9 // This file implements a transformation that synthesizes entry counts for
10 // functions and attaches !prof metadata to functions with the synthesized
11 // counts. The presence of !prof metadata with counter name set to
12 // 'synthesized_function_entry_count' indicate that the value of the counter is
13 // an estimation of the likely execution count of the function. This transform
14 // is applied only in non PGO mode as functions get 'real' profile-based
15 // function entry counts in the PGO mode.
16 //
17 // The transformation works by first assigning some initial values to the entry
18 // counts of all functions and then doing a top-down traversal of the
19 // callgraph-scc to propagate the counts. For each function the set of callsites
20 // and their relative block frequency is gathered. The relative block frequency
21 // multiplied by the entry count of the caller and added to the callee's entry
22 // count. For non-trivial SCCs, the new counts are computed from the previous
23 // counts and updated in one shot.
