Subject: [PATCH v3 03/12] rust: macros: convert `#[vtable]` macro to use `syn`
Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2026 17:07:14 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260112170919.1888584-4-gary@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260112170919.1888584-1-gary@kernel.org>
From: Gary Guo <gary@garyguo.net>
`#[vtable]` is converted to use syn. This is more robust than the
previous heuristic-based searching of defined methods and functions.
When doing so, the trait and impl are split into two code paths as the
types are distinct when parsed by `syn`.
