The rust team takes care of Rust Programming Language and Rust-related ports and packages.

  • lang/rust tracks Rust Stable and is updated every 6 weeks. It uses lang/rust-bootstrap to bootstrap.
  • lang/rust-nightly tracks Rust Nightly and is updated weeklu. It uses prebuilt bootstraps provided by upstream, which are currently limited to amd64 and i386 architectures.
  • lang/rust-bootstrap creates cross-compiled bootstraps for all supported architectures which are later used to build lang/rust.
  • Cargo integration is available in the ports framework via USES=cargo (Mk/Uses/cargo.mk)

We currently maintain lang/rust for the following architecture and release combinations:

  • FreeBSD 11.4+ for i386, amd64, armv6
  • FreeBSD 12.1+ additionally for: armv7, aarch64 (arm64) 1), powerpc64 ELFv1 2)
  • FreeBSD 13.0+ additionally for: powerpc64 Big Endian ELFv2, powerpc64 Little Endian ELFv2

1)
< 12.1 not supported due to a bug in rtld
2)
13.0 will use the new ELFv2 ABI
