Determining when the coroutine-closure must *lend* its upvars is implemented in the `should_reborrow_from_env_of_parent_coroutine_closure` helper function[^u1]. Specifically, this needs to happen in two places:
1. Are we borrowing data owned by the parent closure? We can determine if that is the case by checking if the parent capture is by-move, EXCEPT if we apply a deref projection, which means we're reborrowing a reference that we captured by-move.
```rust
let x = &1i32; // Let's call this lifetime `'1`.
let c = async move || {
println!("{:?}", *x);
// Even though the inner coroutine borrows by ref, we're only capturing `*x`,
// not `x`, so the inner closure is allowed to reborrow the data for `'1`.
};
```
2. If a coroutine is mutably borrowing from a parent capture, then that mutable borrow cannot live for longer than either the parent *or* the borrow that we have on the original upvar. Therefore we always need to borrow the child capture with the lifetime of the parent coroutine-closure's env.
```rust
let mut x = 1i32;
let c = async || {
x = 1;
// The parent borrows `x` for some `&'1 mut i32`.
// However, when we call `c()`, we implicitly autoref for the signature of
// `AsyncFnMut::async_call_mut`. Let's call that lifetime `'call`. Since
// the maximum that `&'call mut &'1 mut i32` can be reborrowed is `&'call mut i32`,
// the inner coroutine should capture w/ the lifetime of the coroutine-closure.
};
```
If either of these cases apply, then we should capture the borrow with the lifetime of the parent coroutine-closure's env. Luckily, if this function is not correct, then the program is not unsound, since we still borrowck and validate the choices made from this function -- the only side-effect is that the user may receive unnecessary borrowck errors.
### Instance resolution
If a coroutine-closure has a closure-kind of `FnOnce`, then its `AsyncFnOnce::call_once` and `FnOnce::call_once` implementations resolve to the coroutine-closure's body[^res1], and the `Future::poll` of the coroutine that gets returned resolves to the body of the child closure.
If a coroutine-closure has a closure-kind of `FnMut`/`Fn`, then the same applies to `AsyncFn` and the corresponding `Future` implementation of the coroutine that gets returned.[^res1] However, we use a MIR shim to generate the implementation of `AsyncFnOnce::call_once`/`FnOnce::call_once`[^res2], and `Fn::call`/`FnMut::call_mut` instances if they exist[^res3].
This is represented by the `ConstructCoroutineInClosureShim`[^i1]. The `receiver_by_ref` bool will be true if this is the instance of `Fn::call`/`FnMut::call_mut`.[^i2] The coroutine that all of these instances returns corresponds to the by-move body we will have synthesized by this point.[^i3]
### Borrow-checking
It turns out that borrow-checking async closures is pretty straightforward. After adding a new `DefiningTy::CoroutineClosure`[^bck1] variant, and teaching borrowck how to generate the signature of the coroutine-closure[^bck2], borrowck proceeds totally fine.
One thing to note is that we don't borrow-check the synthetic body we make for by-move coroutines, since by construction (and the validity of the by-ref coroutine body it was derived from) it must be valid.
