PROFILE

Harish Chegondi

Worked on kernel and driver development in C, focusing on GPU architecture and graphics programming within the torvalds/linux and linux-riscv/linux repositories. Delivered two features: first, updated the xe_gt_mcr_get_dss_steering function to accept a const pointer, improving API safety and const-correctness; second, extended the Wa_18041344222 workaround to support Xe3 LPG graphics IP versions 30.00 and 30.01, broadening hardware compatibility. Addressed a major bug by refining the workaround for Xe2_HPG, disabling performance mode for discontiguous subslice groups during eustall sampling. Demonstrated cross-repository coordination, hardware-focused problem solving, and performance-conscious coding practices throughout the development process.

September 2025: Completed key Xe driver work across the torvalds/linux and linux-riscv/linux repositories, delivering two notable features and one major stability improvement. Key features delivered: (1) Xe_gt_mcr_get_dss_steering now accepts a const pointer for the gt parameter, enabling const-correct usage and safer API guarantees; (2) Xe3 LPG graphics IP compatibility extension that extends the Wa_18041344222 workaround to graphics IP versions 30.00 and 30.01, broadening compatibility with newer hardware. Major bugs fixed: Wa_18041344222 workaround for Xe2_HPG to disable performance mode for discontiguous subslice groups during eustall sampling, improving stability and preventing unintended performance mode changes. Overall impact and accomplishments: strengthened API correctness, expanded hardware compatibility, and tangible stability and performance improvements for Xe-based workflows. Technologies/skills demonstrated: kernel/driver development in C, DRM/XE subsystem work, implementing hardware workarounds, cross-repo coordination, and performance-conscious coding practices.
