[$] A memory model for Rust code in the kernel

mercredi 3 avril 2024, 16:36 , par LWN.net
The Rust programming language differs from C in many ways; those
differences tend to be what users admire in the language. But those
differences can also lead to an impedance mismatch when Rust code is
integrated into a C-dominated system, and it can be even worse in the
kernel, which is not a typical C program. Memory models are a case in
point. A programming language's view of memory is sufficiently fundamental
and arcane that many developers never have to learn much about it. It is
hard to maintain that sort of blissful ignorance while working in the
kernel, though, so a recent discussion of how to choose a memory model for
kernel code in Rust is of interest.
