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.

Merge "ARM: keystone: add TI SCI protocol support for v4.10" from
Tero Kristo:

[description taken from http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/TISCI

Texas Instruments' Keystone generation System on Chips (SoC) starting
with 66AK2G02, now include a dedicated SoC System Control entity called
PMMC(Power Management Micro Controller) in line with ARM architecture
recommendations. The function of this module is to integrate all system
operations in a centralized location. Communication with the SoC System
Control entity from various processing units like ARM/DSP occurs over
Message Manager hardware block.

...

Texas Instruments' System Control Interface defines the communication
protocol between various processing entities to the System Control Entity
on TI SoCs. This is a set of message formats and sequence of operations
required to communicate and get system services processed from System
Control entity in the SoC.]

ea8b1c4a60 drivers: psci: PSCI checker module
On arm and arm64, PSCI is one of the possible firmware interfaces
used for power management. This includes both turning CPUs on and off,
and suspending them (entering idle states).

This patch adds a PSCI checker module that enables basic testing of
PSCI operations during startup. There are two main tests: CPU
hotplugging and suspending.

In the hotplug tests, the hotplug API is used to turn off and on again
all CPUs in the system, and then all CPUs in each cluster, checking
the consistency of the return codes.

In the suspend tests, a high-priority thread is created on each core
and uses low-level cpuidle functionalities to enter suspend, in all
the possible states and multiple times. This should allow a maximum
number of CPUs to enter the same sleep state at the same or slightly
different time.

In essence, the suspend tests use a principle similar to that of the
intel_powerclamp driver (drivers/thermal/intel_powerclamp.c), but the
threads are only kept for the duration of the test (they are already
gone when userspace is started) and it does not require to stop/start
the tick.

While in theory power management PSCI functions (CPU_{ON,OFF,SUSPEND})
could be directly called, this proved too difficult as it would imply
the duplication of all the logic used by the kernel to allow for a
clean shutdown/bringup/suspend of the CPU (the deepest sleep states
implying potentially the shutdown of the CPU).

Note that this file cannot be compiled as a loadable module, since it
uses a number of non-exported identifiers (essentially for
PSCI-specific checks and direct use of cpuidle) and relies on the
absence of userspace to avoid races when calling hotplug and cpuidle
functions.

For now at least, CONFIG_PSCI_CHECKER is mutually exclusive with
CONFIG_TORTURE_TEST, because torture tests may also use hotplug and
cause false positives in the hotplug tests.

ca791d7f42 firmware: tegra: Add IVC library
The Inter-VM communication (IVC) is a communication protocol which is
designed for interprocessor communication (IPC) or the communication
between the hypervisor and the virtual machine with a guest OS.

Message channels are used to communicate between processors. They are
backed by DRAM or SRAM, so care must be taken to maintain coherence of
data.

The IVC library maintains memory-based descriptors for the transmission
and reception channels as well as the data coherence of the counter and
payload. Clients, such as the driver for the BPMP firmware, can use the
library to exchange messages with remote processors.

Based on work by Peter Newman <pnewman@nvidia.com> and Joseph Lo
<josephl@nvidia.com>.

bff60792f9 arm64: psci: factor invocation code to drivers
To enable sharing with arm, move the core PSCI framework code to
drivers/firmware. This results in a minor gain in lines of code, but
this will quickly be amortised by the removal of code currently
duplicated in arch/arm.

f6e734a8c1 MIPS: BCM47xx: Move NVRAM driver to the drivers/firmware/
After Broadcom switched from MIPS to ARM for their home routers we need
to have NVRAM driver in some common place (not arch/mips/). As explained
in Kconfig, this driver is responsible for parsing SoC configuration
data that is passed to the kernel in flash from the bootloader firmware
called "CFE".

We were thinking about putting it in bus directory, however there are
two possible buses for MIPS: drivers/ssb/ and drivers/bcma/. So this
won't fit there and this is why I would like to move this driver to the
drivers/firmware/.

fce7d3bfc0 x86/efi: Don't select EFI from certain special ACPI drivers
Commit 7ea6c6c1 ("Move cper.c from drivers/acpi/apei to
drivers/firmware/efi") results in CONFIG_EFI being enabled even
when the user doesn't want this. Since ACPI APEI used to build
fine without UEFI (and as far as I know also has no functional
depency on it), at least in that case using a reverse dependency
is wrong (and a straight one isn't needed).

