      bpf: correct broken uapi for BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT program type · c895f6f7
      Hendrik Brueckner 提交于
      Commit 0515e599 ("bpf: introduce BPF_PROG_TYPE_PERF_EVENT
      program type") introduced the bpf_perf_event_data structure which
      exports the pt_regs structure.  This is OK for multiple architectures
      but fail for s390 and arm64 which do not export pt_regs.  Programs
      using them, for example, the bpf selftest fail to compile on these
      architectures.
      
      For s390, exporting the pt_regs is not an option because s390 wants
      to allow changes to it.  For arm64, there is a user_pt_regs structure
      that covers parts of the pt_regs structure for use by user space.
      
      To solve the broken uapi for s390 and arm64, introduce an abstract
      type for pt_regs and add an asm/bpf_perf_event.h file that concretes
      the type.  An asm-generic header file covers the architectures that
      export pt_regs today.
      
      The arch-specific enablement for s390 and arm64 follows in separate
      commits.

      License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with no license · 6f52b16c
      Greg Kroah-Hartman 提交于
      Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
      makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
      
      By default are files without license information under the default
      license of the kernel, which is GPLV2.  Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
      them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
      intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
      which is in the kernels COPYING file:
      
         NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
         services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
         of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
      
      otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.
      
      Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
      license identifier.  The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
      Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
      Linux syscall exception.  SPDX license identifiers are 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.  See the previous patch in this series for the
      methodology of how this patch was researched.

      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.

      uapi: export all headers under uapi directories · fcc8487d
      Nicolas Dichtel 提交于
      Regularly, when a new header is created in include/uapi/, the developer
      forgets to add it in the corresponding Kbuild file. This error is usually
      detected after the release is out.
      
      In fact, all headers under uapi directories should be exported, thus it's
      useless to have an exhaustive list.

      score/time: Set ->min_delta_ticks and ->max_delta_ticks · c5d71065
      Nicolai Stange 提交于
      In preparation for making the clockevents core NTP correction aware,
      all clockevent device drivers must set ->min_delta_ticks and
      ->max_delta_ticks rather than ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns: a
      clockevent device's rate is going to change dynamically and thus, the
      ratio of ns to ticks ceases to stay invariant.
      
      Make the score arch's clockevent driver initialize these fields properly.
      
      This patch alone doesn't introduce any change in functionality as the
      clockevents core still looks exclusively at the (untouched) ->min_delta_ns
      and ->max_delta_ns. As soon as this has changed, a followup patch will
      purge the initialization of ->min_delta_ns and ->max_delta_ns from this
      driver.

      sched/cputime: Remove generic asm headers · b672592f
      Frederic Weisbecker 提交于
      cputime_t is now only used by two architectures:
      
      	* powerpc (when CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE=y)
      	* s390
      
      And since the core doesn't use it anymore, we don't need any arch support
      from the others. So we can remove their stub implementations.
      
      A final cleanup would be to provide an efficient pure arch
      implementation of cputime_to_nsec() for s390 and powerpc and finally
      remove include/linux/cputime.h .

      locking/core, arch: Remove cpu_relax_lowlatency() · 5bd0b85b

      As there are no users left, we can remove cpu_relax_lowlatency()
      implementations from every architecture.

      locking/core: Introduce cpu_relax_yield() · 79ab11cd
      Christian Borntraeger 提交于
      For spinning loops people do often use barrier() or cpu_relax().
      For most architectures cpu_relax and barrier are the same, but on
      some architectures cpu_relax can add some latency.
      For example on power,sparc64 and arc, cpu_relax can shift the CPU
      towards other hardware threads in an SMT environment.
      On s390 cpu_relax does even more, it uses an hypercall to the
      hypervisor to give up the timeslice.
      In contrast to the SMT yielding this can result in larger latencies.
      In some places this latency is unwanted, so another variant
      "cpu_relax_lowlatency" was introduced. Before this is used in more
      and more places, lets revert the logic and provide a cpu_relax_yield
      that can be called in places where yielding is more important than
      latency. By default this is the same as cpu_relax on all architectures.
