<content type='text'>
The current DEFINE_WW_MUTEX() macro fails to properly set up the lockdep
key of the ww_mutexes causing potential circular locking dependency
splat. Though it is possible to add more macro magic to make it work,
but the result is rather ugly.

Since locktorture was the only user of DEFINE_WW_MUTEX() and the
previous commit has just removed its use. It is easier to just remove
the macro to force future users of ww_mutexes to use ww_mutex_init()
for initialization.

<content type='text'>
In ww_acquire_init(), mutex_acquire() is gated by CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC.
The dep_map in the ww_acquire_ctx structure is also gated by the
same config. However mutex_release() in ww_acquire_fini() is gated by
CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES. It is possible to set CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES without
setting CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC though it is an unlikely configuration.
That may cause a compilation error as dep_map isn't defined in this
case. Fix this potential problem by enclosing mutex_release() inside
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC.

<content type='text'>
By using lockdep_assert_*() from seqlock.h, the spaghetti monster
attacked.

Attack back by reducing seqlock.h dependencies from two key high level headers:

 - &lt;linux/seqlock.h&gt;:               -Remove &lt;linux/ww_mutex.h&gt;
 - &lt;linux/time.h&gt;:                  -Remove &lt;linux/seqlock.h&gt;
 - &lt;linux/sched.h&gt;:                 +Add    &lt;linux/seqlock.h&gt;

The price was to add it to sched.h ...

Core header fallout, we add direct header dependencies instead of gaining them
parasitically from higher level headers:

 - &lt;linux/dynamic_queue_limits.h&gt;:  +Add &lt;asm/bug.h&gt;
 - &lt;linux/hrtimer.h&gt;:               +Add &lt;linux/seqlock.h&gt;
 - &lt;linux/ktime.h&gt;:                 +Add &lt;asm/bug.h&gt;
 - &lt;linux/lockdep.h&gt;:               +Add &lt;linux/smp.h&gt;
 - &lt;linux/sched.h&gt;:                 +Add &lt;linux/seqlock.h&gt;
 - &lt;linux/videodev2.h&gt;:             +Add &lt;linux/kernel.h&gt;

Arch headers fallout:

 - PARISC: &lt;asm/timex.h&gt;:           +Add &lt;asm/special_insns.h&gt;
 - SH:     &lt;asm/io.h&gt;:              +Add &lt;asm/page.h&gt;
 - SPARC:  &lt;asm/timer_64.h&gt;:        +Add &lt;uapi/asm/asi.h&gt;
 - SPARC:  &lt;asm/vvar.h&gt;:            +Add &lt;asm/processor.h&gt;, &lt;asm/barrier.h&gt;
                                    -Remove &lt;linux/seqlock.h&gt;
 - X86:    &lt;asm/fixmap.h&gt;:          +Add &lt;asm/pgtable_types.h&gt;
                                    -Remove &lt;asm/acpi.h&gt;

There's also a bunch of parasitic header dependency fallout in .c files, not listed
separately.

[ mingo: Extended the changelog, split up &amp; fixed the original patch. ]

<title>locking: Implement an algorithm choice for Wound-Wait mutexes</title>

<id>urn:sha1:08295b3b5beec9aac0f7a9db86f0fc3792039da3</id>
<content type='text'>
The current Wound-Wait mutex algorithm is actually not Wound-Wait but
Wait-Die. Implement also Wound-Wait as a per-ww-class choice. Wound-Wait
is, contrary to Wait-Die a preemptive algorithm and is known to generate
fewer backoffs. Testing reveals that this is true if the
number of simultaneous contending transactions is small.
As the number of simultaneous contending threads increases, Wait-Wound
becomes inferior to Wait-Die in terms of elapsed time.
Possibly due to the larger number of held locks of sleeping transactions.

Update documentation and callers.

<title>License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.stealer.net/cgit.cgi/user/sven/linux.git/commit/?id=b24413180f5600bcb3bb70fbed5cf186b60864bd'/>
<id>urn:sha1:b24413180f5600bcb3bb70fbed5cf186b60864bd</id>
<content type='text'>
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 &amp; 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 &gt;5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if &lt;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.

... but we cannot just litter the kernel build log with such warnings.

These need to be fixed separately - turn off the warning for now.

<title>locking/ww_mutex: Fix compilation of __WW_MUTEX_INITIALIZER</title>

From conflicting macro parameters, passing the wrong name to
__MUTEX_INITIALIZER and a stray '\', #define __WW_MUTEX_INITIALIZER was
very unhappy.

One unnecessary change was to choose to pass &amp;ww_class instead of
implicitly taking the address of the class within the macro.

Keep the documentation in the header file since there is no good place
for it in mutex.c: there are two rather different implementations with
different EXPORT_SYMBOLs for each function.
