Hi,

Compiling this code:

#[spirv(compute(threads(8, 8)))]
pub fn main(#[spirv(descriptor_set = 0, binding = 0)] out: TexRgba32f) {
    let mut value = vec3(0.1, 0.2, 0.3);
    let mut i = 0;

    loop {
        if i >= 32 {
            break;
        }

        i += 1;
    }

    unsafe {
        out.write(uvec2(0, 0), value.extend(1.0));
    }
}

... will work, but adding a seemingly no-op value = value into that loop:

loop {
    value = value;

    if i >= 32 {
        break;
    }

    i += 1;
}

... will panic the compiler, saying:

error: malformed SPIR-V (in OpCompositeExtract: undefined ID %4547)

Research direction

Start by compiling the Rust reproducer with and without the no-op value = value inside the loop, then inspect the generated SPIR-V and the OpCompositeExtract diagnostic. Done means both versions compile without a malformed-SPIR-V error and produce valid output.
