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.

This patch part reverts fd2a0437dc and e858fae2b0 which introduced a
subtle change in how the virtio_net flags are derived from the SKBs
ip_summed field.
With the above commits, the flags are set to VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_DATA_VALID
when ip_summed == CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY, thus treating it differently to
ip_summed == CHECKSUM_NONE, which should be the same.
Further, the virtio spec 1.0 / CS04 explicitly says that
VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_DATA_VALID must not be set by the driver.

As hypervior does not have the knowledge of guest network configuration, it's
better to ask guest to send gratuitous packets when needed.
This patch implements VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_ANNOUNCE feature: hypervisor would
notice the guest when it thinks it's time for guest to announce the link
presnece. Guest tests VIRTIO_NET_S_ANNOUNCE bit during config change interrupt
and woule send gratuitous packets through netif_notify_peers() and ack the
notification through ctrl vq.
We need to make sure the atomicy of read and ack in guest otherwise we may ack
more times than being notified. This is done through handling the whole config
change interrupt in an non-reentrant workqueue.

There's no need for the guest to validate the checksum if it have been
validated by host nics. So this patch introduces a new flag -
VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_DATA_VALID which is used to bypass the checksum
examing in guest. The backend (tap/macvtap) may set this flag when
met skbs with CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY to save cpu utilization.
No feature negotiation is needed as old driver just ignore this flag.
Iperf shows 12%-30% performance improvement for UDP traffic. For TCP,
when gro is on no difference as it produces skb with partial
checksum. But when gro is disabled, 20% or even higher improvement
could be measured by netperf.

Rusty,
commit 3ca4f5ca73
virtio: add virtio IDs file
moved all device IDs into a single file. While the change itself is
a very good one, it can break userspace applications. For example
if a userspace tool wanted to get the ID of virtio_net it used to
include virtio_net.h. This does no longer work, since virtio_net.h
does not include virtio_ids.h.
This patch moves all "#include <linux/virtio_ids.h>" from the C
files into the header files, making the header files compatible with
the old ones.
In addition, this patch exports virtio_ids.h to userspace.

This will be used for RX mode, MAC filter table, VLAN filtering, etc...
The control transaction consists of one or more "out" sg entries and
one or more "in" sg entries. The first out entry contains a header
defining the class and command. Additional out entries may provide
data for the command. The last in entry provides a status response
back from the command.
Virtqueues typically run asynchronous, running a callback function
when there's data in the channel. We can't readily make use of this
in the command paths where we need to use this. Instead, we kick
the virtqueue and spin. The kick causes an I/O write, triggering an
immediate trap into the hypervisor.

If segmentation offload is enabled by the host, we currently allocate
maximum sized packet buffers and pass them to the host. This uses up
20 ring entries, allowing us to supply only 20 packet buffers to the
host with a 256 entry ring. This is a huge overhead when receiving
small packets, and is most keenly felt when receiving MTU sized
packets from off-host.
The VIRTIO_NET_F_MRG_RXBUF feature flag is set by hosts which support
using receive buffers which are smaller than the maximum packet size.
In order to transfer large packets to the guest, the host merges
together multiple receive buffers to form a larger logical buffer.
The number of merged buffers is returned to the guest via a field in
the virtio_net_hdr.
Make use of this support by supplying single page receive buffers to
the host. On receive, we extract the virtio_net_hdr, copy 128 bytes of
the payload to the skb's linear data buffer and adjust the fragment
offset to point to the remaining data. This ensures proper alignment
and allows us to not use any paged data for small packets. If the
payload occupies multiple pages, we simply append those pages as
fragments and free the associated skbs.
This scheme allows us to be efficient in our use of ring entries
while still supporting large packets. Benchmarking using netperf from
an external machine to a guest over a 10Gb/s network shows a 100%
improvement from ~1Gb/s to ~2Gb/s. With a local host->guest benchmark
with GSO disabled on the host side, throughput was seen to increase
from 700Mb/s to 1.7Gb/s.

Linux, but it actually isn't, since we don't do UFO in software.

1) Turn GSO on virtio net into an all-or-nothing (keep checksumming
separate). Having multiple bits is a pain: if you can't support something
you should handle it in software, which is still a performance win.
2) Make VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_ECN a flag in the header, so it can apply to
IPv6 or v4.
3) Rename VIRTIO_NET_F_NO_CSUM to VIRTIO_NET_F_CSUM (ie. means we do
