+/* This header generic type query and conversion functions.
+
+
+USING THE GENERIC TYPE FACILITY
+
+
+The user functions are:
+
+bool is_a <TYPE> (pointer)
+
+    Tests whether the pointer actually points to a more derived TYPE.
+
+    Suppose you have a symtab_node_def *ptr, AKA symtab_node ptr.  You can test
+    whether it points to a 'derived' cgraph_node as follows.
+
+      if (is_a <cgraph_node> (ptr))
+        ....
+
+
+TYPE *as_a <TYPE> (pointer)
+
+    Converts pointer to a TYPE*.
+
+    You can just assume that it is such a node.
+
+      do_something_with (as_a <cgraph_node> *ptr);
+
+TYPE *dyn_cast <TYPE> (pointer)
+
+    Converts pointer to TYPE* if and only if "is_a <TYPE> pointer".  Otherwise,
+    returns NULL.  This function is essentially a checked down cast.
+
+    This functions reduce compile time and increase type safety when treating a
+    generic item as a more specific item.
+
+    You can test and obtain a pointer to the 'derived' type in one indivisible
+    operation.
+
+      if (cgraph_node *cptr = dyn_cast <cgraph_node> (ptr))
+        ....
+
+    As an example, the code change is from
+
+      if (symtab_function_p (node))
+        {
+          struct cgraph_node *cnode = cgraph (node);
+          ....
+        }
+
+    to
+
+      if (cgraph_node *cnode = dyn_cast <cgraph_node> (node))
+        {
+          ....
+        }
+
+    The necessary conditional test defines a variable that holds a known good
+    pointer to the specific item and avoids subsequent conversion calls and
+    the assertion checks that may come with them.
+
+    When, the property test is embedded within a larger condition, the
+    variable declaration gets pulled out of the condition.  (This approach
+    leaves some room for using the variable inappropriately.)
+
+      if (symtab_variable_p (node) && varpool (node)->finalized)
+        varpool_analyze_node (varpool (node));
+
+    becomes
+
+      varpool_node *vnode = dyn_cast <varpool_node> (node);
+      if (vnode && vnode->finalized)
+        varpool_analyze_node (vnode);
+
+    Note that we have converted two sets of assertions in the calls to varpool
+    into safe and efficient use of a variable.
+
+
+If you use these functions and get a 'inline function not defined' or a
+'missing symbol' error message for 'is_a_helper<....>::test', it means that
+the connection between the types has not been made.  See below.
+
+
+EXTENDING THE GENERIC TYPE FACILITY
+
+Each connection between types must be made by defining a specialization of the
+template member function 'test' of the template class 'is_a_helper'.  For
+example,
+
+  template <>
+  template <>
+  inline bool
+  is_a_helper <cgraph_node>::test (symtab_node_def *p)
+  {
+    return p->symbol.type == SYMTAB_FUNCTION;
+  }
+
+If a simple reinterpret_cast between the pointer types is incorrect, then you
+must also specialize the template member function 'cast'.  Failure to do so
+when needed may result in a crash.  For example,
+
+  template <>
+  template <>
+  inline bool
+  is_a_helper <cgraph_node>::cast (symtab_node_def *p)
+  {
+    return &p->x_function;
+  }
