Fix sourcekitd persistent file-locks on Windows

[z2oh]

Fixes https://github.com/swiftlang/sourcekit-lsp/issues/644

During semantic analysis, swift::vfs::getFileOrSTDIN opens files with a default IsVolatile=false arg, which makes its way down through MemoryBuffer::getOpenFile, to shouldUseMmap. If this function's heuristics returned true, the file would be mmapped by sourcekitd and then could no longer be saved in an open editor until sourcekitd was killed. One of the heuristics used is a file-size check to avoid memory-mapping small files, and so this issue would only trigger on large source files.

This patch propagates LangOpts.DiagnosticsEditorMode into SourceManager as a new editorMode boolean, that is now passed as the IsVolatile parameter to swift::vfs::getFileOrSTDIN, avoiding memory mapping files when the compiler is being invoked by sourcekitd.

Stack trace for the curious:

cc @ahoppen: would appreciate any thoughts you have here!

[ahoppen]

I would prefer to not have a distinction between SourceKit and a compilation here. I imagine that you could run into a similar issue during compilation if the source file takes a considerable amount of time to compile. Could we instead check if the current platform is Windows and, if so, always pass true for IsVolatile?

[compnerd]

I don't think that's a good idea. This is going to increase memory pressure on windows, which already has a slower build rate due to the fork exec heavy nature of the swift compiler (clang does an in process cc1). Not being able to save on top of the file during compilation is fine (and expected behavior on windows). When the file is being opened by LSP, it doesn't get closed again, which prevents subsequent writes indefinitely.

[bnbarham]

Can we limit this to Windows only then? And possibly also rename EditorMode to... something 😅? OpenAsVolatile? Any files opened by the editor are already in-memory anyway, so it seems odd to open any other files as volatile generally.

When the file is being opened by LSP

Just to be clear, when LSP opens a file we create an in-memory buffer. If this fixes the issue then it's the secondary files in the same module that are being opened.

Also seems like there's some underlying bug here somewhere too, since I wouldn't expect

it doesn't get closed again

I'm okay with scoping this to Windows. I don't remember if POSIX guarantees that the mmap I/O backing store is modifiable when mapped.

Hmm, with mmap'ed data, it needs to remain mapped right? Or is the data processed and then the buffer dropped?

I would naively expect the latter, but it's quite possible we're holding the files open while the ASTContext is alive (and maybe we do actually need to). That shouldn't be indefinitely, could be a somewhat lengthy period though.

I would expect it to be kept while the ASTContext is alive as the MemoryBuffer will vend StringRefs and those would become invalid should the backing buffer disappear. The problem is that during the duration that it kept alive, the file is unwritable, including for saving edits from the editor.

[z2oh]

I'm happy to scope this down to Windows only and to rename EditorMode. This probably warrants the addition of a new flag as well, instead of glomming onto DiagnosticsEditorMode. Thank you for the feedback, I will update the PR soon 👍

The buffer is loaded and owned by SourceManager, which is owned by a CompilerInstance. I'm looking at the lifetime of a CompilerInstance w.r.t sourcekitd; observationally, this object seems to be recreated when you switch open files/modules in the editor. However, once a file is opened in this way, it appears to stay open until the sourcekitd process is killed. I'll do some more investigation here.

That said, avoiding mmapping source files opened by sourcekitd on Windows is desirable regardless of the length of time they are held open, as even transient save failures are a frustrating experience.

[bnbarham]

@swift-ci please test

[compnerd]

I think that this is ready to merge, going to merge to improve the windows state.
