9/// \file This pass attempts to replace out argument usage with a return of a
10/// struct.
11///
12/// We can support returning a lot of values directly in registers, but
13/// idiomatic C code frequently uses a pointer argument to return a second value
14/// rather than returning a struct by value. GPU stack access is also quite
15/// painful, so we want to avoid that if possible. Passing a stack object
16/// pointer to a function also requires an additional address expansion code
17/// sequence to convert the pointer to be relative to the kernel's scratch wave
18/// offset register since the callee doesn't know what stack frame the incoming
19/// pointer is relative to.
20///
21/// The goal is to try rewriting code that looks like this:
22///
23/// int foo(int a, int b, int* out) {
24/// *out = bar();
25/// return a + b;
26/// }
27///
28/// into something like this:
29///
30/// std::pair<int, int> foo(int a, int b) {
31/// return std::pair(a + b, bar());
32/// }
33///
34/// Typically the incoming pointer is a simple alloca for a temporary variable
35/// to use the API, which if replaced with a struct return will be easily SROA'd
36/// out when the stub function we create is inlined
37///
38/// This pass introduces the struct return, but leaves the unused pointer
39/// arguments and introduces a new stub function calling the struct returning
40/// body. DeadArgumentElimination should be run after this to clean these up.
