  • 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

  • None of these files are actually using any __init type directives
    and hence don't need to include . Most are just a
    left over from __devinit and __cpuinit removal, or simply due to
    code getting copied from one driver to the next.

  • Commit ec2212088c42 ("Disintegrate asm/system.h for Alpha") removed
    asm/system.h however arch/alpha/oprofile/common.c requires definitions
    that were shifted from asm/system.h to asm/special_insns.h. Include
    that.

  • Quoting Randy:

    "It seems sad that this patch sources Kconfig.marker, a 7-line file,
    20-something times. Yes, you (we) don't want to put those 7 lines into
    20-something different files, so sourcing is the right thing.

    However, what you did for avr32 seems more on the right track to me: make
    _one_ Instrumentation support menu that includes PROFILING, OPROFILE, KPROBES,
    and MARKERS and then use (source) that in all of the arches."

  • nmi_create_files() in arch/i386/oprofile/nmi_int.c depends on
    model->num_counters (number of performance counters) being less than 10.
    While this is currently the case, it's too clever by half.

    Other archs aren't quite as clever: they assume 100. I suggest to
    normalize them all to 1000.

  • 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!
