* License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman2017-11-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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 <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

* s390/kdump: Add final noteMichael Holzheu2017-03-281-0/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since linux v3.14 with commit 38dfac843cb6d7be1 ("vmcore: prevent PT_NOTE p_memsz overflow during header update") on s390 we get the following message in the kdump kernel: Warning: Exceeded p_memsz, dropping PT_NOTE entry n_namesz=0x6b6b6b6b, n_descsz=0x6b6b6b6b The reason for this is that we don't create a final zero note in the ELF header which the proc/vmcore code uses to find out the end of the notes section (see also kernel/kexec_core.c:final_note()). It still worked on s390 by chance because we (most of the time?) have the byte pattern 0x6b6b6b6b after the notes section which also makes the notes parsing code stop in update_note_header_size_elf64() because 0x6b6b6b6b is interpreded as note size: if ((real_sz + sz) > max_sz) { pr_warn("Warning: Exceeded p_memsz, dropping P ...); break; } So fix this and add the missing final note to the ELF header. We don't have to adjust the memory size for ELF header ("alloc_size") because the new ELF note still fits into the 0x1000 base memory.

* s390: kernel: Audit and remove any unnecessary uses of module.hPaul Gortmaker2017-02-171-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Historically a lot of these existed because we did not have a distinction between what was modular code and what was providing support to modules via EXPORT_SYMBOL and friends. That changed when we forked out support for the latter into the export.h file. This means we should be able to reduce the usage of module.h in code that is obj-y Makefile or bool Kconfig. The advantage in doing so is that module.h itself sources about 15 other headers; adding significantly to what we feed cpp, and it can obscure what headers we are effectively using. Since module.h was the source for init.h (for __init) and for export.h (for EXPORT_SYMBOL) we consider each change instance for the presence of either and replace as needed. Build testing revealed some implicit header usage that was fixed up accordingly.

* s390/kdump: Use "LINUX" ELF note name instead of "CORE"Michael Holzheu2017-02-171-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In binutils/libbfd (bfd/elf.c) it is enforced that all s390 specific ELF notes like e.g. NT_S390_PREFIX or NT_S390_CTRS have "LINUX" specified as note name. Otherwise the notes are ignored. For /proc/vmcore we currently use "CORE" for these notes. Up to now this has not been a real problem because the dump analysis tool "crash" does not check the note name. But it will break all programs that use libbfd for processing ELF notes. So fix this and use "LINUX" for all s390 specific notes to comply with libbfd.

* s390/kdump: fix nosmt kernel parameterMichael Holzheu2015-06-251-25/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It turned out that SIGP set-multi-threading can only be done once. Therefore switching to a different MT level after switching to sclp.mtid_prev in the dump case fails. As a symptom specifying the "nosmt" parameter currently fails for the kdump kernel and the kernel starts with multi-threading enabled. So fix this and issue diag 308 subcode 1 call after collecting the CPU states for the dump. Also enhance the diag308_reset() function to be usable also with enabled lowcore protection and prefix register != 0. After the reset it is possible to switch the MT level again. We have to do the reset very early in order not to kill the already initialized console. Therefore instead of kmalloc() the corresponding memblock functions have to be used. To avoid copying the sclp cpu code into sclp_early, we now use the simple sigp loop method for CPU detection.

* mm/memblock: add extra "flags" to memblock to allow selection of memory ↵Tony Luck2015-06-241-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | based on attribute Some high end Intel Xeon systems report uncorrectable memory errors as a recoverable machine check. Linux has included code for some time to process these and just signal the affected processes (or even recover completely if the error was in a read only page that can be replaced by reading from disk). But we have no recovery path for errors encountered during kernel code execution. Except for some very specific cases were are unlikely to ever be able to recover. Enter memory mirroring. Actually 3rd generation of memory mirroing. Gen1: All memory is mirrored Pro: No s/w enabling - h/w just gets good data from other side of the mirror Con: Halves effective memory capacity available to OS/applications Gen2: Partial memory mirror - just mirror memory begind some memory controllers Pro: Keep more of the capacity Con: Nightmare to enable. Have to choose between allocating from mirrored memory for safety vs. NUMA local memory for performance Gen3: Address range partial memory mirror - some mirror on each memory controller Pro: Can tune the amount of mirror and keep NUMA performance Con: I have to write memory management code to implement The current plan is just to use mirrored memory for kernel allocations. This has been broken into two phases: 1) This patch series - find the mirrored memory, use it for boot time allocations 2) Wade into mm/page_alloc.c and define a ZONE_MIRROR to pick up the unused mirrored memory from mm/memblock.c and only give it out to select kernel allocations (this is still being scoped because page_alloc.c is scary).

* s390/kdump: add support for vector extensionMichael Holzheu2014-10-091-9/+49
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this patch for kdump the s390 vector registers are stored into the prepared save areas in the old kernel and into the REGSET_VX_LOW and REGSET_VX_HIGH ELF notes for /proc/vmcore in the new kernel. The NT_S390_VXRS_LOW note contains the lower halves of the first 16 vector registers 0-15. The higher halves are stored in the floating point register ELF note. The NT_S390_VXRS_HIGH contains the full vector registers 16-31. The kernel provides a save area for storing vector register in case of machine checks. A pointer to this save are is stored in the CPU lowcore at offset 0x11b0. This save area is also used to save the registers for kdump. In case of a dumped crashed kdump those areas are used to extract the registers of the production system. The vector registers for remote CPUs are stored using the "store additional status at address" SIGP. For the dump CPU the vector registers are stored with the VSTM instruction. With this patch also zfcpdump stores the vector registers.

* s390/crashdump: move fill_cpu_elf_notes() prototype to header fileHeiko Carstens2012-09-261-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | Move fill_cpu_elf_notes() prototype to header file. This way we get compile errors if e.g. the number of function parameters get changed. Otherwise it's possible to change just the definition and everything else still compiles fine, but the result is broken code.

* [S390] kernel: Add OS info memory interfaceMichael Holzheu2012-03-111-10/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to allow kdump based stand-alone dump, some information has to be passed from the old kernel to the new dump kernel. This is done via a the struct "os_info" that contains the following fields: * crashkernel base and size * reipl block * vmcoreinfo * init function A pointer to os_info is stored at a well known storage location and the whole structure as well as all fields are secured with checksums.

* [S390] Remove error checking from copy_oldmem_page()Michael Holzheu2011-10-301-5/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | Currently it can happen that the pre-allocated ELF header contains a wrong memory map which would result in errors when copying /proc/vmcore. In order to still get a valid vmcore, we (temporarily) disable the error checking in copy_oldmem_page(). This will then produce zero pages for those memory regions.
