostics to make the new rules clear.

as passing self by value, not by inout. This is the correct representation at
the AST level, and we now lower self references as the new @in_guaranteed
parameter convention. This allows SIL clients (like DI) to know that a nonmutating
protocol method does not mutate the pointee passed into the method.
This fixes:
<rdar://problem/19215313> let properties don't work with protocol method dispatch
<rdar://problem/15821762> Self argument of generic curried nonmutating instance methods is inout

modifiers and with the func implementations of the operators. This resolves the rest of:
<rdar://problem/17527000> change operator declarations from "operator prefix" to "prefix operator" & make operator a keyword
Swift SVN r19931
eliminating the @'s from them when used on func's. This is progress towards
<rdar://problem/17527000> change operator declarations from "operator prefix" to "prefix operator" & make operator a keyword
This also consolidates rejection of custom operator definitions into one
place and makes it consistent, and adds postfix "?" to the list of rejected
operators.
This also changes the demangler to demangle weak/inout/postfix and related things
without the @.

These types are often useless and confusing to users who expect to be able to use Sequence or Generator as types in their own right like in C# or Java. While we're here, relax the rules for self-conformance to admit methods returning 'Self'. Covariant return types should not actually prevent a protocol type from conforming to itself, and the stdlib makes particular use of protocols with 'init' requirements which implicitly return Self.
Swift SVN r18989
Walk the ProtocolConformances of type and extension decls to produce SILWitnessTables for them. Work out the type of the witness function by applying substitutions from the witness map and lowering it at the abstraction level of the requirement, then emit a symbol for the witness function (but don't emit the body of the witness function just yet).
