This helps in easily initializing blocks of code (e.g. static calls and
keys).
UNROLL(N, MACRO, __VA_ARGS__) calls MACRO N times with the first
argument as the index of the iteration. This allows string pasting to
create unique tokens for variable names, function calls etc.
As an example:
#include <linux/unroll.h>
#define MACRO(N, a, b) \
int add_##N(int a, int b) \
{ \
return a + b + N; \
}
UNROLL(2, MACRO, x, y)
expands to:
int add_0(int x, int y)
{
return x + y + 0;
}
int add_1(int x, int y)
{
return x + y + 1;
}
