Message   LWN.net    All   Upstreaming Tyr: Rust, DRM, and the Linux Kernel (Collabora)   October 22, 2026
 6:40 AM *  

The Collabora blog provides
an update on Tyr, a driver for Arm Mali GPUs.

One of our biggest challenges has been developing Tyr while the
	Rust kernel abstractions and driver interfaces are also being
	developed. As the driver interfaces are naturally revised and
	improved, we have rewritten Tyr several times to adapt to the
	larger Rust ecosystem. This not only makes progress much slower
	than it would be with a mature API, but also stalls progress for
	capabilities, such as job scheduling, while the abstraction is
	properly designed, reviewed, tested, and merged upstream.

But working in this evolving environment is also precisely where
	Tyr is able to provide the most value. As a user of these new Rust
	abstractions, Tyr helps to expose their requirements and
	limitations.
