Tool for setting up the environment for CHERI (currently only Aarch64 Morello) Rust development.
Since neither the LLVM nor the Rust support for CHERI is upstreamed yet, getting a working toolchain means juggling cheribuild, a patched Morello LLVM and a Rust fork with CHERI support. This CLI tool makes it easier to have this setup and gives you a cargo wrapper that targets Morello out of the box.
The only option right now for installing is building from source using cargo (you will need Rust 1.85.1 or higher):
cargo install --git https://github.com/sabikura/crability.git crability init writes a JSON configuration to ~/.config/crability/config.json. Every
repository is pinned to a specific commit that was tested to work, and everything is overridable.
Mostly the things that user may consider to configure is the path where the tool fetches
repositories (default is ~/.crability/repos) and the path where the tool installs
the built binaries (default is ~/.crability/bin).
Run crability help to find all the subcommands you can run in order to finish your setup.
After building the Rust fork successfully after the crability rust step, you should be able to run:
crability cargo --version- Linux (Debian/Ubuntu, RHEL/Fedora or Arch for
crability setup, but other distributions will work if you install cheribuild's dependencies yourself) git, and enough disk space and patience to wait for the LLVM and Rust builds to finish :>
