Update some outdated descriptions of coverage instrumentation #1809
Conversation
I'm not familiar with that, could you point to a relevant PR (or ping a better reviewer)? |
This is mainly based on my own recent work in rust-lang/rust#116046. It used to be that mappings between coverage counters and source code regions were stored directly in special coverage statements that the coverage instrumentor would inject into MIR. After that change, those mappings are now stored in a The part about injecting counters into MIR has been obsoleted by follow-up work in rust-lang/rust#116917. What used to be a fairly intricate region of code for injecting various things into MIR has been replaced by two fairly simple loops. |
cc @Swatinem in case you want to look over this as well. |

The three inject
