Proposal

Add a few -Z (perma-unstable) flags to dump a representation of the AST and THIR, akin to -Zunpretty=hir-tree for the HIR:

  • -Zunpretty=ast-tree and -Zunpretty=ast-tree,expanded for the AST
  • -Zunpretty=thir-tree for the THIR

Being able to dump those IRs is always useful when hacking on the compiler. Also, this is something we (the rustc-dev-guide WG) would like to have for rust-lang/rustc-dev-guide#1062, to be able to better teach those IRs.

Mentors or Reviewers

Implemented in rust-lang/rust#82304, looking for a reviewer

Process

The main points of the Major Change Process is as follows:

  • File an issue describing the proposal.
  • A compiler team member or contributor who is knowledgeable in the area can second by writing @rustbot second.
    • Finding a "second" suffices for internal changes. If however you are proposing a new public-facing feature, such as a -C flag, then full team check-off is required.
    • Compiler team members can initiate a check-off via @rfcbot fcp merge on either the MCP or the PR.
  • Once an MCP is seconded, the Final Comment Period begins. If no objections are raised after 10 days, the MCP is considered approved.

Add `-Z unpretty` flags for the AST

Implements rust-lang/compiler-team#408.
Builds on rust-lang#82269, but if that PR is rejected or stalls out, I can implement this without rust-lang#82269.

Add `-Z unpretty` flag for the THIR

This adds a new perma-unstable flag, `-Zunpretty=thir-tree`, that dumps the raw THIR tree for each body in the crate.

Implements the THIR part of MCP rust-lang/compiler-team#408, helps with rust-lang/rustc-dev-guide#1062.
Depends on rust-lang#82495, blocked on that. Only the two last commits are added by this PR.
