Senior🎓
Top SchoolMichael Jeanson is a seasoned Web Developer and Linux systems engineer with 14 years of experience designing, deploying, and maintaining server and storage infrastructures across Ubuntu, Debian, and RHEL/CentOS environments. He specializes in configuration management, automated deployments, clustering, mail-system migrations (notably Zimbra), and Debian packaging, bringing a strong hardware-plus-software perspective to operations. Based in Montreal, he pairs production sysadmin rigor with systems-level programming—evidenced by open-source contributions to the userspace-rcu library at EfficiOS that improved portability and added support for architectures like m68k and RISC-V. His background in electrical engineering and computer science informs a methodical, low-level approach to scalability and cross-platform compatibility.

urcu/userspace-rcu
Jun 2015 - Aug 2022
This repo is a mirror of the official userspace-rcu git found at git://git.lttng.org/userspace-rcu.git. liburcu is a LGPLv2.1 userspace RCU (read-copy-update) library. This data synchronization library provides read-side access which scales linearly with the number of cores.

Contributions summary:Michael's commits primarily involve refactoring and porting the userspace-rcu library, focusing on code modernization and platform compatibility. They replaced deprecated functions like `bzero()` with `memset()` and added support for Solaris and other architectures like m68k and RISC-V. Their contributions also include fixes to the build system to improve portability and ensure the correct output format for TAP tests. This suggests a strong focus on system-level programming and cross-platform development.
