      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.

      GFS2: Add origin indicator to glock demote tracing · 7bd8b2eb
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      This adds the origin indicator to the trace point for glock
      demotion, so that it is possible to see where demote requests
      have come from.
      
      Note that requests generated from the demote_rq sysfs interface
      will show as remote, since they are intended to replicate
      exactly the effect of a demote reuqest from a remote node. It
      is still possible to tell these apart by looking at the process
      which initiated the demote request.

      GFS2: Improve block reservation tracing · 9e733d39
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      This patch improves the tracing of block reservations by
      removing some corner cases and also providing more useful
      detail in the traces.
      
      A new field is added to the reservation structure to contain
      the inode number. This is used since in certain contexts it is
      not possible to access the inode itself to obtain this information.
      As a result we can then display the inode number for all tracepoints
      and also in case we dump the resource group.
      
      The "del" tracepoint operation has been removed. This could be called
      with the reservation rgrp set to NULL. That resulted in not printing
      the device number, and thus making the information largely useless
      anyway. Also, the conditional on the rgrp being NULL can then be
      removed from the tracepoint. After this change, all the block
      reservation tracepoint calls will be called with the rgrp information.
      
      The existing ins,clm and tdel calls to the block reservation tracepoint
      are sufficient to track the entire life of the block reservation.
      
      In gfs2_block_alloc() the error detection is updated to print out
      the inode number of the problematic inode. This can then be compared
      against the information in the glock dump,tracepoints, etc.

      GFS2: Add structure to contain rgrp, bitmap, offset tuple · 4a993fb1
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      This patch introduces a new structure, gfs2_rbm, which is a
      tuple of a resource group, a bitmap within the resource group
      and an offset within that bitmap. This is designed to make
      manipulating these sets of variables easier. There is also a
      new helper function which converts this representation back
      to a disk block address.
      
      In addition, the rbtree nodes which are used for the reservations
      were not being correctly initialised, which is now fixed. Also,
      the tracing was not passing through the inode where it should
      have been. That is mostly fixed aside from one corner case. This
      needs to be revisited since there can also be a NULL rgrp in
      some cases which results in the device being incorrect in the
      trace.
      
      This is intended to be the first step towards cleaning up some
      of the allocation code, and some further bug fixes.

      GFS2: Reduce file fragmentation · 8e2e0047
      Bob Peterson 提交于
      This patch reduces GFS2 file fragmentation by pre-reserving blocks. The
      resulting improved on disk layout greatly speeds up operations in cases
      which would have resulted in interlaced allocation of blocks previously.
      A typical example of this is 10 parallel dd processes, each writing to a
      file in a common dirctory.
      
      The implementation uses an rbtree of reservations attached to each
      resource group (and each inode).

      GFS2: Add rgrp information to block_alloc trace point · 41db1ab9
      Bob Peterson 提交于
      This is a second attempt at a patch that adds rgrp information to the
      block allocation trace point for GFS2. As suggested, the patch was
      modified to list the rgrp information _after_ the fields that exist today.
      
      Again, the reason for this patch is to allow us to trace and debug
      problems with the block reservations patch, which is still in the works.
      We can debug problems with reservations if we can see what block allocations
      result from the block reservations. It may also be handy in figuring out
      if there are problems in rgrp free space accounting. In other words,
      we can use it to track the rgrp and its free space along side the allocations
      that are taking place.

      GFS2: glock statistics gathering · a245769f
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      The stats are divided into two sets: those relating to the
      super block and those relating to an individual glock. The
      super block stats are done on a per cpu basis in order to
      try and reduce the overhead of gathering them. They are also
      further divided by glock type.
      
      In the case of both the super block and glock statistics,
      the same information is gathered in each case. The super
      block statistics are used to provide default values for
      most of the glock statistics, so that newly created glocks
      should have, as far as possible, a sensible starting point.
      
      The statistics are divided into three pairs of mean and
      variance, plus two counters. The mean/variance pairs are
      smoothed exponential estimates and the algorithm used is
      one which will be very familiar to those used to calculation
      of round trip times in network code.
      
      The three pairs of mean/variance measure the following
      things:
      
       1. DLM lock time (non-blocking requests)
       2. DLM lock time (blocking requests)
       3. Inter-request time (again to the DLM)
      
      A non-blocking request is one which will complete right
      away, whatever the state of the DLM lock in question. That
      currently means any requests when (a) the current state of
      the lock is exclusive (b) the requested state is either null
      or unlocked or (c) the "try lock" flag is set. A blocking
      request covers all the other lock requests.
      
      There are two counters. The first is there primarily to show
      how many lock requests have been made, and thus how much data
      has gone into the mean/variance calculations. The other counter
      is counting queueing of holders at the top layer of the glock
      code. Hopefully that number will be a lot larger than the number
      of dlm lock requests issued.
      
      So why gather these statistics? There are several reasons
      we'd like to get a better idea of these timings:
      
      1. To be able to better set the glock "min hold time"
      2. To spot performance issues more easily
      3. To improve the algorithm for selecting resource groups for
      allocation (to base it on lock wait time, rather than blindly
      using a "try lock")
      Due to the smoothing action of the updates, a step change in
      some input quantity being sampled will only fully be taken
      into account after 8 samples (or 4 for the variance) and this
      needs to be carefully considered when interpreting the
      results.
      
      Knowing both the time it takes a lock request to complete and
      the average time between lock requests for a glock means we
      can compute the total percentage of the time for which the
      node is able to use a glock vs. time that the rest of the
      cluster has its share. That will be very useful when setting
      the lock min hold time.
      
      The other point to remember is that all times are in
      nanoseconds. Great care has been taken to ensure that we
      measure exactly the quantities that we want, as accurately
      as possible. There are always inaccuracies in any
      measuring system, but I hope this is as accurate as we
      can reasonably make it.

      GFS2: Don't enforce min hold time when two demotes occur in rapid succession · 7b5e3d5f
      Steven Whitehouse 提交于
      Due to the design of the VFS, it is quite usual for operations on GFS2
      to consist of a lookup (requiring a shared lock) followed by an
      operation requiring an exclusive lock. If a remote node has cached an
      exclusive lock, then it will receive two demote events in rapid succession
      firstly for a shared lock and then to unlocked. The existing min hold time
      code was triggering in this case, even if the node was otherwise idle
      since the state change time was being updated by the initial demote.
      
      This patch introduces logic to skip the min hold timer in the case that
      a "double demote" of this kind has occurred. The min hold timer will
      still be used in all other cases.
      
      A new glock flag is introduced which is used to keep track of whether
      there have been any newly queued holders since the last glock state
      change. The min hold time is only applied if the flag is set.

      This patch adds the ability to trace various aspects of the GFS2
      filesystem. The trace points are divided into three groups,
      glocks, logging and bmap. These points have been chosen because
      they allow inspection of the major internal functions of GFS2
