Contributed to the DynamoRIO/dynamorio repository by enhancing cache and TLB simulation capabilities over a two-month period. Focused on C++ system programming, this work included refactoring the cache replacement policy interface to enable dynamic, pluggable policies and decoupling policy logic from cache devices for greater extensibility. Improvements also addressed memory management and simulation realism by supporting larger page sizes and preventing overflows through 64-bit counters. Additional features included robust TLB simulator enhancements, such as Bit PLRU policy support, standardized argument naming, and improved error handling. Comprehensive documentation and unit tests were provided to ensure maintainability and reliability of the new features.

Mar 1, 2025Month: 2025-03 | DynamoRIO/dynamorio work focused on API modernization, extensibility, and simulation realism. Key features delivered include: (1) Cache Replacement Policy Interface Refactor to decouple cache policy logic from the cache device, enabling dynamic policy definitions and easier extensibility. Refactored existing policies to use a new interface and std::unique_ptr-based policy objects, aligning with future policy customization. (2) Caching Device API Enhancement introducing set_parent for caching_device_t to manage parent-child relationships; synchronized parent’s children list and child’s parent pointer; added get_children helper and accompanying unit tests to validate the API. (3) Cache Simulator Page Size Support and Overflow Prevention by extending the cache simulator to support larger memory pages; switched relevant size and block count variables to int64_t and updated compute_log2 and initialization across cache components to prevent overflows and improve realism. Also included Release Notes documenting the refactor.
