Hi,

I’m interested in this project. As a personal exercise, I’ve
implemented a custom PID syscall in the Linux kernel. Link:

If there's a binary that isn’t running, I’d be happy to analyze
missing syscalls and implement one as a contribution/task for GSoC.

I’ve participated in the Linux Kernel Bug Fixing Program and have 7
patches merged into the mainline. Link:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/log/?qt=grep&q=Abinash+Singh
I’m new to NetBSD, but I’m excited to explore and contribute.

Also, I’d appreciate knowing whether you already have strong
candidates for this project.

Thanks.
