A Lot Of Rust Code Lining Up For The Linux 6.18 Kernel
While the Linux 6.18 kernel merge window is just getting formally started following yesterday's Linux 6.17 release, one thing is already quite clear: there is a a lot of new Rust programming language code set to head into Linux 6.18.
A number of early pull requests were submitted in advance of the Linux 6.18 merge window formally opening, including several specifically enhancing the kernel's Rust programming language opportunities. New Rust code there is for DebugFS support for simple read/write files and custom callbacks, an io::poll module, support for threaded and non-threaded device IRQs, a number of new PCI additions, sysfs integration enhancements, and various other Rust driver changes. Plus there is more Rust code expected from the DRM subsystem and other pull requests to be submitted over the next two weeks.
