Worked extensively on OpenWrt and DragonBluep/openwrt repositories, focusing on kernel development, package management, and build system configuration using C and Makefile. Delivered driver migrations, such as deprecating legacy i40evf in favor of IAVF, and maintained wireless regulatory updates, including 6GHz support for India. Upgraded and stabilized Sing-box and Privoxy packages, ensuring reproducible builds and secure dependency management. Addressed SD card power management for RK3576 Nanopi R76S by backporting kernel fixes and customizing device trees, improving reliability in low-power states. Demonstrated strong version control practices, end-to-end traceability, and a methodical approach to embedded systems and Linux kernel integration.
June 2026: Delivered a critical SD card power management stabilization fix for RK3576-based Nanopi R76S in DragonBluep/openwrt by backporting an upstream fix to address SD power loss during runtime suspend. The patch maintains SD card power via a GPIO-controlled regulator and adds hotplug support, resulting in more reliable SD card operation in low-power states and improved suspend performance. The change aligns with upstream Linux commit a9c1acebfe0484343a443d082e039ca77186ed22 and was integrated through a DTS update (vcc3v3_sd regulator, sdmmc power rails, and cd-gpios). Business value: higher device reliability in battery-powered deployments, fewer field failures, and smoother user experience on RK3576 OpenWrt devices. Demonstrated skills: kernel backporting, device-tree customization, GPIO-regulator integration, MMC/SD stack, and cross-repo collaboration.
