Detailed Description

A reference to a site in a Halide statement at the top of the body of a particular for loop.

Evaluating a region of a halide function is done by generating a loop nest that spans its dimensions. We schedule the inputs to that function by recursively injecting realizations for them at particular sites in this loop nest. A LoopLevel identifies such a site. The site can either be a loop nest within all stages of a function or it can refer to a loop nest within a particular function's stage (initial definition or updates).

Note that a LoopLevel is essentially a pointer to an underlying value; all copies of a LoopLevel refer to the same site, so mutating one copy (via the set() method) will effectively mutate all copies:

Func f;
Var x;
LoopLevel a(f, x);
// Both a and b refer to LoopLevel(f, x)
LoopLevel b = a;
// Now both a and b refer to LoopLevel::root()
a.set(LoopLevel::root());

This is quite useful when splitting Halide code into utility libraries, as it allows a library to schedule code according to a caller's specifications, even if the caller hasn't fully defined its pipeline yet:

Func demosaic(Func input,
             LoopLevel intermed_compute_at,
             LoopLevel intermed_store_at,
             LoopLevel output_compute_at) {
   Func intermed = ...;
   Func output = ...;
   intermed.compute_at(intermed_compute_at).store_at(intermed_store_at);
   output.compute_at(output_compute_at);
   return output;
}
 
void process() {
    // Note that these LoopLevels are all undefined when we pass them to demosaic()
    LoopLevel intermed_compute_at, intermed_store_at, output_compute_at;
    Func input = ...;
    Func demosaiced = demosaic(input, intermed_compute_at, intermed_store_at, output_compute_at);
    Func output = ...;
 
    // We need to ensure all LoopLevels have a well-defined value prior to lowering:
    intermed_compute_at.set(LoopLevel(output, y));
    intermed_store_at.set(LoopLevel(output, y));
    output_compute_at.set(LoopLevel(output, x));
}
