Hi, excuse me for the bad English... Do you want porting the= musl to which RISC computer: for ekzample "Banana Pi", or...?

2015= -03-07 19:20 GMT+00:00 Devan Franchini <twitch153@gentoo.org>:
Hello musl mailing list,

I'd like to start off by introducing myself. My name is Devan Franchini=
and I'm
a senior student at D'Youville college in Buffalo, New York.=C2=A0 I= 9;m currently
working on my bachelor's degree in IT, which is a software engineering<= br> program,
and I'll hopefully be free from the shackles of structured education come next
semester.

Last night I joined the #musl channel in IRC and briefly discussed my
interest
in working on the GSoC project in which I would be porting the musl C
library
over to the RISC-V architecture. Here's a little bit about my backgroun= d:

* At D'Youville College I've been guided by the tutelage of Dr. Bas= ile
=C2=A0 (blueness at gentoo.= org), who has exposed me to my passion for
system-level
=C2=A0 development including but not limited to C standard libraries and system building.
* I've been working with Linux for five years and Gentoo Linux in parti= cular
=C2=A0 for three of those five years. This has given me a greater
understanding of
=C2=A0 Linux internals and its underlying beauties.
* I have successfully completed two GSoCs. After my first GSoC I worked wit= h
=C2=A0 blueness and became a Gentoo developer.
* I'm familiar with open-source development including version control systems
=C2=A0 systems (git and CVS), bug reports, submitting patches via bug repor= ts or
=C2=A0 email, and test suites.
* My strongest programming languages are Python, C, and C++, in that order.=
* I have taken a class dedicated solely to Linux system programming and I&#= 39;m
=C2=A0 familiar with POSIX, XOPEN, SUSv3 and SUSv4 standards. The text we u= sed is
=C2=A0 "The Linux Programming Interface" by Michael Kerrisk.
* I have worked with x86, and mips assembly code but I'd be lying if I<= br> said I
=C2=A0 remember most of it. However, I am quite capable of getting back on = the
=C2=A0 proverbial assembly horse.

I've already discussed with Dr Basile my interest in this project and h= e
stated
he'd be willing to work with me through the summer as well since he
integrated musl into Gentoo.

As of last night I was working on setting up a build environment for this project and have successfully built the tool-chain for riscv64 and the rest=
of the tool suite with instruction provided here:
https://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~qmn/linux/install.html

Hopefully I'll have this opportunity to work on porting the musl C
library to
new ground in the form of the RISC-V architecture.

With Regards,
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 Devan Franchini
