GSoC Introduction

[Ida Delphine]

Greetings everyone,

I am Ida Delphine from the University of Bamenda, Cameroon. I came across
RTEMS when lurking the GSoC organisations page. Considering my interest
iand little experience in the embedded space, I'll love to get to know more
about RTEMS. I'm very proficient in Python and will love to contribute to
RTEMS for GSoC 2021.

Cheers,
Ida.

You can go through this page for setting up RTEMS on your system. 
https://docs.rtems.org/branches/master/user/start/gsoc.html

Also, you can explore the projects on 
(https://devel.rtems.org/wiki/Developer/OpenProjects) and choose what you're 
interested in.

You can ask your doubts here, someone on this mailinglist would definitely help 
you out.

Many of the Testing and the Development Environment tasks are
Python-related. There is some C++ (coverage testing) and the rest is
mostly in C/asm.

The way it works is that you will discuss the open projects (here)
with mentors, and identify one to develop into a proposal. It will not
be assigned until later maybe, but we aim to prevent multiple students
from expending much effort to develop overlapping proposals, so
keeping the discussion open and transparent is helpful.

So if one or a few tasks appeal to you, please feel free to start
talking about them, as you work your way through our getting started
material.

GSoC Introduction, completed getting started guide.

[Daman Bir Singh]

Hello everyone,

I am Daman from Bits Pilani, K K Birla Campus Goa, India. I am very
interested in working with your organization for GSoC 2021. I have followed
the GSoC Getting Started Guide
  and was
successfully able to build and change the 'hello' test case.(screenshots
and patch attached).
It would be a great help if you could guide me how to proceed further.

Thanks & Regards,
Daman Bir Singh

[GSoC] Introduction and Hello World proof

[Amaan Cheval]

Hey everyone!

# Intro

I'm still gaining familiarity with RTEMS, so I'm not sure about projects
I might be interested in, but I'll make sure I communicate and discuss
things as that changes.

A little bit about who I am; I'm a final year (i.e. year 4) engineering
student at Thakur College of Engineering in Mumbai, India. I've been
working part-time for a startup building an Intel x86 emulator for
nearly a year now; the emulator runs in Node.js and browsers
(client-side JavaScript) - we use a fair amount of C (compiled to
WebAssembly) and JavaScript for the source, and often some
specific regression tests in x86 assembly, so I'm quite familiar with
all of those.

Other trivia: my friends also make fun of me for having uttered the
phrase "textbooks are like crack" :P

I'd also like to say that this is an incredible project and I'm very
excited to have come across it! :D

# Hello World proof

More to the point: I'm interested in participating in GSoC with RTEMS
this year, and though I haven't finished perusing the abundant
information on the wiki yet, I figured I'd get involved with the
community early.

In doing so, I've followed the getting started[1] instructions and
patched the hello world C sample.

The diff is as follows:

diff --git a/testsuites/samples/hello/init.c b/testsuites/samples/hello/init.c
index 34ded37c55..3f0d6ce9f1 100644
--- a/testsuites/samples/hello/init.c
+++ b/testsuites/samples/hello/init.c
@@ -22,7 +22,9 @@ static rtems_task Init(
 {
   rtems_print_printer_fprintf_putc(&rtems_test_printer);
   TEST_BEGIN();
-  printf( "Hello World\n" );
+  printf( "\n\n*** GSoC HELLO WORLD TEST ***\n" );
+  printf( "Amaan says hello in 2018!\n" );
+  printf( "*** END OF GSoC HELLO WORLD TEST ***\n" );
   TEST_END();
   rtems_test_exit( 0 );
 }

(I'm working my way around the project still, but I found that using
examples-v2/hello was much simpler than modifying the testsuite sample,
but my screenshot shows both modifications working.)

I noticed that Gedare asked for a previous proof screenshot to be sent
directly to them[2] - would you like me to do the same?

Would you also like the patch files along with the screenshot?

Hi daman,
You have to send the patch using git send-email. To any of the maintainers.

This screenshot is acceptable, you can ignore my other email about the
screenshot. Please proceed to update the tracking table with your
info, and start to investigate which open projects you might like to
consider. You will need to engage on this mailing list with the
potential mentors about those projects, as some of the projects may be
no longer available or suitable, and in general the projects need to
be scoped appropriately.

Hello Everyone,

I am very muck interested in the Ticket 4272
, BSP Executable Conversion. Please
guide me if this project is suitable for GSoC and how can I proceed further
to start working on this.

I think that's a great area for a project

Please start a separate email thread with a title like "GSoC Project - BSP
Executable Conversion" so the people who know about it will see is separate
from a general GSoC email.

I just came across this[3], so I'll follow the same instructions and (1)
send the screenshot to Gedare/Joel and (2) add myself to the WIP wiki

Then I'll draw your attention to the varied x86 BSP improvement
projects. The goal there is to move toward a modern, possibly unified,
BSP for x86_64 and x86 targets. You might also be interested in
language-level projects to support using Node.js on RTEMS if you enjoy
JavaScript.

Thanks! I was in fact eyeing the x86_64 BSP targets. I aim to understand
RTEMS more from a user's perspective - likely using the POSIX API to
build some toy projects and whatnot.

As time goes on, hopefully I'll be able to contribute smaller patches -
does the RTEMS tracker have tickets marked with any keywords indicating
the easier tickets to tackle? (In the spirit of how Github projects tend
to have "good-first-issue" labels for new contributors.)
