Linux 6.10 Adds Rust Support for RISC‑V Architecture

Linux kernel version 6.10, currently under development, has merged a patch that introduces Rust programming language support for the RISC‑V architecture.

Previously, Rust was only usable in the kernel on x86_64, LoongArch, and ARM64, and its usage remained limited to a few basic drivers.

The new patch also adds broader support for Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite processors, including DisplayPort (DP) and Embedded DisplayPort (eDP) interfaces.
