PROFILE

Raphael Moreira Zinsly

Rzinsly developed and optimized low-level compiler features across the espressif/llvm-project and rust-lang/gcc repositories, focusing on RISC-V and SH architectures. Over five months, they implemented stack clash protection and stack probing for RISC-V, enhancing memory safety by integrating probing loops and updating backend allocation logic in C and LLVM IR. In rust-lang/gcc, they improved code generation for SH right-shift operations and expanded RISC-V vector extension support, refining shuffle and slide pattern recognition using C++ and assembly optimization. Their work addressed both feature development and critical bug fixes, demonstrating depth in compiler development, embedded systems, and low-level systems programming.

Work History

October 2025

2 Commits

Oct 1, 2025

October 2025: Focused on RISC-V architecture correctness in the rust-lang/gcc repo. Implemented critical stack-probing reliability fixes and slide-pattern recognition improvements, with tests added to prevent regressions. These changes enhance codegen reliability on RV architectures (RV64/RV32), reduce miscompilation risk, and strengthen test coverage for future RV-related work.

June 2025 monthly summary for rust-lang/gcc: Focused on performance-oriented back-end optimization in the SH architecture. Delivered an optimization to recognize right-shifts by 31, generating more efficient code for affected cases. Implemented by introducing a new SH backend function, sh_recog_treg_set_expr_not_01, to improve recognition of expressions like >> 31. This change reduces the instruction count in generated assembly, enhancing runtime performance and code quality for critical SH paths. The work was committed in a single change with message "sh: Recognize >> 31 in treg_set_expr_not_const01" (commit eda5a15909c315f0a4a7e76ad083f5f16cf1aef9).

January 2025: Delivered stack clash protection enhancements for RISC-V RVV allocations and dynamic memory allocations in espressif/llvm-project. Implemented stack-clash safe RVV vector allocations via RISCV::PROBED_STACKALLOC_RVV, introduced frame lowering changes for variable-sized RVV stack probing, and added a runtime probing loop with SelectionDAG support for dynamic allocations to ensure stack safety at runtime. These changes improve memory safety for RVV workloads and reduce risk of runtime crashes or instability in production builds, aligning with reliability and safety goals for vector workloads.

Dec 1, 2024

December 2024 monthly summary for espressif/llvm-project: Implemented RISC-V stack clash protection and stack probing to harden stack usage and prevent overflows. Enabled -fstack-clash-protection for RISC-V, added stack probing in function prologues, and updated the Clang driver and RISC-V backend to allocate stacks with probing. Implemented unrolled and variable-length probing loops to cover different allocation sizes. All changes are in commit 708a478d6739aea20a8834cea45490f05b07ca10 ( RISCV: Add stack clash protection ).
