Google Android team embraces Rust for Android OS development


Looking to prevent memory bugs, the Android Open Source Project now supports the Rust language for development of the Android mobile OS itself, taking on development tasks that have been the domain of C/C++.
In a Google blog post on April 6, members of the Android team stressed that correctness of code in Android was a top priority for security, stability, and quality. Memory safety bugs are a top contributor to stability issues, representing about 70 percent of high-severity security vulnerabilities in Android; safety bugs in C and C++ continue to be the most difficult to address. Rust provides memory safety guarantees by leveraging compile-time checks to enforce object lifetime checks to ensure that memory accesses are valid, Android team members said. Further, Rust achieves this safety while providing performance equivalent to C and C++. ....

Google has officially announced a new Pixel phone, the Pixel 5A 5G. It’s done so in the same way it has announced a lot of recent Pixel phones: by reacting to a rumor. This time is a little less fun than usual, though, because the rumor in question is that the phone had been canceled entirely. In response, a Google spokesperson sent along the following statement:
Pixel 5a 5G is not cancelled. It will be available later this year in the U.S. and Japan and announced in line with when last year’s a-series phone was introduced. ....

Rust in the Android platform – OSnews


Correctness of code in the Android platform is a top priority for the security, stability, and quality of each Android release. Memory safety bugs in C and C++ continue to be the most-difficult-to-address source of incorrectness. We invest a great deal of effort and resources into detecting, fixing, and mitigating this class of bugs, and these efforts are effective in preventing a large number of bugs from making it into Android releases. Yet in spite of these efforts, memory safety bugs continue to be a top contributor of stability issues, and consistently represent ~70% of Android’s high severity security vulnerabilities. ....

Google Using Rust for Low-Level Android Development


Google Using Rust for Low-Level Android Development
Google is now using Rust for low-level development of the Android Open Source Project (AOSP).
Kotlin and Java are the primary languages used for creating Android applications, but C and C++ are still used for the core of the operating system (OS). Google is hoping to use the advantages Rust provides by allowing its use in the low-level OS.
Rust is very similar to C and C++, having many of the same keywords and commands. Like C, Rust also has no garbage collection, making it ideal for integration with C code. What Rust does have, however, is memory safety in the form of ownership. ....
