      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.

      locking/atomics: COCCINELLE/treewide: Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() patterns to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE()
      
      Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the
      coccinelle script shown below and apply its output.
      
      For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
      preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
      former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
      ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in
      churn.
      
      However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to
      correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write
      accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining
      ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following
      coccinelle script:
      
      ----
      // Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and
      // WRITE_ONCE()

      vhost_net: do not stall on zerocopy depletion · 1e6f7453
      Willem de Bruijn 提交于
      Vhost-net has a hard limit on the number of zerocopy skbs in flight.
      When reached, transmission stalls. Stalls cause latency, as well as
      head-of-line blocking of other flows that do not use zerocopy.
      
      Instead of stalling, revert to copy-based transmission.
      
      Tested by sending two udp flows from guest to host, one with payload
      of VHOST_GOODCOPY_LEN, the other too small for zerocopy (1B). The
      large flow is redirected to a netem instance with 1MBps rate limit
      and deep 1000 entry queue.
      
        modprobe ifb
        ip link set dev ifb0 up
        tc qdisc add dev ifb0 root netem limit 1000 rate 1MBit
      
        tc qdisc add dev tap0 ingress
        tc filter add dev tap0 parent ffff: protocol ip \
            u32 match ip dport 8000 0xffff \
            action mirred egress redirect dev ifb0
      
      Before the delay, both flows process around 80K pps. With the delay,
      before this patch, both process around 400. After this patch, the
      large flow is still rate limited, while the small reverts to its
      original rate. See also discussion in the first link, below.
      
      Without rate limiting, {1, 10, 100}x TCP_STREAM tests continued to
      send at 100% zerocopy.
      
      The limit in vhost_exceeds_maxpend must be carefully chosen. With
      vq->num >> 1, the flows remain correlated. This value happens to
      correspond to VHOST_MAX_PENDING for vq->num == 256. Allow smaller
      fractions and ensure correctness also for much smaller values of
      vq->num, by testing the min() of both explicitly. See also the
      discussion in the second link below.
      
      Changes
        v1 -> v2
          - replaced min with typed min_t
          - avoid unnecessary whitespace change

      vhost_net: correctly check tx avail during rx busy polling · 8b949bef
      Jason Wang 提交于
      We check tx avail through vhost_enable_notify() in the past which is
      wrong since it only checks whether or not guest has filled more
      available buffer since last avail idx synchronization which was just
      done by vhost_vq_avail_empty() before. What we really want is checking
      pending buffers in the avail ring. Fix this by calling
      vhost_vq_avail_empty() instead.
      
      This issue could be noticed by doing netperf TCP_RR benchmark as
      client from guest (but not host). With this fix, TCP_RR from guest to
      localhost restores from 1375.91 trans per sec to 55235.28 trans per
      sec on my laptop (Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-5600U CPU @ 2.60GHz).

      sock: enable MSG_ZEROCOPY · 1f8b977a
      Willem de Bruijn 提交于
      Prepare the datapath for refcounted ubuf_info. Clone ubuf_info with
      skb_zerocopy_clone() wherever needed due to skb split, merge, resize
      or clone.
      
      Split skb_orphan_frags into two variants. The split, merge, .. paths
      support reference counted zerocopy buffers, so do not do a deep copy.
      Add skb_orphan_frags_rx for paths that may loop packets to receive
      sockets. That is not allowed, as it may cause unbounded latency.
      Deep copy all zerocopy copy buffers, ref-counted or not, in this path.
      
      The exact locations to modify were chosen by exhaustively searching
      through all code that might modify skb_frag references and/or the
      the SKBTX_DEV_ZEROCOPY tx_flags bit.
      
      The changes err on the safe side, in two ways.
      
      (1) legacy ubuf_info paths virtio and tap are not modified. They keep
          a 1:1 ubuf_info to sk_buff relationship. Calls to skb_orphan_frags
          still call skb_copy_ubufs and thus copy frags in this case.
      
