MISRA and Ferrocene are not really related other than both being vaguely in the safety space.
MISRA is, as you say, a set of rules for writing C code, that restrict what you can do.
Ferrocene is a qualified compiler. You write any normal Rust code you want: it's still the upstream Rust compiler. There are no restrictions.
Incidentally, someone has compared what MISRA does to what Rust does: https://github.com/PolySync/misra-rust/blob/master/MISRA-Rules.md https://github.com/PolySync/misra-rust/blob/master/MISRA-Rul...
Given that they can't repeat the MISRA stuff there, it's a bit disjoined, but it sure is interesting!
