1、第三屆中國Rust開發者大會Building Linux Distribution from Scratch with RustSpeaker:Jia XiaoyuCONTENTSWhy choose rust?Using Rust and LFS build linux distroO2What rkos brings us?Why do we choose Rust?Why do we choose Rust?PhoTto/image/chartWhy do we want to use Rust to build most of the things in the Operating s

2、ystem？1.If you have a very large(millions of lines of code)codebase,written in a memory-unsafe programming language(such as C or C+),you can expect at least 65%of your security vulnerabilities to be caused by memory unsafety.2.Security issues can happen not only in the kernel,but also in the whole s

3、ystem,which includes the kernel and the system software.Why do we choose rust?The number of vulnerabilities by type in the GNU since 1999(data from:CVE Details)What rust-related things have happened in the kernel since the release of kernel 6.1?Linux 6.1:Officially Adds Support for Rust in the Kerne
