b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
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.

b0ad8ea664 perf tools: Remove unused 'prefix' from builtin functions
We got it from the git sources but never used it for anything, with the
place where this would be somehow used remaining:

  static int run_builtin(struct cmd_struct *p, int argc, const char **argv)
  {
	prefix = NULL;
	if (p->option & RUN_SETUP)
		prefix = NULL; /* setup_perf_directory(); */

Ditch it.

aa254af25c perf bench: Run benchmarks, don't test them
So right now we output this text:

        memcpy: Benchmark for memcpy() functions
        memset: Benchmark for memset() functions
           all: Test all memory access benchmarks

But the right verb to use with benchmarks is to 'run' them, not 'test'
them.

So change this (and all similar texts) to:

        memcpy: Benchmark for memcpy() functions
        memset: Benchmark for memset() functions
           all: Run all memory access benchmarks

There are two output format styles, 'default' and 'simple', so improve

d2f3f5d2e9 perf bench futex: Add lock_pi stresser
Allows a way of measuring low level kernel implementation of FUTEX_LOCK_PI and
FUTEX_UNLOCK_PI.

The program comes in two flavors:

(i) single futex (default), all threads contend on the same uaddr.  For the
sake of the benchmark, we call into kernel space even when the lock is
uncontended.  The kernel will set it to TID, any waters that come in and
contend for the pi futex will be handled respectively by the kernel.

(ii) -M option for multiple futexes, each thread deals with its own futex. This
is a trivial scenario and only measures kernel handling of 0->TID transition.

d65817b4e7 perf bench futex: Support parallel waker threads
The futex-wake benchmark only measures wakeups done within a single
process. While this has value in its own, it does not really generate
any hb->lock contention.

A new benchmark 'wake-parallel' is added, by extending the futex-wake
code such that we can measure parallel waker threads. The program output
shows the avg per-thread latency in order to complete its share of
wakeups:

Run summary [PID 13474]: blocking on 512 threads (at [private] futex 0xa88668), 8 threads waking up 64 at a time.

[Run 1]: Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 0.6230 ms (+-15.31%)
[Run 2]: Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 0.5175 ms (+-29.95%)
[Run 3]: Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 0.7578 ms (+-18.03%)
[Run 4]: Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 0.8944 ms (+-12.54%)
[Run 5]: Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 1.1204 ms (+-23.85%)
Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 0.7826 ms (+-9.91%)

Naturally, different combinations of numbers of blocking and waker
threads will exhibit different information.

b6f0629a94 perf bench: Add --repeat option
There are a number of benchmarks that do single runs and as a result
does not really help users gain a general idea of how the workload
performs. So the user must either manually do multiple runs or just use
single bogus results.

This option will enable users to specify the amount of runs (arbitrarily
defaulted to 10, to use the existing benchmarks default) through the
'--repeat' option.  Add it to perf-bench instead of implementing it
always in each specific benchmark.

a043971141 perf bench: Add futex-hash microbenchmark
Introduce futexes to perf-bench and add a program that stresses and
measures the kernel's implementation of the hash table.

This is a multi-threaded program that simply measures the amount of
failed futex wait calls - we only want to deal with the hashing
overhead, so a negative return of futex_wait_setup() is enough to do the
trick.

An example run:

  $ perf bench futex hash -t 32
  Run summary [PID 10989]: 32 threads, each operating on 1024 [private] futexes for 10 secs.

  [thread  0] futexes: 0x19d9b10 ... 0x19dab0c [ 418713 ops/sec ]
  [thread  1] futexes: 0x19daca0 ... 0x19dbc9c [ 469913 ops/sec ]
  [thread  2] futexes: 0x19dbe30 ... 0x19dce2c [ 479744 ops/sec ]
  ...
  [thread 31] futexes: 0x19fbb80 ... 0x19fcb7c [ 464179 ops/sec ]

  Averaged 454310 operations/sec (+- 0.84%), total secs = 10

4157922a90 perf bench: Change the procps visible command-name of invididual benchmark tests plus cleanups
Before this patch, looking at 'perf bench sched pipe' behavior over
'top' only told us that something related to perf is running:

      PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
    19934 mingo     20   0 54836 1296  952 R 18.6  0.0   0:00.56 perf
    19935 mingo     20   0 54836  384   36 S 18.6  0.0   0:00.56 perf

After the patch it's clearly visible what's going on:

      PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+  COMMAND
    19744 mingo     20   0  125m 3536 2644 R 68.2  0.0   0:01.12 sched-pipe
    19745 mingo     20   0  125m 1172  276 R 68.2  0.0   0:01.12 sched-pipe

The benchmark-subsystem name is concatenated with the individual
testcase name.

Unfortunately 'perf top' does not show the reconfigured name, possibly
because it caches ->comm[] values and does not recognize changes to
them?

Also clean up a few bits in builtin-bench.c while at it and reorganize
the code and the output strings to be consistent.

Use iterators to access the various arrays. Rename 'suites' concept to
'benchmark collection' and the 'bench_suite' to 'benchmark/bench'. The
many repetitions of 'suite' made the code harder to read and understand.

