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.

This was entirely automated, using the script by Al:
PATT='^[[:blank:]]*#[[:blank:]]*include[[:blank:]]*<asm/uaccess.h>'
sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include <linux/uaccess.h>!" \
$(git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h)
to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.

Load/store indexed instructions where the index register RA=R0, such
as "lfdx f1,0,r3", are not illegal.
Load/store indexed with update instructions where the index register
RA=R0, such as "lfdux f1,0,r3", are invalid, and, to be consistent
with existing math-emu behavior for other invalid instruction forms,
will signal as illegal.

In the current kernel, the function flush_fp_to_thread() is not
dependent on CONFIG_PPC_FPU. So most invocations of this function
is not wrapped by CONFIG_PPC_FPU. Even through we don't really
save the FPRs to the thread struct if CONFIG_PPC_FPU is not enabled,
but there does have some runtime overhead such as the check for
tsk->thread.regs and preempt disable and enable. It really make
no sense to do that. So make it a nop when CONFIG_PPC_FPU is
disabled. Also remove the wrapped #ifdef CONFIG_PPC_FPU
when invoking this function.

For some SoC (such as the FSL BookE) even though there does have
a hardware FPU, but not all floating point instructions are
implemented. Unfortunately some versions of gcc do use these
unimplemented instructions. Then we have to enable the math emulation
to workaround this issue. It seems a little redundant to have the
support to emulate all the floating point instructions in this case.
So split the math emulation into two parts. One is for the SoC which
doesn't have FPU at all and the other for the SoC which does have the
hardware FPU and only need some special floating point instructions to
be emulated.

By doing this we can make sure that the FPU state is only flushed to
the thread struct when it is really needed.

The math.c is only built when CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION is enabled.
So the #ifdef check for CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION in it seems redundant.
Drop all of them.

The math.c is only built when CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION is enabled.
So we would never get into the case that CONFIG_MATH_EMULATION
is not defined in this file.

The decoding of some instructions such as fsqrt{s} was incorrect,
using the wrong registers, and thus could not work.
This fixes it and also adds a couple of place holders for missing
instructions.

The math emulation code is centered around a set of generic macros that
provide the core of the emulation that are shared by the various
architectures and other projects (like glibc). Each arch implements its
own sfp-machine.h to specific various arch specific details.
For historic reasons that are now lost the powerpc math-emu code had
its own version of the common headers. This moves us to using the
kernel generic version and thus getting fixes when those are updated.
Also cleaned up exception/error reporting from the FP emulation functions.

We are going to change where the floating point registers are stored
in the thread_struct, so in preparation add some macros to access the
floating point registers. Update all code to use these new macros.

Its legal for the stfiwx instruction to have RA = 0 as part of its
effective address calculation. This is illegal for all other XE
form instructions.
Add code to compute the proper effective address for stfiwx if
RA = 0 rather than treating it as illegal.

Towards the goal of having arch/powerpc not build anything over in arch/ppc
move math-emu over. Also, killed some references to arch/ppc/ in the
arch/powerpc Makefile which should belong in drivers/ when the particular
sub-arch's move over to arch/powerpc.
