Rust Goes Mainstream in the Linux Kernel: https://thenewstack.io/rust-goes-mainstream-in-the-linux-kernel/ via @TheNewStack & @sjvn

Who'd thought it back in 2020? #Rust is no longer experimental. It's now as acceptable as C in the #Linux kernel.

Linux kernel developers have officially approved Rust as a full programming language alongside C and assembler, ending its experimental phase and marking a shift toward safer, more modern code. 🦀

Key subsystems still need bindings, but work is progressing, including a Rust-based Nvidia graphics driver. 🛠️

The Linux kernel's Rust support has been officially approved, marking the end of its experimental phase and paving the way for broader memory-safe adoption. 🚀🐧💻 A game-changer for kernel stability!

If you're still relying on #MinIO, you're certainly aware that after their #OpenSource bait-and-switch, it is now a growing liability and technical debt in your infra.

#Ceph (a rock solid choice!) seems daunting & complex for your use case?

It's what I run in my own labs.

»Linux-Kernel — Rust-Support offiziell abgesegnet:
Rust wird Assembler und C bei der Programmierung des Linux-Kernels ebenbürtig – zumindest offiziell, denn praktisch gibt es noch viel zu tun.«

Ich pers. sehe das als sehr positiev, da mMn weniger Fehler im Linux Kernel aufkommen können. Klar liegt dies am Coden doch Rust vermindert overflow & Co. und doch/deshalb gibt es viel zu tun.

Linux-Kernel: Rust-Support offiziell abgesegnet

Nun ist #rust offiziell im Kernel angekommen. Ich bin gespannt, wie das Zusammenspiel funktioniert.

The end of the kernel Rust experiment

#linux #kernel

- switching between #Zig versions, I liked it more than the dedicated anyzig
- #Python venv activation – it's silly but feels so good, and collaborates with uv
- ensuring I have the right language server and formatter for a project, be it #Lua, #TypeScript, and trying out various options for Python
- setting LANG="C.UTF-8" only in the specific project folder because #Ansible refused to work with Polish...

The final boss was getting a really comfortable Tree-sitter setup: get the #Rust CLI, write grammar in #JavaScript, re-generate and run tests on source change as a mise Task. And then I only cloned the repo on another machine and was ready to go!

This post was written as a more cultured outlet for my excitement instead of aggresively committing mise.toml into every repository I touch

It’s incredibly fast, lightweight, and easy to run and perfect for those times when you just want to serve files without the overhead of a full web server like Apache.
