Collabora details upstreaming the Tyr Rust DRM driver into the Linux kernel

Collabora described its work on Tyr, a Rust DRM driver for the Linux kernel, and the effort to upstream it. The driver has been rewritten several times as Rust kernel abstractions evolved, slowing work on job scheduling but helping expose the requirements and limits of the new interfaces.

• Tyr is a Rust DRM driver being upstreamed into the Linux kernel
• The driver was rewritten several times as Rust abstractions changed
• Job scheduling work waits on the abstractions being finalized
• Tyr helps surface requirements and limits of Rust kernel interfaces
