2022-09-28rust: add `macros` crateMiguel Ojeda
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 <alex.gaynor@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Alex Gaynor <alex.gaynor@gmail.com> Co-developed-by: Finn Behrens <me@kloenk.de> Signed-off-by: Finn Behrens <me@kloenk.de> Co-developed-by: Adam Bratschi-Kaye <ark.email@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Adam Bratschi-Kaye <ark.email@gmail.com> Co-developed-by: Wedson Almeida Filho <wedsonaf@google.com> Signed-off-by: Wedson Almeida Filho <wedsonaf@google.com> Co-developed-by: Sumera Priyadarsini <sylphrenadin@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Sumera Priyadarsini <sylphrenadin@gmail.com> Co-developed-by: Gary Guo <gary@garyguo.net> Signed-off-by: Gary Guo <gary@garyguo.net> Co-developed-by: Matthew Bakhtiari <dev@mtbk.me> Signed-off-by: Matthew Bakhtiari <dev@mtbk.me> Co-developed-by: Björn Roy Baron <bjorn3_gh@protonmail.com> Signed-off-by: Björn Roy Baron <bjorn3_gh@protonmail.com> Signed-off-by: Miguel Ojeda <ojeda@kernel.org>
