Description

Integration of Rust code with a C-based Linux Kernel Module

This project sets up a minimalistic Linux kernel module in C which it uses to "bootstrap" Rust code so to speak.

I also include examples of how to link multiple Rust files together while doing this and how to integrate some C kernel functions with the Rust.

Building the Module

Just run make.

NOTE: You must use a path with no spaces when building Linux kernel modules, including this one!

Requirements

• Linux Kernel Headers
• Make
• Gcc
• Cargo Nightly
  • If you only have stable, use rustup toolchain install nightly to install nightly
  • Simply installing nightly will not set it as default, don't worry
