10// This pass exposes codegen information to IR-level passes. Every
11// transformation that uses codegen information is broken into three parts:
12// 1. The IR-level analysis pass.
13// 2. The IR-level transformation interface which provides the needed
14//    information.
15// 3. Codegen-level implementation which uses target-specific hooks.
16//
17// This file defines #2, which is the interface that IR-level transformations
18// use for querying the codegen.
