      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.

      percpu_counter: add @gfp to percpu_counter_init() · 908c7f19
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      Percpu allocator now supports allocation mask.  Add @gfp to
      percpu_counter_init() so that !GFP_KERNEL allocation masks can be used
      with percpu_counters too.
      
      We could have left percpu_counter_init() alone and added
      percpu_counter_init_gfp(); however, the number of users isn't that
      high and introducing _gfp variants to all percpu data structures would
      be quite ugly, so let's just do the conversion.  This is the one with
      the most users.  Other percpu data structures are a lot easier to
      convert.
      
      This patch doesn't make any functional difference.

      net: Pass optional SKB and SK arguments to dst_ops->{update_pmtu,redirect}() · 6700c270
      David S. Miller 提交于
      This will be used so that we can compose a full flow key.
      
      Even though we have a route in this context, we need more.  In the
      future the routes will be without destination address, source address,
      etc. keying.  One ipv4 route will cover entire subnets, etc.
      
      In this environment we have to have a way to possess persistent storage
      for redirects and PMTU information.  This persistent storage will exist
      in the FIB tables, and that's why we'll need to be able to rebuild a
      full lookup flow key here.  Using that flow key will do a fib_lookup()
      and create/update the persistent entry.

      net: Implement read-only protection and COW'ing of metrics. · 62fa8a84
      David S. Miller 提交于
      Routing metrics are now copy-on-write.
      
      Initially a route entry points it's metrics at a read-only location.
      If a routing table entry exists, it will point there.  Else it will
      point at the all zero metric place-holder called 'dst_default_metrics'.
      
      The writeability state of the metrics is stored in the low bits of the
      metrics pointer, we have two bits left to spare if we want to store
      more states.
      
      For the initial implementation, COW is implemented simply via kmalloc.
      However future enhancements will change this to place the writable
      metrics somewhere else, in order to increase sharing.  Very likely
      this "somewhere else" will be the inetpeer cache.
      
      Note also that this means that metrics updates may transiently fail
      if we cannot COW the metrics successfully.
      
      But even by itself, this patch should decrease memory usage and
      increase cache locality especially for routing workloads.  In those
      cases the read-only metric copies stay in place and never get written
      to.
      
      TCP workloads where metrics get updated, and those rare cases where
      PMTU triggers occur, will take a very slight performance hit.  But
      that hit will be alleviated when the long-term writable metrics
      move to a more sharable location.
      
      Since the metrics storage went from a u32 array of RTAX_MAX entries to
      what is essentially a pointer, some retooling of the dst_entry layout
      was necessary.
      
      Most importantly, we need to preserve the alignment of the reference
      count so that it doesn't share cache lines with the read-mostly state,
      as per Eric Dumazet's alignment assertion checks.
      
      The only non-trivial bit here is the move of the 'flags' member into
      the writeable cacheline.  This is OK since we are always accessing the
      flags around the same moment when we made a modification to the
      reference count.

      net: Abstract default ADVMSS behind an accessor. · 0dbaee3b
      David S. Miller 提交于
      Make all RTAX_ADVMSS metric accesses go through a new helper function,
      dst_metric_advmss().
      
      Leave the actual default metric as "zero" in the real metric slot,
      and compute the actual default value dynamically via a new dst_ops
      AF specific callback.
      
      For stacked IPSEC routes, we use the advmss of the path which
      preserves existing behavior.
      
      Unlike ipv4/ipv6, DecNET ties the advmss to the mtu and thus updates
      advmss on pmtu updates.  This inconsistency in advmss handling
      results in more raw metric accesses than I wish we ended up with.

      read only fields.

      netns: embed ip6_dst_ops directly · 86393e52
      Alexey Dobriyan 提交于
      struct net::ipv6.ip6_dst_ops is separatedly dynamically allocated,
      but there is no fundamental reason for it. Embed it directly into
      struct netns_ipv6.
      
      For that:
      * move struct dst_ops into separate header to fix circular dependencies
      	I honestly tried not to, it's pretty impossible to do other way
      * drop dynamical allocation, allocate together with netns
      
      For a change, remove struct dst_ops::dst_net, it's deducible
      by using container_of() given dst_ops pointer.
