//===-- LICM.cpp - Loop Invariant Code Motion Pass ------------------------===//
//
// This pass is a simple loop invariant code motion pass.  An interesting aspect
// of this pass is that it uses alias analysis for two purposes:
//
//  1. Moving loop invariant loads out of loops.  If we can determine that a
//     load inside of a loop never aliases anything stored to, we can hoist it
//     like any other instruction.
//  2. Scalar Promotion of Memory - If there is a store instruction inside of
//     the loop, we try to move the store to happen AFTER the loop instead of
//     inside of the loop.  This can only happen if a few conditions are true:
//       A. The pointer stored through is loop invariant
//       B. There are no stores or loads in the loop which _may_ alias the
//          pointer.  There are no calls in the loop which mod/ref the pointer.
//     If these conditions are true, we can promote the loads and stores in the
//     loop of the pointer to use a temporary alloca'd variable.  We then use
//     the mem2reg functionality to construct the appropriate SSA form for the
//     variable.
