Description
@JakobDegen has very kindly written up a summary of how dataflow works: https://hackmd.io/@2S4Crel_Q9OwC_vamlwXmw/ryqfn_vZn
Unlike the existing chapter (https://rustc-dev-guide.rust-lang.org/mir/dataflow.html#dataflow-analysis), this is a conceptual background, not a guide to how to write a dataflow pass. Both documents are useful and it would be nice to combine them somehow.
cc @rust-lang/wg-mir-opt @camelid, this might be a fun project.
