      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.

      netfilter: allow early drop of assured conntracks · c6dd940b
      Florian Westphal 提交于
      If insertion of a new conntrack fails because the table is full, the kernel
      searches the next buckets of the hash slot where the new connection
      was supposed to be inserted at for an entry that hasn't seen traffic
      in reply direction (non-assured), if it finds one, that entry is
      is dropped and the new connection entry is allocated.
      
      Allow the conntrack gc worker to also remove *assured* conntracks if
      resources are low.
      
      Do this by querying the l4 tracker, e.g. tcp connections are now dropped
      if they are no longer established (e.g. in finwait).
      
      This could be refined further, e.g. by adding 'soft' established timeout
      (i.e., a timeout that is only used once we get close to resource
      exhaustion).

      netns: make struct pernet_operations::id unsigned int · c7d03a00
      Alexey Dobriyan 提交于
      Make struct pernet_operations::id unsigned.
      
      There are 2 reasons to do so:
      
      1)
      This field is really an index into an zero based array and
      thus is unsigned entity. Using negative value is out-of-bound
      access by definition.
      
      2)
      On x86_64 unsigned 32-bit data which are mixed with pointers
      via array indexing or offsets added or subtracted to pointers
      are preffered to signed 32-bit data.
      
      "int" being used as an array index needs to be sign-extended
      to 64-bit before being used.
      
      	void f(long *p, int i)
      	{
      		g(p[i]);
      	}
      
        roughly translates to
      
      	movsx	rsi, esi
      	mov	rdi, [rsi+...]
      	call 	g
      
      MOVSX is 3 byte instruction which isn't necessary if the variable is
      unsigned because x86_64 is zero extending by default.
      
      Now, there is net_generic() function which, you guessed it right, uses
      "int" as an array index:
      
      	static inline void *net_generic(const struct net *net, int id)
      	{
      		...
      		ptr = ng->ptr[id - 1];
      		...
      	}
      
      And this function is used a lot, so those sign extensions add up.
      
      Patch snipes ~1730 bytes on allyesconfig kernel (without all junk
      messing with code generation):
      
      	add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 70/598 up/down: 396/-2126 (-1730)
      
      Unfortunately some functions actually grow bigger.
      This is a semmingly random artefact of code generation with register
      allocator being used differently. gcc decides that some variable
      needs to live in new r8+ registers and every access now requires REX
      prefix. Or it is shifted into r12, so [r12+0] addressing mode has to be
      used which is longer than [r8]
      
      However, overall balance is in negative direction:
      
      	add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 70/598 up/down: 396/-2126 (-1730)
      	function                                     old     new   delta

      netfilter: conntrack: introduce clash resolution on insertion race · 71d8c47f
      Pablo Neira Ayuso 提交于
      This patch introduces nf_ct_resolve_clash() to resolve race condition on
      conntrack insertions.
      
      This is particularly a problem for connection-less protocols such as
      UDP, with no initial handshake. Two or more packets may race to insert
      the entry resulting in packet drops.
      
      Another problematic scenario are packets enqueued to userspace via
      NFQUEUE after the raw table, that make it easier to trigger this
      race.
      
      To resolve this, the idea is to reset the conntrack entry to the one
      that won race. Packet and bytes counters are also merged.
      
      The 'insert_failed' stats still accounts for this situation, after
      this patch, the drop counter is bumped whenever we drop packets, so we
      can watch for unresolved clashes.

      This patch defines a new interface for l4 protocol trackers:
      
      unsigned int *(*get_timeouts)(struct net *net);
      
      that is used to return the array of unsigned int that contains
      the timeouts that will be applied for this flow. This is passed
      to the l4proto->new(...) and l4proto->packet(...) functions to
      specify the timeout policy.
      
      This interface allows per-net global timeout configuration
      (although only DCCP supports this by now) and it will allow
      custom custom timeout configuration by means of follow-up
      patches.
