//
// This file implements basic block placement transformations using the CFG
// structure and branch probability estimates.
//
// The pass strives to preserve the structure of the CFG (that is, retain
// a topological ordering of basic blocks) in the absence of a *strong* signal
// to the contrary from probabilities. However, within the CFG structure, it
// attempts to choose an ordering which favors placing more likely sequences of
// blocks adjacent to each other.
//
// The algorithm works from the inner-most loop within a function outward, and
// at each stage walks through the basic blocks, trying to coalesce them into
// sequential chains where allowed by the CFG (or demanded by heavy
// probabilities). Finally, it walks the blocks in topological order, and the
// first time it reaches a chain of basic blocks, it schedules them in the
// function in-order.

// from Pred to Succ, as well as the additional cost associated
// with the needed unconditional jump instruction from Pred To Succ.

// probability threshold that is needed for edge BB->Succ to be considered.
// Without profile data, the heuristic requires the branch bias to be
// a lot larger to make sure the signal is very strong (e.g. 80% default).
// -----------------------------------------------------------------

// S
// / \
// | \
// BB Pred
// \ /
// Succ
// ..
//

// on the right:
//
// topo-order:
//
// S----- ---S
// | | | |
// ---BB | | BB
// | | | |
// | Pred-- | Succ--
// | | | |
// ---Succ ---Pred--
//
// cost = freq(S->Pred) + freq(BB->Succ) cost = 2 * freq (S->Pred)
// = freq(S->Pred) + freq(S->BB)
//
// If we have profile data (i.e, branch probabilities can be trusted), the
// cost (number of taken branches) with layout S->BB->Succ->Pred is 2 *
// freq(S->Pred) while the cost of topo order is freq(S->Pred) + freq(S->BB).
// We know Prob(S->BB) > Prob(S->Pred), so freq(S->BB) > freq(S->Pred), which
// means the cost of topological order is greater.
// When profile data is not available, however, we need to be more
// conservative. If the branch prediction is wrong, breaking the topo-order
// will actually yield a layout with large cost. For this reason, we need
// strong biased branch at block S with Prob(S->BB) in order to select
// BB->Succ. This is equivalent to looking the CFG backward with backward
// edge: Prob(Succ->BB) needs to >= HotProb in order to be selected (without
// profile data).
