// DeadInstElimination - This pass quickly removes trivially dead instructions
// without modifying the CFG of the function.  It is a BasicBlockPass, so it
// runs efficiently when queued next to other BasicBlockPass's.
//
Pass *createDeadInstEliminationPass();

//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//

// DeadCodeElimination - This pass is more powerful than DeadInstElimination,
// because it is worklist driven that can potentially revisit instructions when
// their other instructions become dead, to eliminate chains of dead
// computations.

// DeadStoreElimination - This pass deletes stores that are post-dominated by
// must-aliased stores and are not loaded used between the stores.
//
FunctionPass *createDeadStoreEliminationPass();

// AggressiveDCE - This pass uses the SSA based Aggressive DCE algorithm.  This
// algorithm assumes instructions are dead until proven otherwise, which makes
// it more successful are removing non-obviously dead instructions.

// instructions dead, so a subsequent DCE pass is useful.
//
// This pass combines things like:
//    %Y = add int 1, %X

//        FROM CODE                           TO CODE
//   %X = alloca int, uint 1                 ret int 42

//   ret int %Y

// hacking easier.

// For example:  4 + (x + 5)  ->  x + (4 + 5)

// BreakCriticalEdges - Break all of the critical edges in the CFG by inserting
// a dummy basic block. This pass may be "required" by passes that cannot deal
// with critical edges. For this usage, a pass must call:
//
//   AU.addRequiredID(BreakCriticalEdgesID);

// entirely accurate (exceptional control flow edges are not correct anymore) so
// only very simple things should be done after the lowerinvoke pass has run
// (like generation of native code).  This should *NOT* be used as a general
