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

ipv6: Compute multipath hash for ICMP errors from offending packet

2017-08-25T01:21:17+00:00

When forwarding or sending out an ICMPv6 error, look at the embedded packet that triggered the error and compute a flow hash over its headers. This let's us route the ICMP error together with the flow it belongs to when multipath (ECMP) routing is in use, which in turn makes Path MTU Discovery work in ECMP load-balanced or anycast setups (RFC 7690). Granted, end-hosts behind the ECMP router (aka servers) need to reflect the IPv6 Flow Label for PMTUD to work. The code is organized to be in parallel with ipv4 stack: ip_multipath_l3_keys -> ip6_multipath_l3_keys fib_multipath_hash -> rt6_multipath_hash Signed-off-by: Jakub Sitnicki Signed-off-by: David S.

ip6: fix PMTU discovery when using /127 subnets

2017-07-16T23:36:01+00:00

The definition of an "anycast destination address" has been tweaked as a side-effect of commit 2647a9b07032 ("ipv6: Remove external dependency on rt6i_gateway and RTF_ANYCAST"). The first address of a point-to-point /127 subnet is now considered as an anycast address. This prevents ICMPv6 errors to be returned to a sender of such a subnet and breaks PMTU discovery. This can be reproduced with: ip link add name out6 type veth peer name in6 ip link add name out7 type veth peer name in7 ip link set mtu 1400 dev out7 ip link set mtu 1400 dev in7 ip netns add next-hop ip netns add next-next-hop ip link set netns next-hop dev in6 ip link set netns next-hop dev out7 ip link set netns next-next-hop dev in7 ip link set up dev out6 ip addr add 2001:db8:1::12/127 dev out6 ip netns exec next-hop ip link set up dev in6 ip netns exec next-hop ip link set up dev out7 ip netns exec next-hop ip addr add 2001:db8:1::13/127 dev in6 ip netns exec next-hop ip addr add 2001:db8:1::14/127 dev out7 ip netns exec next-hop ip route add default via 2001:db8:1::15 ip netns exec next-hop sysctl -qw net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=1 ip netns exec next-next-hop ip link set up dev in7 ip netns exec next-next-hop ip addr add 2001:db8:1::15/127 dev in7 ip netns exec next-next-hop ip addr add 2001:db8:1::50/128 dev in7 ip netns exec next-next-hop ip route add default via 2001:db8:1::14 ip netns exec next-next-hop sysctl -qw net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=1 ip route add 2001:db8:1::48/123 via 2001:db8:1::13 sleep 4 ping -M do -s 1452 -c 3 2001:db8:1::50 || true ip route get 2001:db8:1::50 Before the patch, we get: 2001:db8:1::50 from :: via 2001:db8:1::13 dev out6 src 2001:db8:1::12 metric 1024 pref medium After the patch, we get: 2001:db8:1::50 via 2001:db8:1::13 dev out6 src 2001:db8:1::12 metric 0 cache expires 578sec mtu 1400 pref medium Fixes: 2647a9b07032 ("ipv6: Remove external dependency on rt6i_gateway and RTF_ANYCAST") Signed-off-by: Vincent Bernat Signed-off-by: David S.

ipv6: initialize route null entry in addrconf_init()

2017-05-04T16:51:24+00:00

Andrey reported a crash on init_net.ipv6.ip6_null_entry->rt6i_idev since it is always NULL. This is clearly wrong, we have code to initialize it to loopback_dev, unfortunately the order is still not correct. loopback_dev is registered very early during boot, we lose a chance to re-initialize it in notifier. addrconf_init() is called after ip6_route_init(), which means we have no chance to correct it. Fix it by moving this initialization explicitly after ipv6_add_dev(init_net.loopback_dev) in addrconf_init().

net: inet: Support UID-based routing in IP protocols.

2016-11-04T18:45:23+00:00

- Use the UID in routing lookups made by protocol connect() and sendmsg() functions. - Make sure that routing lookups triggered by incoming packets (e.g., Path MTU discovery) take the UID of the socket into account. - For packets not associated with a userspace socket, (e.g., ping replies) use UID 0 inside the user namespace corresponding to the network namespace the socket belongs to. This allows all namespaces to apply routing and iptables rules to kernel-originated traffic in that namespaces by matching UID 0. This is better than using the UID of the kernel socket that is sending the traffic, because the UID of kernel sockets created at namespace creation time (e.g., the per-processor ICMP and TCP sockets) is the UID of the user that created the socket, which might not be mapped in the namespace.
