Phoronix: Rust Bindings Are Being Worked On For Linux CPUFreq Drivers

One of the latest areas being worked on for enabling Rust programming language use within the Linux kernel is for CPU frequency "CPUFreq" scaling drivers...

nobody asked for this

people filtered by C will invent a whole new language just so they don't have to run SonarQube, Bullseye, valgrind and gdb

Turns out bindings indeed are more complex to engineer than shoving them through bindgen right?

Rust has good merits, but this is not the correct way to leverage it. This is just clutter.

Grim.

Nobody asked for what exactly? Please be more specific.

Sonarqube, bulleyes and valgrind can not provide the exact same guarantees that the Rust compiler provides out of the box. Also they are optional tools that not everyone uses. Still probably they can be used with Rust too. Valgrind surely, not fully sure if the others are compatible with Rust.

GDB is a debugger and can be used with Rust programs, same that with other languages. Not sure why you mentioned it.

All this mental gymnastics just to not follow MISRA... grim
