transform (func-lowering): remove specializations from function value…
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
… lowering and fix lowering of a function value of an unimplemented type

Previously, the function value lowering pass had special cases for when there were 0 or 1 function implementations.
However, the results of the pass were incorrect in both of these cases.
This change removes the specializations and fixes the transformation.

In the case that there was a single function implementation, the compiler emitted a select instruction to obtain the function pointer.
This selected between null and the implementing function pointer.
While this was technically correct, it failed to eliminate indirect function calls.
This prevented discovery of these calls by the coroutine lowering pass, and caused async function calls to be passed through unlowered.
As a result, the generated code had undefined behavior (usually resulting in a segfault).

In the case of no function implementations, the lowering code was correct.
However, the lowering code was not run.
The discovery of function signatures was accomplished by scanning implementations, and when there were no implementations nothing was discovered or lowered.

For maintainability reasons, I have removed both specializations rather than fixing them.
This substantially simplifies the code, and reduces the amount of variation that we need to worry about for testing purposes.
The IR now generated in the cases of 0 or 1 function implementations can be efficiently simplified by LLVM's optimization passes.
Therefore, there should not be a substantial regression in terms of performance or machine code size.
