I should have brought it up earlier, but I forgot. I think a better (and
simpler) proposal is to make -fprofile-generate and -fprofile-use turn on IR
based PGO.
-fprofile-generate and -fprofile-use options were introduced by Diego (cc'ed)
recently for GCC option compatibility. At that time, IR based PGO was not yet
ready, so they were made aliases to FE instrumentation options
-fprofile-instr-generate and -fprofile-instr-use. Now I think it is time to
make it right. The documentation only says that these two options are gcc
compatible options to control profile generation and use, but does not specify
the underlying implementation. It is also likely that Google is the only user
of this option. If a user using this option really want FE instrumentation,
there is always -fprofile-instr-generate to use. It also more likely that IR
instrumentation is what user wants when using GCC compatible options (as they
behave more similarly).
