Jenna May developed FPDT support for ARM FVP firmware boot timings in the tianocore/edk2-platforms repository, focusing on enhancing observability during platform bring-up. She extended the Platform/ARM/VExpressPkg to capture and store detailed boot stage timings, integrating the Firmware Performance Data Table (FPDT) specification. Her work involved modifying DSC and FDF files to define new VExpressPkg components, ensuring accurate data collection for performance analysis. Using C and leveraging expertise in ACPI and embedded systems, Jenna’s contribution improved the ability to diagnose and analyze firmware boot sequences. The work demonstrated depth in firmware development and ARM architecture integration.
