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.

The old scheme for mapping the vDSO text is rather complicated.
vdso2c generates a struct vm_special_mapping and a blank .pages
array of the correct size for each vdso image. Init code in
vdso/vma.c populates the .pages array for each vDSO image, and
the mapping code selects the appropriate struct
vm_special_mapping.
With .fault, we can use a less roundabout approach: vdso_fault()
just returns the appropriate page for the selected vDSO image.

The goal is to integrate the SYSENTER and SYSCALL32 entry paths
with the INT80 path. SYSENTER clobbers ESP and EIP. SYSCALL32
clobbers ECX (and, invisibly, R11). SYSRETL (long mode to
compat mode) clobbers ECX and, invisibly, R11. SYSEXIT (which
we only need for native 32-bit) clobbers ECX and EDX.
This means that we'll need to provide ESP to the kernel in a
register (I chose ECX, since it's only needed for SYSENTER) and
we need to provide the args that normally live in ECX and EDX in
memory.
The epilogue needs to restore ECX and EDX, since user code
relies on regs being preserved.
We don't need to do anything special about EIP, since the kernel
already knows where we are. The kernel will eventually need to
know where int $0x80 lands, so add a vdso_image entry for it.
The only user-visible effect of this code is that ptrace-induced
changes to ECX and EDX during fast syscalls will be lost. This
is already the case for the SYSENTER path.

Putting the vvar area after the vdso text is rather complicated: it
only works of the total length of the vdso text mapping is known at
vdso link time, and the linker doesn't allow symbol addresses to
depend on the sizes of non-allocatable data after the PT_LOAD
segment.
Moving the vvar area before the vdso text will allow is to safely
map non-allocatable data after the vdso text, which is a nice
simplification.

Using arch_vma_name to give special mappings a name is awkward. x86
currently implements it by comparing the start address of the vma to
the expected address of the vdso. This requires tracking the start
address of special mappings and is probably buggy if a special vma
is split or moved.
Improve _install_special_mapping to just name the vma directly. Use
it to give the x86 vvar area a name, which should make CRIU's life
easier.
As a side effect, the vvar area will show up in core dumps. This
could be considered weird and is fixable.
[hpa: I say we accept this as-is but be prepared to deal with knocking
out the vvars from core dumps if this becomes a problem.]

Currently, vdso.so files are prepared and analyzed by a combination
of objcopy, nm, some linker script tricks, and some simple ELF
parsers in the kernel. Replace all of that with plain C code that
runs at build time.
All five vdso images now generate .c files that are compiled and
linked in to the kernel image.
This should cause only one userspace-visible change: the loaded vDSO
images are stripped more heavily than they used to be. Everything
outside the loadable segment is dropped. In particular, this causes
the section table and section name strings to be missing. This
should be fine: real dynamic loaders don't load or inspect these
tables anyway. The result is roughly equivalent to eu-strip's
--strip-sections option.
The purpose of this change is to enable the vvar and hpet mappings
to be moved to the page following the vDSO load segment. Currently,
it is possible for the section table to extend into the page after
the load segment, so, if we map it, it risks overlapping the vvar or
hpet page. This happens whenever the load segment is just under a
multiple of PAGE_SIZE.
The only real subtlety here is that the old code had a C file with
inline assembler that did 'call VDSO32_vsyscall' and a linker script
that defined 'VDSO32_vsyscall = __kernel_vsyscall'. This most
likely worked by accident: the linker script entry defines a symbol
associated with an address as opposed to an alias for the real
dynamic symbol __kernel_vsyscall. That caused ld to relocate the
reference at link time instead of leaving an interposable dynamic
relocation. Since the VDSO32_vsyscall hack is no longer needed, I
now use 'call __kernel_vsyscall', and I added -Bsymbolic to make it
work. vdso2c will generate an error and abort the build if the
resulting image contains any dynamic relocations, so we won't
silently generate bad vdso images.
(Dynamic relocations are a problem because nothing will even attempt
to relocate the vdso.)

This replaces a decent amount of incomprehensible and buggy code
with much more straightforward code. It also brings the 32-bit vdso
more in line with the 64-bit vdsos, so maybe someday they can share
even more code.
This wastes a small amount of kernel .data and .text space, but it
avoids a couple of allocations on startup, so it should be more or
less a wash memory-wise.

The compat vDSO is a complicated hack that's needed to maintain

This removes it and replaces it with a much simpler hack: a config
option to disable the 32-bit vDSO by default.
This also changes the default value of CONFIG_COMPAT_VDSO to n --
users configuring kernels from scratch almost certainly want that
choice.

Variables that are shared between the vdso and the kernel are
currently a bit of a mess. They are each defined with their own
magic, they are accessed differently in the kernel, the vsyscall page,
and the vdso, and one of them (vsyscall_clock) doesn't even really
exist.
This changes them all to use a common mechanism. All of them are
delcared in vvar.h with a fixed address (validated by the linker
script). In the kernel (as before), they look like ordinary
read-write variables. In the vsyscall page and the vdso, they are
accessed through a new macro VVAR, which gives read-only access.
The vdso is now loaded verbatim into memory without any fixups. As a
side bonus, access from the vdso is faster because a level of
indirection is removed.
While we're at it, pack jiffies and vgetcpu_mode into the same
cacheline.
