      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 test: Reduce the sample_freq for the 'object code reading' test · 5243ba76
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      Using 4 kHz is not necessary and sometimes is more than what was
      auto-tuned:
      
        # dmesg | grep max_sample_rate | tail -2
        [ 2499.144373] perf interrupt took too long (2501 > 2500), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 50000
        [ 3592.413606] perf interrupt took too long (5069 > 5000), lowering kernel.perf_event_max_sample_rate to 25000
      
      Simulating a auto-tune of 2000 we make the test fail, as reported
      by Steven Noonan for one of his machines, so reduce it to 500 HZ,
      it is enough to get a good number of samples for this test:
      
        # perf test -v 21 2>&1  | grep '^Reading object code for memory address' | tee /tmp/out | tail -5
        Reading object code for memory address: 0x479f40
        Reading object code for memory address: 0x7f29b7eea80d
        Reading object code for memory address: 0x7f29b7eea80d
        Reading object code for memory address: 0x7f29b7eea800
        Reading object code for memory address: 0xffffffff813b2f23
        [root@jouet ~]# wc -l /tmp/out
        40 /tmp/out
        [root@jouet ~]#
      
      For systems that auto-tune below that, the previous patches will tell the
      user what is happening so that he may either ignore the result of this test or
      bump /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_max_sample_rate.

      perf tests: Pass the subtest index to each test routine · 721a1f53
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      Some tests have sub-tests we want to run, so allow passing this.
      
      Wang tried to avoid having to touch all tests, but then, having the
      test.func in an anonymous union makes the build fail on older compilers,
      like the one in RHEL6, where:
      
        test a = {
      	.func = foo,
        };
      
      fails.
      
      To fix it leave the func pointer in the main structure and pass the subtest
      index to all tests, end result function is the same, but we have just one
      function pointer, not two, with and without the subtest index as an argument.

      perf machine: Protect the machine->threads with a rwlock · b91fc39f
      Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 提交于
      In addition to using refcounts for the struct thread lifetime
      management, we need to protect access to machine->threads from
      concurrent access.
      
      That happens in 'perf top', where a thread processes events, inserting
      and deleting entries from that rb_tree while another thread decays
      hist_entries, that end up dropping references and ultimately deleting
      threads from the rb_tree and releasing its resources when no further
      hist_entry (or other data structures, like in 'perf sched') references
      it.
      
      So the rule is the same for refcounts + protected trees in the kernel,
      get the tree lock, find object, bump the refcount, drop the tree lock,
      return, use object, drop the refcount if no more use of it is needed,
      keep it if storing it in some other data structure, drop when releasing
      that data structure.
      
      I.e. pair "t = machine__find(new)_thread()" with a "thread__put(t)", and
      "perf_event__preprocess_sample(&al)" with "addr_location__put(&al)".
      
      The addr_location__put() one is because as we return references to
      several data structures, we may end up adding more reference counting
      for the other data structures and then we'll drop it at
      addr_location__put() time.

      perf tools: Add parse_events_error interface · b39b8393
      Jiri Olsa 提交于
      Adding support to return error information from parse_events function.
      Following struct will be populated by parse_events function on return:
      
        struct parse_events_error {
          int   idx;
          char *str;
          char *help;
        };
      
      where 'idx' is the position in the string where the parsing failed,
      'str' contains dynamically allocated error string describing the error
      and 'help' is optional help string.
      
      The change contains reporting function, which currently does not display
      anything. The code changes to supply error data for specific event types
      are coming in next patches. However this is what the expected output is:
      
        $ sudo perf record -e 'sched:krava' ls
        event syntax error: 'sched:krava'
                             \___ unknown tracepoint
        ...
      
        $ perf record -e 'cpu/even=0x1/' ls
        event syntax error: 'cpu/even=0x1/'
                                 \___ unknown term
      
        valid terms: pc,any,inv,edge,cmask,event,in_tx,ldlat,umask,in_tx_cp,offcore_rsp,config,config1,config2,name,period,branch_type
        ...
      
        $ perf record -e cycles,cache-mises ls
        event syntax error: '..es,cache-mises'
                                       \___ parser error
        ...
      
      The output functions cut the beginning of the event string so the error
      starts up to 10th character and cut the end of the string of it crosses
      the terminal width.