Whether the same is true for ACPI_EXTLOG I don't know - if there
is a functional dependency, it should depend on EFI rather than
selecting it. It certainly has (currently) no build dependency.

Adjust Kconfig and build logic so that the bad dependency gets
avoided.

This allows
 *) userspace to check for the existence of /sys/firmware/efi as a way

 *) 'mount -t efivarfs none /sys/firmware/efi/efivars' without manually

[ Also, move the efivar API into vars.c and unconditionally compile it.
  This allows us to move efivars.c, which now only contains the sysfs
  variable code, into the firmware/efi directory. Note that the efivars.c
  filename is kept to maintain backwards compatability with the old
  efivars.ko module. With this patch it is now possible for efivarfs
  to be built without CONFIG_EFI_VARS - Matt ]

74c5b31c66 driver: Google EFI SMI
The "gsmi" driver bridges userland with firmware specific routines for
accessing hardware.

Currently, this driver only supports NVRAM and eventlog information.
Deprecated functions have been removed from the driver, though their
op-codes are left in place so that they are not re-used.

This driver works by trampolining into the firmware via the smi_command
outlined in the FADT table.  Three protocols are used due to various
limitations over time, but all are included herein.

This driver should only ever load on Google boards, identified by either
a "Google, Inc." board vendor string in DMI, or "GOOGLE" in the OEM
strings of the FADT ACPI table.  This logic happens in
gsmi_system_valid().

948af1f0bb firmware: Basic dmi-sysfs support
Introduce a new module "dmi-sysfs" that exports the broken out entries
of the DMI table through sysfs.

Entries are enumerated via dmi_walk() on module load, and are populated
as kobjects rooted at /sys/firmware/dmi/entries.

Entries are named "<type>-<instance>", where:
   <type>	: is the type of the entry, and
   <instance>	: is the ordinal count within the DMI table of that
		  entry type.  This instance is used in lieu the DMI
		  entry's handle as no assurances are made by the kernel
		  that handles are unique.

All entries export the following attributes:
   length	: The length of the formatted portion of the entry
   handle	: The handle given to this entry by the firmware
   raw		: The raw bytes of the entire entry, including the
		  formatted portion, the unformatted (strings) portion,
		  and the two terminating nul characters.
   type		: The DMI entry type
   instance	: The ordinal instance of this entry given its type.
   position	: The position ordinal of the entry within the table in
		  its entirety.

Entries in dmi-sysfs are kobject backed members called "struct
dmi_sysfs_entry" and belong to dmi_kset.  They are threaded through
entry_list (protected by entry_list_lock) so that we can find them at
cleanup time.

that do not but are bootable through a vendor firmware specific
format/process this patch moves the sysfs interface from the ibft code

ibft iscsi boot info is exported in the same place as it was
before: /sys/firmware/ibft.

vendor/fw boot info gets export in /sys/firmware/iscsi_bootX, where X is the
scsi host number of the HBA. Underneath these parent dirs, the
target, ethernet, and initiator dirs are the same as they were before.

69ac9cd629 sysfs: add /sys/firmware/memmap
This patch adds /sys/firmware/memmap interface that represents the BIOS
(or Firmware) provided memory map. The tree looks like:

    /sys/firmware/memmap/0/start   (hex number)
                           end     (hex number)
                           type    (string)
    ...                 /1/start
                           end
                           type

With the following shell snippet one can print the memory map in the same form
the kernel prints itself when booting on x86 (the E820 map).

  --------- 8< --------------------------
    #!/bin/sh
    cd /sys/firmware/memmap
    for dir in * ; do
        start=$(cat $dir/start)
        end=$(cat $dir/end)
        type=$(cat $dir/type)
        printf "%016x-%016x (%s)\n" $start $[ $end +1] "$type"
    done
  --------- >8 --------------------------

That patch only provides the needed interface:

 1. The sysfs interface.
 2. The structure and enumeration definition.
 3. The function firmware_map_add() and firmware_map_add_early()
    that should be called from architecture code (E820/EFI, for
    example) to add the contents to the interface.

