Hi Richard,
Thanks for your comments! It's a good idea to use param due to the
flexibility. And yes, it sounds good to have more targets to try and
make it better. But I have a bit concern on turning it on by default.
Since it replies on unroll factor estimation, as part 1/4 shows, it
calls targetm.loop_unroll_adjust if target supports, which used to
work on RTL level. To avoid possible ICE, I'm intended to turn it
off for those targets (s390 & i386) with that hook, since without good
understanding on those targets, it's hard for me to extend them with
gimple level support. Does it make sense?
The updated patch has been attached.
BR,
Kewen

+@item iv-consider-reg-offset-for-unroll
+When RTL unrolling performs on a loop, the duplicated loop iterations introduce
+appropriate induction variable step update expressions. But if an induction
+variable is derived from address object, it is profitable to fill its required
+offset updates into appropriate memory access expressions if target memory
+accessing supports the register offset mode and the resulted offset is in the
+valid range. The induction variable optimizations consider this information
+for better unrolling code. It requires unroll factor estimation in middle-end.
