Merge tag 'spdx_identifiers-4.14-rc8' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core

Pull initial SPDX identifiers from Greg KH: "License cleanup: add SPDX license identifiers to some files 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).

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.

kbuild: Fix optimization level choice default

2017-10-07T11:08:05Z

The choice containing the CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE symbol accidentally added a "CONFIG_" prefix when trying to make it the default, selecting an undefined symbol as the default. The mistake is harmless here: Since the default symbol is not visible, the choice falls back on using the visible symbol as the default instead, which is CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_PERFORMANCE, as intended.

Pull percpu updates from Tejun Heo: "A lot of changes for percpu this time around. percpu inherited the same area allocator from the original pre-virtual-address-mapped implementation. This was from the time when percpu allocator wasn't used all that much and the implementation was focused on simplicity, with the unfortunate computational complexity of O(number of areas allocated from the chunk) per alloc / free. With the increase in percpu usage, we're hitting cases where the lack of scalability is hurting. The most prominent one right now is bpf perpcu map creation / destruction which may allocate and free a lot of entries consecutively and it's likely that the problem will become more prominent in the future. To address the issue, Dennis replaced the area allocator with hinted bitmap allocator which is more consistent. While the new allocator does perform a bit worse in some cases, it outperforms the old allocator way more than an order of magnitude in other more common scenarios while staying mostly flat in CPU overhead and completely flat in memory consumption" * 'for-4.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu: (27 commits) percpu: update header to contain bitmap allocator explanation. percpu: update pcpu_find_block_fit to use an iterator percpu: use metadata blocks to update the chunk contig hint percpu: update free path to take advantage of contig hints percpu: update alloc path to only scan if contig hints are broken percpu: keep track of the best offset for contig hints percpu: skip chunks if the alloc does not fit in the contig hint percpu: add first_bit to keep track of the first free in the bitmap percpu: introduce bitmap metadata blocks percpu: replace area map allocator with bitmap percpu: generalize bitmap (un)populated iterators percpu: increase minimum percpu allocation size and align first regions percpu: introduce nr_empty_pop_pages to help empty page accounting percpu: change the number of pages marked in the first_chunk pop bitmap percpu: combine percpu address checks percpu: modify base_addr to be region specific percpu: setup_first_chunk rename schunk/dchunk to chunk percpu: end chunk area maps page aligned for the populated bitmap percpu: unify allocation of schunk and dchunk percpu: setup_first_chunk remove dyn_size and consolidate logic ...

mm, memory_hotplug: drop zone from build_all_zonelists

2017-09-07T00:27:25Z

build_all_zonelists gets a zone parameter to initialize zone's pagesets. There is only a single user which gives a non-NULL zone parameter and that one doesn't really need the rest of the build_all_zonelists (see commit 6dcd73d7011b ("memory-hotplug: allocate zone's pcp before onlining pages")). Therefore remove setup_zone_pageset from build_all_zonelists and call it from its only user directly. This will also remove a pointless zonlists rebuilding which is always good.

mm: add SLUB free list pointer obfuscation

2017-09-07T00:27:24Z

This SLUB free list pointer obfuscation code is modified from Brad Spengler/PaX Team's code in the last public patch of grsecurity/PaX based on my understanding of the code. Changes or omissions from the original code are mine and don't reflect the original grsecurity/PaX code. This adds a per-cache random value to SLUB caches that is XORed with their freelist pointer address and value. This adds nearly zero overhead and frustrates the very common heap overflow exploitation method of overwriting freelist pointers. A recent example of the attack is written up here: http://cyseclabs.com/blog/cve-2016-6187-heap-off-by-one-exploit and there is a section dedicated to the technique the book "A Guide to Kernel Exploitation: Attacking the Core". This is based on patches by Daniel Micay, and refactored to minimize the use of #ifdef. With 200-count cycles of "hackbench -g 20 -l 1000" I saw the following run times: before: mean 10.11882499999999999995 variance .03320378329145728642 stdev .18221905304181911048 after: mean 10.12654000000000000014 variance .04700556623115577889 stdev .21680767106160192064 The difference gets lost in the noise, but if the above is to be taken literally, using CONFIG_FREELIST_HARDENED is 0.07% slower.
