Wow. Talk about overlooking the obvious. Thanks lol...


Maybe most likely, but not necessarily obvious. While there's no popular module for kernel written in something else than C (as far as I know), there are known ways to write working non-C modules.


C was best assumption as 99+% chance it would be C. Yet, you are right in that I've seen device drivers for Linux done in Ada and ATS languages. It's why I usually don't assume but one was warranter here.
