Hi Ayush Thanks for the great work. Would you please help me understand that how far we are between current [1] and final upstream to Rust? Is upstreaming a goal of GSoC project? Thank you Yao Jiewen From: devel@edk2.groups.io On Behalf Of Ayush Singh Sent: Tuesday, August 2, 2022 1:50 AM To: Pedro Falcato ; edk2-devel-groups-io Cc: Kinney, Michael D ; Michael Kubacki ; Yao, Jiewen ; Gaibusab, Jabeena B Subject: Re: [edk2-devel] Proposal to move Rust std work to a Repository under Tianocore Hi Pedro. To clarify the original email. The proposal is not to create a new repository to start Rust std work. Rather, it is to move all the per-existing work that I have done for implementing std since the beginning of GSoC. This work can be found in my personal fork [1]. A significant portion of std is already in a working state for DXE UEFI and is at a point that a PR can be opened in a few weeks upstream to get it merged. A fork under Tianocore would allow more people, form both Rust and Tianocore side to experiment/improve the std, with the final goal of getting it all merged in upstream Rust.

It seems far more plausible to expect people to use a cut down version with some bindings to the rest of the project instead of hoping people just use the whole of rust, a lot of which isnt proven (or even used AFAIK) in bare metal projects. Porting just the bare minimum is way more realistic in my opinion. Thanks, Pedro On Mon, 1 Aug 2022, 18:02 Ayush Singh, > wrote: Hello everyone. In the previous email thread [1], I discussed the proposal to move Rust std work to edk2-staging and mentioned its potential problems. After some discussion with mentors, we arrived at the conclusion to have a rustlang [2] fork under the Tianocore organization, and move all the std related work there. We can then open a PR upstream from there, while allowing PRs in this repository. This should help provide an easier and streamlined way for people to experiment and work on this project while it is in the process of being merged upstream.
