commit 1138b6718ff74d2a934459643e3754423d23b5e2 upstream.

Helge noticed that the address of the os_hpmc handler was not being
correctly calculated in the hpmc macro.  As a result, PDCE_CHECK would
fail to call os_hpmc:

&lt;Cpu2&gt; 030010d502e00000  0000000000000000  CC_CPU_STOP

The address problem can be seen by dumping the fault vector:

0000000040159000 &lt;fault_vector_20&gt;:
    40159000:   63 6f 77 73     stb r15,-2447(dp)
    40159004:   20 63 61 6e     ldil L%b747000,r3
    40159008:   20 66 6c 79     ldil L%-1c3b3000,r3
        ...
    40159020:   08 00 02 40     nop
    40159024:   20 6e 60 02     ldil L%15d000,r3
    40159028:   34 63 00 00     ldo 0(r3),r3
    4015902c:   e8 60 c0 02     bv,n r0(r3)
    40159030:   08 00 02 40     nop
    40159034:   00 00 00 00     break 0,0
    40159038:   c0 00 70 00     bb,*&lt; r0,sar,40159840 &lt;fault_vector_20+0x840&gt;
    4015903c:   00 00 00 00     break 0,0

Location 40159038 should contain the physical address of os_hpmc:

000000004015d000 &lt;os_hpmc&gt;:
    4015d000:   08 1a 02 43     copy r26,r3
    4015d004:   01 c0 08 a4     mfctl iva,r4
    4015d008:   48 85 00 68     ldw 34(r4),r5

This patch moves the address setup into initialize_ivt to resolve the
above problem.  I tested the change by dumping the HPMC entry after setup:

0000000040209020:  8000240
0000000040209024: 206a2004
0000000040209028: 34630ac0
000000004020902c: e860c002
0000000040209030:  8000240
0000000040209034: 1bdddce6
0000000040209038:   15d000
000000004020903c:      1a0

Pull siginfo updates from Eric Biederman:
 "This set of changes close the known issues with setting si_code to an
  invalid value, and with not fully initializing struct siginfo. There
  remains work to do on nds32, arc, unicore32, powerpc, arm, arm64, ia64
  and x86 to get the code that generates siginfo into a simpler and more
  maintainable state. Most of that work involves refactoring the signal
  handling code and thus careful code review.

  Also not included is the work to shrink the in kernel version of
  struct siginfo. That depends on getting the number of places that
  directly manipulate struct siginfo under control, as it requires the
  introduction of struct kernel_siginfo for the in kernel things.

  Overall this set of changes looks like it is making good progress, and
  with a little luck I will be wrapping up the siginfo work next
  development cycle"

Filling in struct siginfo before calling force_sig_info a tedious and
error prone process, where once in a great while the wrong fields
are filled out, and siginfo has been inconsistently cleared.

Simplify this process by using the helper force_sig_fault.  Which
takes as a parameters all of the information it needs, ensures
all of the fiddly bits of filling in struct siginfo are done properly
and then calls force_sig_info.

In short about a 5 line reduction in code for every time force_sig_info
is called, which makes the calling function clearer.

<title>signal: Ensure every siginfo we send has all bits initialized</title>

<content type='text'>
Call clear_siginfo to ensure every stack allocated siginfo is properly
initialized before being passed to the signal sending functions.

Note: It is not safe to depend on C initializers to initialize struct
siginfo on the stack because C is allowed to skip holes when
initializing a structure.

The initialization of struct siginfo in tracehook_report_syscall_exit
was moved from the helper user_single_step_siginfo into
tracehook_report_syscall_exit itself, to make it clear that the local
variable siginfo gets fully initialized.

In a few cases the scope of struct siginfo has been reduced to make it
clear that siginfo siginfo is not used on other paths in the function
in which it is declared.

Instances of using memset to initialize siginfo have been replaced
with calls clear_siginfo for clarity.

<content type='text'>
Setting si_code to 0 results in a userspace seeing an si_code of 0.
This is the same si_code as SI_USER.  Posix and common sense requires
that SI_USER not be a signal specific si_code.  As such this use of 0
for the si_code is a pretty horribly broken ABI.

Further use of si_code == 0 guaranteed that copy_siginfo_to_user saw a
value of __SI_KILL and now sees a value of SIL_KILL with the result
that uid and pid fields are copied and which might copying the si_addr
field by accident but certainly not by design.  Making this a very
flakey implementation.

Utilizing FPE_FIXME siginfo_layout will now return SIL_FAULT and the
appropriate fields will reliably be copied.

This bug is 13 years old and parsic machines are no longer being built
so I don't know if it possible or worth fixing it.  But it is at least
worth documenting this so other architectures don't make the same
mistake.

Possible ABI fixes includee:
  - Send the signal without siginfo
  - Don't generate a signal
  - Possibly assign and use an appropriate si_code
  - Don't handle cases which can't happen

<title>License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license</title>
<updated>2017-11-02T10:10:55Z</updated>

<name>Greg Kroah-Hartman</name>

<published>2017-11-01T14:07:57Z</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.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.

<title>parisc: Add PDCE_CHECK instruction to HPMC handler</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=8d771b143fe2e3941fc8a32926d21410004578c0'/>
<id>urn:sha1:8d771b143fe2e3941fc8a32926d21410004578c0</id>
<content type='text'>
According to the programming note at page 1-31 of the PA 1.1 Firmware
Architecture document, one should use the PDC_INSTR firmware function to
get the instruction that invokes a PDCE_CHECK in the HPMC handler.  This
patch follows this note and sets the instruction which has been a nop up
until now.
Testing on a C3000 and C8000 showed that this firmware call isn't
implemented on those machines, so maybe it's only needed on older ones.

We are going to split &lt;linux/sched/debug.h&gt; out of &lt;linux/sched.h&gt;, which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.

Create a trivial placeholder &lt;linux/sched/debug.h&gt; file that just
maps to &lt;linux/sched.h&gt; to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.
