GCC's Global Reg. Allocation Algorithm

[Guilherme de Lima Ottoni]

I'd like to know in which technique the GCC's global register allocation
approach is based. I found no reference in the source code. It seems to
be based on graph coloring, but I want to be sure. Does anyone know?

Thanks,
Guilherme Ottoni
