Welcome. I am a software engineer focused on reliable backend infrastructure, operating system interfaces, and network performance. This site is a modest repository for technical notes and work-in-progress findings.
Technical Notes
-
October 14, 2026Zero-Copy Buffer Pipelines in Linux
Tracing how
splice()and circular ring buffers eliminate redundant kernel-to-userspace copies when piping streaming data between sockets and block devices. -
September 28, 2026Deterministic State Machines for Stream Protocols
Structuring connection handshakes as pure state transitions. Keeping I/O scheduling outside the core protocol logic simplifies reproducible testing under synthetic packet loss.
-
August 19, 2026POSIX Clocks and Clock Slew Considerations
Comparing
CLOCK_MONOTONICwithCLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAWwhen measuring sub-millisecond latency during NTP frequency adjustments.
Current Reading
Recently re-reading parts of The Design of the UNIX Operating System by Maurice Bach and exploring recent developments in Linux eBPF observability tooling.
