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.

In Linux kernel 4.4, firewire-lib got a feature called as 'async midi port'
for transmission of MIDI message via IEEE 1394 asynchronous communication,
however actual consumer of this feature is ALSA driver for TASCAM FireWire
series only. When adding this feature, I assumed that ALSA driver for
Digi00x might also be a consumer, actually it's not.
This commit moves the feature from firewire-lib to firewire-tascam module.
Two minor kernel APIs are removed.

An abstraction of asynchronous transaction for transmission of MIDI
messages was introduced in Linux v4.4. Each driver can utilize this
abstraction to transfer MIDI messages via fixed-length payload of
transaction to a certain unit address. Filling payload of the transaction
is done by callback. In this callback, each driver can return negative
error code, however current implementation assigns the return value to
unsigned variable.
This commit changes type of the variable to fix the bug.

Currently, when asynchronous transactions finish in error state and
retries, work scheduling and work running also continues. This
should be canceled at fatal error because it can cause endless loop.
This commit enables to cancel transferring MIDI messages when transactions
encounter fatal errors. This is achieved by setting error state.

Typically, the target devices have internal buffer to adjust output of
received MIDI messages for MIDI serial bus, while the capacity of the
buffer is limited. IEEE 1394 transactions can transfer more MIDI messages
than MIDI serial bus can. This can cause buffer over flow in device side.
This commit adds throttle to limit MIDI data rate by counting intervals
between two MIDI messages. Usual MIDI messages consists of two or three
bytes. This requires 1.302 to 1.953 mili-seconds interval between these
messages. This commit uses kernel monotonic time service to calculate the
time of next transaction.

Currently, when waiting for a response, callers can start another
transaction by scheduling another work. This is not good for error

Some models receive MIDI messages via IEEE 1394 asynchronous transactions.
In this case, MIDI messages are transferred in fixed-length payload. It's
nice that firewire-lib module has common helper functions.
This commit implements this idea. Each driver adds
'struct snd_fw_async_midi_port' in its instance structure. In probing,
it should call snd_fw_async_midi_port_init() to initialize the
structure with some parameters such as target address, the length
of payload in a transaction and a pointer for callback function
to fill the payload buffer. At 'struct snd_rawmidi_ops.trigger()'
callback, it should call 'snd_fw_async_midi_port_run()' to start
transactions. Each driver should ensure that the lifetime of MIDI
substream continues till calling 'snd_fw_async_midi_port_finish()'.
The helper functions support retries to transferring MIDI messages when
transmission errors occur. When transactions are successful, the helper
functions call 'snd_rawmidi_transmit_ack()' internally to consume MIDI
bytes in the buffer. Therefore, Each driver is expected to use
'snd_rawmidi_transmit_peek()' to tell the number of bytes to transfer to
return value of 'fill' callback.

Add a flag to snd_fw_transaction() to allow it to abort when a bus reset
happens. This removes most of the duplicated error handling loops that
were required around calls to the low-level fw_run_transaction().
Also add a flag to suppress error messages; errors are expected when we
attempt to clean up after the device was unplugged.
