+QEMU supports rustc version 1.77.0 and newer. Notably, the following features
are missing:
-* Generic Associated Types (1.65.0)
-
-* ``CStr::from_bytes_with_nul()`` as a ``const`` function (1.72.0).
-
-* "Return position ``impl Trait`` in Traits" (1.75.0, blocker for including
- the pinned-init create).
-
* inline const expression (stable in 1.79.0), currently worked around with
associated constants in the ``FnCall`` trait.

-It is expected that QEMU will advance its minimum supported version of
-rustc to 1.77.0 as soon as possible; as of January 2025, blockers
-for that right now are Debian bookworm and 32-bit MIPS processors.
-This unfortunately means that references to statics in constants will
-remain an issue.
-
QEMU also supports version 0.60.x of bindgen, which is missing option
``--generate-cstr``. This option requires version 0.66.x and will
be adopted as soon as supporting these older versions is not necessary
