+//
+// Provides support for the Windows "Secure Hot-Patching" feature.
+//
+// Windows contains technology, called "Secure Hot-Patching" (SHP), for 
securely
+// applying hot-patches to a running system. Hot-patches may be applied to the
+// kernel, kernel-mode components, device drivers, user-mode system services,
+// etc.
+//
+// SHP relies on integration between many tools, including compiler, linker,
+// hot-patch generation tools, and the Windows kernel. This file implements 
that
+// part of the workflow needed in compilers / code generators.
+//
+// SHP is not intended for productivity scenarios such as Edit-and-Continue or
+// interactive development. SHP is intended to minimize downtime during
+// installation of Windows OS patches.
+//
+// In order to work with SHP, LLVM must do all of the following:
+//
+// * On some architectures (X86, AMD64), the function prolog must begin with
+//   hot-patchable instructions. This is handled by the MSVC `/hotpatch` option
+//   and the equivalent `-fms-hotpatch` function. This is necessary because we
+//   generally cannot anticipate which functions will need to be patched in the
+//   future. This option ensures that a function can be hot-patched in the
+//   future, but does not actually generate any hot-patch for it.
+//
+// * For a selected set of functions that are being hot-patched (which are
+//   identified using command-line options), LLVM must generate the
+//   `S_HOTPATCHFUNC` CodeView record (symbol). This record indicates that a
+//   function was compiled with hot-patching enabled.
+//
+//   This implementation uses the `MarkedForWindowsHotPatching` attribute to
+//   annotate those functions that were marked for hot-patching by command-line
+//   parameters. The attribute may be specified by a language front-end by
+//   setting an attribute when a function is created in LLVM IR, or it may be
+//   set by passing LLVM arguments.
+//
+// * For those functions that are hot-patched, LLVM must rewrite references to
+//   global variables so that they are indirected through a `__ref_*` pointer
+//   variable.  For each global variable, that is accessed by a hot-patched
+//   function, e.g. `FOO`, a `__ref_FOO` global pointer variable is created and
+//   all references to the original `FOO` are rewritten as dereferences of the
+//   `__ref_FOO` pointer.
+//
+//   Some globals do not need `__ref_*` indirection. The pointer indirection
+//   behavior can be disabled for these globals by marking them with the
+//   `AllowDirectAccessInHotPatchFunction`.

nit: Do not use `llvm::` qualifiers in `llvm/`.
