Over a three-month period, 18328591636@163.com contributed to the OpenXiangShan/ChiselAIA repository by enhancing interrupt scalability and system reliability. They expanded IMSIC interrupt source capacity, updated hardware parameters, and improved address handling for control and status registers, using Scala and hardware description languages. Their work included migrating diagram assets from Draw.io to SVG, streamlining documentation and build processes with Makefile and Nix. By executing disciplined rollbacks and targeted bug fixes, they preserved system stability while increasing interrupt capacity for virtualized workloads. The depth of their contributions reflects strong skills in embedded systems, digital design, and build system management.

In Apr 2025, the OpenXiangShan/ChiselAIA project delivered targeted IMSIC improvements and stability fixes that enhance interrupt capacity and reliability for virtualized workloads. Key feature delivered: IMSIC Address Handling and Interrupt File Configuration, improving illegal-vs-ignored CSR address handling and increasing default guest interrupt files from 5 to 7 to boost interrupt capacity and tolerance for certain memory-mapped CSR accesses. Key bug fix: IMSIC Address Handling Rollback, reverting prior changes that introduced ignored-address handling and the geilen default changes to restore original address validation logic and default behavior, preserving stability. Commit references: c86c7d4de9c26934beb75e2ad1b57e1e2d652599, 031736e21c8e4df3b18ef2ab9df2f09b6f80d065, 0d429ba33c5413c8af91ab59629431a0d1c4566f, 589ea6ab1778ea0bc40717912855af60d38d1c86. Overall impact: increased interrupt capacity, better tolerance for CSR accesses, and improved stability through disciplined rollback. Technologies/skills demonstrated: IMSIC architecture understanding, CSR handling, debugging, Git-based traceability, and rollback discipline.

February 2025: Delivered scalability improvements to the IMSIC interrupt path in OpenXiangShan/ChiselAIA by expanding default interrupt sources from 256 to 512. This was achieved by widening imsicIntSrcWidth from 8 to 9 and updating APLIC/IMSIC parameter definitions. The change, captured in the commit 'Modify default parameters' (d532f72cb3c0ed4e9ac551d75e62e6ef0e198a9a), enhances system capacity under higher load and reduces risk of interrupt saturation. Overall, this work strengthens reliability and performance for higher-concurrency workloads.
