  • b24413180   License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license ... Browse Code »

    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

  • d9ca676bc   atm: correct sysfs 'device' link creation and parent relationships ... Browse Code »

    The ATM subsystem was incorrectly creating the 'device' link for ATM
    nodes in sysfs. This led to incorrect device/parent relationships
    exposed by sysfs and udev. Instead of rolling the 'device' link by hand
    in the generic ATM code, pass each ATM driver's bus device down to the
    sysfs code and let sysfs do this stuff correctly.

  • 8865c418c   atm: 32-bit ioctl compatibility ... Browse Code »

    We lack compat ioctl support through most of the ATM code. This patch
    deals with most of it, and I can now at least use BR2684 and PPPoATM
    with 32-bit userspace.

    I haven't added a .compat_ioctl method to struct atm_ioctl, because
    AFAICT none of the current users need any conversion -- so we can just
    call the ->ioctl() method in every case. I looked at br2684, clip, lec,
    mpc, pppoatm and atmtcp.

    In svc_compat_ioctl() the only mangling which is needed is to change
    COMPAT_ATM_ADDPARTY to ATM_ADDPARTY. Although it's defined as
    _IOW('a', ATMIOC_SPECIAL+4,struct atm_iobuf)
    it doesn't actually _take_ a struct atm_iobuf as an argument -- it takes
    a struct sockaddr_atmsvc, which _is_ the same between 32-bit and 64-bit
    code, so doesn't need conversion.

    Almost all of vcc_ioctl() would have been identical, so I converted that
    into a core do_vcc_ioctl() function with an 'int compat' argument.

    I've done the same with atm_dev_ioctl(), where there _are_ a few
    differences, but still it's relatively contained and there would
    otherwise have been a lot of duplication.

    I haven't done any of the actual device-specific ioctls, although I've
    added a compat_ioctl method to struct atmdev_ops.

    Semaphore to mutex conversion.

    The conversion was generated via scripts, and the result was validated
    automatically via a script as well.

    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!