      (2) not all copies deep in the stack are addressed yet. skb_shift,
          skb_split and skb_try_coalesce can be refined to avoid copying.
          These are not in the hot path and this patch is hairy enough as
          is, so that is left for future refinement.

      mm, tree wide: replace __GFP_REPEAT by __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL with more useful semantic · dcda9b04
      Michal Hocko 提交于
      __GFP_REPEAT was designed to allow retry-but-eventually-fail semantic to
      the page allocator.  This has been true but only for allocations
      requests larger than PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER.  It has been always
      ignored for smaller sizes.  This is a bit unfortunate because there is
      no way to express the same semantic for those requests and they are
      considered too important to fail so they might end up looping in the
      page allocator for ever, similarly to GFP_NOFAIL requests.
      
      Now that the whole tree has been cleaned up and accidental or misled
      usage of __GFP_REPEAT flag has been removed for !costly requests we can
      give the original flag a better name and more importantly a more useful
      semantic.  Let's rename it to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL which tells the user
      that the allocator would try really hard but there is no promise of a
      success.  This will work independent of the order and overrides the
      default allocator behavior.  Page allocator users have several levels of
      guarantee vs.  cost options (take GFP_KERNEL as an example)
      
       - GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_RECLAIM - optimistic allocation without _any_
         attempt to free memory at all. The most light weight mode which even
         doesn't kick the background reclaim. Should be used carefully because
         it might deplete the memory and the next user might hit the more
         aggressive reclaim
      
       - GFP_KERNEL & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (or GFP_NOWAIT)- optimistic
         allocation without any attempt to free memory from the current
         context but can wake kswapd to reclaim memory if the zone is below
         the low watermark. Can be used from either atomic contexts or when
         the request is a performance optimization and there is another
         fallback for a slow path.
      
       - (GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_HIGH) & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM (aka GFP_ATOMIC) -
         non sleeping allocation with an expensive fallback so it can access
         some portion of memory reserves. Usually used from interrupt/bh
         context with an expensive slow path fallback.
      
       - GFP_KERNEL - both background and direct reclaim are allowed and the
         _default_ page allocator behavior is used. That means that !costly
         allocation requests are basically nofail but there is no guarantee of
         that behavior so failures have to be checked properly by callers
         (e.g. OOM killer victim is allowed to fail currently).
      
       - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NORETRY - overrides the default allocator behavior
         and all allocation requests fail early rather than cause disruptive
         reclaim (one round of reclaim in this implementation). The OOM killer
         is not invoked.
      
       - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL - overrides the default allocator
         behavior and all allocation requests try really hard. The request
         will fail if the reclaim cannot make any progress. The OOM killer
         won't be triggered.
      
       - GFP_KERNEL | __GFP_NOFAIL - overrides the default allocator behavior
         and all allocation requests will loop endlessly until they succeed.
         This might be really dangerous especially for larger orders.
      
      Existing users of __GFP_REPEAT are changed to __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL
      because they already had their semantic.  No new users are added.
      __alloc_pages_slowpath is changed to bail out for __GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL if
      there is no progress and we have already passed the OOM point.
      
      This means that all the reclaim opportunities have been exhausted except
      the most disruptive one (the OOM killer) and a user defined fallback
      behavior is more sensible than keep retrying in the page allocator.

      sched/wait: Rename wait_queue_t => wait_queue_entry_t · ac6424b9
      Ingo Molnar 提交于
      Rename:
      
      	wait_queue_t		=>	wait_queue_entry_t
      
      'wait_queue_t' was always a slight misnomer: its name implies that it's a "queue",
      but in reality it's a queue *entry*. The 'real' queue is the wait queue head,
      which had to carry the name.
      
      Start sorting this out by renaming it to 'wait_queue_entry_t'.
      
