+A rotating register file is a set of registers that are basically made
+up of FIFOs where all the values can be read again. This can be very
+useful for a number of reasons, for example, for expressing SSA over
+loops (where you are technically modifying registers every loop
+iteration), so that one is never modifying previous values and these
+could technically be read again.
+
+It would therefore be interesting to implement these rotating register
+files in RTLBlock and RTLPar ([\#3c3a]).
