//
// This file implements a very simple profile guided basic block placement
// algorithm.  The idea is to put frequently executed blocks together at the
// start of the function, and hopefully increase the number of fall-through
// conditional branches.  If there is no profile information for a particular
// function, this pass basically orders blocks in depth-first order
//
// The algorithm implemented here is basically "Algo1" from "Profile Guided Code
// Positioning" by Pettis and Hansen, except that it uses basic block counts
// instead of edge counts.  This should be improved in many ways, but is very
// simple for now.
//
// Basically we "place" the entry block, then loop over all successors in a DFO,
// placing the most frequently executed successor until we run out of blocks.  I
// told you this was _extremely_ simplistic. :) This is also much slower than it
// could be.  When it becomes important, this pass will be rewritten to use a
// better algorithm, and then we can worry about efficiency.
