Pull misc vfs updates from Christian Brauner:
"Misc features, cleanups, and fixes for vfs and individual filesystems.
Features:
- Support idmapped mounts for hugetlbfs.
- Add RWF_NOAPPEND flag for pwritev2(). This allows us to fix a bug
where the passed offset is ignored if the file is O_APPEND. The new
flag allows a caller to enforce that the offset is honored to
conform to posix even if the file was opened in append mode.
- Move i_mmap_rwsem in struct address_space to avoid false sharing
between i_mmap and i_mmap_rwsem.
- Convert efs, qnx4, and coda to use the new mount api.
- Add a generic is_dot_dotdot() helper that's used by various
filesystems and the VFS code instead of open-coding it multiple
times.
- Recently we've added stable offsets which allows stable ordering
when iterating directories exported through NFS on e.g., tmpfs
filesystems. Originally an xarray was used for the offset map but
that caused slab fragmentation issues over time. This switches the
offset map to the maple tree which has a dense mode that handles
this scenario a lot better. Includes tests.
- Finally merge the case-insensitive improvement series Gabriel has
been working on for a long time. This cleanly propagates case
insensitive operations through ->s_d_op which in turn allows us to
remove the quite ugly generic_set_encrypted_ci_d_ops() operations.
It also improves performance by trying a case-sensitive comparison
first and then fallback to case-insensitive lookup if that fails.
This also fixes a bug where overlayfs would be able to be mounted
over a case insensitive directory which would lead to all sort of
odd behaviors.
Cleanups:
- Make file_dentry() a simple accessor now that ->d_real() is
simplified because of the backing file work we did the last two
cycles.
- Use the dedicated file_mnt_idmap helper in ntfs3.
- Use smp_load_acquire/store_release() in the i_size_read/write
helpers and thus remove the hack to handle i_size reads in the
filemap code.
- The SLAB_MEM_SPREAD is a nop now. Remove it from various places in
fs/
- It's no longer necessary to perform a second built-in initramfs
unpack call because we retain the contents of the previous
extraction. Remove it.
- Now that we have removed various allocators kfree_rcu() always
works with kmem caches and kmalloc(). So simplify various places
that only use an rcu callback in order to handle the kmem cache
case.
- Convert the pipe code to use a lockdep comparison function instead
of open-coding the nesting making lockdep validation easier.
- Move code into fs-writeback.c that was located in a header but can
be made static as it's only used in that one file.
- Rewrite the alignment checking iterators for iovec and bvec to be
easier to read, and also significantly more compact in terms of
generated code. This saves 270 bytes of text on x86-64 (with
clang-18) and 224 bytes on arm64 (with gcc-13). In profiles it also
saves a bit of time for the same workload.
- Switch various places to use KMEM_CACHE instead of
kmem_cache_create().
- Use inode_set_ctime_to_ts() in inode_set_ctime_current()
- Use kzalloc() in name_to_handle_at() to avoid kernel infoleak.
- Various smaller cleanups for eventfds.
Fixes:
- Fix various comments and typos, and unneeded initializations.
- Fix stack allocation hack for clang in the select code.
- Improve dump_mapping() debug code on a best-effort basis.
- Fix build errors in various selftests.
- Avoid wrap-around instrumentation in various places.
- Don't allow user namespaces without an idmapping to be used for
idmapped mounts.
- Fix sysv sb_read() call.
- Fix fallback implementation of the get_name() export operation"

Pull KUnit updates from Shuah Khan:
- fix to make kunit_bus_type const
- kunit tool change to Print UML command
- DRM device creation helpers are now using the new kunit device
creation helpers. This change resulted in DRM helpers switching from
using a platform_device, to a dedicated bus and device type used by
kunit. kunit devices don't set DMA mask and this caused regression on
some drm tests as they can't allocate DMA buffers. Fix this problem
by setting DMA masks on the kunit device during initialization.
- KUnit has several macros which accept a log message, which can
contain printf format specifiers. Some of these (the explicit log
macros) already use the __printf() gcc attribute to ensure the format
specifiers are valid, but those which could fail the test, and hence
used __kunit_do_failed_assertion() behind the scenes, did not.
These include: KUNIT_EXPECT_*_MSG(), KUNIT_ASSERT_*_MSG(), and
KUNIT_FAIL()
A nine-patch series adds the __printf() attribute, and fixes all of
the issues uncovered.

