I like to give back to community and help other codebases in whatever capacity I can in my free time.
Etcd - Distributed Key-Value Store (CNCF)
Contributions across robustness testing, authentication, client behavior, and server internals:
- Improved client-server authentication for client managed JWTs #20747, #20802
- Removed duplicate delete/compact operations in robustness tests, reducing linearization cost #20877, #21043
Lua In Kernel - Kernel Adjacent Runtime
- Eliminated index-based method dispatch by eagerly wrapping class methods at initialization, reducing allocations in hot paths #410
- Added LLDP example using
AF_PACKETto demonstrate low-level packet I/O #341 - Standardized raw socket patterns for safer reuse #360, #364
- Enforced explicit (protocol, ifindex) pairing in raw socket
bind()for API correctness #378
- Fixed Java dependency analysis by excluding development dependencies from Gradle lockfile #8803
- Updated documentation to clarify handling of development dependencies in Gradle lockfiles #8830
- Added support for parsing
bun.lockfiles to improve Node.js ecosystem coverage #8851 - Implemented vulnerability analysis for Bun lockfiles in Node.js projects #8897
