ConvertType on InitListExprs as they are being converted. This is
needed for a forthcoming patch, and improves the IR generated anyway
(see additional type names in testcases).
This patch also converts a bunch of std::vector's in CGObjCMac to use
C arrays. There are a ton more that should be converted as well.

Language-design credit goes to a lot of people, but I particularly want
to single out Blaine Garst and Patrick Beard for their contributions.
Compiler implementation credit goes to Argyrios, Doug, Fariborz, and myself,
in no particular order.

- Moved the CGObjCRuntime functions out of CGObjCMac.cpp into CGObjCRuntime.cpp
- Added generic functions in CGObjCRuntime for emitting @try and @synchronize
blocks, usable by any runtime that uses DWARF exceptions.
- Made the GNU runtimes use these functions.
It should now be possible to replace the equivalent functions in
CGObjCNonFragileABIMac with simple calls to these two functions, providing the
runtime functions as arguments. I'll post a diff to the list for review before
making any changes to the Mac runtime stuff.

accessed via the indirect pointer, they don't need to be pointers to pointers).
Finished moving the message lookup code into separate subclasses for each
runtime. Also performed a few smallish related tidies.
We're now bitcasting the result of the message lookup functions, rather than
casting the lookup functions themselves, so the messages.m test needed updating
to reflect this.

that I hadn't used C++ for several years before writing most of this code).
Still lots more to do. This set of changes includes:
- Remove the distinction between typed and untyped selectors. More accurately
reflect what the runtime does, by using typed selectors everywhere, with an
empty type field if the types are unknown. Now we just store a small list of
types for each selector (in theory, this should always be exactly one, but
this constraint was not enforced back in 1986 when it should have been).
- Add some consistency to how runtime functions are created. These are all
generated via the LazyRuntimeFunction class (which might be useful outside
CGObjCGNU - feel free to move it into a header if it is). This function
stores the types of a function, looks it up the first time it's used, and
caches the result. This means that we're now not wasting time constructing
the llvm::FunctionType every time some of the functions are looked up, but
also not inserting references to runtime functions into the module if they're
not actually used.
- Started separating out the fragile and non-fragile ABI behaviours into two
subclasses of CGObjCGNU: CGObjCGCC for the legacy GCC runtime ABI and
CGObjCGNUstep for the new GNUstep ABI. Not all of the differences in
behaviour are factored out yet, but they will be in future commits.
- Removed all of the CodeGen:: things: we've been using namespace CodeGen in
this file for ages, so having explicit namespace specifiers is just a bit
confusing.
- Added a few more comments.
- Used llvm::StringRef instead of std::string in a few places.
- Finally got around to storing the module path in the module structure. The
ABI says that the compiler should do this, although it's not used in the
runtime or exposed outside the runtime, so it's pretty useless.
Still to do:
- We currently have two code paths for generating try blocks, one for ObjC and
one for ObjC++. Not only are these substantially similar, they are also very
similar to the CGObjCMac version. These need factoring out into a single
parameterised implementation, either in CGObjCRuntime or CodeGenFunction.
The EmitObjCXXTryStmt() function was added so that the changes to fix a bug
in time for the 2.9 release would be self-contained and reduce the chances of
breaking anything else, but these should be done properly as soon as
possible.
- Split up some large functions (e.g. GenerateClass()) into smaller functions
for generating the various data structures.
- The method lookup code into the two subclasses, removing the conditionals in
the message send functions.
- Add doxygen comments on the remaining undocumented functions.
- We seem to be generating global pointer variables for selectors, then storing
a pointer to the selector, then generating a load of this pointer (and then a
load of the real selector later) every time a static selector is used. I can
only assume I was asleep or drunk when I did this - we should just be
referencing the selectors directly in the selector array.
llvm-svn: 128152
- BlockDeclRefExprs always store VarDecls
- BDREs no longer store copy expressions
- BlockDecls now store a list of captured variables, information about
how they're captured, and a copy expression if necessary
With that in hand, change IR generation to use the captures data in
blocks instead of walking the block independently.
Additionally, optimize block layout by emitting fields in descending
alignment order, with a heuristic for filling in words when alignment
of the end of the block header is insufficient for the most aligned
field.

mostly in avoiding unnecessary work at compile time but also in producing more
sensible block orderings.
Move the destructor cleanups for local variables over to use lazy cleanups.
Eventually all cleanups will do this; for now we have some awkward code
duplication.
Tell IR generation just to never produce landing pads in -fno-exceptions.
This is a much more comprehensive solution to a problem which previously was
half-solved by checks in most cleanup-generation spots.

self-host. Hopefully these results hold up on different platforms.
I tried to keep the GNU ObjC runtime happy, but it's hard for me to test.
Reimplement how clang generates IR for exceptions. Instead of creating new
invoke destinations which sequentially chain to the previous destination,
push a more semantic representation of *why* we need the cleanup/catch/filter
behavior, then collect that information into a single landing pad upon request.
Also reorganizes how normal cleanups (i.e. cleanups triggered by non-exceptional
control flow) are generated, since it's actually fairly closely tied in with
the former. Remove the need to track which cleanup scope a block is associated
with.
Document a lot of previously poorly-understood (by me, at least) behavior.
The new framework implements the Horrible Hack (tm), which requires every
landing pad to have a catch-all so that inlining will work. Clang no longer
requires the Horrible Hack just to make exceptions flow correctly within
a function, however. The HH is an unfortunate requirement of LLVM's EH IR.

provides C "integer type" semantics in C and C++ "integral type"
semantics in C++.
Note that I still need to update isIntegerType (and possibly other
predicates) using the same approach I've taken for
isIntegralType(). The two should have the same meaning, but currently
don't (!).

pointers and need to use ObjC's objc_memmove_collectable
API (radar 8070772).

