While the 6.3 kernel has gained more support for the Rust language, itstill remains true that there is little that can be done in Rust beyond thecreation of a "hello world" module. That functionality was alreadyavailable in C, of course, with a level of safety similar to what Rust canprovide. Interest is growing, though, in merging actually useful moduleswritten in Rust; that will require some more capable infrastructure than iscurrently present.