This flag is only set by one single user: the magical core dumping code
that looks up user pages one by one, and then writes them out using
their kernel addresses (by using a BVEC_ITER).
That actually ends up being a huge problem, because while we do use
copy_mc_to_kernel() for this case and it is able to handle the possible
machine checks involved, nothing else is really ready to handle the
failures caused by the machine check.
In particular, as reported by Tong Tiangen, we don't actually support
fault_in_iov_iter_readable() on a machine check area.
As a result, the usual logic for writing things to a file under a
filesystem lock, which involves doing a copy with page faults disabled
and then if that fails trying to fault pages in without holding the
locks with fault_in_iov_iter_readable() does not work at all.
We could decide to always just make the MC copy "succeed" (and filling
the destination with zeroes), and that would then create a core dump
file that just ignores any machine checks.
But honestly, this single special case has been problematic before, and
means that all the normal iov_iter code ends up slightly more complex
and slower.
See for example commit c9eec08bac ("iov_iter: Don't deal with
iter->copy_mc in memcpy_from_iter_mc()") where David Howells
re-organized the code just to avoid having to check the 'copy_mc' flags
inside the inner iov_iter loops.
So considering that we have exactly one user, and that one user is a
non-critical special case that doesn't actually ever trigger in real
life (Tong found this with manual error injection), the sane solution is
to just decide that the onus on handling the machine check lines on that
user instead.
Ergo, do the copy_mc_to_kernel() in the core dump logic itself, copying
the user data to a stable kernel page before writing it out.

Commit d393acce7b ("drm/tests: Switch to kunit devices") switched the
DRM device creation helpers from an ad-hoc implementation to the new
kunit device creation helpers introduced in commit d03c720e03 ("kunit:
Add APIs for managing devices").
However, while the DRM helpers were using a platform_device, the kunit
helpers are using a dedicated bus and device type.
That situation creates small differences in the initialisation, and one
of them is that the kunit devices do not have the DMA masks setup. In
turn, this means that we can't do any kind of DMA buffer allocation
anymore, which creates a regression on some (downstream for now) tests.
Let's set up a default DMA mask that should work on any platform to fix
it.

By allowing the filter_glob parameter to be written to, it's possible to
tweak the testsuites that will be executed on new module loads. This
makes it easier to run specific tests without having to reload kunit and
provides a way to filter tests on real HW even if kunit is builtin.
Example for xe driver:
1) Run just 1 test
# echo -n xe_bo > /sys/module/kunit/parameters/filter_glob
# modprobe -r xe_live_test
# modprobe xe_live_test
# ls /sys/kernel/debug/kunit/
xe_bo
2) Run all tests
# echo \* > /sys/module/kunit/parameters/filter_glob
# modprobe -r xe_live_test
# modprobe xe_live_test
# ls /sys/kernel/debug/kunit/
xe_bo xe_dma_buf xe_migrate xe_mocs
For completeness and to cover other use cases, also change filter and
filter_action to rw.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Fix the #ifndef that didn't have the 'CONFIG_' prefix on
HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS
The fix to have dynamic trampolines work with x86 broke arm64 as the
config used in the #ifdef was HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS and not
CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS which removed the fix that the
previous fix was to fix.
- Fix tracing_on state
The code to test if "tracing_on" is set incorrectly used
ring_buffer_record_is_on() which returns false if the ring buffer
isn't able to be written to.
But the ring buffer disable has several bits that disable it. One is
internal disabling which is used for resizing and other modifications
of the ring buffer. But the "tracing_on" user space visible flag
should only report if tracing is actually on and not internally
disabled, as this can cause confusion as writing "1" when it is
disabled will not enable it.
Instead use ring_buffer_record_is_set_on() which shows the user space
visible settings.
- Fix a false positive kmemleak on saved cmdlines
Now that the saved_cmdlines structure is allocated via alloc_page()
and not via kmalloc() it has become invisible to kmemleak. The
allocation done to one of its pointers was flagged as a dangling
allocation leak. Make kmemleak aware of this allocation and free.

