← Back to context Comment by sophacles 9 months ago Perhaps we can finally stop defining abis in terms of c structs! 3 comments sophacles Reply qwm 9 months ago If only Rust had a spec to do that with sophacles 9 months ago I don't think they should be defined in terms of any programming language. They should be defined in terms of the architecture - bits, bytes, words and instructions, along with semantics of use. Like we do with networking protocols and file formats. steveklabnik 9 months ago It's being worked on! https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/3470
