12// This pass is a nonce pass intended to allow manipulation of the implicitly
13// nesting pass manager. For example, it can be used to cause a CGSCC pass
14// manager to be closed prior to running a new collection of function passes.
15//
16// FIXME: This is a huge HACK. This should be removed when the pass manager's
17// nesting is made explicit instead of implicit.

27///
28/// There is no mechanism for ending a CGSCC pass manager once one is started.
29/// This prevents extension points from having clear deterministic ordering
30/// when they are phrased as non-module passes.
