Ojeda: Memory Safety for the World’s Largest Software Project
Miguel Ojeda has posted an update on the Rust-for-Linux project.
This second year since the RFC we are looking forward to several milestones which hopefully we will achieve:
- More users or use cases inside the kernel, including example drivers – this is pretty important to get merged into the kernel.
- Splitting the kernel crate and managing dependencies to allow better development.
- Extending the current integration of the kernel documentation, testing and other tools.
- Getting more subsystem maintainers, companies and researchers involved.
- Seeing most of the remaining Rust features stabilized.
- Possibly being able to start compiling the Rust code in the kernel with GCC.
- And, of course, getting merged into the mainline kernel, which should make everything else easier!
