      9 // This pass tries to make consecutive compares of values use same operands to
     10 // allow CSE pass to remove duplicated instructions.  For this it analyzes
     11 // branches and adjusts comparisons with immediate values by converting:
     12 //  * GE -> GT
     13 //  * GT -> GE
     14 //  * LT -> LE
     15 //  * LE -> LT
     16 // and adjusting immediate values appropriately.  It basically corrects two
     17 // immediate values towards each other to make them equal.
     18 //
     19 // Consider the following example in C:
     20 //
     21 //   if ((a < 5 && ...) || (a > 5 && ...)) {
     22 //        ~~~~~             ~~~~~
     23 //          ^                 ^
     24 //          x                 y
     25 //
     26 // Here both "x" and "y" expressions compare "a" with "5".  When "x" evaluates
     27 // to "false", "y" can just check flags set by the first comparison.  As a
     28 // result of the canonicalization employed by
     29 // SelectionDAGBuilder::visitSwitchCase, DAGCombine, and other target-specific
     30 // code, assembly ends up in the form that is not CSE friendly:
     31 //
     32 //     ...
     33 //     cmp      w8, #4
     34 //     b.gt     .LBB0_3
     35 //     ...
     36 //   .LBB0_3:
     37 //     cmp      w8, #6
     38 //     b.lt     .LBB0_6
     39 //     ...
     40 //
     41 // Same assembly after the pass:
     42 //
     43 //     ...
     44 //     cmp      w8, #5
     45 //     b.ge     .LBB0_3
     46 //     ...
     47 //   .LBB0_3:
     48 //     cmp      w8, #5     // <-- CSE pass removes this instruction
     49 //     b.le     .LBB0_6
     50 //     ...
     51 //
     52 // Currently only SUBS and ADDS followed by b.?? are supported.
     53 //
     54 // TODO: maybe handle TBNZ/TBZ the same way as CMP when used instead for "a < 0"
     55 // TODO: handle other conditional instructions (e.g. CSET)
     56 // TODO: allow second branching to be anything if it doesn't require adjusting
