Of course, D would be a great choice, but C# may be better. I hear
that Torvalds really wants to see more Mono drivers in the kernel.
What else would we do with our 4GB RAM machines?
There is even a Ms project for that :-)
No seriously, nothing in the kernel is coded in anything but C or
assembler. You might as well just make the C code a little more
pretty.
But you know that D is meant for drivers - as a C++ replacement!?
Define 'driver'!
C++ has nothing to do with the Linux kernel (and nor does D). The
kernel and its subsystems will continue to be written in C for the
fore-C-able future.
You didn' answer my main question:
Is it true that the programming style of reiser4 is recursive
style and
that this kind of style was rejected from the kernel developers?
As for 'recursion', it is nothing to be afraid of. Except the kind
that blows stacks. ;-)