      This also allows the real structure name 'struct __wait_queue' to
      lose its double underscore and become 'struct wait_queue_entry',
      which is the more canonical nomenclature for such data types.

      vhost/vsock: use static minor number · f4660cc9
      Stefan Hajnoczi 提交于
      Vhost-vsock is a software device so there is no probe call that causes
      the driver to register its misc char device node.  This creates a
      chicken and egg problem: userspace applications must open
      /dev/vhost-vsock to use the driver but the file doesn't exist until the
      kernel module has been loaded.
      
      Use the devname modalias mechanism so that /dev/vhost-vsock is created
      at boot.  The vhost_vsock kernel module is automatically loaded when the
      first application opens /dev/host-vsock.
      
      Note that the "reserved for local use" range in
      Documentation/admin-guide/devices.txt is incorrect.  The userio driver
      already occupies part of that range.  I've updated the documentation
      accordingly.

      vhost_net: try batch dequing from skb array · c67df11f
      Jason Wang 提交于
      We used to dequeue one skb during recvmsg() from skb_array, this could
      be inefficient because of the bad cache utilization and spinlock
      touching for each packet. This patch tries to batch them by calling
      batch dequeuing helpers explicitly on the exported skb array and pass
      the skb back through msg_control for underlayer socket to finish the
      userspace copying. Batch dequeuing is also the requirement for more
      batching improvement on receive path.
      
      Tests were done by pktgen on tap with XDP1 in guest. Host is Intel(R)
      Xeon(R) CPU E5-2650 0 @ 2.00GHz.

      vhost: introduce O(1) vq metadata cache · f8894913
      Jason Wang 提交于
      When device IOTLB is enabled, all address translations were stored in
      interval tree. O(lgN) searching time could be slow for virtqueue
      metadata (avail, used and descriptors) since they were accessed much
      often than other addresses. So this patch introduces an O(1) array
      which points to the interval tree nodes that store the translations of
      vq metadata. Those array were update during vq IOTLB prefetching and
      were reset during each invalidation and tlb update. Each time we want
      to access vq metadata, this small array were queried before interval
      tree. This would be sufficient for static mappings but not dynamic
      mappings, we could do optimizations on top.
      
      Test were done with l2fwd in guest (2M hugepage):
      
         noiommu  | before        | after
      tx 1.32Mpps | 1.06Mpps(82%) | 1.30Mpps(98%)
      rx 2.33Mpps | 1.46Mpps(63%) | 2.29Mpps(98%)
      
      We can almost reach the same performance as noiommu mode.

      vhost: fix initialization for vq->is_le · cda8bba0
      Halil Pasic 提交于
      Currently, under certain circumstances vhost_init_is_le does just a part
      of the initialization job, and depends on vhost_reset_is_le being called
      too. For this reason vhost_vq_init_access used to call vhost_reset_is_le
      when vq->private_data is NULL. This is not only counter intuitive, but
      also real a problem because it breaks vhost_net. The bug was introduced to
      vhost_net with commit 2751c988 ("vhost: cross-endian support for
      legacy devices"). The symptom is corruption of the vq's used.idx field
      (virtio) after VHOST_NET_SET_BACKEND was issued as a part of the vhost
      shutdown on a vq with pending descriptors.
      
      Let us make sure the outcome of vhost_init_is_le never depend on the state
      it is actually supposed to initialize, and fix virtio_net by removing the
      reset from vhost_vq_init_access.
      
      With the above, there is no reason for vhost_reset_is_le to do just half
      of the job. Let us make vhost_reset_is_le reinitialize is_le.

      vhost/scsi: silence uninitialized variable warning · 532e15af
      Dan Carpenter 提交于
      This is to silence an uninitialized variable warning in debug output.
      The problem is this line:
      
      	pr_debug("vhost_get_vq_desc: head: %d, out: %u in: %u\n",
      		 head, out, in);
      
      If "head == vq->num" is true on the first iteration then "out" and "in"
      aren't initialized.  We handle that a few lines after the printk.  I was
      tempted to just delete the pr_debug() but I decided to just initialize
      them to zero instead.
      
      Also checkpatch.pl complains if variables are declared as just
      "unsigned" without the "int".
