  • 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

  • v2:
    1) "Over-put" of PipeFS mount point fixed. Fix is ugly, but allows to bisect
    the patch set. And it will be removed later in the series.

    This patch makes RPC clients PipeFs dentries allocations in it's owner network
    namespace context.
    RPC client pipefs dentries creation logic has been changed:
    1) Pipefs dentries creation by sb was moved to separated function, which will
    be used for handling PipeFS mount notification.
    2) Initial value of RPC client PipeFS dir dentry is set no NULL now.

    RPC client pipefs dentries cleanup logic has been changed:
    1) Cleanup is done now in separated rpc_remove_pipedir() function, which takes
    care about pipefs superblock locking.

    Also this patch removes slashes from cb_program.pipe_dir_name and from
    NFS_PIPE_DIRNAME to make rpc_d_lookup_sb() work. This doesn't affect
    vfs_path_lookup() results in nfs4blocklayout_init() since this slash is cutted
    off anyway in link_path_walk().

  • Clean up: Relocate MNT program procedure number definitions to the
    only file that uses them. Relocate the version number definitions,
    which are shared, to nfs.h. Remove duplicate program number
    definitions.

  • 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!
