#
# The way you use this is you create a script that takes in as its first
# argument a count. The script passes into LLVM the count via a command
# line flag that disables a pass after LLVM has run after the pass has
# run for count number of times. Then the script invokes a test of some
# sort and indicates whether LLVM successfully compiled the test via the
# scripts exit status. Then you invoke bisect as follows:
#
# bisect --start=<start_num> --end=<end_num> ./script.sh "%(count)s"
#
# And bisect will continually call ./script.sh with various counts using
# the exit status to determine success and failure.
