Subject: [PATCH v3 08/19] rust: add `macros` crate
Date:   Mon, 17 Jan 2022 06:33:38 +0100
Message-Id: <20220117053349.6804-9-ojeda@kernel.org>
In-Reply-To: <20220117053349.6804-1-ojeda@kernel.org>

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 v2",
    }

+///   - `params`: parameters for the kernel module, as described below.
+///
+/// # Supported parameter types
+///
+///   - `bool`: Corresponds to C `bool` param type.

+///   - `usize`: No equivalent C param type.
+///   - `str`: Corresponds to C `charp` param type. Reading returns a byte slice.
+///   - `ArrayParam<T,N>`: Corresponds to C parameters created using `module_param_array`. An array
+///     of `T`'s of length at **most** `N`.
+///
+/// `invbool` is unsupported: it was only ever used in a few modules.
+/// Consider using a `bool` and inverting the logic instead.
