In this case it happens to be just adding some metadata, but for others such as `unrollLoopPartial` it does not make sense to have the unroll factor set by a different method. It would also allow better consistency checks if passed as a parameter.
Sure.
================
Comment at: clang/lib/CodeGen/CGStmtOpenMP.cpp:2596
// Check for unsupported clauses
- if (!S.clauses().empty()) {
- // Currently no clause is supported
- return false;
+ for (OMPClause *C : S.clauses()) {
+ // Currently only simdlen clause is supported

However it seems like it was suggested to try either splitting the function or merging it with slight preference for merging (I didn't understand how that would help constructs like `for simd` because I haven't worked with `for simd` much and will take others' word for it).

A third alternative would be to have both functions, one specialized for SIMD and one for ExecutableConstruct, where the latter might handle combined constructs like `for simd` etc. Would that arrangement work?

> I'd expect the check the most common to be the (non-)existence of a clause such as `simdlen`. Once support for it is added, it should be supported for all combined/composite constructs. Code Duplication not necessary. We do not need to check whether `OMPExecutableDirective` is is a simd construct because Sema will reject `simdlen` on any other construct anyway.

> Therefore is still favor taking a `OMPExecutableDirective` argument. OpenMPIRBuilder does not support combined/composite construct yet, but whoever adds it has to face the immense problem of refactoring all the `isSupportedByOpenMPIRBuilder` implementations to have to rewrite that function for all combined/composite constructs. Better consider the possibility of combined/composite constructs from the beginning.
Unsure why this has to go into another round of comments:
This is, as I noted, a mood discussion. If this passes all tests there is no good reason to make it `OMPExecutableDirective` right now. As we add anything that does not work with this API we need to make a choice and include changes anyway. Arguing the type of the argument right now, = the ~15 letter difference, is making anything harder in the future, is arguably not true. As always, designing something without coverage and use case at hand is discouraged, especially if the design does not exclude an extension.
