// This file implements the AArch64PromoteConstant pass which promotes constants
// to global variables when this is likely to be more efficient. Currently only
// types related to constant vector (i.e., constant vector, array of constant
// vectors, constant structure with a constant vector field, etc.) are promoted
// to global variables. Constant vectors are likely to be lowered in target
// constant pool during instruction selection already; therefore, the access
// will remain the same (memory load), but the structure types are not split
// into different constant pool accesses for each field. A bonus side effect is
// that created globals may be merged by the global merge pass.
//
// FIXME: This pass may be useful for other targets too.
