2016-08-25 update: use libsyntax::parse::new_parser_from_source_str to avoid setting module path manually. new_parser_from_source_str will only locate modules at CWD, which is unexpected.
As pointed out by @Francis, the real path of a module file may be something like foo/mod.rs,and I discovered a function named new_parser_from_source_str, which is able to create a new parser from a source string, in libsyntax::parse, so I decided to ask the compiler to handle this case for me so I have to handle this case manually. The updated code:
fn choose(cx: &mut ExtCtxt, sp: Span, args: &[TokenTree]) -> Box<MacResult + 'static> {
let mut test_mods = SmallVector::zero();
let cfg_str = intern("cfg");
let ftre_str = intern("feature");
for arg in args {
let mut attrs = vec![];
let mod_name = match arg {
&TokenTree::Token(_, token::Ident(s)) => s.to_string(),
_ => {
return DummyResult::any(sp);
}
};
attrs.push(cx.attribute(sp,
cx.meta_list(sp,
// simply increase the reference counter
cfg_str.clone(),
vec![cx.meta_name_value(sp,
ftre_str.clone(),
ast::LitKind::Str(intern(mod_name.trim_left_matches("test_")), ast::StrStyle::Cooked))])));
let mut mod_path = PathBuf::from(&cx.codemap().span_to_filename(sp));
let dir = mod_path.parent().expect("no parent directory").to_owned();
let default_path = dir.join(format!("{}.rs", mod_name.as_str()));
let secondary_path = dir.join(format!("{}/mod.rs", mod_name.as_str()));
match (default_path.exists(), secondary_path.exists()) {
(false, false) => {
cx.span_err(sp, &format!("file not found for module `{}`", mod_name.as_str()));
return DummyResult::any(sp);
}
(true, true) => {
cx.span_err(sp, &format!("file for module `{}` found at both {} and {}", mod_name.as_str(), default_path.display(), secondary_path.display()));
return DummyResult::any(sp);
}
(true, false) => mod_path = default_path,
(false, true) => mod_path = secondary_path,
}
test_mods.push(P(ast::Item {
ident: cx.ident_of(mod_name.as_str()),
attrs: attrs,
id: ast::DUMMY_NODE_ID,
node: ast::ItemKind::Mod(
ast::Mod {
inner: sp,
items: expand_include(cx, sp, &mod_path),
}
),
vis: ast::Visibility::Inherited,
span: sp,
}))
}
MacEager::items(test_mods)
}
Finally I found out the solution! \o/
The process Rust handles module file is like include!. As a result, I looked at the implementation of the macro include!, which can be found here, and rewrote it to suit my needs:
use ::std::path::Path;
use ::std::path::PathBuf;
use syntax::parse::{self, token};
use syntax::errors::FatalError;
macro_rules! panictry {
($e:expr) => ({
match $e {
Ok(e) => e,
Err(mut e) => {
e.emit();
panic!(FatalError);
}
}
})
}
pub fn expand_include<'cx>(cx: &'cx mut ExtCtxt, sp: Span, file: &Path) -> Vec<P<ast::Item>> {
let mut p = parse::new_sub_parser_from_file(cx.parse_sess(), cx.cfg(), file, true, None, sp);
let mut ret = vec![];
while p.token != token::Eof {
match panictry!(p.parse_item()) {
Some(item) => ret.push(item),
None => {
panic!(p.diagnostic().span_fatal(p.span,
&format!("expected item, found `{}`", p.this_token_to_string())))
}
}
}
ret
}
To get items from the module file, we must find out the real module path:
let mut mod_path = PathBuf::from(&cx.codemap().span_to_filename(sp));
mod_path.set_file_name(mod_name.as_str());
mod_path.set_extension("rs");
Then we can construct our module node like this:
P(ast::Item {
ident: cx.ident_of(mod_name.as_str()),
attrs: attrs,
id: ast::DUMMY_NODE_ID,
node: ast::ItemKind::Mod(ast::Mod {
inner: sp,
items: expand_include(cx, sp, &mod_path),
}),
vis: ast::Visibility::Inherited,
span: sp,
})
In summary, the plugin should be rewritten as the following:

use syntax::errors::FatalError;
use syntax::ext::build::AstBuilder;
use rustc_plugin::Registry;
use syntax::util::small_vector::SmallVector;
use ::std::path::Path;
use ::std::path::PathBuf;
macro_rules! panictry {
($e:expr) => ({
match $e {
Ok(e) => e,
Err(mut e) => {
e.emit();
panic!(FatalError);
}
}
})
}
pub fn expand_include<'cx>(cx: &'cx mut ExtCtxt, sp: Span, file: &Path) -> Vec<P<ast::Item>> {

let mut ret = vec![];
while p.token != token::Eof {
match panictry!(p.parse_item()) {
Some(item) => ret.push(item),
None => {
panic!(p.diagnostic().span_fatal(p.span,
&format!("expected item, found `{}`", p.this_token_to_string())))
}
}
}
ret
}
fn intern(s: &str) -> token::InternedString {
token::intern_and_get_ident(s)

attrs.push(cx.attribute(sp,

cfg_str.clone(),
