//===- SCCP.cpp - Sparse Conditional Constant Propogation -----------------===//
//
// This file implements sparse conditional constant propogation and merging:
//
// Specifically, this:
//   * Assumes values are constant unless proven otherwise
//   * Assumes BasicBlocks are dead unless proven otherwise
//   * Proves values to be constant, and replaces them with constants
//   * Proves conditional branches constant, and unconditionalizes them
//   * Folds multiple identical constants in the constant pool together
//
// Notice that:
//   * This pass has a habit of making definitions be dead.  It is a good idea
//     to to run a DCE pass sometime after running this pass.
