      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.

      perf script: Add 'brstackinsn' for branch stacks · 48d02a1d
      Andi Kleen 提交于
      Implement printing instruction sequences as hex dump for branch stacks.
      
      This relies on the x86 instruction decoder used by the PT decoder to
      find the lengths of instructions to dump them individually.
      
      This is good enough for pattern matching.
      
      This allows to study hot paths for individual samples, together with
      branch misprediction and cycle count / IPC information if available (on
      Skylake systems).
      
        % perf record -b ...
        % perf script -F brstackinsn
        ...
          read_hpet+67:
                ffffffff9905b843        insn: 74 ea                     # PRED
                ffffffff9905b82f        insn: 85 c9

      Only works when no special branch filters are specified.
      
      Occasionally the path does not reach up to the sample IP, as the LBRs
      may be frozen before executing a final jump. In this case we print a
      special message.
      
      The instruction dumper piggy backs on the existing infrastructure from
      the IP PT decoder.
      
      An earlier iteration of this patch relied on a disassembler, but this
      version only uses the existing instruction decoder.
      
      Committer note:
      
      Added hint about how to get suitable perf.data files for use with
      '-F brstackinsm':
      
        $ perf record usleep 1
        [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
        [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.018 MB perf.data (8 samples) ]
        $
        $ perf script -F brstackinsn
        Display of branch stack assembler requested, but non all-branch filter set
        Hint: run 'perf record -b ...'

      There is missing initialization.  It only affects the test because it is

      x86/asm/decoder: Use explicitly signed chars · 19072f23
      Josh Poimboeuf 提交于
      When running objtool on a ppc64le host to analyze x86 binaries, it
      reports a lot of false warnings like:
      
        ipc/compat_mq.o: warning: objtool: compat_SyS_mq_open()+0x91: can't find jump dest instruction at .text+0x3a5
      
      The warnings are caused by the x86 instruction decoder setting the wrong
      value for the jump instruction's immediate field because it assumes that
      "char == signed char", which isn't true for all architectures.  When
      converting char to int, gcc sign-extends on x86 but doesn't sign-extend
      on ppc64le.
      
      According to the gcc man page, that's a feature, not a bug:
      
        > Each kind of machine has a default for what "char" should be.  It is
        > either like "unsigned char" by default or like "signed char" by
        > default.
        >
        > Ideally, a portable program should always use "signed char" or
        > "unsigned char" when it depends on the signedness of an object.
      
      Conform to the "standards" by changing the "char" casts to "signed
      char".  This results in no actual changes to the object code on x86.
      
      Note: the x86 decoder now lives in three different locations in the
      kernel tree, which are all kept in sync via makefile checks and
      warnings: in-kernel, perf, and objtool.  This fixes all three locations.
      Eventually we should probably try to at least converge the two separate
      "tools" locations into a single shared location.
