Wouldn't Inferno be a better fit for these sort of devices? In my experience these things are used primarily as I/O devices, with most of the CPU cycles going towards reducing/normalizing/marshalling the data in and out. Nothing I've ever built out of an ESP*, Feather, Teensy, etc., would benefit from a full-on Plan9 kernel. But having a fully-integrated 9P+auth stack would make these microcontrollers a dream to integrate into a Plan9 environment. --lyndon
