dma-direct: rename dma_noop to dma_direct

2018-01-15T08:35:06+00:00

The trivial direct mapping implementation already does a virtual to physical translation which isn't strictly a noop, and will soon learn to do non-direct but linear physical to dma translations through the device offset and a few small tricks. Rename it to a better fitting name. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Reviewed-by: Vladimir Murzin

error-injection: Separate error-injection from kprobe

2018-01-13T01:33:38+00:00

Since error-injection framework is not limited to be used by kprobes, nor bpf. Other kernel subsystems can use it freely for checking safeness of error-injection, e.g. livepatch, ftrace etc. So this separate error-injection framework from kprobes. Some differences has been made: - "kprobe" word is removed from any APIs/structures. - BPF_ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION() is renamed to ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION() since it is not limited for BPF too. - CONFIG_FUNCTION_ERROR_INJECTION is the config item of this feature. It is automatically enabled if the arch supports error injection feature for kprobe or ftrace etc. Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu Reviewed-by: Josef Bacik Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov

spinlock: Add library function to allocate spinlock buckets array

2017-12-11T14:58:39+00:00

Add two new library functions: alloc_bucket_spinlocks and free_bucket_spinlocks. These are used to allocate and free an array of spinlocks that are useful as locks for hash buckets. The interface specifies the maximum number of spinlocks in the array as well as a CPU multiplier to derive the number of spinlocks to allocate. The number allocated is rounded up to a power of two to make the array amenable to hash lookup. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Merge tag 'riscv-for-linus-4.15-arch-v9-premerge' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/palmer/linux

