Subject: [PATCH] Introduce new param: AVG_LOOP_NITER
gcc/ChangeLog:
2016-06-21 Martin Liska <mliska@suse.cz>
* params.def: Add avg-loop niter.
* tree-ssa-loop-ivopts.c (avg_loop_niter): Use the param.
* cfgloopanal.c (expected_loop_iterations_unbounded): Likewise.
* doc/invoke.texi: Document the new parameter.
