License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

2017-11-02T10:10:55Z

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. Reviewed-by: Kate Stewart Reviewed-by: Philippe Ombredanne Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki: "This time (again) cpufreq gets the majority of changes which mostly are driver updates (including a major consolidation of intel_pstate), some schedutil governor modifications and core cleanups. There also are some changes in the system suspend area, mostly related to diagnostics and debug messages plus some renames of things related to suspend-to-idle. One major change here is that suspend-to-idle is now going to be preferred over S3 on systems where the ACPI tables indicate to do so and provide requsite support (the Low Power Idle S0 _DSM in particular). The system sleep documentation and the tools related to it are updated too. The rest is a few cpuidle changes (nothing major), devfreq updates, generic power domains (genpd) framework updates and a few assorted modifications elsewhere. Specifics: - Drop the P-state selection algorithm based on a PID controller from intel_pstate and make it use the same P-state selection method (based on the CPU load) for all types of systems in the active mode (Rafael Wysocki, Srinivas Pandruvada). - Rework the cpufreq core and governors to make it possible to take cross-CPU utilization updates into account and modify the schedutil governor to actually do so (Viresh Kumar). - Clean up the handling of transition latency information in the cpufreq core and untangle it from the information on which drivers cannot do dynamic frequency switching (Viresh Kumar). - Add support for new SoCs (MT2701/MT7623 and MT7622) to the mediatek cpufreq driver and update its DT bindings (Sean Wang). - Modify the cpufreq dt-platdev driver to autimatically create cpufreq devices for the new (v2) Operating Performance Points (OPP) DT bindings and update its whitelist of supported systems (Viresh Kumar, Shubhrajyoti Datta, Marc Gonzalez, Khiem Nguyen, Finley Xiao). - Add support for Ux500 to the cpufreq-dt driver and drop the obsolete dbx500 cpufreq driver (Linus Walleij, Arnd Bergmann). - Add new SoC (R8A7795) support to the cpufreq rcar driver (Khiem Nguyen). - Fix and clean up assorted issues in the cpufreq drivers and core (Arvind Yadav, Christophe Jaillet, Colin Ian King, Gustavo Silva, Julia Lawall, Leonard Crestez, Rob Herring, Sudeep Holla). - Update the IO-wait boost handling in the schedutil governor to make it less aggressive (Joel Fernandes). - Rework system suspend diagnostics to make it print fewer messages to the kernel log by default, add a sysfs knob to allow more suspend-related messages to be printed and add Low Power S0 Idle constraints checks to the ACPI suspend-to-idle code (Rafael Wysocki, Srinivas Pandruvada). - Prefer suspend-to-idle over S3 on ACPI-based systems with the ACPI_FADT_LOW_POWER_S0 flag set and the Low Power Idle S0 _DSM interface present in the ACPI tables (Rafael Wysocki). - Update documentation related to system sleep and rename a number of items in the code to make it cleare that they are related to suspend-to-idle (Rafael Wysocki). - Export a variable allowing device drivers to check the target system sleep state from the core system suspend code (Florian Fainelli). - Clean up the cpuidle subsystem to handle the polling state on x86 in a more straightforward way and to use %pOF instead of full_name (Rafael Wysocki, Rob Herring). - Update the devfreq framework to fix and clean up a few minor issues (Chanwoo Choi, Rob Herring). - Extend diagnostics in the generic power domains (genpd) framework and clean it up slightly (Thara Gopinath, Rob Herring). - Fix and clean up a couple of issues in the operating performance points (OPP) framework (Viresh Kumar, Waldemar Rymarkiewicz). - Add support for RV1108 to the rockchip-io Adaptive Voltage Scaling (AVS) driver (David Wu). - Fix the usage of notifiers in CPU power management on some platforms (Alex Shi). - Update the pm-graph system suspend/hibernation and boot profiling utility (Todd Brandt). - Make it possible to run the cpupower utility without CPU0 (Prarit Bhargava)" * tag 'pm-4.14-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (87 commits) cpuidle: Make drivers initialize polling state cpuidle: Move polling state initialization code to separate file cpuidle: Eliminate the CPUIDLE_DRIVER_STATE_START symbol cpufreq: imx6q: Fix imx6sx low frequency support cpufreq: speedstep-lib: make several arrays static, makes code smaller PM: docs: Delete the obsolete states.txt document PM: docs: Describe high-level PM strategies and sleep states PM / devfreq: Fix memory leak when fail to register device PM / devfreq: Add dependency on PM_OPP PM / devfreq: Move private devfreq_update_stats() into devfreq PM / devfreq: Convert to using %pOF instead of full_name PM / AVS: rockchip-io: add io selectors and supplies for RV1108 cpufreq: ti: Fix 'of_node_put' being called twice in error handling path cpufreq: dt-platdev: Drop few entries from whitelist cpufreq: dt-platdev: Automatically create cpufreq device with OPP v2 ARM: ux500: don't select CPUFREQ_DT cpuidle: Convert to using %pOF instead of full_name cpufreq: Convert to using %pOF instead of full_name PM / Domains: Convert to using %pOF instead of full_name cpufreq: Cap the default transition delay value to 10 ms ...