With the introduction of the pool_rwlock (reader-writer lock), several
fast paths end up taking the pool_rwlock as readers. Furthermore,
stack_depot_put() unconditionally takes the pool_rwlock as a writer.
Despite allowing readers to make forward-progress concurrently,
reader-writer locks have inherent cache contention issues, which does not
scale well on systems with large CPU counts.
Rework the synchronization story of stack depot to again avoid taking any
locks in the fast paths. This is done by relying on RCU-protected list
traversal, and the NMI-safe subset of RCU to delay reuse of freed stack
records. See code comments for more details.
Along with the performance issues, this also fixes incorrect nesting of
rwlock within a raw_spinlock, given that stack depot should still be
usable from anywhere:
| [ BUG: Invalid wait context ]
| -----------------------------
| swapper/0/1 is trying to lock:
| ffffffff89869be8 (pool_rwlock){..--}-{3:3}, at: stack_depot_save_flags
| other info that might help us debug this:
| context-{5:5}
| 2 locks held by swapper/0/1:
| #0: ffffffff89632440 (rcu_read_lock){....}-{1:3}, at: __queue_work
| #1: ffff888100092018 (&pool->lock){-.-.}-{2:2}, at: __queue_work <-- raw_spin_lock
Stack depot usage stats are similar to the previous version after a KASAN
kernel boot:
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/stackdepot/stats
pools: 838
allocations: 29865
frees: 6604
in_use: 23261
freelist_size: 1879
The number of pools is the same as previously. The freelist size is
minimally larger, but this may also be due to variance across system
boots. This shows that even though we do not eagerly wait for the next
RCU grace period (such as with synchronize_rcu() or call_rcu()) after
freeing a stack record - requiring depot_pop_free() to "poll" if an entry
may be used - new allocations are very likely to happen in later RCU grace
periods.

Add a few basic stats counters for stack depot that can be used to derive
if stack depot is working as intended. This is a snapshot of the new
stats after booting a system with a KASAN-enabled kernel:
$ cat /sys/kernel/debug/stackdepot/stats
pools: 838
allocations: 29861
frees: 6561
in_use: 23300
freelist_size: 1840
Generally, "pools" should be well below the max; once the system is
booted, "in_use" should remain relatively steady.

Rewrite the alignment checking iterators for iovec and bvec to be easier
to read, and also significantly more compact in terms of generated code.
This saves 270 bytes of text on x86-64 for me (with clang-18) and 224
bytes on arm64 (with gcc-13).
In profiles, also saves a bit of time as well for the same workload:
0.81% -0.18% [kernel.vmlinux] [k] iov_iter_aligned_bvec
0.48% -0.09% [kernel.vmlinux] [k] iov_iter_is_aligned
which is a nice side benefit as well.

