#ifndef GCC_MUX_UTILS_H

// A class that stores a choice "A or B", where A has type T1 * and B has
// type T2 *.  Both T1 and T2 must have an alignment greater than 1, since
// the low bit is used to identify B over A.  T1 and T2 can be the same.
//
// A can be a null pointer but B cannot.
//
// Barring the requirement that B must be nonnull, using the class is
// equivalent to using:
//
//     union { T1 *A; T2 *B; };
//
// and having a separate tag bit to indicate which alternative is active.
// However, using this class can have two advantages over a union:
//
// - It avoides the need to find somewhere to store the tag bit.
//
// - The compiler is aware that B cannot be null, which can make checks
//   of the form:
//
//       if (auto *B = mux.dyn_cast<T2 *> ())
//
//   more efficient.  With a union-based representation, the dyn_cast
//   check could fail either because MUX is an A or because MUX is a
//   null B, both of which require a run-time test.  With a pointer_mux,
//   only a check for MUX being A is needed.
