10 // This file implements dead code elimination and basic block merging, along
11 // with a collection of other peephole control flow optimizations.  For example:
12 //
13 //   * Removes basic blocks with no predecessors.
14 //   * Merges a basic block into its predecessor if there is only one and the
15 //     predecessor only has one successor.
16 //   * Eliminates PHI nodes for basic blocks with a single predecessor.
17 //   * Eliminates a basic block that only contains an unconditional branch.
18 //   * Changes invoke instructions to nounwind functions to be calls.
19 //   * Change things like "if (x) if (y)" into "if (x&y)".
20 //   * etc..
