Currently, the Embedded Swift's
libswift_Concurrency.a
includes an implementation of a default cooperative executor (via CooperativeGlobalExecutor.cpp) inside, and the mechanism to use a user-provided executor instead relies on the linker preferring code from a .o file and/or order of libraries listed on the linker time. This feels unintuitive and possibly error prone, so this PR changes the setup: Instead,libswift_Concurrency.a
stops including any global executor, and the user is expected to either explicitly link a new library,libswift_ConcurrencyDefaultExecutor.a
, or link in their own executor. If they don't do either, they'll receive a (pretty self-explanatory) linker error about missing symbols likeswift_task_enqueueGlobalImpl
, etc.
