  • 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

  • In commit d77e38e612a0 ("xfrm: Add an IPsec hardware offloading API") we
    make xfrm_device.o only compiled when enable option CONFIG_XFRM_OFFLOAD.
    But this will make xfrm_dev_event() missing if we only enable default XFRM
    options.

    Then if we set down and unregister an interface with IPsec on it. there
    will no xfrm_garbage_collect(), which will cause dev usage count hold and
    get error like:

    unregister_netdevice: waiting for to become free. Usage count = 4

  • By making this a standalone config option (auto-selected as needed),
    selecting CRYPTO from here rather than from XFRM (which is boolean)
    allows the core crypto code to become a module again even when XFRM=y.

  • Make
    net.core.xfrm_aevent_etime
    net.core.xfrm_acq_expires
    net.core.xfrm_aevent_rseqth
    net.core.xfrm_larval_drop

    sysctls per-netns.

    For that make net_core_path[] global, register it to prevent two
    /proc/net/core antries and change initcall position -- xfrm_init() is called
    from fs_initcall, so this one should be fs_initcall at least.

  • This statistics is shown factor dropped by transformation
    at /proc/net/xfrm_stat for developer.
    It is a counter designed from current transformation source code
    and defined as linux private MIB.

    See Documentation/networking/xfrm_proc.txt for the detail.

  • Most of the code in xfrm4_output_one and xfrm6_output_one are identical so
    this patch moves them into a common xfrm_output function which will live
    in net/xfrm.

    In fact this would seem to fix a bug as on IPv4 we never reset the network
    header after a transform which may upset netfilter later on.

  • 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!
