[$] Resistance to Rust abstractions for DMA mapping
jeudi 30 janvier 2025, 20:42 , par LWN.net
While the path toward the ability to write device drivers in Rust has been
anything but smooth, steady progress has been made and that goal is close to being achieved — for some types of drivers at least. Device drivers need to be able to set up memory areas for direct memory access (DMA) transfers, though; that means Rust drivers will need a set of abstractions to interface with the kernel's DMA-mapping subsystem. Those abstractions have run into resistance that has the potential to block progress on the Rust-for-Linux project as a whole.
