<title>License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license</title>

<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.

Just wire up the generic TCG OPAL infrastructure to the SCSI disk driver
and the Security In/Out commands.

Note that I don't know of any actual SCSI disks that do support TCG OPAL,
but this is required to support ATA disks through libata.

<title>scsi: sd: Separate zeroout and discard command choices</title>
<updated>2017-04-08T17:25:38Z</updated>
<author>
<name>Martin K. Petersen</name>
</author>
<published>2017-04-05T17:21:24Z</published>
<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=e6bd931284b4b9bc17a2995257a0769370bc5202'/>
<id>urn:sha1:e6bd931284b4b9bc17a2995257a0769370bc5202</id>
<content type='text'>
Now that zeroout and discards are distinct operations we need to
separate the policy of choosing the appropriate command. Create a
zeroing_mode which can be one of:

write:			Zeroout assist not present, use regular WRITE
writesame:		Allow WRITE SAME(10/16) with a zeroed payload
writesame_16_unmap:	Allow WRITE SAME(16) with UNMAP
writesame_10_unmap:	Allow WRITE SAME(10) with UNMAP

The last two are conditional on the device being thin provisioned with
LBPRZ=1 and LBPWS=1 or LBPWS10=1 respectively.

Whether to set the UNMAP bit or not depends on the REQ_NOUNMAP flag. And
if none of the _unmap variants are supported, regular WRITE SAME will be
used if the device supports it.

The zeroout_mode is exported in sysfs and the detected mode for a given
device can be overridden using the string constants above.

With this change in place we can now issue WRITE SAME(16) with UNMAP set
for block zeroing applications that require hard guarantees and
logical_block_size granularity. And at the same time use the UNMAP
command with the device's preferred granulary and alignment for discard
operations.

<title>scsi: scsi_error: count medium access timeout only once per EH run</title>

<content type='text'>
The current medium access timeout counter will be increased for
each command, so if there are enough failed commands we'll hit
the medium access timeout for even a single device failure and
the following kernel message is displayed:

sd H:C:T:L: [sdXY] Medium access timeout failure. Offlining disk!

Fix this by making the timeout per EH run, ie the counter will
only be increased once per device and EH run.

<title>sd: Implement support for ZBC devices</title>

<id>urn:sha1:89d9475610771b5e5fe1879075f0fc9ba6e3755f</id>
<content type='text'>
Implement ZBC support functions to setup zoned disks, both
host-managed and host-aware models. Only zoned disks that satisfy
the following conditions are supported:
1) All zones are the same size, with the exception of an eventual
   last smaller runt zone.
2) For host-managed disks, reads are unrestricted (reads are not
   failed due to zone or write pointer alignement constraints).
Zoned disks that do not satisfy these 2 conditions are setup with
a capacity of 0 to prevent their use.

The function sd_zbc_read_zones, called from sd_revalidate_disk,
checks that the device satisfies the above two constraints. This
function may also change the disk capacity previously set by
sd_read_capacity for devices reporting only the capacity of
conventional zones at the beginning of the LBA range (i.e. devices
reporting rc_basis set to 0).

The capacity message output was moved out of sd_read_capacity into
a new function sd_print_capacity to include this eventual capacity
change by sd_zbc_read_zones. This new function also includes a call
to sd_zbc_print_zones to display the number of zones and zone size
of the device.
