I’m not in automotive, but I am interested in this too. Which MCUs are you thinking of?

Not OP, but just a set of MCU arch common in automotive that you'd have to bend a bit to compile Rust for:

- Renesas RH 850/v850 - there is a gcc but not a llvm backend

- RL78 (I think this is kind of dieing though)

- Infineon Aurix Tricore (Hightec has a compiler for it)

- PowerPC was pretty popular but I did not see it that much lately.

I'd like to add ST's Stellar MCU's: https://www.st.com/en/automotive-microcontrollers/stellar-32...

Looks like Oxid has a demo using these proc's: https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7041723...

We did have a demo using the Stellar MCU's. :)

But they weren't on my list because those have ARM cores and the support for those in Rust is quite good.

Thanks! Always interested in digging into details :)

There’s been a tremendous amount of interest in Rust for automotive over the past few years, but it’s a hard world to learn about unless you’re in it.
