    [$] Rust for filesystems

    Date:
    Fri, 21 Jun 2024 14:45:52 +0000

    Description:
    At the
    2024 Linux Storage,
    Filesystem, Memory Management, and BPF Summit , Wedson Almeida Filho and
    Kent Overstreet led a combined storage and filesystem session on using Rust
    for Linux filesystems. Back in December 2023, Almeida had posted
    an RFC patch set with
    some Rust abstractions for filesystems, which resulted in some disagreement over the approach . On the
    same mid-May day as the session, he posted a second version of the RFC patches, which he wanted to discuss along with
    other Rust-related topics.
