Worked on the TUM-DSE/doctor-cluster-config repository to enhance cluster infrastructure by focusing on system configuration and virtualization using Nix. Addressed configuration drift by removing NVIDIA-specific settings from the jamie host, ensuring alignment with the cluster’s baseline and improving stability. Subsequently, enabled hardware-assisted virtualization by introducing explicit IOMMU support through a new AMD IOMMU Nix module, integrating it into the module import system to facilitate VM passthrough and resource isolation. The work demonstrated a methodical approach to infrastructure management, emphasizing reproducibility and maintainability while leveraging Nix for declarative configuration and supporting evolving virtualization requirements within the cluster environment.
May 2025 (2025-05) focused on enabling hardware-assisted virtualization in the doctor-cluster-config repo. Delivered explicit IOMMU support on the Jamie host to enable VM passthrough and hardware virtualization features, including a new Nix module for AMD IOMMU and integration into the module import system. No major bug fixes were required this month; the work aligns with the virtualization roadmap, security isolation goals, and improved resource utilization for VM workloads.

Focused on stabilizing cluster configuration by removing GPU-specific customization on a single host to ensure consistency with the baseline Nix config and prevent unintended module deployment.
