We could use 0 or -1 to indicate "I don't know trip count" instead of an
extra boolean.  Not sure that it matters much.

It seems a bit odd to have this decide to force-unroll.  This is an
analysis pass, not a "make decisions" pass.

Why are these two separate things?  You have two arrays both indexed by
nir_ssa_def::index and both called loop_vars and one has a pointer to the
other.  Can we just make 1 array?

Also, this seems like an unneeded level of indirection.  Just put a pointer
in loop_variable that points to the induction var struct.

I have a mild preference for the lower-case variants.  As I recall, they
are more for legacy.

Can we make this function take the actual parameters and limit
init_loop_state to being the thing we use for init_loop_def.  Passing piles
of pointers through made sense when Thomas originally wrote it but now that
we have better loop iteration macros, we can just pass arguments.

Is there a reason why this is an explicit list and not simply
"nir_op_infos[alu->op].num_inputs == 2"?

There's no good reason for this to be a void *; it just leads to extra
casting.  Also, this function could use a better name.  Maybe
cf_node_find_loop_jumps?

Jumps are always the last instruction in a block.  There's no sense in
walking all of them just to find the jump.  Use nir_block_last_instr()
instead.

Maybe add an explicit case for nir_cf_node_loop with a comment that we
don't care about inner loops.

How about "if (!exec_list_empty(&nif->else_list)) return false;"?  That
seems far simpler.

You only allow iadd and isub except that we lower away isub so you'll never
see it.  Probably best to remove the dead code.  Also...

 1) You don't handle swizzles at all
 2) You don't handle things other than 64 or 16-bit.  Those are coming
soon; they need to be supported.

Is there a reason why this can't be handled as "trip_count + 1"?  This
seems way overcomplicated.

I think it would be clearer if we combined these two functions.

Thinking a bit about analysis vs. lowering...

I wonder if it wouldn't be better to make the loop anlaysis pass be a bit
more informational and less decision making.  For instance, it could record
what all variable modes it has seen be indexed by an induction variable and
let the pass using the analysis decide whether or not to force-unroll.  For
that matter, it could just produce a hash map from induction variables to
the loop for which they are an induction variable.  You could also just
record the trip count per-loop.  That all seems a bit more like things an
analysis pass would do than just setting a force_unroll bit.

Please don't feel like you need to make any changes in this direction yet.
I'm mostly trying to open the discussion up a bit and feel out exactly how
we want things to be structured.

I think I've written you a long enough book for now.  I'll try to look at
the others as I get time.
