9 // This pass transforms loops by placing phi nodes at the end of the loops for
10 // all values that are live across the loop boundary. For example, it turns
11 // the left into the right code:
12 //
13 // for (...) for (...)
14 // if (c) if (c)
15 // X1 = ... X1 = ...
16 // else else
17 // X2 = ... X2 = ...
18 // X3 = phi(X1, X2) X3 = phi(X1, X2)
19 // ... = X3 + 4 X4 = phi(X3)
20 // ... = X4 + 4
21 //
22 // This is still valid LLVM; the extra phi nodes are purely redundant, and will
23 // be trivially eliminated by InstCombine. The major benefit of this
24 // transformation is that it makes many other loop optimizations, such as
25 // LoopUnswitching, simpler.
