Development of an OpenWrt-based distribution for Wi-Fi routers, including custom configuration, modification, porting and integration of network services. Developed back-end functionality in Lua for custom router services.Technologies: C, Lua, OpenWrt, git.

Maintaining packages, working on LibreSSL support, reviewing pull requests on GitHub, fixing bugs, sending patches upstream, etc.See my contributions in the main repository: https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/log/?qt=grep&q=Stefan+StroginTechnologies: Linux, Bash, Git, Python, Shell Scripting

Development of an Industrial IoT gateway.Technologies: C, MQTT, MessagePack, Git, Jenkins.

— Yocto/OpenEmbedded based distribution and SDK development, on which IOS XE is based, and its adaptation to Cisco devices.— Some specific development in Linux kernel while getting IOS XE running on new devices (x86-64, arm64, mips64), in various kernel subsystems like DTS, hardware-specific reboot code, kdump, memory management, connectors (netlink based interface for kernel-userspace communication), etc.— Porting drivers to new kernel versions.— Analyzing and backporting patches.— Submitting patches upstream (Linux kernel, OpenEmbedded).— Mentoring a trainee. Main areas: Linux kernel, kexec/kdump, OpenEmbedded, git, Jira, working with open source & free software community (submitting patches etc.).Technologies: Linux kernel, OpenEmbedded, C, Bash, Python, Git, Gerrit, Jira, Cisco IOS.

One of the projects I worked for is Tempesta FW (https://github.com/tempesta-tech/tempesta). It's a hybrid of reverse proxy for HTTP acceleration and web application firewall, built into Linux kernel.My contributions: https://github.com/tempesta-tech/tempesta/commits?author=steils

Linux kernel development, mostly memory management.— Backporting improvements and fixes for various subsystems from the mainline kernel to vendor's kernel used in OS Tizen for Samsung Smart TV.— Analyzing kernel crash reports, fixing bugs.— Developed a debugging tool for CMA (contiguous memory allocator) then used in the engineering process in Samsung.— Submitted some patches to the Linux kernel community (some were accepted to the kernel).

Teaching assembly language (x86, GAS, AT&T syntax). Labs, exams.

— Developing Linux device drivers used in a test bench for onboard avionics (PCI, PCE-E, USB, attached on Fibre Channel and MIL-STD-1553).— Testing of the developed device drivers (writing user-space tests in C using the driver API, as well as using test bench software).— System administration tasks: mailing lists, trac, git repositories, installing and upgrading software, installing and configuring GNU/Linux distributions on test bench PCs, etc.
