      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.

      rds: tcp: Sequence teardown of listen and acceptor sockets to avoid races · b21dd450
      Sowmini Varadhan 提交于
      Commit a93d01f5 ("RDS: TCP: avoid bad page reference in
      rds_tcp_listen_data_ready") added the function
      rds_tcp_listen_sock_def_readable()  to handle the case when a
      partially set-up acceptor socket drops into rds_tcp_listen_data_ready().
      However, if the listen socket (rtn->rds_tcp_listen_sock) is itself going
      through a tear-down via rds_tcp_listen_stop(), the (*ready)() will be
      null and we would hit a panic  of the form
        BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at   (null)
        IP:           (null)
         :
        ? rds_tcp_listen_data_ready+0x59/0xb0 [rds_tcp]
        tcp_data_queue+0x39d/0x5b0
        tcp_rcv_established+0x2e5/0x660
        tcp_v4_do_rcv+0x122/0x220
        tcp_v4_rcv+0x8b7/0x980
          :
      In the above case, it is not fatal to encounter a NULL value for
      ready- we should just drop the packet and let the flush of the
      acceptor thread finish gracefully.
      
      In general, the tear-down sequence for listen() and accept() socket
      that is ensured by this commit is:
           rtn->rds_tcp_listen_sock = NULL; /* prevent any new accepts */
           In rds_tcp_listen_stop():
               serialize with, and prevent, further callbacks using lock_sock()
               flush rds_wq
               flush acceptor workq
               sock_release(listen socket)

      RDS: TCP: avoid bad page reference in rds_tcp_listen_data_ready · a93d01f5
      Sowmini Varadhan 提交于
      As the existing comments in rds_tcp_listen_data_ready() indicate,
      it is possible under some race-windows to get to this function with the
      accept() socket. If that happens, we could run into a sequence whereby
      
         thread 1				thread 2
      
      rds_tcp_accept_one() thread
      sets up new_sock via ->accept().
      The sk_user_data is now
      sock_def_readable
      					data comes in for new_sock,
      					->sk_data_ready is called, and
      					we land in rds_tcp_listen_data_ready
      rds_tcp_set_callbacks()
      takes the sk_callback_lock and
      sets up sk_user_data to be the cp
      					read_lock sk_callback_lock
      					ready = cp
      					unlock sk_callback_lock
      					page fault on ready
      
      In the above sequence, we end up with a panic on a bad page reference
      when trying to execute (*ready)(). Instead we need to call
      sock_def_readable() safely, which is what this patch achieves.

      RDS: TCP: Synchronize accept() and connect() paths on t_conn_lock. · bd7c5f98
      Sowmini Varadhan 提交于
      An arbitration scheme for duelling SYNs is implemented as part of
      commit 241b2719 ("RDS-TCP: Reset tcp callbacks if re-using an
      outgoing socket in rds_tcp_accept_one()") which ensures that both nodes
      involved will arrive at the same arbitration decision. However, this
      needs to be synchronized with an outgoing SYN to be generated by
      rds_tcp_conn_connect(). This commit achieves the synchronization
      through the t_conn_lock mutex in struct rds_tcp_connection.
      
      The rds_conn_state is checked in rds_tcp_conn_connect() after acquiring
      the t_conn_lock mutex.  A SYN is sent out only if the RDS connection is
      not already UP (an UP would indicate that rds_tcp_accept_one() has
      completed 3WH, so no SYN needs to be generated).
      
      Similarly, the rds_conn_state is checked in rds_tcp_accept_one() after
      acquiring the t_conn_lock mutex. The only acceptable states (to
      allow continuation of the arbitration logic) are UP (i.e., outgoing SYN
      was SYN-ACKed by peer after it sent us the SYN) or CONNECTING (we sent
      outgoing SYN before we saw incoming SYN).

      RDS-TCP: Support multiple RDS-TCP listen endpoints, one per netns. · 467fa153
      Sowmini Varadhan 提交于
      Register pernet subsys init/stop functions that will set up
      and tear down per-net RDS-TCP listen endpoints. Unregister
      pernet subusys functions on 'modprobe -r' to clean up these
      end points.
      
      Enable keepalive on both accept and connect socket endpoints.
      The keepalive timer expiration will ensure that client socket
      endpoints will be removed as appropriate from the netns when
      an interface is removed from a namespace.
      
      Register a device notifier callback that will clean up all
      sockets (and thus avoid the need to wait for keepalive timeout)
      when the loopback device is unregistered from the netns indicating
      that the netns is getting deleted.

      net: Fix use after free by removing length arg from sk_data_ready callbacks. · 676d2369
      David S. Miller 提交于
      Several spots in the kernel perform a sequence like:
      
      	skb_queue_tail(&sk->s_receive_queue, skb);
      	sk->sk_data_ready(sk, skb->len);
      
      But at the moment we place the SKB onto the socket receive queue it
      can be consumed and freed up.  So this skb->len access is potentially
      to freed up memory.
      
      Furthermore, the skb->len can be modified by the consumer so it is
      possible that the value isn't accurate.
      
      And finally, no actual implementation of this callback actually uses
      the length argument.  And since nobody actually cared about it's
      value, lots of call sites pass arbitrary values in such as '0' and
      even '1'.
      
      So just remove the length argument from the callback, that way there
      is no confusion whatsoever and all of these use-after-free cases get
      fixed as a side effect.
      
      Based upon a patch by Eric Dumazet and his suggestion to audit this
      issue tree-wide.
