30   read-after-write dependency (i.e. a true data dependency).  This is
31   here, not grouped with REG_DEP_ANTI and REG_DEP_OUTPUT, because some
32   passes use a literal 0 for it.  */

43/* Describes the insn as a whole; it says that the insn sets a
44   register to a constant value or to be equivalent to a memory
45   address.  If the register is spilled to the stack then the constant
46   value should be substituted for it.  The contents of the REG_EQUIV
47   is the constant value or memory address, which may be different
48   from the source of the SET although it has the same value.  A
49   REG_EQUIV note may also appear on an insn which copies a register
50   parameter to a pseudo-register, if there is a memory address which
51   could be used to hold that pseudo-register throughout the function.  */

72   of a branch as long as only one copy of the insn exists.  In that
73   case, these notes point from one to the other to allow code
74   generation to determine what any require information and to

121   rtx is an expression that defines the CFA.  In the simplest case, the
122   rtx could be just the stack_pointer_rtx; more common would be a PLUS
123   with a base register and a constant offset.  In the most complicated

131   expression, relative to the old CFA expression.  This rtx must be of
