Figuring Things Out

Well, Monday I began my summer internship with the Solaris Kernel Group at Sun. Thus far things seem to be going pretty well - I've fixed one bug in the shutdown code (my changes are still uncommitted). I'm also working on a related race condition in the same section of code. I'm doing these small bug fixes as a way to learn the basics of the build system and such - so far I've learned how to build, how to update a running system, the basics of mdb (which I'm enjoying - more on that later, perhaps), and some DTrace basics. I have yet to pick an overarching summer project, though I'm leaning strongly towards working on something related to Solaris Zones.
