GSOC 2026 Introduction and Proof of Work

Introduction

Hello everyone,
I am Dhruva P V (aka Dhrulian). I am currently pursuing my 4th year of Engineering in Electronics and Communication. With a strong passion for Embedded Systems, I’m always looking forward to learning, collaborating, and exploring new technologies. I found the RTEMS GSoC program to be the perfect opportunity to achieve all of these goals.


Mandatory Task Completion

I have successfully completed the mandatory task:

  • Architecture: SPARC
  • BSP: erc32

My Contributions to RTEMS

Through these contributions, I have learned RTEMS workflow and development standards:

  • Score: Added checks to handle cases where the node was off_chain .
    MR: !871

  • Documentation: Added unsupported_methods in the posix-users directory .
    MR: !200


GSoC 2026 Focus

With the current GSoC 2026 focus, I am interested in working on:
“RISC-V in Supervisor Mode” - #3337

I have created a separate post for this and will update it with the required initial tasks, my research, and reasoning.


I would appreciate any suggestions or guidance from the maintainers and community members on this.

Thank you.
