[PATCH v4 4/6] gpu: nova-core: emit Rust metadata for nova-drm
From: Alexandre Courbot
Date: Fri Jun 05 2026 - 04:47:56 EST
Emit nova-core's crate metadata (libnova_core.rmeta) so that nova-drm
can import nova-core's types and functions at compile time.
This is intended to be a workaround until the build system supports Rust
cross-crate dependencies natively.
