Rust is catching many developer communities' (kernels, game engines, browsers etc.) attention lately. I have never used it but considering to use it in the future.

But I am wondering how will they make it work with underlying Linux mechanisms. One of the first challenge that comes to my mind is RCU or any other memory reclamation functions. Will they not use these memory mechanisms at all or call them from Rust source code?

Why do you think there going to be an issue to call them from Rust?

Well, most of them includes heavy macros that is designed to be optimized by the compiler. So calling a macro from another language with different syntax does not sound easy.
