stacktrace: move filter_irq_stacks() to kernel/stacktrace.c

2021-11-06T20:30:43+00:00

filter_irq_stacks() has little to do with the stackdepot implementation, except that it is usually used by users (such as KASAN) of stackdepot to reduce the stack trace. However, filter_irq_stacks() itself is not useful without a stack trace as obtained by stack_trace_save() and friends. Therefore, move filter_irq_stacks() to kernel/stacktrace.c, so that new users of filter_irq_stacks() do not have to start depending on STACKDEPOT only for filter_irq_stacks().

2021-03-10T14:52:31+00:00

Currently arch_stack_walk_reliable() is documented with an identical comment in both x86 and S/390 implementations which is a bit redundant.

stacktrace: Remove reliable argument from arch_stack_walk() callback

2020-09-18T13:24:16+00:00

Currently the callback passed to arch_stack_walk() has an argument called reliable passed to it to indicate if the stack entry is reliable, a comment says that this is used by some printk() consumers. However in the current kernel none of the arch_stack_walk() implementations ever set this flag to true and the only callback implementation we have is in the generic stacktrace code which ignores the flag. It therefore appears that this flag is redundant so we can simplify and clarify things by removing it.

stacktrace: cleanup inconsistent variable type

2020-06-11T02:14:18+00:00

Modify the variable type of 'skip' member of struct stack_trace. In theory, the 'skip' variable type should be unsigned int. There are two reasons: - The 'skip' only has two situation, 1)Positive value, 2)Zero - The 'skip' of struct stack_trace has inconsistent type with struct stack_trace_data, it makes a bit confusion in the relationship between struct stack_trace and stack_trace_data.

stacktrace: Provide common infrastructure

2019-04-29T10:37:57+00:00

All architectures which support stacktrace carry duplicated code and do the stack storage and filtering at the architecture side. Provide a consolidated interface with a callback function for consuming the stack entries provided by the architecture specific stack walker. This removes lots of duplicated code and allows to implement better filtering than 'skip number of entries' in the future without touching any architecture specific code.

No more users of the struct stack_trace based interfaces. Remove them. Remove the macro stubs for !CONFIG_STACKTRACE as well as they are pointless because the storage on the call sites is conditional on CONFIG_STACKTRACE already. No point to be 'smart'.

stacktrace: Provide helpers for common stack trace operations

2019-04-29T10:37:46+00:00

All operations with stack traces are based on struct stack_trace. That's a horrible construct as the struct is a kitchen sink for input and output. Quite some usage sites embed it into their own data structures which creates weird indirections. There is absolutely no point in doing so. For all use cases a storage array and the number of valid stack trace entries in the array is sufficient. Provide helper functions which avoid the struct stack_trace indirection so the usage sites can be cleaned up.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

2017-11-02T10:10:55+00:00

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
