  • 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

  • a28f8f5e9   cgroup: Move debug cgroup to its own file ... Browse Code »

    The debug cgroup currently resides within cgroup-v1.c and is enabled
    only for v1 cgroup. To enable the debug cgroup also for v2, it makes
    sense to put the code into its own file as it will no longer be v1
    specific. There is no change to the debug cgroup specific code.

  • 39d3e7584   rdmacg: Added rdma cgroup controller ... Browse Code »

    Added rdma cgroup controller that does accounting, limit enforcement
    on rdma/IB resources.

    Added rdma cgroup header file which defines its APIs to perform
    charging/uncharging functionality. It also defined APIs for RDMA/IB
    stack for device registration. Devices which are registered will
    participate in controller functions of accounting and limit
    enforcements. It define rdmacg_device structure to bind IB stack
    and RDMA cgroup controller.

    RDMA resources are tracked using resource pool. Resource pool is per
    device, per cgroup entity which allows setting up accounting limits
    on per device basis.

    Currently resources are defined by the RDMA cgroup.

    Resource pool is created/destroyed dynamically whenever
    charging/uncharging occurs respectively and whenever user
    configuration is done. Its a tradeoff of memory vs little more code
    space that creates resource pool object whenever necessary, instead of
    creating them during cgroup creation and device registration time.
