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.

All architectures now need ioremap_uc(), ia64 seems defines this already
through its ioremap_nocache() and it already ensures it *only* uses UC.
This is needed since v4.3 to complete an allyesconfig compile on ia64,
there were others archs that needed this, and this one seems to have
fallen through the cracks.

Unlike x86, arm64 and ARM, ia64 does not declare its implementations
of early_ioremap/early_iounmap/early_memremap/early_memunmap in a header
file called <asm/early_ioremap.h>
This complicates the use of these functions in generic code, since the
header cannot be included directly, and we have to rely on transitive
includes, which is fragile.
So create a <asm/early_ioremap.h> for ia64, and move the existing
definitions into it.

Existing users of ioremap_cache() are mapping memory that is known in
advance to not have i/o side effects. These users are forced to cast
away the __iomem annotation, or otherwise neglect to fix the sparse
errors thrown when dereferencing pointers to this memory. Provide
memremap() as a non __iomem annotated ioremap_*() in the case when
ioremap is otherwise a pointer to cacheable memory. Empirically,
ioremap_<cacheable-type>() call sites are seeking memory-like semantics
(e.g. speculative reads, and prefetching permitted).
memremap() is a break from the ioremap implementation pattern of adding
a new memremap_<type>() for each mapping type and having silent
compatibility fall backs. Instead, the implementation defines flags
that are passed to the central memremap() and if a mapping type is not
supported by an arch memremap returns NULL.
We introduce a memremap prototype as a trivial wrapper of
ioremap_cache() and ioremap_wt(). Later, once all ioremap_cache() and
ioremap_wt() usage has been removed from drivers we teach archs to
implement arch_memremap() with the ability to strictly enforce the
mapping type.

write{b,w,l,q}_relaxed are implemented by some architectures in order to
permit memory-mapped I/O accesses with weaker barrier semantics than the
non-relaxed variants.
This patch adds dummy macros for the write accessors to ia64, which may
be able to be optimised in a similar manner to the relaxed read
accessors at a later date.

This is odd to use early_iounmap() function do tear down mapping
created by early_memremap() function, even if it works right now,
because they belong to different set of functions. The former is
I/O related function and the later is memory related. So, create
early_memunmap() macro which in real is early_iounmap(). This
thing will help to not confuse code readers longer by mixing
functions from different classes.
EFI patches following this patch uses that functionality.

early_ioremap() on IA64 chooses its mapping type based on the EFI
memory map. This patch adds an alias "early_memremap()" to be used

Although the temporary boot-time ACPI table mappings
were set up with CPU caching enabled, the permanent table
mappings and AML run-time region memory accesses were
set up with ioremap(), which on x86 is a synonym for
ioremap_nocache().
Changing this to ioremap_cache() improves performance as
seen when accessing the tables via acpidump,
or /sys/firmware/acpi/tables. It should also improve
AML run-time performance.
No change on ia64.

Some ia64 systems produce several repeats of kernel messages like this:
kernel unaligned access to 0xe000000644220466, ip=0xa000000100516fa1
This was tracked to ide code using the __cmd[] field in "struct request"
via the __outsw() function. __cmd[] is a char array, so is not guaranteed
to be properly aligned when accessed as words.

After moving the the include files there were a few clean-ups:
1) Some files used #include <asm-ia64/xyz.h>, changed to <asm/xyz.h>
2) Some comments alerted maintainers to look at various header files to
make matching updates if certain code were to be changed. Updated these
comments to use the new include paths.
3) Some header files mentioned their own names in initial comments. Just
deleted these self references.
