  • There is no functionality change in this patch. The common-purpose
    trace functions, including perf_event polling and ksym lookup,
    are moved from trace_output_user.c and bpf_load.c to
    selftests/bpf/trace_helpers.c so that these function can
    be reused later in selftests.

  • 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

  • Switch all of the sample code to use the function names from
    tools/lib/bpf so that they're consistent with that, and to declare their
    own log buffers. This allow the next commit to be purely devoted to
    getting rid of the duplicate library in samples/bpf.

    Committer notes:

    Testing it:

    On a fedora rawhide container, with clang/llvm 3.9, sharing the host
    linux kernel git tree:

    # make O=/tmp/build/linux/ headers_install
    # make O=/tmp/build/linux -C samples/bpf/

    Since I forgot to make it privileged, just tested it outside the
    container, using what it generated:

  • this test calls bpf programs from different contexts:
    from inside of slub, from rcu, from pretty much everywhere,
    since it kprobes all spin_lock functions.
    It stresses the bpf hash and percpu map pre-allocation,
    deallocation logic and call_rcu mechanisms.
    User space part adding more stress by walking and deleting map elements.

    Note that due to nature bpf_load.c the earlier kprobe+bpf programs are
    already active while loader loads new programs, creates new kprobes and
    attaches them.
