Worked on stabilizing kernel builds for RISC-V platforms in the Zephyr4Microchip/zephyr repository by addressing a configuration dependency cycle related to atomic operations. Applied expertise in C programming, embedded systems, and kernel development to deliver a targeted patch that ensures architecture-specific atomic operations are selected when available, preventing the use of a generic fallback that previously caused build-time cycles. Hardened Kconfig logic to avoid misconfiguration and implemented compile-time safety checks, reducing build failures on platforms lacking the A ISA extension. This work improved kernel reliability and maintainability, focusing on robust configuration management and safer build processes for RISC-V boards.