ObjCObjectType, which is basically just a pair of
one of {primitive-id, primitive-Class, user-defined @class}
with
a list of protocols.
An ObjCObjectPointerType is therefore just a pointer which always points to
one of these types (possibly sugared). ObjCInterfaceType is now just a kind
of ObjCObjectType which happens to not carry any protocols.
Alter a rather large number of use sites to use ObjCObjectType instead of
ObjCInterfaceType. Store an ObjCInterfaceType as a pointer on the decl rather
than hashing them in a FoldingSet. Remove some number of methods that are no
longer used, at least after this patch.
By simplifying ObjCObjectPointerType, we are now able to easily remove and apply
pointers to Objective-C types, which is crucial for a certain kind of ObjC++
metaprogramming common in WebKit.
llvm-svn: 103870
Emitted some metadata on message sends to allow a later pass to do some speculative inlining of class methods (GNU runtime). Speculative inlining of instance methods requires type feedback to be useful (work in progress), but for class methods it works quite nicely.

This works around stack corruption / crashes resulting from PR6944, and also
works around people who expect 'what works on my machine' to work everywhere
(GCC crashes in a number of cases on SPARC that should now work correctly with
clang).

statements. Instead of the @try having a single @catch, where all of
the @catch's were chained (using an O(n^2) algorithm nonetheless),
@try just holds an array of its @catch blocks. The resulting AST is
slightly more compact (not important) and better represents the actual
language semantics (good).

This introduces FunctionType::ExtInfo to hold the calling convention and the
noreturn attribute. The next patch will extend it to include the regparm
attribute and fix the bug.
llvm-svn: 99920
follows (as conservatively as possible) gcc's current behavior: attributes
written on return types that don't apply there are applied to the function
instead, etc. Only parse CC attributes as type attributes, not as decl attributes;
don't accepet noreturn as a decl attribute on ValueDecls, either (it still
needs to apply to other decls, like blocks). Consistently consume CC/noreturn
information throughout codegen; enforce this by removing their default values
in CodeGenTypes::getFunctionInfo().

- Don't use GlobalAliases with non-0 GEPs (GNU runtime) - this was unsupported and LLVM will be generating errors if you do it soon. This also simplifies the code generated by the GNU runtime a bit.
- Make GetSelector() return a constant (GNU runtime), not a load of a store of a constant.
- Recognise @selector() expressions as valid static initialisers (as GCC does).
- Add methods to GCObjCRuntime to emit selectors as constants (needed for using @selector() expressions as constants. These need implementing for the Mac runtimes - I couldn't figure out how to do this, they seem to require a load.
- Store an ObjCMethodDecl in an ObjCSelectorExpr so that we can get at the type information for the selector. This is needed for generating typed selectors from @selector() expressions (as GCC does). Ideally, this information should be stored in the Selector, but that would be an invasive change. We should eventually add checks for common uses of @selector() expressions. Possibly adding an attribute that can be applied to method args providing the types of a selector so, for example, you'd do something like this:
- (id)performSelector: __attribute__((selector_types(id, SEL, id)))(SEL)
withObject: (id)object;
Then, any @selector() expressions passed to the method will be check to ensure that it conforms to this signature. We do this at run time on the GNU runtime already, but it would be nice to do it at compile time on all runtimes.
- Made @selector() expressions emit type info if available and the runtime supports it.
Someone more familiar with the Mac runtime needs to implement the GetConstantSelector() function in CGObjCMac. This currently just assert()s.
llvm-svn: 95189
This fixes throwing exceptions inside @catch blocks nested inside outer @try blocks and also fixes jumping from an inner @finally to an outer @finally (via any relevant @catch blocks).
The code exhibiting this bug was based on code from CGObjCMac. I believe that this bug may still be present on the Mac runtimes, although the test case in the bug contains a few GNUisms and won't compile without some minor tweaks with Apple's libobjc.

Several of the existing methods were identical to their respective
specializations, and so have been removed entirely. Several more 'leaf'
optimizations were introduced.
The getAsFoo() methods which imposed extra conditions, like
getAsObjCInterfacePointerType(), have been left in place.

This currently breaks test/SemaObjC/id-isa-ref.m and issues some spurious warnings when you attempt to assign a struct objc_class* value to a Class variable. The test case probably should fail as it's written, because without the definition of Class the compiler should not assume struct objc_class* is a valid receiver type, but it's left broken because it would be nice if we could get that passing too for the special case of isa.

The idea is to segregate Objective-C "object" pointers from general C pointers (utilizing the recently added ObjCObjectPointerType). The fun starts in Sema::GetTypeForDeclarator(), where "SomeInterface *" is now represented by a single AST node (rather than a PointerType whose Pointee is an ObjCInterfaceType). Since a significant amount of code assumed ObjC object pointers where based on C pointers/structs, this patch is very tedious. It should also explain why it is hard to accomplish this in smaller, self-contained patches.
This patch does most of the "heavy lifting" related to moving from PointerType->ObjCObjectPointerType. It doesn't include all potential "cleanups". The good news is additional cleanups can be done later (some are noted in the code). This patch is so large that I didn't want to include any changes that are purely aesthetic.
By making the ObjC types truly built-in, they are much easier to work with (and require fewer "hacks"). For example, there is no need for ASTContext::isObjCIdStructType() or ASTContext::isObjCClassStructType()! We believe this change (and the follow-up cleanups) will pay dividends over time.
Given the amount of code change, I do expect some fallout from this change (though it does pass all of the clang tests). If you notice any problems, please let us know asap! Thanks.

Remove ASTContext parameter from DeclContext's methods. This change cascaded down to other Decl's methods and changes to call sites started "escalating".
