+//===-- X86InstrBuilder.h - Functions to aid building x86 insts -*- C++ -*-===//
+//
+// This file exposes functions that may be used with BuildMI from the
+// MachineInstrBuilder.h file to handle X86'isms in a clean way.
+//
+// The BuildMem function may be used with the BuildMI function to add entire
+// memory references in a single, typed, function call.  X86 memory references
+// can be very complex expressions (described in the README), so wrapping them
+// up behind an easier to use interface makes sense.  Descriptions of the
+// functions are included below.
