Added "copy" to Debug fmt for copy operands In MIR's debug mode (--emit mir) the printing for Operands is slightly inconsistent. The RValues - values on the right side of an Assign - are usually printed with their Operand when they are Places. Example: _2 = move _3 But for arguments, the operand is omitted. _2 = _1 I propose a change be made, to display the place with the operand. _2 = copy _1 Move and copy have different semantics, meaning this difference is important and helpful to the user. It also adds consistency to the pretty printing. -- EDIT -- Consider this example Rust program and its MIR output with the **updated pretty printer.** This was generated with the arguments --emit mir --crate-type lib -Zmir-opt-level=0 (Otherwise, it's optimised away since it's a junk program). ```rust fn main(foo: i32) { let v = 10; if v == 20 { foo; } else { v; } } ``` ```MIR // WARNING: This output format is intended for human consumers only // and is subject to change without notice. Knock yourself out. fn main(_1: i32) -> () { debug foo => _1; let mut _0: (); let _2: i32; let mut _3: bool; let mut _4: i32; let _5: i32; let _6: i32; scope 1 { debug v => _2; } bb0: { StorageLive(_2); _2 = const 10_i32; StorageLive(_3); StorageLive(_4); _4 = copy _2; _3 = Eq(move _4, const 20_i32); switchInt(move _3) -> [0: bb2, otherwise: bb1]; } bb1: { StorageDead(_4); StorageLive(_5); _5 = copy _1; StorageDead(_5); _0 = const (); goto -> bb3; } bb2: { StorageDead(_4); StorageLive(_6); _6 = copy _2; StorageDead(_6); _0 = const (); goto -> bb3; } bb3: { StorageDead(_3); StorageDead(_2); return; } } ``` In this example program, we can see that when we move a place, it is preceded by "move". e.g. ``` _3 = Eq(move _4, const 20_i32);```. However, when we copy a place such as ```_5 = _1;```, it is not preceded by the operand in the original printout. I propose to change the print to include the copy ```_5 = copy _1``` as in this example. Regarding the arguments part. When I originally submitted this PR, I was under the impression this only affected the print for arguments to a function, but actually, it affects anything that uses a copy. This is preferable anyway with regard to consistency. The PR is about making ```copy``` explicit. |
