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.

Add support for the MIPS Virtualization (VZ) ASE to the MIPS KVM build
system. For now KVM can only be configured for T&E or VZ and not both,
but the design of the user facing APIs support the possibility of having
both available, so this could change in future.
Note that support for various optional guest features (some of which
can't be turned off) are implemented in immediately following commits,
so although it should now be possible to build VZ support, it may not
work yet on your hardware.

Emulate the HYPCALL instruction added in the VZ ASE and used by the MIPS
paravirtualised guest support that is already merged. The new hypcall.c
handles arguments and the return value. No actual hypercalls are yet
supported, but this still allows us to safely step over hypercalls and
set an error code in the return value for forward compatibility.
Non-zero HYPCALL codes are not handled.
We also document the hypercall ABI which asm/kvm_para.h uses.

Convert the whole of locore.S (assembly to enter guest and handle
exception entry) to be generated dynamically with uasm. This is done
with minimal changes to the resulting code.
The main changes are:
- Some constants are generated by uasm using LUI+ADDIU instead of
LUI+ORI.
- Loading of lo and hi are swapped around in vcpu_run but not when
resuming the guest after an exit. Both bits of logic are now generated
by the same code.
- Register MOVEs in uasm use different ADDU operand ordering to GNU as,
putting zero register into rs instead of rt.
- The JALR.HB to call the C exit handler is switched to JALR, since the
hazard barrier would appear to be unnecessary.
This will allow further optimisation in the future to dynamically handle
the capabilities of the CPU.

Various functions in tlb.c perform higher level MMU handling, but don't
strictly need to be statically built into the kernel as they don't
directly manipulate TLB entries. Move these functions out into a
separate mmu.c which will be built into the KVM kernel module. This
allows them to directly reference KVM functions in the KVM kernel module
in future.
Module exports of these functions have been removed, since they aren't
needed outside of KVM.

Add base code for supporting the MIPS SIMD Architecture (MSA) in MIPS
KVM guests. MSA cannot yet be enabled in the guest, we're just laying
the groundwork.
As with the FPU, whether the guest's MSA context is loaded is stored in
another bit in the fpu_inuse vcpu member. This allows MSA to be disabled
when the guest disables it, but keeping the MSA context loaded so it
doesn't have to be reloaded if the guest re-enables it.
New assembly code is added for saving and restoring the MSA context,
restoring only the upper half of the MSA context (for if the FPU context
is already loaded) and for saving/clearing and restoring MSACSR (which
can itself cause an MSA FP exception depending on the value). The MSACSR
is restored before returning to the guest if MSA is already enabled, and
the existing FP exception die notifier is extended to catch the possible
MSA FP exception and step over the ctcmsa instruction.
The helper function kvm_own_msa() is added to enable MSA and restore
the MSA context if it isn't already loaded, which will be used in a
later patch when the guest attempts to use MSA for the first time and
triggers an MSA disabled exception.
The existing FPU helpers are extended to handle MSA. kvm_lose_fpu()
saves the full MSA context if it is loaded (which includes the FPU
context) and both kvm_lose_fpu() and kvm_drop_fpu() disable MSA.
kvm_own_fpu() also needs to lose any MSA context if FR=0, since there
would be a risk of getting reserved instruction exceptions if CU1 is
enabled and we later try and save the MSA context. We shouldn't usually
hit this case since it will be handled when emulating CU1 changes,
however there's nothing to stop the guest modifying the Status register
directly via the comm page, which will cause this case to get hit.

The helper function kvm_lose_fpu() is added to save FPU context and

context switch or KVM exit (the vcpu_get_regs() callback).
The helper function kvm_own_fpu() is added to enable the FPU and restore
the FPU context if it isn't already loaded, which will be used in a
later patch when the guest attempts to use the FPU for the first time
and triggers a co-processor unusable exception.
The helper function kvm_drop_fpu() is added to discard the FPU context
and disable the FPU, which will be used in a later patch when the FPU
state will become architecturally UNPREDICTABLE (change of FR mode) to
force a reload of [stale] context in the new FR mode.
