Writing Linux Kernel Modules in Rust - Mentorship Session

Linux Foundation via YouTube

Overview

Dive into a hands-on mentorship session on writing Linux kernel modules using Rust. Follow along as Software Engineer Wedson Almeida Filho from Google guides you through the process, starting from an empty file and progressively building functionality similar to the scull driver from the Linux Device Drivers book. Witness the module's behavior at each step through a test VM and gain insights into how Rust code compares to C, highlighting improvements in productivity and security. Prepare for the webinar by downloading the provided qemu virtual machine image to replicate the steps on your own workstation. No prior Rust knowledge is required for this 1 hour 31 minute session, making it accessible to developers of all levels interested in kernel module development.
