      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.

      kprobes: move kprobe declarations to asm-generic/kprobes.h · 7d134b2c
      Luis R. Rodriguez 提交于
      Often all is needed is these small helpers, instead of compiler.h or a
      full kprobes.h.  This is important for asm helpers, in fact even some
      asm/kprobes.h make use of these helpers...  instead just keep a generic
      asm file with helpers useful for asm code with the least amount of
      clutter as possible.
      
      Likewise we need now to also address what to do about this file for both
      when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES, and when they do not.  Then
      for when architectures have CONFIG_HAVE_KPROBES but have disabled
      CONFIG_KPROBES.
      
      Right now most asm/kprobes.h do not have guards against CONFIG_KPROBES,
      this means most architecture code cannot include asm/kprobes.h safely.
      Correct this and add guards for architectures missing them.
      Additionally provide architectures that not have kprobes support with
      the default asm-generic solution.  This lets us force asm/kprobes.h on
      the header include/linux/kprobes.h always, but most importantly we can
      now safely include just asm/kprobes.h on architecture code without
      bringing the full kitchen sink of header files.
      
      Two architectures already provided a guard against CONFIG_KPROBES on its
      kprobes.h: sh, arch.  The rest of the architectures needed gaurds added.
      We avoid including any not-needed headers on asm/kprobes.h unless
      kprobes have been enabled.
      
      In a subsequent atomic change we can try now to remove compiler.h from
      include/linux/kprobes.h.
      
      During this sweep I've also identified a few architectures defining a
      common macro needed for both kprobes and ftrace, that of the definition
      of the breakput instruction up.  Some refer to this as
      BREAKPOINT_INSTRUCTION.  This must be kept outside of the #ifdef
      CONFIG_KPROBES guard.

      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: 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.

      ipv6: Pass proto to csum_ipv6_magic as __u8 instead of unsigned short · 1e940829
      Alexander Duyck 提交于
      This patch updates csum_ipv6_magic so that it correctly recognizes that
      protocol is a unsigned 8 bit value.
      
      This will allow us to better understand what limitations may or may not be
      present in how we handle the data.  For example there are a number of
      places that call htonl on the protocol value.  This is likely not necessary
      and can be replaced with a multiplication by ntohl(1) which will be
      converted to a shift by the compiler.

      ipv4: Update parameters for csum_tcpudp_magic to their original types · 01cfbad7
      Alexander Duyck 提交于
      This patch updates all instances of csum_tcpudp_magic and
      csum_tcpudp_nofold to reflect the types that are usually used as the source
      inputs.  For example the protocol field is populated based on nexthdr which
      is actually an unsigned 8 bit value.  The length is usually populated based
      on skb->len which is an unsigned integer.
      
      This addresses an issue in which the IPv6 function csum_ipv6_magic was
      generating a checksum using the full 32b of skb->len while
      csum_tcpudp_magic was only using the lower 16 bits.  As a result we could
      run into issues when attempting to adjust the checksum as there was no
      protocol agnostic way to update it.
      
      With this change the value is still truncated as many architectures use
      "(len + proto) << 8", however this truncation only occurs for values
      greater than 16776960 in length and as such is unlikely to occur as we stop
      the inner headers at ~64K in size.
      
      I did have to make a few minor changes in the arm, mn10300, nios2, and
      score versions of the function in order to support these changes as they
      were either using things such as an OR to combine the protocol and length,
      or were using ntohs to convert the length which would have truncated the
      value.
      
      I also updated a few spots in terms of whitespace and type differences for
      the addresses.  Most of this was just to make sure all of the definitions
      were in sync going forward.

      Make asm/word-at-a-time.h available on all architectures · a6e2f029
      Chris Metcalf 提交于
      Added the x86 implementation of word-at-a-time to the
      generic version, which previously only supported big-endian.
      
      Omitted the x86-specific load_unaligned_zeropad(), which in
      any case is also not present for the existing BE-only
      implementation of a word-at-a-time, and is only used under
      CONFIG_DCACHE_WORD_ACCESS.
      
      Added as a "generic-y" to the Kbuilds of all architectures
      that didn't previously have it.

      mm: new mm hook framework · 2ae416b1
      Laurent Dufour 提交于
      CRIU is recreating the process memory layout by remapping the checkpointee
      memory area on top of the current process (criu).  This includes remapping
      the vDSO to the place it has at checkpoint time.
      
      However some architectures like powerpc are keeping a reference to the
      vDSO base address to build the signal return stack frame by calling the
      vDSO sigreturn service.  So once the vDSO has been moved, this reference
      is no more valid and the signal frame built later are not usable.
      
      This patch serie is introducing a new mm hook framework, and a new
      arch_remap hook which is called when mremap is done and the mm lock still
      hold.  The next patch is adding the vDSO remap and unmap tracking to the
      powerpc architecture.
      
      This patch (of 3):
      
      This patch introduces a new set of header file to manage mm hooks:
      - per architecture empty header file (arch/x/include/asm/mm-arch-hooks.h)
      - a generic header (include/linux/mm-arch-hooks.h)
      
      The architecture which need to overwrite a hook as to redefine it in its
      header file, while architecture which doesn't need have nothing to do.
      
      The default hooks are defined in the generic header and are used in the
      case the architecture is not defining it.
      
      In a next step, mm hooks defined in include/asm-generic/mm_hooks.h should
      be moved here.

      all arches, signal: move restart_block to struct task_struct · f56141e3
      Andy Lutomirski 提交于
      If an attacker can cause a controlled kernel stack overflow, overwriting
      the restart block is a very juicy exploit target.  This is because the
      restart_block is held in the same memory allocation as the kernel stack.
      
      Moving the restart block to struct task_struct prevents this exploit by
      making the restart_block harder to locate.
      
      Note that there are other fields in thread_info that are also easy
      targets, at least on some architectures.
      
      It's also a decent simplification, since the restart code is more or less
      identical on all architectures.
