8 //===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//
10 // This file implements a simple interprocedural pass which walks the
11 // call-graph, looking for functions which do not access or only read
12 // non-local memory, and marking them readnone/readonly. In addition,
13 // it marks function arguments (of pointer type) 'nocapture' if a call
14 // to the function does not create any copies of the pointer value that
15 // outlive the call. This more or less means that the pointer is only
16 // dereferenced, and not returned from the function or stored in a global.
17 // This pass is implemented as a bottom-up traversal of the call-graph.
