+    This operation represents a collapsed rectangular loop nest. For each
+    rectangular loop of the nest represented by an instance of this operation,
+    lower and upper bounds, as well as a step variable, must be defined.
+
+    The lower and upper bounds specify a half-open range: the range includes the
+    lower bound but does not include the upper bound. If the `inclusive`
+    attribute is specified then the upper bound is also included.
+
+    The body region can contain any number of blocks. The region is terminated
+    by "omp.yield" instruction without operands. The induction variables,
+    represented as entry block arguments to the loop nest operation's single
+    region, match the types of the `lowerBound`, `upperBound` and `step`
+    arguments.
+
+    ```mlir
+    omp.loopnest (%i1, %i2) : i32 = (%c0, %c0) to (%c10, %c10) step (%c1, %c1) {
+      %a = load %arrA[%i1, %i2] : memref<?x?xf32>
+      %b = load %arrB[%i1, %i2] : memref<?x?xf32>
+      %sum = arith.addf %a, %b : f32
+      store %sum, %arrC[%i1, %i2] : memref<?x?xf32>
+      omp.yield
+    }
+    ```
+
+    This is a temporary simplified definition of a loop based on existing OpenMP
+    loop operations intended to serve as a stopgap solution until the long-term
+    representation of canonical loops is defined. Specifically, this approach is
+    not intended to help with the addition of support for loop transformations.
