+
+  // We split runs of bit-fields into a sequence of "access units". When we 
emit
+  // a load or store of a bit-field, we'll load/store the entire containing
+  // access unit. As mentioned, the standard requires that these loads and
+  // stores must not interfere with accesses to other memory locations, and it
+  // defines the bit-field's memory location as the current run of
+  // non-zero-width bit-fields. So an access unit must never overlap with
+  // non-bit-field storage or cross a zero-width bit-field. Otherwise, we're
+  // free to draw the lines as we see fit.
+
+  // Drawing these lines well can be complicated. LLVM generally can't modify a
+  // program to access memory that it didn't before, so using very narrow 
access
+  // units can prevent the compiler from using optimal access patterns. For
+  // example, suppose a run of bit-fields occupies four bytes in a struct. If 
we
+  // split that into four 1-byte access units, then a sequence of assignments
+  // that doesn't touch all four bytes may have to be emitted with multiple
+  // 8-bit stores instead of a single 32-bit store. On the other hand, if we 
use
+  // very wide access units, we may find ourselves emitting accesses to
+  // bit-fields we didn't really need to touch, just because LLVM was unable to
+  // clean up after us.
+
+  // It is desirable to have access units be aligned powers of 2 no larger than
+  // a register. (On non-strict alignment ISAs, the alignment requirement can 
be
+  // dropped.) A three byte access unit will be accessed using 2-byte and 
1-byte
+  // accesses and bit manipulation. If no bitfield straddles across the two
+  // separate accesses, it is better to have separate 2-byte and 1-byte access
+  // units, as then LLVM will not generate unnecessary memory accesses, or bit
+  // manipulation. Similarly, on a strict-alignment architecture, it is better
+  // to keep access-units naturally aligned, to avoid similar bit
+  // manipulation synthesizing larger unaligned accesses.
+
+  // We do this in two phases, processing a sequential run of bitfield
+  // declarations.
+
+  // a) Bitfields that share parts of a single byte are, of necessity, placed 
in
+  // the same access unit. That unit will encompass a consecutive
+  // run where adjacent bitfields share parts of a byte. (The first bitfield of
+  // such an access unit will start at the beginning of a byte.)
+
+  // b) Accumulate adjacent access units when the combined unit is naturally
+  // sized, no larger than a register, and on a strict alignment ISA,
+  // aligned. Note that this requires lookahead to one or more subsequent 
access
+  // units. For instance, consider a 2-byte access-unit followed by 2 1-byte
+  // units. We can merge that into a 4-byte access-unit, but we would not want
+  // to merge a 2-byte followed by a single 1-byte (and no available tail
+  // padding).
+
+  // This accumulation is prevented when:
+  // *) it would cross a zero-width bitfield (ABI-dependent), or
+  // *) one of the candidate access units contains a volatile bitfield, or
+  // *) fine-grained bitfield access option is in effect.