v2: do the other half of the iterators too, as suggested by Keith.
This further saves some text.
The modules are being moved from lib/livepatch to
tools/testing/selftests/livepatch/test_modules.
This code moving will allow writing more complex tests, like for example an
userspace C code that will call a livepatched kernel function.
The modules are now built as out-of-tree
modules, but being part of the kernel source means they will be maintained.
Another advantage of the code moving is to be able to easily change,
debug and rebuild the tests by running make on the selftests/livepatch
directory, which is not currently possible since the modules on
lib/livepatch are build and installed using the "modules" target.
The current approach also keeps the ability to execute the tests manually
by executing the scripts inside selftests/livepatch directory, as it's
currently supported. If the modules are modified, they needed to be
rebuilt before running the scripts though.
The modules are built before running the selftests when using the
kselftest invocations:
make kselftest TARGETS=livepatch
or
make -C tools/testing/selftests/livepatch run_tests
Having the modules being built as out-of-modules requires changing the
currently used 'modprobe' by 'insmod' and adapt the test scripts that
check for the kernel message buffer.
Now it is possible to only compile the modules by running:
make -C tools/testing/selftests/livepatch/
This way the test modules and other test program can be built in order
to be packaged if so desired.
As there aren't any modules being built on lib/livepatch, remove the
TEST_LIVEPATCH Kconfig and it's references.
Note: "make gen_tar" packages the pre-built binaries into the tarball.
It means that it will store the test modules pre-built for
the kernel running on the build host.
Note that these modules need not binary compatible with
the kernel built from the same sources. But the same
is true for other packaged selftest binaries.
The entire kernel sources are needed for rebuilding
the selftests on another system.

Commit 2810c1e998 ("kunit: Fix wild-memory-access bug in
kunit_free_suite_set()") fixed a wild-memory-access bug that could have
happened during the loading phase of test suites built and executed as
loadable modules. However, it also introduced a problematic side effect
that causes test suites modules to crash when they attempt to register
fake devices.
When a module is loaded, it traverses the MODULE_STATE_UNFORMED and
MODULE_STATE_COMING states before reaching the normal operating state
MODULE_STATE_LIVE. Finally, when the module is removed, it moves to
MODULE_STATE_GOING before being released. However, if the loading
function load_module() fails between complete_formation() and
do_init_module(), the module goes directly from MODULE_STATE_COMING to
MODULE_STATE_GOING without passing through MODULE_STATE_LIVE.
This behavior was causing kunit_module_exit() to be called without
having first executed kunit_module_init(). Since kunit_module_exit() is
responsible for freeing the memory allocated by kunit_module_init()
through kunit_filter_suites(), this behavior was resulting in a
wild-memory-access bug.
Commit 2810c1e998 ("kunit: Fix wild-memory-access bug in
kunit_free_suite_set()") fixed this issue by running the tests when the
module is still in MODULE_STATE_COMING. However, modules in that state
are not fully initialized, lacking sysfs kobjects. Therefore, if a test
module attempts to register a fake device, it will inevitably crash.
This patch proposes a different approach to fix the original
wild-memory-access bug while restoring the normal module execution flow
by making kunit_module_exit() able to detect if kunit_module_init() has
previously initialized the tests suite set. In this way, test modules
can once again register fake devices without crashing.
This behavior is achieved by checking whether mod->kunit_suites is a
virtual or direct mapping address. If it is a virtual address, then
kunit_module_init() has allocated the suite_set in kunit_filter_suites()
using kmalloc_array(). On the contrary, if mod->kunit_suites is still
pointing to the original address that was set when looking up the
.kunit_test_suites section of the module, then the loading phase has
failed and there's no memory to be freed.
v4:
- rebased on 6.8
- noted that kunit_filter_suites() must return a virtual address
v3:
- add a comment to clarify why the start address is checked
v2:
- add include <linux/mm.h>

Pull CXL (Compute Express Link) updates from Dan Williams:
"The bulk of this update is support for enumerating the performance
capabilities of CXL memory targets and connecting that to a platform
CXL memory QoS class. Some follow-on work remains to hook up this data

The next significant update is unifying how CXL event records (things
like background scrub errors) are processed between so called
"firmware first" and native error record retrieval. The CXL driver
handler that processes the record retrieved from the device mailbox is
now the handler for that same record format coming from an EFI/ACPI

Fangrui noted that the comment around CONFIG_AS_HAS_NON_CONST_LEB128
could be made more accurate because explicit .sleb128 directives are not
emitted, only .uleb128 directives are. Rename the symbol to
CONFIG_AS_HAS_NON_CONST_ULEB128 as a result.
Further clarifications include replacing "symbol deltas" with the more
accurate "label differences", noting that this issue has been resolved
in newer binutils (2.41+), and it only occurs when a port uses RISC-V
style linker relaxation.

