Rusty Swapping: Rewriting a zswap Backend in Rust
Offered By: Linux Foundation via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the process of rewriting a zswap backend in Rust for the Linux kernel in this informative conference talk. Delve into the growing popularity of Rust as a second high-level language for kernel development and its potential applications in various subsystems. Learn about the zblock backend for zswap and understand the motivations behind reimplementing it in Rust. Discover the main principles of zblock, the challenges encountered during the Rust implementation, and gain insights from a performance and complexity comparison between the original and Rust versions. Gain valuable knowledge about kernel development, Rust's role in systems programming, and the practical considerations of language choice in operating system design.
