Worked on the microsoft/openvmm repository to enhance virtualization and TDX-based security features, focusing on low-level system programming and CPU architecture. Over three months, delivered features such as improved CPU topology handling under hyperthreading, refined trusted domain isolation controls, and dedicated debug exception handling for TDX environments. Applied Rust and Assembly to strengthen error handling in the TDX tdcall path, introducing spec-aligned error types and robust validation to reduce silent failures. Enhanced CPU information retrieval by validating CPUID leaf 0xB and simplifying MSR handling, improving accuracy for virtualization workloads. The work emphasized correctness, security, and maintainability in hypervisor development.
