//===- DCE.cpp - Code to perform dead code elimination --------------------===//
//
// This file implements dead code elimination and basic block merging.
//
// Specifically, this:
//   * removes definitions with no uses (including unused constants)
//   * removes basic blocks with no predecessors
//   * merges a basic block into its predecessor if there is only one and the
//     predecessor only has one successor.
//   * Eliminates PHI nodes for basic blocks with a single predecessor
//   * Eliminates a basic block that only contains an unconditional branch
//   * Eliminates method prototypes that are not referenced
//
// TODO: This should REALLY be worklist driven instead of iterative.  Right now,
// we scan linearly through values, removing unused ones as we go.  The problem
// is that this may cause other earlier values to become unused.  To make sure
// that we get them all, we iterate until things stop changing.  Instead, when
// removing a value, recheck all of its operands to see if they are now unused.
// Piece of cake, and more efficient as well.
//
// Note, this is not trivial, because we have to worry about invalidating
// iterators.  :(
