Rust in illumos

With the recent rust in Linux events in the last couple of days, It’s a good time to write up Rust in illumos. Both to spread the word a bit and also to set expectations for both sides (Rust and illumos/OpenIndiana devs) what is currently possible and what work would need to be invested to make things smooth.

Both to spread the word a bit and also to set expectations for both sides (Rust and illumos/OpenIndiana devs) what is currently possible and what work would need to be invested to make things smooth. Looking at the things people like Asahi Lina want to address inside the Linux Kernel with the Rust bindings and how she describes the issues with Locking I get the feeling something with DRM is not consistent. The Debian approach of putting everything into one system and only having one version of each dependency is not feasible for a huge international community of people that develop together but never meet.
