I love rust but it's not a panacea. It'll prevent memory errors and type errors in a lot of cases but that's not the only way you can crash a kernel. Logic errors and giving the wrong data over the interfaces to the kernel have potential to either kill processes, lock up the kernel or cause it to corrupt data. The ebpf interfaces by design don't suffer from these problems because of their restricted nature. They purposefully say there are things you can't compute here so they don't have to solve the halting problem and various other things!
