GSoC 2026: Introduction and PoW: Hengzhang

Hello RTEMS community

I’m Zhang Heng, a second-year graduate student focusing on embedded real-time systems. I’m learning RTEMS for my coursework and hope to contribute to the project through GSoC 2026. Here’s my proof of work:

I modified the core logic file hello.c in my RTEMS hello world project, adding a custom print message while keeping the original “Hello World” output for comparison. The change is simple: I added printf("\n\tHello Zxh\n"); after the original print statement.

The program ran successfully, outputting both the original “Hello World” and my custom message (screenshot attached below). I also generated a Git patch for this modification to make it easy to review.
