I will be mentored by Alex Bennée and will be working on solving memory consistency issues in the MTTCG project. In particular we are targeting to get ARM guests working on x86 hosts as a first step by adding TCG support to generate memory fence instructions at appropriate locations. Introducing myself, I am a graduate student at Georgia Tech and am really passionate about open source software. I use linux and am starting to learn emacs(thanks Alex :), even though I've been using it with configurations found online. I've previously contributed some patches to the linux kernel and worked on open source architectural simulators as part of my grad work. You can find me on IRC(username: pranith) where I except to bother all of you during the coming months. I plan to occasionally blog about my work. You can find it here: https://pranith.github.io/blog/. All comments/suggestions/advice are welcome. I am really glad that I got this opportunity to be part of the Qemu community and look forward to a productive summer! Thanks! -- Pranith
