    The kernel repository includes a number of configuration and debugging tools in various scripting languages, but these aren't build inputs for the kernel itself.

      That's what I figured, thus I avoided saying it was part of the kernel itself. Nevertheless, they play a role in its development, build infrastructure, etc., which I believe is important as the collective work of various workers and their tools make the existence of the Linux kernel possible. Hence, the chud devs that complain about wOkE languages can go suck on a sock.

      I'm not implying an absence of issues with Rust and other languages; just pointing out the lunacy of egotistical, rightoid, wannabe devs.
