Linux kernel lead developer for Rust, Miguel Ojeda, recently posted a patch formally concluding the "Rust experiment" within the kernel. This development signifies that the Rust programming language is now considered a permanent and successful component of the Linux kernel's codebase. Ojeda's patch confirms the community's acceptance of Rust, asserting that "Rust is here to stay" after a period of evaluation. This integration marks a significant step for the kernel, expanding its language support beyond C for critical system components.
