Hi Gedare, Thanks for the feedback. I'll avoid adding links here and just mention the ticket numbers. Regarding the systems related tickets, I looked into #2904 (memory protection) and #2899 (Improving the RPi BSP). It would be great if you can provide some information regarding the status of these projects. I saw that #2904 was addressed in previous GSoC editions and #2899 seems to be inactive since 2017. If any of these is open this year, I am very excited to pursue them.
