// This file defines various functions that are used to clone chunks of LLVM
// code for various purposes.  This varies from copying whole modules into new
// modules, to cloning functions with different arguments, to inlining
// functions, to copying basic blocks to support loop unrolling or superblock
// formation, etc.

/// the basic block will be inserted into the same function that it was cloned
/// from (loop unrolling would use this, for example).
///
/// Also, note that this function makes a direct copy of the basic block, and
/// can thus produce illegal LLVM code.  In particular, it will copy any PHI
/// nodes from the original block, even though there are no predecessors for the
/// newly cloned block (thus, phi nodes will have to be updated).  Also, this
/// block will branch to the old successors of the original block: these
/// successors will have to have any PHI nodes updated to account for the new
/// incoming edges.

/// is recorded in the VMap map.

/// names, specify it as the optional third parameter.
///
/// If you would like the basic block to be auto-inserted into the end of a
/// function, you can specify it as the optional fourth parameter.
///
/// If you would like to collect additional information about the cloned
/// function, you can specify a ClonedCodeInfo object with the optional fifth
