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

Pull nfsd updates from Bruce Fields:
"Highlights:- Trond made a change to the server's tcp logic that allows a fast
client to better take advantage of high bandwidth networks, but may
increase the risk that a single client could starve other clients;
a new sunrpc.svc_rpc_per_connection_limit parameter should help
mitigate this in the (hopefully unlikely) event this becomes a
problem in practice.- Tom Haynes added a minimal flex-layout pnfs server, which is of no
use in production for now--don't build it unless you're doing
client testing or further server development"* tag 'nfsd-4.8' of git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux: (32 commits)
nfsd: remove some dead code in nfsd_create_locked()
nfsd: drop unnecessary MAY_EXEC check from create
nfsd: clean up bad-type check in nfsd_create_locked
nfsd: remove unnecessary positive-dentry check
nfsd: reorganize nfsd_create
nfsd: check d_can_lookup in fh_verify of directories
nfsd: remove redundant zero-length check from create
nfsd: Make creates return EEXIST instead of EACCES
SUNRPC: Detect immediate closure of accepted sockets
SUNRPC: accept() may return sockets that are still in SYN_RECV
nfsd: allow nfsd to advertise multiple layout types
nfsd: Close race between nfsd4_release_lockowner and nfsd4_lock
nfsd/blocklayout: Make sure calculate signature/designator length aligned
xfs: abstract block export operations from nfsd layouts
SUNRPC: Remove unused callback xpo_adjust_wspace()
SUNRPC: Change TCP socket space reservation
SUNRPC: Add a server side per-connection limit
SUNRPC: Micro optimisation for svc_data_ready
SUNRPC: Call the default socket callbacks instead of open coding
SUNRPC: lock the socket while detaching it

These values are all multiples of 4 already, so there's no change in
behavior from this patch. But perhaps this will prevent mistakes in the
future.Signed-off-by: Kinglong Mee

You could add any multiple of 2^32/PNFS_SCSI_RANGE_SIZE to nr_iomaps and
still pass this check. You'd probably still fail the following kcalloc,
but best to be paranoid since this is from-the-wire data.Signed-off-by: J. Bruce Fields

This is a simple extension to the block layout driver to use SCSI
persistent reservations for access control and fencing, as well as
SCSI VPD pages for device identification.For this we need to pass the nfs4_client to the proc_getdeviceinfo method
to generate the reservation key, and add a new fence_client method
to allow for fence actions in the layout driver.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig

Add a small shim between core nfsd and filesystems to translate the
somewhat cumbersome pNFS data structures and semantics to something
more palatable for Linux filesystems.Thanks to Rick McNeal for the old prototype pNFS blocklayout server
code, which gave a lot of inspiration to this version even if no
code is left from it.Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig
