During six months on JetBrainsRuntime, D. Zhang enhanced RISC-V vector support and reliability by developing and refining backend features, test infrastructure, and hardware abstraction. Zhang improved vector instruction handling and test gating, ensuring RVV features only activate on supported hardware, and aligned pipeline descriptions with the RISC-V specification. Using C++, Java, and Assembly, Zhang consolidated vector intrinsic checks, automated hardware feature detection, and stabilized CI by isolating known failures. The work addressed both performance and maintainability, reducing test flakiness and configuration errors while preparing the codebase for future RISC-V updates. These contributions deepened the project’s low-level optimization and testing capabilities.