alarmtimer: Ensure RTC module is not unloaded

2017-08-31T19:36:45Z

When registering the rtc device to be used to handle alarm timers, get_device is used to ensure the device doesn't go away but the module can still be unloaded. Call try_module_get to ensure the rtc driver will not go away.

time: Fix ktime_get_raw() incorrect base accumulation

2017-08-26T14:06:12Z

In comqit fc6eead7c1e2 ("time: Clean up CLOCK_MONOTONIC_RAW time handling"), the following code got mistakenly added to the update of the raw timekeeper: /* Update the monotonic raw base */ seconds = tk->raw_sec; nsec = (u32)(tk->tkr_raw.xtime_nsec >> tk->tkr_raw.shift); tk->tkr_raw.base = ns_to_ktime(seconds * NSEC_PER_SEC + nsec); Which adds the raw_sec value and the shifted down raw xtime_nsec to the base value. But the read function adds the shifted down tk->tkr_raw.xtime_nsec value another time, The result of this is that ktime_get_raw() users (which are all internal users) see the raw time move faster then it should (the rate at which can vary with the current size of tkr_raw.xtime_nsec), which has resulted in at least problems with graphics rendering performance. The change tried to match the monotonic base update logic: seconds = (u64)(tk->xtime_sec + tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_sec); nsec = (u32) tk->wall_to_monotonic.tv_nsec; tk->tkr_mono.base = ns_to_ktime(seconds * NSEC_PER_SEC + nsec); Which adds the wall_to_monotonic.tv_nsec value, but not the tk->tkr_mono.xtime_nsec value to the base. To fix this, simplify the tkr_raw.base accumulation to only accumulate the raw_sec portion, and do not include the tkr_raw.xtime_nsec portion, which will be added at read time.

timers: Fix excessive granularity of new timers after a nohz idle

2017-08-24T09:40:18Z

When a timer base is idle, it is forwarded when a new timer is added to ensure that granularity does not become excessive. When not idle, the timer tick is expected to increment the base. However there are several problems: - If an existing timer is modified, the base is forwarded only after the index is calculated. - The base is not forwarded by add_timer_on. - There is a window after a timer is restarted from a nohz idle, after it is marked not-idle and before the timer tick on this CPU, where a timer may be added but the ancient base does not get forwarded. These result in excessive granularity (a 1 jiffy timeout can blow out to 100s of jiffies), which cause the rcu lockup detector to trigger, among other things. Fix this by keeping track of whether the timer base has been idle since it was last run or forwarded, and if so then forward it before adding a new timer. There is still a case where mod_timer optimises the case of a pending timer mod with the same expiry time, where the timer can see excessive granularity relative to the new, shorter interval. A comment is added, but it's not changed because it is an important fastpath for networking. This has been tested and found to fix the RCU softlockup messages. Testing was also done with tracing to measure requested versus achieved wakeup latencies for all non-deferrable timers in an idle system (with no lockup watchdogs running). Wakeup latency relative to absolute latency is calculated (note this suffers from round-up skew at low absolute times) and analysed: max avg std upstream 506.0 1.20 4.68 patched 2.0 1.08 0.15 The bug was noticed due to the lockup detector Kconfig changes dropping it out of people's .configs and resulting in larger base clk skew When the lockup detectors are enabled, no CPU can go idle for longer than 4 seconds, which limits the granularity errors. Sub-optimal timer behaviour is observable on a smaller scale in that case: max avg std upstream 9.0 1.05 0.19 patched 2.0 1.04 0.11 Fixes: Fixes: a683f390b93f ("timers: Forward the wheel clock whenever possible") Signed-off-by: Nicholas Piggin Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Tested-by: Jonathan Cameron Tested-by: David Miller Cc: dzickus@redhat.com Cc: sfr@canb.auug.org.au Cc: mpe@ellerman.id.au Cc: Stephen Boyd Cc: linuxarm@huawei.com Cc: abdhalee@linux.vnet.ibm.com Cc: John Stultz Cc: akpm@linux-foundation.org Cc: paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com Cc: torvalds@linux-foundation.org Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170822084348.21436-1-npiggin@gmail.com
