+// Pointer arguments to kernel functions need to be lowered specially.
+//
+// 1. Copy byval struct args to local memory. This is a preparation for handling
+// cases like
+//
+// kernel void foo(struct A arg, ...)
+// {
+// struct A *p = &arg;
+// ...
+// ... = p->filed1 ... (this is no generic address for .param)
+// p->filed2 = ... (this is no write access to .param)
+// }
+//
+// 2. Convert non-byval pointer arguments of CUDA kernels to pointers in the
+// global address space. This allows later optimizations to emit
+// ld.global.*/st.global.* for accessing these pointer arguments. For
+// example,
+//
+// define void @foo(float* %input) {
+// %v = load float, float* %input, align 4
+// ...
+// }
+//
+// becomes
+//
+// define void @foo(float* %input) {
+// %input2 = addrspacecast float* %input to float addrspace(1)*
+// %input3 = addrspacecast float addrspace(1)* %input2 to float*
+// %v = load float, float* %input3, align 4
+// ...
+// }
+//
+// Later, NVPTXFavorNonGenericAddrSpaces will optimize it to
+//
+// define void @foo(float* %input) {
+// %input2 = addrspacecast float* %input to float addrspace(1)*
+// %v = load float, float addrspace(1)* %input2, align 4
+// ...
+// }
+//
+// 3. Convert pointers in a byval kernel parameter to pointers in the global
+// address space. As #2, it allows NVPTX to emit more ld/st.global. E.g.,
+//
+// struct S {
+// int *x;
+// int *y;
+// };
+// __global__ void foo(S s) {
+// int *b = s.y;
+// // use b
+// }
+//
+// "b" points to the global address space. In the IR level,
+//
+// define void @foo({i32*, i32*}* byval %input) {
+// %b_ptr = getelementptr {i32*, i32*}, {i32*, i32*}* %input, i64 0, i32 1
+// %b = load i32*, i32** %b_ptr
+// ; use %b
+// }
+//
+// becomes
+//
+// define void @foo({i32*, i32*}* byval %input) {
+// %b_ptr = getelementptr {i32*, i32*}, {i32*, i32*}* %input, i64 0, i32 1
+// %b = load i32*, i32** %b_ptr
+// %b_global = addrspacecast i32* %b to i32 addrspace(1)*
+// %b_generic = addrspacecast i32 addrspace(1)* %b_global to i32*
+// ; use %b_generic
+// }
+//
+// TODO: merge this pass with NVPTXFavorNonGenericAddrSpace so that other passes
+// don't cancel the addrspacecast pair this pass emits.
