10 // This pass performs several transformations to transform natural loops into a
11 // simpler form, which makes subsequent analyses and transformations simpler and
12 // more effective.
13 //
14 // Loop pre-header insertion guarantees that there is a single, non-critical
15 // entry edge from outside of the loop to the loop header.  This simplifies a
16 // number of analyses and transformations, such as LICM.
17 //
18 // Loop exit-block insertion guarantees that all exit blocks from the loop
19 // (blocks which are outside of the loop that have predecessors inside of the
20 // loop) only have predecessors from inside of the loop (and are thus dominated
21 // by the loop header).  This simplifies transformations such as store-sinking
22 // that are built into LICM.
23 //
24 // This pass also guarantees that loops will have exactly one backedge.
25 //
26 // Note that the simplifycfg pass will clean up blocks which are split out but
27 // end up being unnecessary, so usage of this pass should not pessimize
28 // generated code.
29 //
30 // This pass obviously modifies the CFG, but updates loop information and
31 // dominator information.