LLVM prior to 18.0.0 would generate incorrect debug info for DWARF5 due
to linker relaxation, which was worked around in clang by defaulting
RISC-V to DWARF4 [1]. Unfortunately, this workaround does not work for
the kernel because the DWARF version can be independently changed from
the default in Kconfig.
Do not allow DWARF5 to be selected for RISC-V when using linker
relaxation (ld.lld >= 15.0.0) and a version of LLVM that does not have
the fixes (the integrated assembler [2] and ld.lld [3] < 18.0.0)
necessary to generate the correct debug info.

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"The most interesting thing is probably the networking structs
reorganization and a significant amount of changes is around
self-tests.
Core & protocols:
- Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev,
netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up build
time warnings to safeguard against future header changes
This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections up
to 40%
- Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the memory
usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify bad PP users and
possible leaks
- Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even
source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set. This
lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having many active
connections to the same destination
- Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket
structs
- Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to allow
arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF
- Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value to
128KB and namespecifying it
- Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving
RX performances with some common configurations
- Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time
- Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to
request the deletion of matching entries
- Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the
datapath first
- Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting
multicast-like behavior at the TC layer
- Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and
classifiers (RSVP and tcindex)
- More data-race annotations
- Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets
- Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions
- Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form
a sub-network using a specific PAN ID
- Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support
- Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type
BPF:
- Tons of verifier improvements:
- BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large
test suite
- log improvements
- complete precision tracking support for register spills
- track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers.
This improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from
single digit to 50-60% for some programs
- support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few
commonly requested annotations for a better developer
experience
- support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler
transforms (unsigned) "a > 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the
like
- several fixes
- Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in
mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right
now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload
- Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into
kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows
BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y
- Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily
instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be
guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques
- Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs
- Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task
within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is
identified by its id
- Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value
field obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in
sched_ext
- Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool
integration for the latter
- Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints
- Remove deprecated bpfilter kernel leftovers given the project is
developed in user-space (https://github.com/facebook/bpfilter)
Misc:
- Support for parellel TC self-tests execution
- Increase MPTCP self-tests coverage
- Updated the bridge documentation, including several so-far
undocumented features
- Convert all the net self-tests to run in unique netns, to avoid
random failures due to conflict and allow concurrent runs
- Add TCP-AO self-tests
- Add kunit tests for both cfg80211 and mac80211
- Autogenerate Netlink families documentation from YAML spec
- Add yml-gen support for fixed headers and recursive nests, the tool
can now generate user-space code for all genetlink families for
which we have specs
- A bunch of additional module descriptions fixes
- Catch incorrect freeing of pages belonging to a page pool
Driver API:
- Rust abstractions for network PHY drivers; do not cover yet the
full C API, but already allow implementing functional PHY drivers
in rust
- Introduce queue and NAPI support in the netdev Netlink interface,
allowing complete access to the device <> NAPIs <> queues
relationship
- Introduce notifications filtering for devlink to allow control
application scale to thousands of instances
- Improve PHY validation, requesting rate matching information for
each ethtool link mode supported by both the PHY and host
- Add support for ethtool symmetric-xor RSS hash

