[llvm-dev] virtual registers

[Laura personen via llvm-dev]

Thank you for your swift reply.

I also need some reference about instruction sequence in llvm. I mean, do
the order of instructions remain the same as they appear in a .ll file? or
do they change by different optimizations (e.g. SSA-based Machine Code
Optimizations
<http://llvm.org/docs/CodeGenerator.html#ssa-based-machine-code-optimizations>,
Late Machine Code Optimizations
<http://llvm.org/docs/CodeGenerator.html#late-machine-code-optimizations>,
etc.)?

If they change, which algorithms are used for reordering instructions? I
appreciate a reference that explains them or just gives the name of the
algorithms that are used.
