Clone this repo (to folder we will call $ROOT) on a FreeBSD 12 machine
Install rustup (https://www.rust-lang.org/en-US/install.html)
Set toolchain
1. rustup toolchain link rustkpi $ROOT/rust/toolchains/x86_64-unknown-freebsd-1.25-nightly
2. cd $ROOT
3. rustup override set rustkpi
Build RustKPI
1. cd $ROOT/rust/kmod-rustkpi
2. make
Build Hello World module
1. cd $ROOT/rust/kmod-helloworld
2. make
Test
1. cd $ROOT/rust/
2. sudo kldload kmod-rustkpi/rustkpi.ko
3. sudo kldload kmod-helloworld/rustkpi-hello.ko
4. dmesg

For the e1000 driver in kmod-e1000 the following devices are supported

bhyve with e1000 nic emulation
I218 (found in Intel Broadwell laptops)
I219-LM (found in Intel Skylake laptops)

kmod-e1000 is built the same way as described above.
