As the Kernel Turns: Rust in Linux saga reaches the “Linus in all-caps” phase

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-06-18 22:55:11

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.

Right now, like USB-C and Android phones, the Combined Charging System (CCS, Type 1) plug is on a greater variety of cars. Meanwhile, Tesla’s plug was long compared to Apple and Lightning.

The $600 OnePlus 13R and the $650 Samsung Galaxy S24 FE each have a similar mission: Provide a phone that includes all the essential features of more-expensive phones by scaling back on certain hardware and software features.
