Background

I'm now(2013) a third year master student, from the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences. I major in Operating System and I focus on the Storage issues in the data center.

I have contacted with Linux since 2007 when I'm a sophomore, I just play with it for fun. The time I began to use Linux in my daily life is 2010, and I choosed Fedora from plenty of Linux Distributions, the reason is simple: Fedora is cool and steady.

The stuff I'm studying

  • File System
  • NoSQL

The major project I have done

  • 2011, I together with another student, developed a shared fs based on FUSE, it's used to store libvirt checkpoint file and image file, then multiple VMs could read/write a checkpoint or image simultaneously.
  • 2012, as a GSoC project, I made the smbfs(CIFS client) in illumos support mmap.
  • 2012, I spent some time porting ecryptfs-utils to RedFlag Linux, making it work with ecryptfs, to support encrypted home directory.
