I'm finally got a few free days to upstream the Swift coroutine patches.
I believe Swift is the primary production client of LLVM's coroutine
code (although I do know there are some brave souls using Clang's
experimental coroutines support), so in a sense I'm now the code owner
of this, but I'd still to run through the steps of the plan to give
people a chance to comment:
1. Translate the patches currently in Swift's LLVM branch back to master
and commit them as-is.
2. Generalize LLVM's coroutines documentation to talk about ABI
lowerings as a core concept, along the basic lines I covered in my LLVM
'18 talk.
3. Add a new attribute to mark unlowered coroutine functions, update
some LLVM passes to honor that by not propagating summary information
out of the function, and update frontends to add that attribute to
coroutines instead of requiring there to be a pass which adds it
retroactively.
Also, if anyone specifically would like to be CC'ed on these patches as
they're upstreamed, please let me know.
John.
