Beforehand, it was unclear whether rust was performing the "recommended set" of
optimizations provided by LLVM for code. This commit changes the way we run
passes to closely mirror that of clang, which in theory does it correctly. The
notable changes include:
keep up with as LLVM changes and we don't guaranteed always know the best
order in which to run passes
to populate the various pass managers run.
what clang does, and I presume that we may see a speed boost from the
module-wide passes just having to do less work. I have no measured this.
to not get mixed up with the other passes
analysis passes
Some new features include:
-Z print-llvm-passes
--passes
, the passes are now appended to thedefault list of passes instead of overwriting them.
--passes list
is now generated by LLVM instead of maintaininga list of passes ourselves
disabled with
-Z no-vectorize-loops
