Probably not "soon", AVR took a really long time to get merged into LLVM, and that's a pre-requisite for Rust support.

I can't comment on timelines but I know someone has been working on AVR support for Rust.
Oh yeah the micro folks are definitely working on it, I meant that if work is just starting on the LLVM Xtensa backend, the Rust merge is nowhere near, and as example submitted that the AVR backend had taken a long time to be merged into LLVM and still needs to be finished & merged for Rust.
