PROFILE

Jose Marinho

Worked on enhancing the MicrosoftDocs/windows-driver-docs repository by updating technical documentation related to interrupt handling for Arm GICv5 architectures. Focused on clarifying the usage restrictions of Global System Interrupts (GSI) within the SPCR, ensuring that GSIs are not assigned to PPI interrupts and that INTID guidance accurately reflects GICv5 specifications. Utilized Markdown for documentation and applied embedded systems knowledge to align the content with current Arm standards. This work improved the accuracy and clarity of developer guidance, reducing ambiguity and potential misconfigurations for driver authors. The primary contribution was a documentation bug fix, with no new product features released.

Monthly summary for 2026-03 focused on MicrosoftDocs/windows-driver-docs. Key work this month centered on documentation updates for interrupt handling with Arm GICv5. Key feature-like outcome: clarified GSI usage restrictions in SPCR for Arm GICv5 and aligned INTID guidance with the newer architecture. This involved updating the SPCR GSI description to ensure that GSI can be handled by any core, must not be a PPI interrupt, and that INTID restrictions are described in a way that reflects GICv5 behavior. These changes reduce ambiguity for driver authors, improve correctness of documentation, and align docs with Arm specifications. No customer-facing product features released this month; primary value came from accurate guidance for developers working on GICv5 interrupts. Repository: MicrosoftDocs/windows-driver-docs.
