Writing bug free computer code is a challenging task in a low-level language like C. While C compilers are getting better and better at detecting possible bugs, they still have a long way to go. For application programming we have higher level languages that abstract away details in memory handling and concurrent programming. However, a lot of an operating system's source code is still written in C and the kernel is exclusively written in C. How can we make writing kernel code safer? What are the performance penalties we have to pay for writing safe code? In this thesis, we will answer these questions using the Rust programming language.
