2022-12-04 | rust: macros: take string literals in `module!` | Gary Guo | 1 | -6/+18 | |
Instead of taking binary string literals, take string ones instead, making it easier for users to define a module, i.e. instead of calling `module!` like: module! { ... name: b"rust_minimal", ... } now it is called as: module! { ... name: "rust_minimal", ... } Module names, aliases and license strings are restricted to ASCII only. However, the author and the description allows UTF-8. For simplicity (avoid parsing), escape sequences and raw string literals are not yet handled.

2022-09-28 | rust: add `macros` crate | Miguel Ojeda | 1 | -0/+51 | |
This crate contains all the procedural macros ("proc macros") shared by all the kernel. Procedural macros allow to create syntax extensions. They run at compile-time and can consume as well as produce Rust syntax. For instance, the `module!` macro that is used by Rust modules is implemented here. It allows to easily declare the equivalent information to the `MODULE_*` macros in C modules, e.g.: module! { type: RustMinimal, name: b"rust_minimal", author: b"Rust for Linux Contributors", description: b"Rust minimal sample", license: b"GPL", } Co-developed-by: Alex Gaynor <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Alex Gaynor <[email protected]> Co-developed-by: Finn Behrens <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Finn Behrens <[email protected]> Co-developed-by: Adam Bratschi-Kaye <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Adam Bratschi-Kaye <[email protected]> Co-developed-by: Wedson Almeida Filho <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Wedson Almeida Filho <[email protected]> Co-developed-by: Sumera Priyadarsini <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Sumera Priyadarsini <[email protected]> Co-developed-by: Gary Guo <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Gary Guo <[email protected]> Co-developed-by: Matthew Bakhtiari <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Matthew Bakhtiari <[email protected]> Co-developed-by: Björn Roy Baron <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Björn Roy Baron <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Miguel Ojeda <[email protected]> |
