Unmaintained is a name which on multiple occasions have seen lead to confusion with people having the impression that unmaintained is for all unmaintained devices, which is not how we're really using it. Many devices in testing do not actually have a maintainer, yet there has been no push to move these out of there and into unmaintained. I think this is a result of that unmaintained was introduced not to keep unmaintained ports but rather a place to store ports that have a better replacement but where the inferior one still holds some sort of value, such as for debugging purposes. These ports also are not necessarily entirely unmaintained and see more fixes than many ports in testing. While one approach to solving this problem could be to simply moving all unmaintained ports to unmaintained, I think this comes with some problems: It would require an initial effort to figure out which ports are indeed unmaintained and which just don't have a maintained noted in the package, and given how many ports there are in testing this would be a big endeavour. It would also require continuous work on moving ports into unmaintained as the maintainers go silent if we are to keep testing and unmaintained's state consistent with reality. Additionally, just because a port doesn't have a maintainer on paper doens't mean that there aren't people who aren't willing to fix it up if there are issues that arise. As such, I think the way to go is renaming unmaintained to better reflect the original intent. Thanks to Luca Weiss for suggesting "archive", and to Arnav Singh for suggesting that "archived" would match the other category names better.

Subject: [PATCH 4/5] asm-generic: add memfd_create system call to unistd.h
|
|
|
|
Commit 9183df25fe7b ("shm: add memfd_create() syscall") added a new
|
|
system call (memfd_create) but didn't update the asm-generic unistd
|
|
header.
|
|
|
|
This patch adds the new system call to the asm-generic version of
|
|
unistd.h so that it can be used by architectures such as arm64.
