28/// Expand an atomic RMW instruction into a loop utilizing
29/// cmpxchg. You'll want to make sure your target machine likes cmpxchg
30/// instructions in the first place and that there isn't another, better,
31/// transformation available (for example AArch32/AArch64 have linked loads).
32///
33/// This is useful in passes which can't rewrite the more exotic RMW
34/// instructions directly into a platform specific intrinsics (because, say,
35/// those intrinsics don't exist). If such a pass is able to expand cmpxchg
36/// instructions directly however, then, with this function, it could avoid two
37/// extra module passes (avoiding passes by `-atomic-expand` and itself). A
38/// specific example would be PNaCl's `RewriteAtomics` pass.
39///
40/// Given: atomicrmw some_op iN* %addr, iN %incr ordering
41///
42/// The standard expansion we produce is:
43/// [...]
44/// %init_loaded = load atomic iN* %addr
45/// br label %loop
46/// loop:
47/// %loaded = phi iN [ %init_loaded, %entry ], [ %new_loaded, %loop ]
48/// %new = some_op iN %loaded, %incr
49/// ; This is what -atomic-expand will produce using this function on i686
50/// targets:
51/// %pair = cmpxchg iN* %addr, iN %loaded, iN %new_val
52/// %new_loaded = extractvalue { iN, i1 } %pair, 0
53/// %success = extractvalue { iN, i1 } %pair, 1
54/// ; End callback produced IR
55/// br i1 %success, label %atomicrmw.end, label %loop
56/// atomicrmw.end:
57/// [...]
58///
59/// Returns true if the containing function was modified.
