That can be achieved by linux dropping support for architectures not supported by rust :D
I'm joking of course, but the platform support list of rust is pretty good looking at [1].
I'm pretty sure people developing for arm5 aren't building the linux kernel on arm5.

- guenthert 5y agoYes, x-compiling is certainly an option, particularly since developers typically have access to hardware easily capable of such (it's just a minor pain to set-up). Linux has always favored support for currently (and in the foreseeable future) relevant architectures over widest possible spread. I don't quite understand the desire to run recent software on museums piece hardware, but for those who must, there's NetBSD.
