 LLVM currently contains two pass managers, the legacy PM and the new PM. The
-optimization pipeline (aka the middle-end) works with both the legacy PM and
-the new PM, whereas the backend target-dependent code generation only works

-For the optimization pipeline, the new PM is the default PM. Using the legacy PM
