User:CounterPillow

Hi, I'm a FOSS software developer from Switzerland. I'm versed in C, D, Python, Java and AArch64 assembly.

You can contact me under CounterPillow on the PINE64 IRC or Discord, or through the e-mail listed on my GitHub profile.

What Am I Working On?

This is a list of stuff I'm currently somewhat sometimes working on. You can support my bad life decisions through GitHub Sponsors.

Currently Working On

• Plebian: I'm maintaining an automated pipeline to generate Debian images for Quartz64/SOQuartz devices.
• rkdjpeg driver: I'm writing a driver to use the hardware JPEG decoding on RK35xx chips from Rockchip. It's currently quite early stages and I don't work on it very often.
• i2s-tdm driver: I'm the maintainer for this driver in mainline.

Interested In Working On

• The panvk stuff (Vulkan for the Panfrost driver) could be fun to work on, but I've never written GPU drivers and I've never written a Vulkan application before (though I do have OpenGL experience).
• A mainline rkvdec2 driver, but this is way above my head.
• Mainlining the RK3588 HDMI RX driver, because having HDMI input is cool.
• An rkvenc driver, but again, way above my head.
