Rust in the 6.2 kernel
I think bringing Rust into Linux was a really bad idea. IMO Rust has yet to prove it isn’t another overly complicated C++ waiting to make projects almost incomprehensible to understand. It does not provide the same easy ramp up that C provided when working on most of the system software stack on Linux. There’s also still too few standalone projects using it to consider it a proper candidate for folding into such a large project forever.I am surprised Linus agreed to this given that he doesn’t like C++ and usually errs on the side of clear over clever, and we have yet to see tangible benefits of using Rust.
