2019-12-11isdn: capi: dead code removalArnd Bergmann
The staging isdn drivers are gone, and CONFIG_BT_CMTP is now the only user. This means a lot of the code in the subsystem has no remaining callers and can be removed. Change the capi user space front-end to be part of kernelcapi, and the combined module to only be compiled if BT_CMTP is also enabled, then remove the interfaces that have no remaining callers. As the notifier list and the capi_drivers list have no callers outside of kcapi.c, the implementation gets much simpler. Some definitions from the include/linux/*.h headers are only needed internally and are moved to kcapi.h.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman
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.

2010-02-16CAPI: Rework controller state notifierJan Kiszka
Another step towards proper locking: Rework the callback provided to capidrv for controller state changes. This is so far attached to an application, which would require us to hold the corresponding lock across notification calls. But there is no direct relation between a controller up/down event and an application, so let's decouple them and provide a notifier call chain for those events instead. This notifier chain is first of all used internally. Here we request the highest priority to unsure that housekeeping work is done before any other notifications. The chain is exported via [un]register_capictr_notifier to our only user, capidrv, to replace the racy and unfixable capi20_set_callback.

None of these files use any of the functionality promised by asm/semaphore.h. It's possible that they (or some user of them) rely on it dragging in some unrelated header file, but I can't build all these files, so we'll have to fix any build failures as they come up.

2004-04-11[PATCH] i4l: kernelcapi receive workqueue and locking reworkAndrew Morton
From: Armin Schindler <armin@melware.de> With this patch the ISDN kernel CAPI code uses a per application workqueue with proper locking to prevent message re-ordering due to the fact a workqueue may run on another CPU at the same time. Also some locks for internal data is added. Removed global recv_queue work, use per application workqueue. Added proper locking mechanisms for application, controller and application workqueue function. Increased max. number of possible applications and controllers.
2002-05-17ISDN: CAPI: Get rid of capi_signal mechanismKai Germaschewski
On arrival of a new message, kernelcapi used to call capi20_appl::signal(), which, from the application, would call back to capi20_get_message(). So we rather just push the message down directly, saving this detour.
2002-05-17ISDN: CAPI use struct capi20_appl * in signal callbackKai Germaschewski
Instead of passing an opaque handle, pass the actual struct capi20_appl, which is now known to the applications. Applications can store a pointer to the private data into struct capi20_appl::private.
2002-05-17ISDN: CAPI: Pass struct capi_appl * instead of indexKai Germaschewski
Now that we have the struct capi_appl *, let's pass this around instead of just an index which would mean another useless lookup.
2002-05-17ISDN: Have the CAPI application alloc struct capi_applKai Germaschewski
Inside the kernel, we rather go the standard way than converting to/from indices to the actual data structs all the time.
2002-05-17ISDN: CAPI: Remove capi_interface_user etc.Kai Germaschewski
It's not used anymore, registering/unregistering just happens on a per-application basis.
2002-05-17ISDN: CAPI: Move the notification callbackKai Germaschewski
The callback to be notified of added/removed controllers is logically per application. This will be replaced by the standardized mechanism anyway, so the temporary capi20_set_callback will fortunately vanish later.
2002-05-17ISDN: Export CAPI user interface directlyKai Germaschewski
Why pass the callbacks via a struct when we can just call them directly?
2002-05-11ISDN: Init ISA AVM CAPI drivers at module load timeKai Germaschewski
Don't use a special CAPI solution to tell the drivers about ISA cards but use module parameters, just as other drivers do. Internally use struct pci_dev to save that data - hopefully one day the device tree will provide a nicer way to achieve this.
2002-05-07ISDN: maintain outstanding CAPI messages in the driversKai Germaschewski
It's up to the drivers to maintain their list of buffered messages themselves. As most drivers can share common code, provide it in capilib.o, inside of the module kernelcapi.o
2002-05-07ISDN: CAPI remove NCCI up/down notificationKai Germaschewski
Applications really ought to take care of maintaing the state themselves, instead of cheating by listening to controller private messages.
