      License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license · b2441318
      Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于
      Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
      makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
      
      By default all files without license information are under the default
      license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
      
      Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
      SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
      shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
      
      This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
      Philippe Ombredanne.
      
      How this work was done:
      
      Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
      the use cases:
       - file had no licensing information it it.
       - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
       - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
      
      Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
      where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
      had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
      
      The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
      a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
      output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
      tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
      base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
      
      The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
      assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
      results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
      to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
      immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
      Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
       - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
       - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
         lines of source
       - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
         lines).
      
      All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
      
      The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
      identifiers to apply.
      
       - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
         considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
         COPYING file license applied.
      
         For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|-------
         GPL-2.0                                              11139
      
         and resulted in the first patch in this series.
      
         If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
         Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|-------
         GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930
      
         and resulted in the second patch in this series.
      
       - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
         of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
         any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
         it (per prior point).  Results summary:
      
         SPDX license identifier                            # files
         ---------------------------------------------------|------
         GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
         GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
         LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
         GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
         ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
         LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
         LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
         ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1
      
         and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
      
       - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
         the concluded license(s).
      
       - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
         license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
         licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
      
       - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
         resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
         which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
      
       - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
         confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
       - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
         the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
         in time.
      
      In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
      spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
      source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
      by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
      
      Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
      FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
      disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
      Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
      they are related.
      
      Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
      for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
      files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
      in about 15000 files.
      
      In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
      copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
      correct identifier.
      
      Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
      inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
      version early this week with:
       - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
         license ids and scores
       - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
         files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
       - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
         was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
         SPDX license was correct
      
      This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
      worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
      different types of files to be modified.
      
      These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
      parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
      format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
      based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
      distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
      comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
      generate the patches.

      atomic64: no need for CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ATOMIC64_DEC_IF_POSITIVE · 51a02124
      Vineet Gupta 提交于
      This came to light when implementing native 64-bit atomics for ARCv2.
      
      The atomic64 self-test code uses CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_ATOMIC64_DEC_IF_POSITIVE
      to check whether atomic64_dec_if_positive() is available.  It seems it
      was needed when not every arch defined it.  However as of current code
      the Kconfig option seems needless
      
       - for CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64 it is auto-enabled in lib/Kconfig and a
         generic definition of API is present lib/atomic64.c
       - arches with native 64-bit atomics select it in arch/*/Kconfig and
         define the API in their headers
      
      So I see no point in keeping the Kconfig option
      
      Compile tested for:
       - blackfin (CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64)
       - x86 (!CONFIG_GENERIC_ATOMIC64)
       - ia64

      mm/usercopy: get rid of CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS · 0d025d27
      Josh Poimboeuf 提交于
      There are three usercopy warnings which are currently being silenced for
      gcc 4.6 and newer:
      
      1) "copy_from_user() buffer size is too small" compile warning/error
      
         This is a static warning which happens when object size and copy size
         are both const, and copy size > object size.  I didn't see any false
         positives for this one.  So the function warning attribute seems to
         be working fine here.
      
         Note this scenario is always a bug and so I think it should be
         changed to *always* be an error, regardless of
         CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS.
      
      2) "copy_from_user() buffer size is not provably correct" compile warning
      
         This is another static warning which happens when I enable
         __compiletime_object_size() for new compilers (and
         CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS).  It happens when object size
         is const, but copy size is *not*.  In this case there's no way to
         compare the two at build time, so it gives the warning.  (Note the
         warning is a byproduct of the fact that gcc has no way of knowing
         whether the overflow function will be called, so the call isn't dead
         code and the warning attribute is activated.)
      
         So this warning seems to only indicate "this is an unusual pattern,
         maybe you should check it out" rather than "this is a bug".
      
         I get 102(!) of these warnings with allyesconfig and the
         __compiletime_object_size() gcc check removed.  I don't know if there
         are any real bugs hiding in there, but from looking at a small
         sample, I didn't see any.  According to Kees, it does sometimes find
         real bugs.  But the false positive rate seems high.
      
      3) "Buffer overflow detected" runtime warning
      
         This is a runtime warning where object size is const, and copy size >
         object size.
      
      All three warnings (both static and runtime) were completely disabled
      for gcc 4.6 with the following commit:
      
        2fb0815c ("gcc4: disable __compiletime_object_size for GCC 4.6+")
      
      That commit mistakenly assumed that the false positives were caused by a
      gcc bug in __compiletime_object_size().  But in fact,
      __compiletime_object_size() seems to be working fine.  The false
      positives were instead triggered by #2 above.  (Though I don't have an
      explanation for why the warnings supposedly only started showing up in
      gcc 4.6.)
      
      So remove warning #2 to get rid of all the false positives, and re-enable
      warnings #1 and #3 by reverting the above commit.
      
      Furthermore, since #1 is a real bug which is detected at compile time,
      upgrade it to always be an error.
      
      Having done all that, CONFIG_DEBUG_STRICT_USER_COPY_CHECKS is no longer
      needed.

      printk/nmi: generic solution for safe printk in NMI · 42a0bb3f
      Petr Mladek 提交于
      printk() takes some locks and could not be used a safe way in NMI
      context.
      
      The chance of a deadlock is real especially when printing stacks from
      all CPUs.  This particular problem has been addressed on x86 by the
      commit a9edc880 ("x86/nmi: Perform a safe NMI stack trace on all
      CPUs").
      
      The patchset brings two big advantages.  First, it makes the NMI
      backtraces safe on all architectures for free.  Second, it makes all NMI
      messages almost safe on all architectures (the temporary buffer is
      limited.  We still should keep the number of messages in NMI context at
      minimum).
      
      Note that there already are several messages printed in NMI context:
      WARN_ON(in_nmi()), BUG_ON(in_nmi()), anything being printed out from MCE
      handlers.  These are not easy to avoid.
      
