I suppose there are 3 cases:

1. IR passes that are run in the codegen pipeline, but also run in the regular optimization pipeline. For example, AMDGPU runs SROA and a few other ânoncodegenâ IR passes as part of codegen. These obviously are both.
2. Reducing testcases. I extract the IR at some point in the codegen pipeline, and want to see what happens if I ran other passes at that point.
3. Experiments to see if there is value in moving a codegen IR pass earlier in the pipeline, into the non-codegen IR passes
