[LLVMdev] LLVM opt GVN.cpp

[GangRyung Uh]

I just googled and found some efforts to implement SSAPRE (1997 PLDI - Fred
Chow, et al.) which is dated 2011 mailing list and GVN-PRE (university of
utah). I wonder whether any well-recognized algorithm(s) and development
for PRE on ssa is available for LLVM.