2017-11-15T18:49:15+00:00

Pull RISC-V architecture support from Palmer Dabbelt: "This contains the core RISC-V Linux port, which has been through nine rounds of review on various mailing lists. The port is not complete: there's some cleanup patches moving through the review process, a whole bunch of drivers that need some work, and a lot of feature additions that will be needed. The patches contained in this tag have been through nine rounds of review on the various mailing lists. I have some outstanding cleanup patches, but since there's been so much review on these patches I thought it would be best to submit them as-is and then submit explicit cleanup patches so everyone can review them. This first patch set is big enough that it's a bit of a pain to constantly rewrite, and it's caused a few headaches with various contributors. The port is definately a work in progress. While what's there builds and boots with 4.14, it's a bit hard to actually see anything happen because there are no device drivers yet. I maintain a staging branch that contains all the device drivers and cleanup that actually works, but those patches won't all be ready for a while. I'd like to get what we currently have into your tree so everyone can start working from a single base -- of particular importance is allowing the glibc upstreaming process to proceed so we can sort out any possibly lingering user-visible ABI problems we might have. Copied below is the ChangeLog that contains the history of this patch set: (v9) As per suggestions on our v8 patch set, I've split the core architecture code out from our drivers and would like to submit this patch set to be included into linux-next, with the goal being to be merged in during the next merge window. This patch set is based on 4.14-rc2, but if it's better to have it based on something else then I can change it around. This patch set contains just the core arch code for RISC-V, so while it builds an nominally boots, you can't print or take an interrupt so it's not that useful. If you're looking to actually boot a system it would probably be better to use the full patch set listed below. We've collected a handful of tags from reviewers, and the remainder of the patch set only got minimal feedback last time. Here's what changed: - We now use the device tree to initialize the timer driver so it's less tighly coupled with the arch port. - I cleaned up the defconfigs -- there's actually now just one, and it's empty. For now I think we're OK with what the kernel sets as defaults, but I anticipate we'll begin to expand this as people start to use the port more. - The VDSO symbols version is sane. - We WFI while spinning in the boot loop. - A handful of comments have been added. While there are still a handful of FIXMEs in this patch set, we've started to get enough interest from various users and contributors that maintaining an out of tree patch set is starting to become a big burden. Hopefully the patches are good enough to merge now, which will at least get everyone working in a more reasonable manner as we clean up the remaining issues. (v8) I know it may not be the ideal time to submit a patch set right now, as it's the middle of the merge window, but things have calmed down quite a bit in the last month so I thought it would be good to get everyone on the same page. There's been a handful of changes since the last patch set, but most of them are fairly minor: - We changed PAGE_OFFSET to allowing mapping more physical memory on 64-bit systems. This is user configurable, as it triggers a different code model that generates slightly less efficient code. - The device tree binding documentation is back, I'd managed to lose it at some point. - We now pass the atomic64 test suite - The SBI timer driver has been refactored. (v7) It's been a while since my last patch set, but the changes han been fairly minimal: - The PCI cleanup patches have been dropped, we'll do them as a separate patch set later. - We've the Kconfig entries from CONFIG_ISA_* to CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_*, to make grep easier. - There have been a handful of memory model related tweaks in I/O land, particularly relating the PCI and the upcoming platform specification. There are significant comments in the relevant files. This is still a WIP, but I think we're close to getting as good as we're going to get until we end up with some more specifications. (v6) As it's been only a day since the v5 patch set, the changes are pretty minimal: - The patch set is now based on linux-next/master, which I believe is a better base now that we're getting closer to upstream. - EARLY_PRINTK is no longer an option. Since the SBI console is reasonable, there's no penalty to enabling it (and thus no benefit to disabling it). - The mmap syscalls were refactored a bit. (v5) Things have really started to calm down, so this is fairly similar to the v4 patch set. The most interesting changes include: - We've moved back to a single patch set. - SMP support has been fixed, I was accidentally running on a non-SMP configuration. There were various mistakes all over the tree as a result of this. - The cmpxchg syscalls have been removed, as they were deemed a bad idea. As a result, RISC-V Linux systems mandate the A extension. The corresponding Kconfig entry to enable builds on non-A systems has been removed. - A few more atomic fixes: mostly fence changes, but those resulted in a handful of additional macros that were no longer necessary. - riscv_early_sie has been removed. (v4) There have only been a few changes since the v3 patch set: - The cmpxchg64 syscall is no longer enabled on 32-bit systems. It's not possible to provide this on SMP systems, and it's not necessary as glibc knows not to call it. - We provide a ELF_HWCAP so users can determine the ISA of the machine the kernel is running on. - The multi-line comments are in a better form. - There were a handful of headers that could be replaced with the asm-generic versions, and a few unnecessary definitions. - We no longer use printk, but instead use pr_*. - A few Kconfig and defconfig entries have been cleaned up. (v3) A highlight of the changes since the v2 patch set includes: - We've split out all our drivers into separate patch sets, which I've already sent out to the relevant maintainers. I haven't included those patches in this patch set, but some of them are necessary to build our port. - The patch set is now split up differently: rather than being split per directory it is split per topic. Hopefully this will make it easier to review the port on the mailing list. The split is a bit rough, so you probably still want to look at the patch set as a whole. - atomic.h has been completely rewritten and is hopefully now correct. I've attempted to sanitize the various other memory model related code as well, and I think it should all be sane now aside from a handful of FIXMEs commented in the code. - We've changed the cmpexchg syscall to always exist and to not be multiplexed. There is also a VDSO entry for compare and exchange, which allows kernels with the A extension to execute user code without the A extension reasonably fast. - Our user-visible register state now contains enough space for the Q extension for 128-bit floating point, as well as a few words to allow extensibility to future ISA extensions like the eventual V extension for vectors. - A handful of driver cleanups, but these have been split into separate patch sets now so I won't duplicate them here. (v2) A highlight of the changes since the v1 patch set includes: - We've split out our drivers into the right places, which means now there's a lot more patches. I'll be submitting these patches to various subsystem maintainers and including them in any future RISC-V patch sets until they've been merged. - The SBI console driver has been completely rewritten to use the HVC helpers and is now significantly smaller. - We've begun to use weaker barriers as opposed to just the big "fence". There's still some work to do here, specifically: - We need fences in the relaxed MMIO functions. - The non-relaxed MMIO functions are missing R/W bits on their fences. - Many AMOs need the aq and rl bits set. - We now have thread_info in task_struct. As a result, sscratch now contains TP instead of SP. This was necessary because thread_info is no longer on the stack. - A few shared routines have been added that we use instead of creating another arch copy" Reviewed-by: Arnd Bergmann * tag 'riscv-for-linus-4.15-arch-v9-premerge' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/palmer/linux: RISC-V: Build Infrastructure RISC-V: User-facing API RISC-V: Paging and MMU RISC-V: Device, timer, IRQs, and the SBI RISC-V: Task implementation RISC-V: ELF and module implementation RISC-V: Generic library routines and assembly RISC-V: Atomic and Locking Code RISC-V: Init and Halt Code dt-bindings: RISC-V CPU Bindings lib: Add shared copies of some GCC library routines MAINTAINERS: Add RISC-V

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
