[PATCH RFC 0/3] rust: tty: introduce TTY subsystem abstractions and rttyprintk
From: SeungJong Ha via B4 Relay
Date: Mon Jan 26 2026 - 07:22:23 EST
Hello,
This RFC patch series introduces Rust abstractions for the
TTY subsystem and implements a sample driver, rttyprintk.
Currently, TTY abstractions are missing in the
Rust for Linux implementation. This series aims to fill that gap.
It consists of two main parts:
- Rust TTY abstractions
- The rttyprintk driver
rttyprintk serves as the first example of a Rust TTY driver.
I chose to port ttyprintk because its simplicity makes it and
ideal candidate for validating the new abstractions and demonstrating
their usage.
Thank you!
