    Not directly related but there are some Rust wrappers around EthetCAT libraries such as https://github.com/ethercat-rs/ethercat. EtherCAT is commonly used as a realtime fieldbus in industrial motion control, for example KUKA and Staubli use EtherCAT between their motion controller and the servo drives. KUKA uses Acontis as the EthetCAT master software, but I am not sure what motion libraries they use.

    Makes sense. The EtherCAT master component can be loaded as a kernel module (for Etherlab), which I think is somewhat independent of the user code. The rust code interfaces with the driver through syscalls. There is some discussion about Rust with PREEMPT_RT here https://github.com/rust-embedded/linux-embedded-hal/issues/45 but it looks like it is still open.
