Ben Stoltz contributed to the oxidecomputer/hubris repository by developing and refining low-level embedded features and stability fixes over a four-month period. He delivered a GPIO Pin Interrupt API for the LPC55 microcontroller, enabling event-driven task activation through hardware interrupts, and implemented a flash bank measurement feature triggered by SP_RESET, which included RAM injection and SHA3-256 hash retrieval for security verification. Ben also addressed build failures by adjusting stack sizes in configuration files and improved system update reliability through robust version translation logic. His work demonstrated depth in Rust, configuration management, and embedded systems, focusing on maintainability and hardware integration.

Month: 2025-08 focused on stabilizing cross-version compatibility and reliability of system updates in the hubris repository. Delivered a targeted bug fix that improves deserialization robustness and version handling for VersionedRotBootInfo during MGS-RoT interactions, reducing update failure risk across devices.

March 2025: Delivered a feature for the hubris repository that enables flash bank measurement triggered by SP_RESET, including RAM injection, execution of a measurement program in SP RAM, and retrieval of the SHA3-256 hash of the flash bank. The work also set up handling for SP reset and JTAG-detection interrupts with robust SWD state management and error handling.

November 2024: Delivered a stability fix in oxidecomputer/hubris to address a build failure when compiling all applications by increasing the stack size for task-net in the app management configuration. This change, committed as a842b3c0c96664b0dcdf785f01c832cc523ed992 (PR #1923), reduces CI flakiness and enables successful multi-app builds. Result: smoother deployments, fewer manual interventions, and improved reliability of network task handling.