      This patch reuses most of the code and makes it generic.  It is useful
      for all messages and architectures that support NMI.
      
      The alternative printk_func is set when entering and is reseted when
      leaving NMI context.  It queues IRQ work to copy the messages into the
      main ring buffer in a safe context.
      
      __printk_nmi_flush() copies all available messages and reset the buffer.
      Then we could use a simple cmpxchg operations to get synchronized with
      writers.  There is also used a spinlock to get synchronized with other
      flushers.
      
      We do not longer use seq_buf because it depends on external lock.  It
      would be hard to make all supported operations safe for a lockless use.
      It would be confusing and error prone to make only some operations safe.
      
      The code is put into separate printk/nmi.c as suggested by Steven
      Rostedt.  It needs a per-CPU buffer and is compiled only on
      architectures that call nmi_enter().  This is achieved by the new
      HAVE_NMI Kconfig flag.
      
      The are MN10300 and Xtensa architectures.  We need to clean up NMI
      handling there first.  Let's do it separately.
      
      The patch is heavily based on the draft from Peter Zijlstra, see

      kexec: split kexec_load syscall from kexec core code · 2965faa5
      Dave Young 提交于
      There are two kexec load syscalls, kexec_load another and kexec_file_load.
       kexec_file_load has been splited as kernel/kexec_file.c.  In this patch I
      split kexec_load syscall code to kernel/kexec.c.
      
      And add a new kconfig option KEXEC_CORE, so we can disable kexec_load and
      use kexec_file_load only, or vice verse.
      
      The original requirement is from Ted Ts'o, he want kexec kernel signature
      being checked with CONFIG_KEXEC_VERIFY_SIG enabled.  But kexec-tools use
      kexec_load syscall can bypass the checking.
      
      Vivek Goyal proposed to create a common kconfig option so user can compile
      in only one syscall for loading kexec kernel.  KEXEC/KEXEC_FILE selects
      KEXEC_CORE so that old config files still work.
      
      Because there's general code need CONFIG_KEXEC_CORE, so I updated all the
      architecture Kconfig with a new option KEXEC_CORE, and let KEXEC selects
      KEXEC_CORE in arch Kconfig.  Also updated general kernel code with to
      kexec_load syscall.

      EDAC: Cleanup atomic_scrub mess · b01aec9b
      Borislav Petkov 提交于
      So first of all, this atomic_scrub() function's naming is bad. It looks
      like an atomic_t helper. Change it to edac_atomic_scrub().
      
      The bigger problem is that this function is arch-specific and every new
      arch which doesn't necessarily need that functionality still needs to
      define it, otherwise EDAC doesn't compile.
      
      So instead of doing that and including arch-specific headers, have each
      arch define an EDAC_ATOMIC_SCRUB symbol which can be used in edac_mc.c
      for ifdeffery. Much cleaner.
      
      And we already are doing this with another symbol - EDAC_SUPPORT. This
      is also much cleaner than having CONFIG_EDAC enumerate all the arches
      which need/have EDAC support and drivers.
      
      This way I can kill the useless edac.h header in tile too.

      tile: improve stack backtrace · 47ad7b9b
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      This commit fixes a number of issues with the tile backtrace code.
      
      - Don't try to identify userspace shared object or executable paths
        if we are doing a backtrace from an interrupt; it's not legal,
        and also unlikely to be interesting.  Likewise, don't try to do
        it for other address spaces, since d_path() assumes it is being
        called in "current" context.
      
      - Move "in_backtrace" from thread_struct to thread_info.
        This way we can access it even if our stack thread_info has been
        clobbered, which makes backtracing more robust.
      
      - Avoid using "current" directly when testing for is_sigreturn().
        Since "current" may be corrupt, we're better off using kbt->task
        explicitly to look up the vdso_base for the current task.
        Conveniently, this simplifies the internal APIs (we only need
        one is_sigreturn() function now).
      
      - Avoid bogus "Odd fault" warning when pc/sp/ex1 are all zero,
        as is true for kernel threads above the last frame.
      
      - Hook into Tejun Heo's dump_stack() framework in lib/dump_stack.c.
      
      - Write last entry in save_stack_trace() as ULONG_MAX, not zero,
        since ftrace (at least) relies on finding that marker.
      
      - Implement save_stack_trace_regs() and save_strack_trace_user(),
        and set CONFIG_USER_STACKTRACE_SUPPORT.

      kexec: load and relocate purgatory at kernel load time · 12db5562
      Vivek Goyal 提交于
      Load purgatory code in RAM and relocate it based on the location.
      Relocation code has been inspired by module relocation code and purgatory
      relocation code in kexec-tools.
      
      Also compute the checksums of loaded kexec segments and store them in
      purgatory.
      
      Arch independent code provides this functionality so that arch dependent
      bootloaders can make use of it.
      
      Helper functions are provided to get/set symbol values in purgatory which
      are used by bootloaders later to set things like stack and entry point of
      second kernel etc.

      tile: remove support for TILE64 · d7c96611
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      This chip is no longer being actively developed for (it was superceded
      by the TILEPro64 in 2008), and in any case the existing compiler and
      toolchain in the community do not support it.  It's unlikely that the
      kernel works with TILE64 at this point as the configuration has not been
      tested in years.  The support is also awkward as it requires maintaining
      a significant number of ifdefs.  So, just remove it altogether.

      Allow enabling frame pointer support; this makes it easier to hook
      into the various kernel features that claim they require it without
      having to add Kconfig conditionals everywhere (a la mips, ppc, s390,
      and microblaze).  When enabled, it basically eliminates leaf functions
      as such, and stops optimizing tail and sibling calls.  It adds around
      3% to the size of the kernel when enabled.
