Who I am

My name is Massimiliano Pellizzer, and I have been a member of the Ubuntu Kernel Team since July 2024.

I have a master's degree in Computer Science and Engineering from Politecnico of Milan.

My Ubuntu story

Ubuntu user since Ubuntu 7.04 "Feisty Fawn". Back then I bought the book "Hacking: The art of exploitation" and it was bundled with an Ubuntu 7.04 LiveCD. Since then Ubuntu has been my distro of choice.

My involvement

I've been involved in:

• Hardware Enablement: worked IBM Power and IBM Z mainframes, as well as on NXP S32 SoC.
• Kernel Security: triaged and patched hundreds of CVEs across multiple series
• DKMS Packages: fixed DKMS packages on multiple series (both in SRU and development series)

Summary

Aside from these public kernels, I've also cranked private kernels:

# What experience do you have with the applicant?

Mass joined the team slightly after I have joined. Although, I haven't worked closely with Mass, it was impossible to not notice his work in the mailing lists. Whether it is backporting or reviews, he has been flawless there.

To be frank, he should have received upload rights long ago. This must be a rare case where Mass was assigned a small number of kernels if any.

# How many packages did you sponsor?

I have sponsored 7 packages officially.

# How would you judge the quality?

All of his packages they were prepared flawlessly regardless of the edge cases.

# Do you trust the applicant?

Yes, he has my full endorsement. With upload rights, he will be able to work even better and more independently.

I have sponsored 7 of Mass's cranks and they had no issues. Mass has more than proven his effectiveness in the kernel team, from cranking to mailing list and beyond. I fully endorse his Upload Rights application.

I have reviewed some kernel packages that Massimiliano prepared and all of them
were of good quality and could be uploaded to the archive as is. I trust Mass
to continue to prepare kernel packages with care and attention to detail
and give my +1.

General feedback

Massimiliano prepared the kernels that I have reviewed correctly and with care. Recently, he was granted DKMS upload rights which makes me very confident that he has the necessary skills and knowledge that is required in the kernel SRU process. I trust Massimiliano to continue to create kernel packages with diligence and to ask for feedback when appropriate. I am in favor of Massimiliano's application for kernel package upload rights. +1
