[PATCH v6 RESEND 5/7] rust: io: factor out MMIO read/write macros
Posted by Zhi Wang 3 months ago
Refactor the existing MMIO accessors to use common call macros
instead of inlining the bindings calls in each `define_{read,write}!`
expansion.

This factoring separates the common offset/bounds checks from the
low-level call pattern, making it easier to add additional I/O accessor
families.

No functional change intended.

I understand the intent from the commit message, but this is starting to
look like an intricate maze of macro expansion and it might not be as
easy for first-time readers - could you add an explanatory doccomment
for these?

To convey the fact that `$c_fn` is passed to `$call_macro`, how about
changing the syntax to something like 

  `define_read(infallible, $vis $name $call_macro($c_fn) -> $type_name`

?

Then the macros will look like:

define_read!(infallible, pub read32 call_mmio_read!(ioread32) -> u32);
define_write!(infallible, pub write32 call_mmio_write!(iowrite32) ->
u32);

The readability is indeed better - I’ll take that, thanks. :)
