[Lustre-devel] Interested in contributing to Lustre

[twanjari at andrew.cmu.edu]

Hi all,

I am a grad student at Carnegie Mellon University. I had my course work in
advanced storage systems in previous semester, and I am interested to work
on Lustre. I prefer to take up a project that could be completed in a
duration of a month or two.

Since I am a novice w.r.t. my familiarity with Lustre code base, I seek
your opinion to choose a project from the list:
http://wiki.lustre.org/index.php/Lustre_Project_List

My preferences (in order) are:
1. fallocate() API - https://bugzilla.lustre.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15064
2. kernel patch removal - https://bugzilla.lustre.org/show_bug.cgi?id=21524
3. ioctl() number cleanups -
https://bugzilla.lustre.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20731
I am also open to other suggestion.

Any suggestions regarding code walkthrough or documentation to help
ramping up are also welcome.

Thanks,
Tejas Wanjari
