Worked on the firecracker-microvm/firecracker repository to implement Virtio-mmio DMA coherence support for aarch64 platforms lacking full Stage-2 FWB. Addressed a cache coherency gap by adding the dma-coherent property to virtio-mmio nodes in the aarch64 device tree, ensuring correct memory attributes for virtio queue operations. This change improved IO reliability and correctness across a wider range of hardware, reducing the risk of data corruption during virtio IO. The work required a strong understanding of Rust, embedded systems, and system programming, and demonstrated the ability to make cross-domain changes involving kernel, device tree, and virtualization architecture.

Month: 2025-11 – Key deliverable: Implemented Virtio-mmio DMA coherence support for aarch64 non-FWB platforms by adding the dma-coherent property to virtio-mmio nodes in the aarch64 FDT. This fixes a cache coherency gap between the guest and Firecracker's access to virtio queues, ensuring correct queue memory attributes (Write-Back) where Stage-2 FWB isn't available. Commit: 0aa8f6ca36403a4666ed6e90d9342d50b7b3a921. Business value: improved correctness and stability of IO paths across platforms, enabling broader deployment and reducing risk of data corruption in virtio IO.
