That's going to take a while. But at least the linux kernel is starting to integrate Rust. It's doubtful they'll rewrite the whole thing in Rust, but getting it in there is a start.

I know the Chromium team was considering switching to Rust too, but who knows if that's ever going to happen. IIRC Chromium has more LOC than the linux kernel.

There is a PR (or whatever they call them) to add the rust toolchain into chromium’s build infrastructure. The link is in my submission history. Didn’t get any traction on here, but fingers crossed!