The new output is:

  comet:~/tip/tools/perf> ./perf bench
  Usage:
        perf bench [<common options>] <collection> <benchmark> [<options>]

        # List of all available benchmark collections:

         sched: Scheduler and IPC benchmarks
           mem: Memory access benchmarks
          numa: NUMA scheduling and MM benchmarks
           all: All benchmarks

  comet:~/tip/tools/perf> ./perf bench sched

        # List of available benchmarks for collection 'sched':

     messaging: Benchmark for scheduling and IPC
          pipe: Benchmark for pipe() between two processes
           all: Test all scheduler benchmarks

  comet:~/tip/tools/perf> ./perf bench mem

        # List of available benchmarks for collection 'mem':

        memcpy: Benchmark for memcpy()
        memset: Benchmark for memset() tests
           all: Test all memory benchmarks

  comet:~/tip/tools/perf> ./perf bench numa

        # List of available benchmarks for collection 'numa':

           mem: Benchmark for NUMA workloads
           all: Test all NUMA benchmarks

Individual benchmark modules were not touched.

1c13f3c904 perf: Add 'perf bench numa mem' NUMA performance measurement suite
Add a suite of NUMA performance benchmarks.

The goal was simulate the behavior and access patterns of real NUMA
workloads, via a wide range of parameters, so this tool goes well
beyond simple bzero() measurements that most NUMA micro-benchmarks use:

 - It processes the data and creates a chain of data dependencies,
   like a real workload would. Neither the compiler, nor the
   kernel (via KSM and other optimizations) nor the CPU can
   eliminate parts of the workload.

 - It randomizes the initial state and also randomizes the target
   addresses of the processing - it's not a simple forward scan
   of addresses.

 - It provides flexible options to set process, thread and memory
   relationship information: -G sets "global" memory shared between
   all test processes, -P sets "process" memory shared by all
   threads of a process and -T sets "thread" private memory.

 - There's a NUMA convergence monitoring and convergence latency
   measurement option via -c and -m.

 - Micro-sleeps and synchronization can be injected to provoke lock
   contention and scheduling, via the -u and -S options. This simulates
   IO and contention.

 - The -x option instructs the workload to 'perturb' itself artificially
   every N seconds, by moving to the first and last CPU of the system
   periodically. This way the stability of convergence equilibrium and
   the number of steps taken for the scheduler to reach equilibrium again
   can be measured.

 - The amount of work can be specified via the -l loop count, and/or
   via a -s seconds-timeout value.

 - CPU and node memory binding options, to test hard binding scenarios.
   THP can be turned on and off via madvise() calls.

 - Live reporting of convergence progress in an 'at glance' output format.
   Printing of convergence and deconvergence events.

The 'perf bench numa mem -a' option will start an array of about 30
individual tests that will each output such measurements:

 # Running  5x5-bw-thread, "perf bench numa mem -p 5 -t 5 -P 512 -s 20 -zZ0q --thp  1"

9b494ea2f5 perf bench: Flush stdout before starting bench suite
perf bench prints header message for bench suite before starting the
benchmark.  However if the stdout is redirected to a file and bench
suite forks child processes this (and possibly other debugging
messages too) will be repeated multiple times.

  $ perf bench sched messaging
  # Running sched/messaging benchmark...
  # 20 sender and receiver processes per group
  # 10 groups == 400 processes run

       Total time: 0.100 [sec]

  $ perf bench sched messaging > result.txt
  $ wc -l result.txt
  391

In this file, there were so many "Running sched/messaging benchmark..."
lines.  This was because stdout is converted to fully-buffered due to
the redirection and inherited child processes.  Other lines are printed
after reaping all those tasks.

So fix it by flushing stdout before starting bench suites.

1d037ca164 perf tools: Use __maybe_used for unused variables
perf defines both __used and __unused variables to use for marking
unused variables. The variable __used is defined to
__attribute__((__unused__)), which contradicts the kernel definition to
__attribute__((__used__)) for new gcc versions. On Android, __used is
also defined in system headers and this leads to warnings like: warning:
'__used__' attribute ignored

__unused is not defined in the kernel and is not a standard definition.
If __unused is included everywhere instead of __used, this leads to
conflicts with glibc headers, since glibc has a variables with this name
in its headers.

The best approach is to use __maybe_unused, the definition used in the
kernel for __attribute__((unused)). In this way there is only one
definition in perf sources (instead of 2 definitions that point to the
same thing: __used and __unused) and it works on both Linux and Android.
This patch simply replaces all instances of __used and __unused with
__maybe_unused.

2044279d1e perf bench: Add "all" pseudo subsystem and "all" pseudo suite
This patch adds a new "all" pseudo subsystem and an "all" pseudo
suite. These are for testing all subsystem and its all suite, or
all suite of one subsystem.

(This patch also contains a few trivial comment fixes for
bench/* and output style fixes. I judged that there are no
necessity to make them into individual patch.)

Example of use:

| # Running sched/messaging benchmark...
| # 20 sender and receiver processes per group
