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

ARM: ep93xx: switch to SPARSEMEM

2017-09-21T09:21:24Z

The EP93xx has four chip selects that can be used for the SDRAM memory. These chip selects are decoded to specify an address domain: SDCS3 0x00000000-0x0fffffff with Boot Option ASDO=1 SDCS0 0xc0000000-0xcfffffff SDCS1 0xd0000000-0xdfffffff SDCS2 0xe0000000-x0efffffff SDCS3 0xf0000000-0xffffffff with Boot Option ASDO=0 Because of the row/column/bank architecture of SDRAM, the mapping of these memories into the processor's memory space is discontiguous. Most ep93xx systems only use one of the chip selects. For these systems, ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL has worked fine to handle the discontiguous memory. But, some of the TS-72xx boards use multiple chip selects. The TS-7300 in particular uses SDCS3 (with ASDO=1) and SDCS2. On that system with ARCH_HAS_HOLES_MEMORYMODEL the SDCS2 memory does not get handled correctly and results in the system not booting. Change the EP93xx to ARCH_SPARSEMEM_ENABLE. This handles the discontiguous memory for all configurations. This has been tested on the following ep93xx platforms: EDB9307A with 64 MiB on SDCS0 Vision EP9307 with 64 MiB on SDCS0 TS-7300 with 64 MiB on SDCS3 (with ASDO=1) and 64 MiB on SDCS2 sim.one with 64 MiB on SDCS0 Signed-off-by: H Hartley Sweeten Tested-by: Linus Walleij Cc: Russell King Tested-by: Florian Fainelli Tested-by: Alexander Sverdlin Signed-off-by: Linus Walleij

ARM: XIP kernel: store .data compressed in ROM

2017-09-10T23:34:53Z

The .data segment stored in ROM is only copied to RAM once at boot time and never referenced afterwards. This is arguably a suboptimal usage of ROM resources. This patch allows for compressing the .data segment before storing it into ROM and decompressing it to RAM rather than simply copying it, saving on precious ROM space. Because global data is not available yet (obviously) we must allocate decompressor workspace memory on the stack. The .bss area is used as a stack area for that purpose before it is cleared. The required stack frame is 9568 bytes for __inflate_kernel_data() alone, so make sure the .bss is large enough to cope with that plus extra room for called functions or fail the build. Those numbers were picked arbitrarily based on the above 9568 byte stack frame: 10240 (2.5 * PAGE_SIZE): used to override -Wframe-larger-than whose default value is 1024. 12288 (3 * PAGE_SIZE): minimum .bss size to contain the stack.
