[PATCH] rust: Use awk instead of recent xargs
Posted by Matthew Maurer 2 years, 2 months ago
`awk` is already required by the kernel build, and the `xargs` feature
used in current Rust detection is not present in all `xargs` (notably,
toybox based xargs, used in the Android kernel build).

Perhaps remove the cut as well and use $$3 instead of $$0 ?
Maybe integrate the grep as well.

Or keep the grep and use a shell loop?
	grep -E ' (T|R|D) ' | while read val flag symbol; do \
		echo "EXPORT_SYMBOL_RUST_GPL($symbol);"; done

(The grep is typically much faster than a shell conditional.)

Bikeshed:

no grep just a single awk with whatever the appropriate syntax is like

awk '{ if ($$2 ~ /^[TRD]$/) { printf "EXPORT_SYMBOL_RUST(%s);\n", $$3 } }'
