// Add the Polly passes to the optimization passes executed at -O3.
// This file composes the individual LLVM-IR passes provided by Polly to a
// functional polyhedral optimizer. The polyhedral optimizer is automatically
// made available to LLVM based compilers by loading the Polly shared library
// into such a compiler.
//
// The Polly optimizer is made available by executing a static constructor that
// registers the individual Polly passes in the LLVM pass manager builder. The
// passes are registered such that the default behaviour of the compiler is not
// changed, but that the flag '-polly' provided at optimization level '-O3'
// enables additional polyhedral optimizations.

/// @brief Register Polly passes such that they form a polyhedral optimizer.
///
/// The individual Polly passes are registered in the pass manager such that
/// they form a full polyhedral optimizer. The flow of the optimizer starts with
/// a set of preparing transformations that canonicalize the LLVM-IR such that
/// the LLVM-IR is easier for us to understand and to optimizes. On the
/// canonicalized LLVM-IR we first run the ScopDetection pass, which detects
/// static control flow regions. Those regions are then translated by the
/// ScopInfo pass into a polyhedral representation. As a next step, a scheduling
/// optimizer is run on the polyhedral representation and finally the optimized
/// polyhedral representation is code generated back to LLVM-IR.
///
/// Besides this core functionality, we optionally schedule passes that provide
/// a graphical view of the scops (Polly[Only]Viewer, Polly[Only]Printer), that
/// allow the export/import of the polyhedral representation
/// (JSCON[Exporter|Importer]) or that show the cfg after code generation.
///
/// For certain parts of the Polly optimizer, several alternatives are provided:
///
/// As scheduling optimizer we support PoCC (http://pocc.sourceforge.net), PLUTO
/// (http://pluto-compiler.sourceforge.net) as well as the isl scheduling
/// optimizer (http://freecode.com/projects/isl). The isl optimizer is the
/// default optimizer.
/// It is also possible to run Polly with no optimizer. This mode is mainly
/// provided to analyze the run and compile time changes caused by the
/// scheduling optimizer.
///
/// Polly supports both CLooG (http://www.cloog.org) as well as the isl internal
/// code generator. For the moment, the CLooG code generator is enabled by
/// default.

///
/// 1) We need to schedule more canonicalization passes
///
/// As nothing is run before Polly, it is necessary to run a set of preparing
/// transformations before Polly to canonicalize the LLVM-IR and to allow
