Linux kernel stable tree (mirror) https://git.radix-linux.su/kernel/linux.git/atom?h=v6.6.132 2022-12-04T00:59:16+00:00 2022-12-04T00:59:16+00:00 Gary Guo gary@garyguo.net 2022-11-10T16:41:37+00:00 urn:sha1:ecaa6ddff2fd843c0236a931bcc62bf239956617 The `build_error` crate provides a function `build_error` which will panic at compile-time if executed in const context and, by default, will cause a build error if not executed at compile time and the optimizer does not optimise away the call. The `CONFIG_RUST_BUILD_ASSERT_ALLOW` kernel option allows to relax the default build failure and convert it to a runtime check. If the runtime check fails, `panic!` will be called. Its functionality will be exposed to users as a couple macros in the `kernel` crate in the following patch, thus some documentation here refers to them for simplicity.
