Who I am

My name is Wei-Lin Chang, and I have been a member of the Ubuntu Kernel Team since August 2024.

I am currently responsible for maintaining the Ubuntu Xilinx kernel, and I have also done some research in Linux KVM ARM. I obtained my Master's degree in Computer Science from National Taiwan University in 2023.

My Ubuntu story

I first encountered Ubuntu in 2016 when I was learning about Linux. This marked my initial exploration into the world of Linux.

During my graduate studies, many of my experiments also required running in a Linux environment, and I continued to use the excellent Ubuntu system throughout the kernel development process.

Since joining Canonical, Ubuntu has become the default operating system on my laptop.

My involvement

I am currently responsible for tasks such as Xilinx partner engineering and Xilinx kernel maintenance.

General feedback

I have been reviewing 16 of the packages Wei-Lin has done so far. From memory I cannot remember any issues with those. If there ever were unclear situations they got resolved quickly and easy enough to not leave any negative impressions. I am trusting Wei-Lin to keep up that quality of work and support his application for PPU rights for kernel.

Areas of Improvement

As we now work with rather high level tooling there is always room for improvement by investigating and understanding how things work underneath. Also one should never be afraid of asking before doing an odd looking upload.

General feedback

I've already reviewed several cranks of the Xilinx kernel by Wei-Lin. There haven't been any issues with them. I trust Wei-Lin to handle the uploads on his own.

Specific Experiences of working together

I collaborated with Wei-Lin during his kernel crank tasks. He was always careful with his work and asked questions quickly when something wasn’t clear. Over time, he has taken ownership of Xilinx projects and has become highly familiar with the process.

General feedback

The kernel packages of Wei-Lin's that I have reviewed were prepared with care. For the one issue we ran into, Wei-Lin quickly understood and resolved it. Given my experience with his packaging, the variety of experience, and the testimony of others, I fully trust Wei-Lin with kernel package upload rights.
