This is extremely cool

Parent article: Formatted Rust kernel documentation available

Not only is Rust now solidly beginning to wrap and build on the kernel, this documentation is absolutely delightful to read. Seriously, this beats reading C code by a light year.

I find that quite often perusing this type of documentation (Rustdoc), even if there is exactly zero human readable text, just the structs and traits, is perfectly adequate to use a crate productively. If that is the way kernel docs are going, then I foresee a 10X jump ie kernel programming productivity for those who use these affordances and contribute to make them more extensive.

Sooooooooo nice!
