//===- llvm/Transforms/CleanupGCCOutput.h - Cleanup GCC Output ---*- C++ -*--=//
//
+// These passes are used to cleanup the output of GCC. GCC's output is
+// unneccessarily gross for a couple of reasons. This pass does the following
+// things to try to clean it up:
+//
+// * Eliminate names for GCC types that we know can't be needed by the user.
+// * Eliminate names for types that are unused in the entire translation unit
+// * Fix various problems that we might have in PHI nodes and casts
+// * Link uses of 'void %foo(...)' to 'void %foo(sometypes)'
+//
+// Note: This code produces dead declarations, it is a good idea to run DCE
+// after this pass.
