<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.

We have moved the Ux500 over to use the generic DT based
cpufreq driver, so delete the old custom driver.

At the same time select CPUFREQ_DT from the machine's
Kconfig in order to satisfy the "default ARCH_U8500"
selection on the old driver.

On tango platforms, firmware configures the CPU clock, and Linux is
then only allowed to use the cpu_clk_divider to change the frequency.
Build the OPP table dynamically at init, in order to support whatever
firmware throws at us.

MT2701/MT7623 is a 32-bit ARMv7 based quad-core (4 * Cortex-A7) with
single cluster and this hardware is also compatible with the existing
driver through enabling CPU frequency feature with operating-points-v2
bindings. Also, this driver actually supports all MediaTek SoCs, the
Kconfig menu entry and file name itself should be updated with more
generic name to drop "MT8173"

Moving the cooling code into the cpufreq driver caused a possible build failure
when the cpu_thermal helper code is a loadable module or disabled:

drivers/cpufreq/dbx500-cpufreq.o: In function `dbx500_cpufreq_ready':
dbx500-cpufreq.c:(.text.dbx500_cpufreq_ready+0x4): undefined reference to `cpufreq_cooling_register'

This adds the same dependency that we have in other cpufreq drivers,
forcing the driver to be disabled when we can't possibly link it.

<content type='text'>
Add a new cpufreq driver for Tegra186 (and likely later).
The CPUs are organized into two clusters, Denver and A57,
with two and four cores respectively. CPU frequency can be
adjusted by writing the desired rate divisor and a voltage
hint to a special per-core register.

The frequency of each core can be set individually; however,
this is just a hint as all CPUs in a cluster will run at
the maximum rate of non-idle CPUs in the cluster.

<title>cpufreq: ti: Add cpufreq driver to determine available OPPs at runtime</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e13cf046cd70894393a1085ca39da7ef751353fb</id>
<content type='text'>
Some TI SoCs, like those in the AM335x, AM437x, DRA7x, and AM57x families,
have different OPPs available for the MPU depending on which specific
variant of the SoC is in use. This can be determined through use of the
revision and an eFuse register present in the silicon. Introduce a
ti-cpufreq driver that can read the aformentioned values and provide
them as version matching data to the opp framework. Through this the
opp-supported-hw dt binding that is part of the operating-points-v2
table can be used to indicate availability of OPPs for each device.

This driver also creates the "cpufreq-dt" platform_device after passing
the version matching data to the OPP framework so that the cpufreq-dt
handles the actual cpufreq implementation. Even without the necessary
data to pass the version matching data the driver will still create this
device to maintain backwards compatibility with operating-points v1
tables.

This driver supports voltage and frequency scaling on Broadcom STB SoCs
using AVS firmware with DFS and DVFS support.

Actual frequency or voltage scaling is done exclusively by the AVS
firmware. The driver merely provides a standard CPUfreq interface to
other kernel components and userland, and instructs the AVS firmware to
perform frequency or voltage changes on its behalf.
