Explore a 23-minute conference talk from FOSDEM 2018 that delves into the integration of Rust, a modern systems programming language, with L4Re, a microkernel-based operating system. Learn about the unique combination of Rust's compiler-enforced memory-safety guarantees and safe concurrency features with L4Re's isolation and virtualization capabilities for enhanced reliability and security. Discover the challenges faced in porting Rust to L4Re and integrating the Rustc compiler into a different build system. Gain insights into potential future work applying Rust's robust type system to L4Re IPC, showcasing the synergy between safe language design and secure microkernel architecture.
