To integrate with logrotate, we have a signal handler that will re-open
the logfile.
Assuming we have a systemd unit file with
ExecStart=kvm_stat -dtc -s 10 -L /var/log/kvm_stat.csv
ExecReload=/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID
and a logrotate config featuring
postrotate
/bin/systemctl reload kvm_stat.service
endscript
Then the overall flow will look like this:
(1) systemd starts kvm_stat, logging to A.
(2) At some point, logrotate runs, moving A to B.
kvm_stat continues to write to B at this point.
(3) After rotating, logrotate restarts the kvm_stat unit via systemctl.
(4) The kvm_stat unit sends a SIGHUP to kvm_stat, finally making it
switch over to writing to A again.
Note that in order to keep the structure of the cvs output in tact, we
make sure to, in contrast to the standard log format, only write the
header once at the beginning of a file. This implies that the header is
suppressed when appending to an existing file. Unlike with the standard
format, where we append to an existing file by starting out with a
header.

The filter name is fixed to "exit_reason" for some kvm_exit events, no
matter what architect we have. Actually, the filter name ("exit_reason")
is only applicable to x86, meaning it's broken on other architects
including aarch64.
This fixes the issue by providing various kvm_exit filter names, depending
on architect we're on. Afterwards, the variable filter name is picked and
applied through ioctl(fd, SET_FILTER).

The fields filter would not work with child fields, as the respective
parents would not be included. No parents displayed == no childs displayed.
To reproduce, run on s390 (would work on other platforms, too, but would
require a different filter name):
- Run 'kvm_stat -d'
- Press 'f'
- Enter 'instruct'
Notice that events like instruction_diag_44 or instruction_diag_500 are not
displayed - the output remains empty.
With this patch, we will filter by matching events and their parents.
However, consider the following example where we filter by
instruction_diag_44:
kvm statistics - summary
regex filter: instruction_diag_44
Event Total %Total CurAvg/s
exit_instruction 276 100.0 12
instruction_diag_44 256 92.8 11
Total 276 12
Note that the parent ('exit_instruction') displays the total events, but
the childs listed do not match its total (256 instead of 276). This is
intended (since we're filtering all but one child), but might be confusing
on first sight.

merely introduced with commit 9f114a03c6 "tools/kvm_stat: add

the tracepoints provider in this respect. However, there are plenty

gives the percentage of the parent's total.
Since we rework the logic anyway, we modify the total average
calculation to use the raw numbers instead of the (rounded) averages.

Drilldown (i.e. toggle display of child trace events) was implemented by
overriding the fields filter. This resulted in inconsistencies: E.g. when
drilldown was not active, adding a filter that also matches child trace
events would not only filter fields according to the filter, but also add
in the child trace events matching the filter. E.g. on x86, setting
'kvm_userspace_exit' as the fields filter after startup would result in
display of kvm_userspace_exit(DCR), although that wasn't previously
present - not exactly what one would expect from a filter.
This patch addresses the issue by keeping drilldown and fields filter
separate. While at it, we also fix a PEP8 issue by adding a blank line
at one place (since we're in the area...).
We implement this by adding a framework that also allows to define a
taxonomy among the debugfs events to identify child trace events. I.e.
drilldown using 'x' can now also work with debugfs. A respective parent-
child relationship is only known for S390 at the moment, but could be
added adjusting other platforms' ARCH.dbg_is_child() methods
accordingly.

Child trace events were included in calculation of the overall total,
which is used for calculation of the percentages of the '%Total' column.
However, the parent trace envents' stats summarize the child trace
events, hence we'd incorrectly account for them twice, leading to
slightly wrong stats.
With this fix, we use the correct total. Consequently, the sum of the
child trace events' '%Total' column values is identical to the

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.

Make kvm_stat support Python 3 by changing the use of "print" to a
function rather than a statement, switching from "iteritems" and
"iterkeys" (removed in Python 3) to "items" and "keys" respectively,
and decoding bytes to strings when dealing with text.
With this change, kvm_stat is usable with Python 2.6 and greater.
