Good answers are already here, I just takes the lasts bits...

There is a list of libraries provided with camlp4:

camlp4{o,of,orf,r,rf}.cma are toplevel libs there are only made to be
loaded in the ocaml toplevel

camlp4lib.cma contains the Camlp4 module which holds the camlp4 kernel.

camlp4fullilb.cma contains modules of camlp4lib.cma plus all parsers
and filters.
