From C to Rust: Bringing Rust Abstractions to Embedded Linux

Explore the journey of bringing Rust abstractions to embedded Linux in this 39-minute conference talk. Delve into the challenges and opportunities of integrating Rust into Linux kernel development, focusing on device drivers for embedded systems. Learn how Fabien Parent, a C kernel developer, transitioned to Rust and worked on creating abstractions for common kernel frameworks. Gain insights into the process of enhancing Rust support beyond its initial minimal integration in Linux v6.0, and understand the potential impact on future embedded Linux development practices.