Pull s390 updates from Alexander Gordeev:
- Add machine variable capacity information to /proc/sysinfo.
- Limit the waste of page tables and always align vmalloc area size and
base address on segment boundary.
- Fix a memory leak when an attempt to register interruption sub class
(ISC) for the adjunct-processor (AP) guest failed.
- Reset response code AP_RESPONSE_INVALID_GISA to understandable by
guest AP_RESPONSE_INVALID_ADDRESS in response to a failed
interruption sub class (ISC) registration attempt.
- Improve reaction to adjunct-processor (AP)
AP_RESPONSE_OTHERWISE_CHANGED response code when enabling interrupts
on behalf of a guest.
- Fix incorrect sysfs 'status' attribute of adjunct-processor (AP)
queue device bound to the vfio_ap device driver when the mediated
device is attached to a guest, but the queue device is not passed
through.
- Rework struct ap_card to hold the whole adjunct-processor (AP) card
hardware information. As result, all the ugly bit checks are replaced
by simple evaluations of the required bit fields.
- Improve handling of some weird scenarios between service element (SE)
host and SE guest with adjunct-processor (AP) pass-through support.
- Change local_ctl_set_bit() and local_ctl_clear_bit() so they return
the previous value of the to be changed control register. This is
useful if a bit is only changed temporarily and the previous content
needs to be restored.
- The kernel starts with machine checks disabled and is expected to
enable it once trap_init() is called. However the implementation
allows machine checks early. Consistently enable it in trap_init()
only.
- local_mcck_disable() and local_mcck_enable() assume that machine
checks are always enabled. Instead implement and use
local_mcck_save() and local_mcck_restore() to disable machine checks
and restore the previous state.
- Modification of floating point control (FPC) register of a traced
process using ptrace interface may lead to corruption of the FPC
register of the tracing process. Fix this.
- kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_set_fpu() allows to set the floating point
control (FPC) register in vCPU, but may lead to corruption of the FPC
register of the host process. Fix this.
- Use READ_ONCE() to read a vCPU floating point register value from the
memory mapped area. This avoids that, depending on code generation, a
different value is tested for validity than the one that is used.
- Get rid of test_fp_ctl(), since it is quite subtle to use it
correctly. Instead copy a new floating point control register value
into its save area and test the validity of the new value when
loading it.
- Remove superfluous save_fpu_regs() call.
- Remove s390 support for ARCH_WANTS_DYNAMIC_TASK_STRUCT. All machines
provide the vector facility since many years and the need to make the
task structure size dependent on the vector facility does not exist.
- Remove the "novx" kernel command line option, as the vector code runs
without any problems since many years.
- Add the vector facility to the z13 architecture level set (ALS). All
hypervisors support the vector facility since many years. This allows
compile time optimizations of the kernel.
- Get rid of MACHINE_HAS_VX and replace it with cpu_has_vx(). As
result, the compiled code will have less runtime checks and less
code.
- Convert pgste_get_lock() and pgste_set_unlock() ASM inlines to C.
- Convert the struct subchannel spinlock from pointer to member.

Pull sysctl updates from Luis Chamberlain:
"To help make the move of sysctls out of kernel/sysctl.c not incur a
size penalty sysctl has been changed to allow us to not require the
sentinel, the final empty element on the sysctl array. Joel Granados
has been doing all this work.
In the v6.6 kernel we got the major infrastructure changes required to
support this. For v6.7 we had all arch/ and drivers/ modified to
remove the sentinel. For v6.8-rc1 we get a few more updates for fs/
directory only.
The kernel/ directory is left but we'll save that for v6.9-rc1 as
those patches are still being reviewed. After that we then can expect
also the removal of the no longer needed check for procname == NULL.
Let us recap the purpose of this work:
- this helps reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run
time memory consumed by the kernel by about ~64 bytes per array
- the extra 64-byte penalty is no longer inncurred now when we move
sysctls out from kernel/sysctl.c to their own files
Thomas Weißschuh also sent a few cleanups, for v6.9-rc1 we expect to
see further work by Thomas Weißschuh with the constificatin of the
struct ctl_table.
Due to Joel Granados's work, and to help bring in new blood, I have
suggested for him to become a maintainer and he's accepted. So for
v6.9-rc1 I look forward to seeing him sent you a pull request for
further sysctl changes. This also removes Iurii Zaikin as a maintainer
as he has moved on to other projects and has had no time to help at
all"
