Rust for Linux redux
For me, the issues with Rust are:<p>- It is not fun but frustrating to work in Rust, and contrary to C, you are limited by the language/compiler on what you can do.<p>- building/compiling the kernel is not trivial, and you will add a new huge dependency that you have to deal with to build the kernel for whatever target.
Let's suppose you want to build for MIPS, then you need to have Rust supporting MIPS.<p>As an exemple, there is a common package in python that decided to start having their module in Rust instead of C. Now a lot of users of the module are pissed off, with good reason, because you can't build/install the module anymore in a little bit older or non conventional distributions.
