  • 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

  • Jesse accidentally applied v1 [1] of the patchset instead of v2 [2]. This
    is the diff between v1 and v2.

    The changes in this patch are:
    - tidied vsprintf stack buffer to shrink and compute size more
    accurately
    - use %pR for decoding and %pr for "raw" (with type and flags) instead
    of adding %pRt and %pRf

  • Use scnprintf() to build up a buffer of PNP IDs to print. This
    makes the printk atomic and helps get rid of an #ifdef.

    Also remove an "#ifdef DEBUG" from some debug functions. The
    functions only produce debug output, so it's OK to run the
    function and just have the output be dropped at the end.

  • Each resource should be printed on its own line, so start snprintf'ing
    at the beginning of the buffer every time through the loop.

    Also, use scnprintf() rather than snprintf() when building up the
    buffer to print. scnprintf() returns the number of characters actually
    written into the buffer (not including the trailing NULL).

    snprintf() returns the number of characters that *would be* written,
    assuming everything would fit in the buffer. That's nice if we want to
    resize the buffer to make sure everything fits, but in this case, I
    just want to keep from overflowing the buffer, and it's OK if the
    output is truncated.

    Using snprintf() meant that my "len" could grow to be more than the
    the buffer size, which makes "sizeof(buf) - len" negative, which causes
    this alarming WARN_ON:

  • ISAPNP, PNPBIOS, and ACPI describe the "possible resource settings" of
    a device, i.e., the possibilities an OS bus driver has when it assigns
    I/O port, MMIO, and other resources to the device.

    PNP used to maintain this "possible resource setting" information in
    one independent option structure and a list of dependent option
    structures for each device. Each of these option structures had lists
    of I/O, memory, IRQ, and DMA resources, for example:

    dev
    independent options
    ind-io0 -> ind-io1 ...
    ind-mem0 -> ind-mem1 ...
    ...
    dependent option set 0
    dep0-io0 -> dep0-io1 ...
    dep0-mem0 -> dep0-mem1 ...
    ...
    dependent option set 1
    dep1-io0 -> dep1-io1 ...
    dep1-mem0 -> dep1-mem1 ...
    ...
    ...

    This data structure was designed for ISAPNP, where the OS configures
    device resource settings by writing directly to configuration
    registers. The OS can write the registers in arbitrary order much
    like it writes PCI BARs.

    However, for PNPBIOS and ACPI devices, the OS uses firmware interfaces
    that perform device configuration, and it is important to pass the
    desired settings to those interfaces in the correct order. The OS
    learns the correct order by using firmware interfaces that return the
    "current resource settings" and "possible resource settings," but the
    option structures above doesn't store the ordering information.

    This patch replaces the independent and dependent lists with a single
    list of options. For example, a device might have possible resource
    settings like this:

    dev
    options
    ind-io0 -> dep0-io0 -> dep1->io0 -> ind-io1 ...

    All the possible settings are in the same list, in the order they
    come from the firmware "possible resource settings" list. Each entry
    is tagged with an independent/dependent flag. Dependent entries also
    have a "set number" and an optional priority value. All dependent
    entries must be assigned from the same set. For example, the OS can
    use all the entries from dependent set 0, or all the entries from
    dependent set 1, but it cannot mix entries from set 0 with entries
    from set 1.

    Prior to this patch PNP didn't keep track of the order of this list,
    and it assigned all independent options first, then all dependent
    ones. Using the example above, that resulted in a "desired
    configuration" list like this:

    ind->io0 -> ind->io1 -> depN-io0 ...

    instead of the list the firmware expects, which looks like this:

    ind->io0 -> depN-io0 -> ind-io1 ...

  • If the resource list is empty, say that explicitly. Previously,
    it was confusing because often the heading was followed by zero
    resource lines, then some "add resource" lines from auto-assignment,
    so the "add" lines looked like current resources.

  • PNP used to have a fixed-size pnp_resource_table for tracking the
    resources used by a device. This table often overflowed, so we've
    had to increase the table size, which wastes memory because most
    devices have very few resources.

    This patch replaces the table with a linked list of resources where
    the entries are allocated on demand.

    This removes messages like these:

    pnpacpi: exceeded the max number of IO resources
    00:01: too many I/O port resources

    This patch also changes the way PNP uses the IORESOURCE_UNSET,
    IORESOURCE_AUTO, and IORESOURCE_DISABLED flags.

    Prior to this patch, the pnp_resource_table entries used the flags
    like this:

    IORESOURCE_UNSET
    This table entry is unused and available for use. When this flag
    is set, we shouldn't look at anything else in the resource structure.
    This flag is set when a resource table entry is initialized.

    IORESOURCE_AUTO
    This resource was assigned automatically by pnp_assign_{io,mem,etc}().

    This flag is set when a resource table entry is initialized and
    cleared whenever we discover a resource setting by reading an ISAPNP
    config register, parsing a PNPBIOS resource data stream, parsing an
    ACPI _CRS list, or interpreting a sysfs "set" command.

    Resources marked IORESOURCE_AUTO are reinitialized and marked as
    IORESOURCE_UNSET by pnp_clean_resource_table() in these cases:

    - before we attempt to assign resources automatically,
    - if we fail to assign resources automatically,
    - after disabling a device

    IORESOURCE_DISABLED
    Set by pnp_assign_{io,mem,etc}() when automatic assignment fails.
    Also set by PNPBIOS and PNPACPI for:

    - invalid IRQs or GSI registration failures
    - invalid DMA channels
    - I/O ports above 0x10000
    - mem ranges with negative length

    After this patch, there is no pnp_resource_table, and the resource list
    entries use the flags like this:

    IORESOURCE_UNSET
    This flag is no longer used in PNP. Instead of keeping
    IORESOURCE_UNSET entries in the resource list, we remove
    entries from the list and free them.

    IORESOURCE_AUTO
    No change in meaning: it still means the resource was assigned
    automatically by pnp_assign_{port,mem,etc}(), but these functions
    now set the bit explicitly.

    We still "clean" a device's resource list in the same places,
    but rather than reinitializing IORESOURCE_AUTO entries, we
    just remove them from the list.

    Note that IORESOURCE_AUTO entries are always at the end of the
    list, so removing them doesn't reorder other list entries.
    This is because non-IORESOURCE_AUTO entries are added by the
    ISAPNP, PNPBIOS, or PNPACPI "get resources" methods and by the
    sysfs "set" command. In each of these cases, we completely free
    the resource list first.

    IORESOURCE_DISABLED
    In addition to the cases where we used to set this flag, ISAPNP now
    adds an IORESOURCE_DISABLED resource when it reads a configuration
    register with a "disabled" value.

  • 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!
