Introduction

Born in August 2000, Korea.
I love the Linux kernel and FOSS.

Recently graduated from Chungnam National University (Feb. 2025).

Currently I am:

  • A Linux Kernel Developer (MM) @ Oracle
  • An Official Reviewer for Linux Kernel Slab & Reverse Mapping Subsystems

My contributions to the Linux kernel

As Harry Yoo
As Hyeonggon Yoo (before joining Oracle)

As you can see, I spend most of my time reviewing patches but I'm also working on cool projects!

A few internships I've done before graduating university

  • Software Engineering Intern @ SK Hynix (Dec. 2024 ~ Jan. 2025)
    • Worked on software solutions for CXL-based heterogeneous memory systems.
  • Security SW Engineering Intern @ NVIDIA (Jun. 2024 ~ Nov. 2024)
    • Worked on enabling OP-TEE on new NVIDIA products.
    • Investigated issues with Rust integration on existing C++ projects for Secure Element.
  • Software Engineering Intern @ Panmnesia (Sep. 2023 ~ Dec. 2023)

Topics that I'm interested in:

  • Linux
    • BPF/Perf (System Performance Analysis)
    • Memory Management Subsystem
    • Linux's Slab allocator (aka. SLUB)
  • Computer Architecture
  • Virtualization
  • Algorithm

Mottos

  • Read a lot, think a lot
  • Learn from others
  • Start small
  • Be good to others and myself
