  • b24413180   License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license ... Browse Code »

    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

  • ba6fdda46   profiling: Remove unused timer hook ... Browse Code »

    The last remaining user was oprofile and its use has been
    removed a while ago in commit bc078e4eab65f11bba
    ("oprofile: convert oprofile from timer_hook to hrtimer").

    There doesn't seem to be any upstream user of this hook
    for about two years now. And I'm not even aware of any out of
    tree user.

    Let's remove it.

  • 22b8ce947   profiling: dynamically enable readprofile at runtime ... Browse Code »

    Way too often, I have a machine that exhibits some kind of crappy
    behavior. The CPU looks wedged in the kernel or it is spending way too
    much system time and I wonder what is responsible.

    I try to run readprofile. But, of course, Ubuntu doesn't enable it by
    default. Dang!

    The reason we boot-time enable it is that it takes a big bufffer that we
    generally can only bootmem alloc. But, does it hurt to at least try and
    runtime-alloc it?

    To use:
    echo 2 > /sys/kernel/profile

    Then run readprofile like normal.

    This should fix the compile issue with allmodconfig. I've compile-tested
    on a bunch more configs now including a few more architectures.

  • b03f6489f   build kernel/profile.o only when requested ... Browse Code »

    Build kernel/profile.o only if CONFIG_PROFILING is enabled.

    This makes CONFIG_PROFILING=n kernels smaller.

    As a bonus, some profile_tick() calls and one branch from schedule() are
    now eliminated with CONFIG_PROFILING=n (but I doubt these are
    measurable effects).

    This patch changes the effects of CONFIG_PROFILING=n, but I don't think
    having more than two choices would be the better choice.

    This patch also adds the name of the first parameter to the prototypes
    of profile_{hits,tick}() since I anyway had to add them for the dummy
    functions.

  • ece8a684c   [PATCH] sleep profiling ... Browse Code »

    Implement prof=sleep profiling. TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE sleeps will be taken
    as a profile hit, and every millisecond spent sleeping causes a profile-hit
    for the call site that initiated the sleep.

    Sample readprofile output on i386:

    306 ps2_sendbyte 1.3973
    432 call_usermodehelper_keys 1.9548
    484 ps2_command 0.6453

    4076 do_lookup 12.4648
    8587 sync_page 122.6714
    20820 total 0.0067

    (NOTE: architectures need to check whether get_wchan() can be called from
    deep within the wakeup path.)

    akpm: we need to mark more functions __sched. lock_sock(), msleep(), others..

    akpm: the contention in do_lookup() is a surprise. Presumably doing disk
    reads for directory contents while holding i_mutex.

  • 7d12e780e   IRQ: Maintain regs pointer globally rather than passing to IRQ handlers ... Browse Code »

    Maintain a per-CPU global "struct pt_regs *" variable which can be used instead
    of passing regs around manually through all ~1800 interrupt handlers in the
    Linux kernel.

    The regs pointer is used in few places, but it potentially costs both stack
    space and code to pass it around. On the FRV arch, removing the regs parameter
    from all the genirq function results in a 20% speed up of the IRQ exit path
    (ie: from leaving timer_interrupt() to leaving do_IRQ()).

    Where appropriate, an arch may override the generic storage facility and do
    something different with the variable. On FRV, for instance, the address is
    maintained in GR28 at all times inside the kernel as part of general exception
    handling.

    Having looked over the code, it appears that the parameter may be handed down
    through up to twenty or so layers of functions. Consider a USB character
    device attached to a USB hub, attached to a USB controller that posts its
    interrupts through a cascaded auxiliary interrupt controller. A character
    device driver may want to pass regs to the sysrq handler through the input
    layer which adds another few layers of parameter passing.

    I've build this code with allyesconfig for x86_64 and i386. I've runtested the
    main part of the code on FRV and i386, though I can't test most of the drivers.
    I've also done partial conversion for powerpc and MIPS - these at least compile
    with minimal configurations.

    This will affect all archs. Mostly the changes should be relatively easy.
    Take do_IRQ(), store the regs pointer at the beginning, saving the old one:

    struct pt_regs *old_regs = set_irq_regs(regs);

    And put the old one back at the end:

    set_irq_regs(old_regs);

    Don't pass regs through to generic_handle_irq() or __do_IRQ().

    In timer_interrupt(), this sort of change will be necessary:

    - update_process_times(user_mode(regs));
    - profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING, regs);
    + update_process_times(user_mode(get_irq_regs()));
    + profile_tick(CPU_PROFILING);

    I'd like to move update_process_times()'s use of get_irq_regs() into itself,
    except that i386, alone of the archs, uses something other than user_mode().

    Some notes on the interrupt handling in the drivers:

    (*) input_dev() is now gone entirely. The regs pointer is no longer stored in
    the input_dev struct.

    (*) finish_unlinks() in drivers/usb/host/ohci-q.c needs checking. It does
    something different depending on whether it's been supplied with a regs
    pointer or not.

    (*) Various IRQ handler function pointers have been moved to type
    irq_handler_t.

  • 1da177e4c   Linux-2.6.12-rc2 ... Browse Code »

    Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
    even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
    archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
    3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
    git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
    infrastructure for it.

    Let it rip!
