Towards the C-based attack surface:

I think using the Rust-for-linux wrappers to implement the drivers in Rust would eventually help.

Also, even if initially Linux C drivers were transplanted into Kerla that could be a net benefit if the tradeoff of wide device driver availability vs increase in the trusted compute base was acceptable.

I personally think that tradeoff would be acceptable - if the transplanting ability was tractable. It's a hard one to absolutely agree on, admittedly.

Towards the minimal set of hardware, fair point! I think that one should be able to get quite far with judicious selection of device driver classes and leave the truly in-flux classes alone ?
