Intel is continuing to lay off more Linux maintainers due to corporate restructuring within the company. Phoronix reports that at least four more Intel Linux maintainers have left the company, leaving some of the Linux drivers they worked on without support.
Mustafa Ismail, maintainer of the Intel Ethernet RDMA driver, has left the company, leaving only one other Intel engineer to keep supporting the driver. Intel's Tianfei Zhang, the maintainer for Intel's PTP DFL ToD driver, is also no longer at Intel, leaving the driver without any support. Intel's PTP DFL ToD driver runs the time-of-day device on its FPGA cards.
