5//! Helper functions and macros.

7//! These are various utility functions and macros that are useful throughout

10//! The macros are exported through the top level of the `kernel` crate.

12/// Create an object with the given capability.

20///
21/// This helper macro cannot be called from `#![forbid(unsafe_code)]` crates,
22/// and is used by trusted code to generate a capability that it can either use
23/// or pass to another module.

36/// Useful for constructing variable sized arrays in other macros.
