// SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 //! Build-time error. //! //! This crate provides a [const function][const-functions] `build_error`, which will panic in //! compile-time if executed in [const context][const-context], and will cause a build error //! if not executed at compile time and the optimizer does not optimise away the call. //! //! It is used by `build_assert!` in the kernel crate, allowing checking of //! conditions that could be checked statically, but could not be enforced in //! Rust yet (e.g. perform some checks in [const functions][const-functions], but those //! functions could still be called in the runtime). //! //!
