      net: Protect iterations over net::fib_notifier_ops in fib_seq_sum() · 11bf284f
      Kirill Tkhai 提交于
      There is at least unlocked deletion of net->ipv4.fib_notifier_ops
      from net::fib_notifier_ops:
      
      ip_fib_net_exit()
        rtnl_unlock()
        fib4_notifier_exit()
          fib_notifier_ops_unregister(net->ipv4.notifier_ops)
            list_del_rcu(&ops->list)
      
      So fib_seq_sum() can't use rtnl_lock() only for protection.
      
      The possible solution could be to use rtnl_lock()
      in fib_notifier_ops_unregister(), but this adds
      a possible delay during net namespace creation,
      so we better use rcu_read_lock() till someone
      really needs the mutex (if that happens).

      tipc: improve link resiliency when rps is activated · 8d6e79d3
      Jon Maloy 提交于
      Currently, the TIPC RPS dissector is based only on the incoming packets'
      source node address, hence steering all traffic from a node to the same
      core. We have seen that this makes the links vulnerable to starvation
      and unnecessary resets when we turn down the link tolerance to very low
      values.
      
      To reduce the risk of this happening, we exempt probe and probe replies
      packets from the convergence to one core per source node. Instead, we do
      the opposite, - we try to diverge those packets across as many cores as
      possible, by randomizing the flow selector key.
      
      To make such packets identifiable to the dissector, we add a new
      'is_keepalive' bit to word 0 of the LINK_PROTOCOL header. This bit is
      set both for PROBE and PROBE_REPLY messages, and only for those.
      
      It should be noted that these packets are not part of any flow anyway,
      and only constitute a minuscule fraction of all packets sent across a
      link. Hence, there is no risk that this will affect overall performance.

      pktgen: document 32-bit timestamp overflow · 7f5d3f27
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      Timestamps in pktgen are currently retrieved using the deprecated
      do_gettimeofday() function that wraps its signed 32-bit seconds in 2038
      (on 32-bit architectures) and requires a division operation to calculate
      microseconds.
      
      The pktgen header is also defined with the same limitations, hardcoding
      to a 32-bit seconds field that can be interpreted as unsigned to produce
      times that only wrap in 2106. Whatever code reads the timestamps should
      be aware of that problem in general, but probably doesn't care too
      much as we are mostly interested in the time passing between packets,
      and that is correctly represented.
      
      Using 64-bit nanoseconds would be cheaper and good for 584 years. Using
      monotonic times would also make this unambiguous by avoiding the overflow,
      but would make it harder to correlate to the times with those on remote
      machines. Either approach would require adding a new runtime flag and
      implementing the same thing on the remote side, which we probably don't
      want to do unless someone sees it as a real problem. Also, this should
      be coordinated with other pktgen implementations and might need a new
      magic number.
      
      For the moment, I'm documenting the overflow in the source code, and
      changing the implementation over to an open-coded ktime_get_real_ts64()
      plus division, so we don't have to look at it again while scanning for
      deprecated time interfaces.

      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.
