      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.

      NFS: don't try to cross a mountpount when there isn't one there. · 99bbf6ec
      NeilBrown 提交于
      consider the sequence of commands:
       mkdir -p /import/nfs /import/bind /import/etc
       mount --bind / /import/bind
       mount --make-private /import/bind
       mount --bind /import/etc /import/bind/etc
      
       exportfs -o rw,no_root_squash,crossmnt,async,no_subtree_check localhost:/
       mount -o vers=4 localhost:/ /import/nfs
       ls -l /import/nfs/etc
      
      You would not expect this to report a stale file handle.
      Yet it does.
      
      The manipulations under /import/bind cause the dentry for
      /etc to get the DCACHE_MOUNTED flag set, even though nothing
      is mounted on /etc.  This causes nfsd to call
      nfsd_cross_mnt() even though there is no mountpoint.  So an
      upcall to mountd for "/etc" is performed.
      
      The 'crossmnt' flag on the export of / causes mountd to
      report that /etc is exported as it is a descendant of /.  It
      assumes the kernel wouldn't ask about something that wasn't
      a mountpoint.  The filehandle returned identifies the
      filesystem and the inode number of /etc.
      
      When this filehandle is presented to rpc.mountd, via
      "nfsd.fh", the inode cannot be found associated with any
      name in /etc/exports, or with any mountpoint listed by
      getmntent().  So rpc.mountd says the filehandle doesn't
      exist. Hence ESTALE.
      
      This is fixed by teaching nfsd not to trust DCACHE_MOUNTED
      too much.  It is just a hint, not a guarantee.
      Change nfsd_mountpoint() to return '1' for a certain mountpoint,
      '2' for a possible mountpoint, and 0 otherwise.
      
      Then change nfsd_crossmnt() to check if follow_down()
      actually found a mountpount and, if not, to avoid performing
      a lookup if the location is not known to certainly require
      an export-point.

      sched/core: Remove 'task' parameter and rename tsk_restore_flags() to current_restore_flags() · 717a94b5
      NeilBrown 提交于
      It is not safe for one thread to modify the ->flags
      of another thread as there is no locking that can protect
      the update.
      
      So tsk_restore_flags(), which takes a task pointer and modifies
      the flags, is an invitation to do the wrong thing.
      
      All current users pass "current" as the task, so no developers have
      accepted that invitation.  It would be best to ensure it remains
      that way.
      
      So rename tsk_restore_flags() to current_restore_flags() and don't
      pass in a task_struct pointer.  Always operate on current->flags.

      nfsd: special case truncates some more · 783112f7
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      Both the NFS protocols and the Linux VFS use a setattr operation with a
      bitmap of attributes to set to set various file attributes including the
      file size and the uid/gid.
      
      The Linux syscalls never mix size updates with unrelated updates like
      the uid/gid, and some file systems like XFS and GFS2 rely on the fact
      that truncates don't update random other attributes, and many other file
      systems handle the case but do not update the other attributes in the
      same transaction.  NFSD on the other hand passes the attributes it gets
      on the wire more or less directly through to the VFS, leading to updates
      the file systems don't expect.  XFS at least has an assert on the
      allowed attributes, which caught an unusual NFS client setting the size
      and group at the same time.
      
      To handle this issue properly this splits the notify_change call in
      nfsd_setattr into two separate ones.

      nfsd: don't hold i_mutex over userspace upcalls · bbddca8e
      NeilBrown 提交于
      We need information about exports when crossing mountpoints during
      lookup or NFSv4 readdir.  If we don't already have that information
      cached, we may have to ask (and wait for) rpc.mountd.
      
      In both cases we currently hold the i_mutex on the parent of the
      directory we're asking rpc.mountd about.  We've seen situations where
      rpc.mountd performs some operation on that directory that tries to take
      the i_mutex again, resulting in deadlock.
      
      With some care, we may be able to avoid that in rpc.mountd.  But it
      seems better just to avoid holding a mutex while waiting on userspace.
      
      It appears that lookup_one_len is pretty much the only operation that
      needs the i_mutex.  So we could just drop the i_mutex elsewhere and do
      something like
      
      	mutex_lock()
      	lookup_one_len()
      	mutex_unlock()
      
      In many cases though the lookup would have been cached and not required
      the i_mutex, so it's more efficient to create a lookup_one_len() variant
      that only takes the i_mutex when necessary.

      nfsd: take struct file setup fully into nfs4_preprocess_stateid_op · af90f707
      Christoph Hellwig 提交于
      This patch changes nfs4_preprocess_stateid_op so it always returns
      a valid struct file if it has been asked for that.  For that we
      now allocate a temporary struct file for special stateids, and check
      permissions if we got the file structure from the stateid.  This
      ensures that all callers will get their handling of special stateids
      right, and avoids code duplication.
      
      There is a little wart in here because the read code needs to know
      if we allocated a file structure so that it can copy around the
      read-ahead parameters.  In the long run we should probably aim to
      cache full file structures used with special stateids instead.