If the kernel is compiled without CONFIG_FIRMWARE_MEMMAP, the interface does
nothing without cluttering the architecture-specific code with #ifdef's.

The purpose of the new interface is kexec: While /proc/iomem represents
the *used* memory map (e.g. modified via kernel parameters like 'memmap'
and 'mem'), the /sys/firmware/memmap tree represents the unmodified memory
map provided via the firmware. So kexec can:

 - use the original memory map for rebooting,
 - use the /proc/iomem for setting up the ELF core headers for kdump
   case that should only represent the memory of the system.

The patch has been tested on i386 and x86_64.

Add /sysfs/firmware/ibft/[initiator|targetX|ethernetX] directories along with
text properties which export the the iSCSI Boot Firmware Table (iBFT)
structure.

What is iSCSI Boot Firmware Table?  It is a mechanism for the iSCSI tools to
extract from the machine NICs the iSCSI connection information so that they
can automagically mount the iSCSI share/target.  Currently the iSCSI
information is hard-coded in the initrd.  The /sysfs entries are read-only
one-name-and-value fields.

The usual set of data exposed is:

4f5c791a85 DMI-based module autoloading
The patch below adds DMI/SMBIOS based module autoloading to the Linux
kernel. The idea is to load laptop drivers automatically (and other
drivers which cannot be autoloaded otherwise), based on the DMI system
identification information of the BIOS.

Right now most distros manually try to load all available laptop
drivers on bootup in the hope that at least one of them loads
successfully. This patch does away with all that, and uses udev to
automatically load matching drivers on the right machines.

Basically the patch just exports the DMI information that has been
parsed by the kernel anyway to userspace via a sysfs device
/sys/class/dmi/id and makes sure that proper modalias attributes are
available. Besides adding the "modalias" attribute it also adds
attributes for a few other DMI fields which might be useful for
writing udev rules.

This patch is not an attempt to export the entire DMI/SMBIOS data to
userspace. We already have "dmidecode" which parses the complete DMI
info from userspace. The purpose of this patch is machine model
identification and good udev integration.

To take advantage of DMI based module autoloading, a driver should
export one or more MODULE_ALIAS fields similar to these:

MODULE_ALIAS("dmi:*:svnMICRO-STARINT'LCO.,LTD:pnMS-1013:pvr0131*:cvnMICRO-STARINT'LCO.,LTD:ct10:*");
MODULE_ALIAS("dmi:*:svnMicro-StarInternational:pnMS-1058:pvr0581:rvnMSI:rnMS-1058:*:ct10:*");
MODULE_ALIAS("dmi:*:svnMicro-StarInternational:pnMS-1412:*:rvnMSI:rnMS-1412:*:cvnMICRO-STARINT'LCO.,LTD:ct10:*");
MODULE_ALIAS("dmi:*:svnNOTEBOOK:pnSAM2000:pvr0131*:cvnMICRO-STARINT'LCO.,LTD:ct10:*");

These lines are specific to my msi-laptop.c driver. They are basically
just a concatenation of a few carefully selected DMI fields with all
potentially bad characters stripped.

Besides laptop drivers, modules like "hdaps", the i2c modules
and the hwmon modules are good candidates for "dmi:" MODULE_ALIAS
lines.

Besides merely exporting the DMI data via sysfs the patch adds
support for a few more DMI fields. Especially the CHASSIS fields are
very useful to identify different laptop modules. The patch also adds
working MODULE_ALIAS lines to my msi-laptop.c driver.

I'd like to thank Kay Sievers for helping me to clean up this patch
for posting it on lkml.

Patch is against Linus' current GIT HEAD. Should probably apply to
older kernels as well without modification.

Currently all three arches compile it from arch/i386, which means that ia64

about.

This is simply "mv arch/i386/kernel/dmi_scan.c drivers/firmware/" (removing
trailing whitespace) and the associated Makefile changes.  All three
architectures already set CONFIG_DMI in their top-level Kconfig files.
