 6:40 AM *  

The

team behind

Tyr started 2025 with little to show in our quest to
produce a Rust GPU driver for Arm Mali hardware, and by the end of the
year, we were able to play SuperTuxKart (a 3D open-source racing
game) at the Linux Plumbers Conference (LPC). Our prototype was a joint
effort between Arm, Collabora, and Google; it ran well for the duration
of the event, and the performance was more than adequate for players.
Thankfully, we picked up steam at precisely the right moment: Dave
Airlie just

announced in the Maintainers Summit that the DRM subsystem
is only "about a year away" from disallowing new drivers written in C
and requiring the use of Rust. Now it is time to lay out a
possible roadmap for 2026 in order to upstream all of this work.
