10/// This file provides a collection of visitors which walk the (instruction)
11/// uses of a pointer. These visitors all provide the same essential behavior
12/// as an InstVisitor with similar template-based flexibility and
13/// implementation strategies.
14///
15/// These can be used, for example, to quickly analyze the uses of an alloca,
16/// global variable, or function argument.
17///
18/// FIXME: Provide a variant which doesn't track offsets and is cheaper.

167/// \brief A base class for visitors over the uses of a pointer value.
168///
169/// Once constructed, a user can call \c visit on a pointer value, and this
170/// will walk its uses and visit each instruction using an InstVisitor. It also
171/// provides visit methods which will recurse through any pointer-to-pointer
172/// transformations such as GEPs and bitcasts.
173///
174/// During the visit, the current Use* being visited is available to the
175/// subclass, as well as the current offset from the original base pointer if
176/// known.
177///
178/// The recursive visit of uses is accomplished with a worklist, so the only
179/// ordering guarantee is that an instruction is visited before any uses of it
180/// are visited. Note that this does *not* mean before any of its users are
181/// visited! This is because users can be visited multiple times due to
182/// multiple, different uses of pointers derived from the same base.
183///
184/// A particular Use will only be visited once, but a User may be visited
185/// multiple times, once per Use. This visits may notably have different
186/// offsets.
187///
188/// All visit methods on the underlying InstVisitor return a boolean. This
189/// return short-circuits the visit, stopping it immediately.
190///
191/// FIXME: Generalize this for all values rather than just instructions.
