Rust, a modern and notably more memory-safe language than C, once seemed like it was on a steady, calm, and gradual approach into the Linux kernel.
In 2021, Linux kernel leaders, like founder and leader Linus Torvalds himself, were impressed with the language but had a “wait and see” approach. Rust for Linux gained supporters and momentum, and in October 2022, Torvalds approved a pull request adding support for Rust code in the kernel.
By late 2024, however, Rust enthusiasts were frustrated with stalls and blocks on their efforts, with the Rust for Linux lead quitting over “nontechnical nonsense.” Torvalds said at the time that he understood it was slow, but that “old-time kernel developers are used to C” and “not exactly excited about having to learn a new language.” Still, this could be considered a normal amount of open source debate.
