License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
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.

dibs: Define dibs_client_ops and dibs_dev_ops
Move the device add() and remove() functions from ism_client to
dibs_client_ops and call add_dev()/del_dev() for ism devices and
dibs_loopback devices. dibs_client_ops->add_dev() = smcd_register_dev() for
the smc_dibs_client. This is the first step to handle ism and loopback
devices alike (as dibs devices) in the smc dibs client.
Define dibs_dev->ops and move smcd_ops->get_chid to
dibs_dev_ops->get_fabric_id() for ism and loopback devices. See below for
why this needs to be in the same patch as dibs_client_ops->add_dev().
The following changes contain intermediate steps, that will be obsoleted by
follow-on patches, once more functionality has been moved to dibs:
Use different smcd_ops and max_dmbs for ism and loopback. Follow-on patches
will change SMC-D to directly use dibs_ops instead of smcd_ops.
In smcd_register_dev() it is now necessary to identify a dibs_loopback
device before smcd_dev and smcd_ops->get_chid() are available. So provide
dibs_dev_ops->get_fabric_id() in this patch and evaluate it in
smc_ism_is_loopback().
Call smc_loopback_init() in smcd_register_dev() and call
smc_loopback_exit() in smcd_unregister_dev() to handle the functionality
that is still in smc_loopback. Follow-on patches will move all smc_loopback
code to dibs_loopback.
In smcd_[un]register_dev() use only ism device name, this will be replaced
by dibs device name by a follow-on patch.
End of changes with intermediate parts.
Allocate an smcd event workqueue for all dibs devices, although
dibs_loopback does not generate events.
Use kernel memory instead of devres memory for smcd_dev and smcd->conn.
Since commit a72178cfe855 ("net/smc: Fix dependency of SMC on ISM") an ism
device and its driver can have a longer lifetime than the smc module, so
smc should not rely on devres to free its resources [1]. It is now the
responsibility of the smc client to free smcd and smcd->conn for all dibs
devices, ism devices as well as loopback. Call client->ops->del_dev() for
all existing dibs devices in dibs_unregister_client(), so all device
related structures can be freed in the client.
When dibs_unregister_client() is called in the context of smc_exit() or
smc_core_reboot_event(), these functions have already called
smc_lgrs_shutdown() which calls smc_smcd_terminate_all(smcd) and sets
going_away. This is done a second time in smcd_unregister_dev(). This is
analogous to how smcr is handled in these functions, by calling first
smc_lgrs_shutdown() and then smc_ib_unregister_client() >
smc_ib_remove_dev(), so leave it that way. It may be worth investigating,
whether smc_lgrs_shutdown() is still required or useful.
Remove CONFIG_SMC_LO. CONFIG_DIBS_LO now controls whether a dibs loopback
device exists or not.

net/smc: add base infrastructure for SMC-D and ISM
SMC supports two variants: SMC-R and SMC-D. For data transport, SMC-R
uses RDMA devices, SMC-D uses so-called Internal Shared Memory (ISM)
devices. An ISM device only allows shared memory communication between
SMC instances on the same machine. For example, this allows virtual
machines on the same host to communicate via SMC without RDMA devices.
This patch adds the base infrastructure for SMC-D and ISM devices to
the existing SMC code. It contains the following:
* ISM driver interface:
This interface allows an ISM driver to register ISM devices in SMC. In
the process, the driver provides a set of device ops for each device.
SMC uses these ops to execute SMC specific operations on or transfer
data over the device.
* Core SMC-D link group, connection, and buffer support:
Link groups, SMC connections and SMC buffers (in smc_core) are
extended to support SMC-D.
* SMC type checks:
Some type checks are added to prevent using SMC-R specific code for
SMC-D and vice versa.
To actually use SMC-D, additional changes to pnetid, CLC, CDC, etc. are
required. These are added in follow-up patches.
