commit d15155824c5014803d91b829736d249c500bdda6 upstream.
linux/compiler.h is included indirectly by linux/types.h via
uapi/linux/types.h -> uapi/linux/posix_types.h -> linux/stddef.h
-> uapi/linux/stddef.h and is needed to provide a proper definition of
offsetof.Unfortunately, compiler.h requires a definition of
smp_read_barrier_depends() for defining lockless_dereference() and soon
for defining READ_ONCE(), which means that all
users of READ_ONCE() will need to include asm/barrier.h to avoid splats
such as:In file included from include/uapi/linux/stddef.h:1:0,
from include/linux/stddef.h:4,
from arch/h8300/kernel/asm-offsets.c:11:
include/linux/list.h: In function 'list_empty':
>> include/linux/compiler.h:343:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'smp_read_barrier_depends' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
smp_read_barrier_depends(); /* Enforce dependency ordering from x */ \
^A better alternative is to include asm/barrier.h in linux/compiler.h,
but this requires a type definition for "bool" on some architectures
(e.g. x86), which is defined later by linux/types.h. Type "bool" is also
used directly in linux/compiler.h, so the whole thing is pretty fragile.This patch splits compiler.h in two: compiler_types.h contains type
annotations, definitions and the compiler-specific parts, whereas
compiler.h #includes compiler-types.h and additionally defines macros
such as {READ,WRITE.ACCESS}_ONCE().uapi/linux/stddef.h and linux/linkage.h are then moved over to include
linux/compiler_types.h, which fixes the build for h8 and blackfin.Signed-off-by: Will Deacon

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

Pull kbuild changes from Michal Marek:
- fix for handling dependencies of *-objs targets by Masahiro Yamada
- lots of cleanups in the kbuild machinery, also by Masahiro
- fixes for the kconfig build to use an UTF-8 capable ncurses library
if possible and to build on not-so-standard installs
- some more minor fixes* 'kbuild' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mmarek/kbuild:
kbuild: Do not reference *-n variables in the Makefile
kbuild: simplify build, clean, modbuiltin shorthands
kbuild: arm: Do not define "comma" twice
kbuild: remove obj-n and lib-n handling
kbuild: remove unnecessary variable initializaions
kbuild: remove unnecessary "obj- := dummy.o" trick
kbuild: handle C=... and M=... after entering into build directory
kbuild: use $(Q) for sub-make target
kbuild: fake the "Entering directory ..." message more simply
kconfig/lxdialog: get ncurses CFLAGS with pkg-config
kconfig: nconfig: fix multi-byte UTF handling
kconfig: lxdialog: fix spelling
kbuild: Make scripts executable
kbuild: remove redundant clean-files from scripts/kconfig/Makefile
kbuild: refactor script/kconfig/Makefile
kbuild: handle the dependency of multi-objs hostprogs appropriately
kbuild: handle multi-objs dependency appropriately -

If headers_install is executed from a deep/long directory structure, the
shell's maximum argument length can be execeeded, which breaks the operation
with:| make[2]: execvp: /bin/sh: Argument list too long
| make[2]: ***Instead of passing each files name with the entire path, I give only the file
name without the source path and give this path as a new argument to
headers_install.pl.Because there is three possible paths, I have tree input-files list, one per
path.Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel

Remove perl from make headers_install by replacing a perl script (doing a
simple regex search and replace) with a smaller, faster, simpler,
POSIX-2008 shell script implementation. The new shell script is a single
for loop calling sed and piping its output through unifdef to produce the
target file.Same as last time except for minor tweak to deal with code review from
here: http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1302.3/00078.html(Note that this drops the "arch" argument, which isn't used. Kbuild
already points to the right input files on the command line.)Signed-off-by: Rob Landley
