[rust-dev] rust and cuda

[Madhu Srinivasan]

Hello fellow Rustians,
I am wondering (before attempting anything) if anyone has tried creating cuda bindings for rust? Or has discovered any other route to use cuda kernels with rust as the host language ?
If not, I am willing to work in this direction, but would need some guidance from the community on using rust-bindgen and it's FFI usage etc.

Thanks,
Madhu

Thanks ! Yes, I came across the blog and I've read the paper. However, I am not looking at writing GPU Kernels in Rust that can be LLVM'ed into a PTX backend.
I'm looking for something along the lines of rust-opencl https://github.com/luqmana/rust-opencl .

I'll be looking into this more deeply in the coming weeks, so please let me know if you have any inputs/opinions.
