This makes a lot of sense, and it is indeed documented in the GCC internals
manual:
A small inter-procedural pass (SIMPLE_IPA_PASS) is a pass that does
everything at once and thus it can not be executed during WPA in WHOPR
mode. It defines only the Execute stage and during this stage it
accesses and modifies the function bodies. Such passes are useful for
optimization at LGEN or LTRANS time and are used, for example, to
implement early optimization before writing object files.
I got confused because the dump_file for my pass includes the substring 'wpa'.
Should I file a bug to change the name of the dumpfile to something more like
`ltrans*`?
Thanks for your help!
