BFQ has been lacking active maintenance for approximately two years, and it was recently transitioned to the Orphan state. However, there are still many users, I have decided to step forward and assume the role of maintainer to ensure continued support and development. While I may not be the one with the most extensive knowledge of BFQ's internals, I have been actively involved in its development since 2021. Moreover, our team continues to rigorously test BFQ in downstream kernels, ensuring it's stability and performance. Despite my confidence to maintain BFQ, I believe it is prudent to classify its state as "Odd Fixes" to accurately reflect my relatively new position as the maintainer. By assuming this responsibility, I am committed to providing the necessary support and addressing any issues that may arise with BFQ. As time progresses, we will reassess the situation and determine the appropriate state.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
