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