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.

Block/SCSI layout write completion may add committable extents to the
extent tree before updating the layout's last-written byte under the inode
lock. If a sync happens before this value is updated, then
prepare_layoutcommit may find and encode these extents which would produce
a LAYOUTCOMMIT request whose encoded extents are larger than the request's
loca_length.
Fix this by using a last-written byte value that is updated atomically with
the extent tree so that commitable extents always match.

This actually includes the new layout types, so here's that part of
the pull message repeated:
"Support for a new pnfs layout type from Christoph Hellwig. The new

* tag 'nfsd-4.6-1' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux:
nfsd: use short read as well as i_size to set eof
nfsd: better layoutupdate bounds-checking
nfsd: block and scsi layout drivers need to depend on CONFIG_BLOCK
nfsd: add SCSI layout support
nfsd: move some blocklayout code
nfsd: add a new config option for the block layout driver
nfs/blocklayout: add SCSI layout support
nfs4.h: add SCSI layout definitions
This is a trivial extension to the block layout driver to support the
new SCSI layouts draft. There are three changes:
- device identifcation through the SCSI VPD page. This allows us to
directly use the udev generated persistent device names instead of
requiring an expensive lookup by crawling every block device node
in /dev and reading a signature for it.
- use of SCSI persistent reservations to protect device access and
allow for robust fencing. On the client sides this just means
registering and unregistering a server supplied key.
- an optimized LAYOUTCOMMIT payload that doesn't send unessecary
fields to the server.

Instead of overflowing the XDR send buffer with our extent list allocate
pages and pre-encode the layoutupdate payload into them. We optimistically
allocate a single page use alloc_page and only switch to vmalloc when we
have more extents outstanding. Currently there is only a single testcase
(xfstests generic/113) which can reproduce large enough extent lists for
this to occur.

Currently the block layout driver tracks extents in three separate
data structures:
- the two list of pnfs_block_extent structures returned by the server
- the list of sectors that were in invalid state but have been written to
- a list of pnfs_block_short_extent structures for LAYOUTCOMMIT
All of these share the property that they are not only highly inefficient
data structures, but also that operations on them are even more inefficient
than nessecary.
In addition there are various implementation defects like:
- using an int to track sectors, causing corruption for large offsets
- incorrect normalization of page or block granularity ranges
- insufficient error handling
- incorrect synchronization as extents can be modified while they are in
use
This patch replace all three data with a single unified rbtree structure
tracking all extents, as well as their in-memory state, although we still
need to instance for read-only and read-write extent due to the arcane
client side COW feature in the block layouts spec.
To fix the problem of extent possibly being modified while in use we make
sure to return a copy of the extent for use in the write path - the
extent can only be invalidated by a layout recall or return which has
to wait until the I/O operations finished due to refcounts on the layout
segment.
The new extent tree work similar to the schemes used by block based
filesystems like XFS or ext4.
