 Loop Simplify Form
 ==================
 
-TBD
+The Loop Simplify Form is a canonical form that makes
+several analyses and transformations simpler and more effective.
+For a loop to be in Loop Simplify Form, it must have:
+
+* A preheader.
+* A latch which must also be the only backedge.
+* Dedicated exists. That is, no exit block for the loop
+  has a predecessor that is outside the loop. This implies
+  that all exit blocks are dominated by the loop header.
