Description

This talk will cover the current state of Tyr, a new GPU kernel mode driver written in Rust for ARM Mali GPUs. We will discuss the status of the abstractions in the Rust-for-Linux ecosystem and lay out the roadmap to upstream the driver. We will touch upon its relationship to the current C implementation in the kernel (Panthor) and how we plan to have these two drivers co-exist for the foreseeable future.
