12 // This pass is a nonce pass intended to allow manipulation of the implicitly
13 // nesting pass manager. For example, it can be used to cause a CGSCC pass
14 // manager to be closed prior to running a new collection of function passes.
15 //
16 // FIXME: This is a huge HACK. This should be removed when the pass manager's
17 // nesting is made explicit instead of implicit.
