[LLVMdev] InstMetrics would look a lot like NoTTI
FWIW, this all makes perfect sense from a philosophical point of view.
If anything, I think it is absolutely critical to differentiate the very
interface this exposes from the TTI interfaces. The latter should be cost
functions, that are as accurate as we can make them while remaining largely
"conservative" (IE, don't assume any clever brilliance is the chip or

[LLVMdev] InstMetrics would look a lot like NoTTI
I want to expose most of the logic in NoTTI to passes that do not depend on TTI for the purpose of pure IR-level instruction metrics. For example, we don't want the presence of certain "free" intrinsics to affect the patterns handled by canonical transforms. It would still be ok to use DataLayout here, so certain casts are considered free. The idea of "free" here has little
