2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman1-0/+1
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.

2016-04-14Make file credentials available to the seqfile interfacesLinus Torvalds1-9/+4
A lot of seqfile users seem to be using things like %pK that uses the credentials of the current process, but that is actually completely wrong for filesystem interfaces. The unix semantics for permission checking files is to check permissions at _open_ time, not at read or write time, and that is not just a small detail: passing off stdin/stdout/stderr to a suid application and making the actual IO happen in privileged context is a classic exploit technique. So if we want to be able to look at permissions at read time, we need to use the file open credentials, not the current ones. Normal file accesses can just use "f_cred" (or any of the helper functions that do that, like file_ns_capable()), but the seqfile interfaces do not have any such options. It turns out that seq_file _does_ save away the user_ns information of the file, though. Since user_ns is just part of the full credential information, replace that special case with saving off the cred pointer instead, and suddenly seq_file has all the permission information it needs.

2015-09-04fs: create and use seq_show_option for escapingKees Cook1-0/+35
Many file systems that implement the show_options hook fail to correctly escape their output which could lead to unescaped characters (e.g. new lines) leaking into /proc/mounts and /proc/[pid]/mountinfo files. This could lead to confusion, spoofed entries (resulting in things like systemd issuing false d-bus "mount" notifications), and who knows what else. This looks like it would only be the root user stepping on themselves, but it's possible weird things could happen in containers or in other situations with delegated mount privileges. Here's an example using overlay with setuid fusermount trusting the contents of /proc/mounts (via the /etc/mtab symlink). Imagine the use of "sudo" is something more sneaky: $ BASE="ovl" $ MNT="$BASE/mnt" $ LOW="$BASE/lower" $ UP="$BASE/upper" $ WORK="$BASE/work/ 0 0 none /proc fuse.pwn user_id=1000" $ mkdir -p "$LOW" "$UP" "$WORK" $ sudo mount -t overlay -o "lowerdir=$LOW,upperdir=$UP,workdir=$WORK" none /mnt $ cat /proc/mounts none /root/ovl/mnt overlay rw,relatime,lowerdir=ovl/lower,upperdir=ovl/upper,workdir=ovl/work/ 0 0 none /proc fuse.pwn user_id=1000 0 0 $ fusermount -u /proc $ cat /proc/mounts cat: /proc/mounts: No such file or directory This fixes the problem by adding new seq_show_option and seq_show_option_n helpers, and updating the vulnerable show_option handlers to use them as needed. Some, like SELinux, need to be open coded due to unusual existing escape mechanisms.

2013-04-09new helper: single_open_size()Al Viro1-0/+1
Same as single_open(), but preallocates the buffer of given size. Doesn't make any sense for sizes up to PAGE_SIZE and doesn't make sense if output of show() exceeds PAGE_SIZE only rarely - seq_read() will take care of growing the buffer and redoing show(). If you _know_ that it will be large, it might make more sense to look into saner iterator, rather than go with single-shot one. If that's impossible, single_open_size() might be for you. Again, don't use that without a good reason; occasionally that's really the best way to go, but very often there are better solutions. Signed-off-by: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>

Pull <linux/bug.h> cleanup from Paul Gortmaker: "The changes shown here are to unify linux's BUG support under the one <linux/bug.h> file. Due to historical reasons, we have some BUG code in bug.h and some in kernel.h -- i.e. the support for BUILD_BUG in linux/kernel.h predates the addition of linux/bug.h, but old code in kernel.h wasn't moved to bug.h at that time. As a band-aid, kernel.h was including <asm/bug.h> to pseudo link them. This has caused confusion[1] and general yuck/WTF[2] reactions. Here is an example that violates the principle of least surprise: CC lib/string.o lib/string.c: In function 'strlcat': lib/string.c:225:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'BUILD_BUG_ON' make[2]: *** [lib/string.o] Error 1 $ $ grep linux/bug.h lib/string.c #include <linux/bug.h> $ We've included <linux/bug.h> for the BUG infrastructure and yet we still get a compile fail! [We've not kernel.h for BUILD_BUG_ON.] Ugh - very confusing for someone who is new to kernel development. With the above in mind, the goals of this changeset are: 1) find and fix any include/*.h files that were relying on the implicit presence of BUG code. 2) find and fix any C files that were consuming kernel.h and hence relying on implicitly getting some/all BUG code. 3) Move the BUG related code living in kernel.h to <linux/bug.h> 4) remove the asm/bug.h from kernel.h to finally break the chain. During development, the order was more like 3-4, build-test, 1-2. But to ensure that git history for bisect doesn't get needless build failures introduced, the commits have been reorderd to fix the problem areas in advance.

2012-03-04BUG: headers with BUG/BUG_ON etc. need linux/bug.hPaul Gortmaker1-0/+1
If a header file is making use of BUG, BUG_ON, BUILD_BUG_ON, or any other BUG variant in a static inline (i.e. not in a #define) then that header really should be including <linux/bug.h> and not just expecting it to be implicitly present. We can make this change risk-free, since if the files using these headers didn't have exposure to linux/bug.h already, they would have been causing compile failures/warnings.

2009-02-18seq_file: properly cope with preadEric Biederman1-0/+1
Currently seq_read assumes that the offset passed to it is always the offset it passed to user space. In the case pread this assumption is broken and we do the wrong thing when presented with pread. To solve this I introduce an offset cache inside of struct seq_file so we know where our logical file position is. Then in seq_read if we try to read from another offset we reset our data structures and attempt to go to the offset user space wanted.

2008-12-30cpumask: Use nr_cpu_ids in seq_cpumaskRusty Russell1-1/+1
Impact: cleanup, futureproof nr_cpu_ids is the (badly named) runtime limit on possible CPU numbers; ie. the variable version of NR_CPUS. With the new cpumask operators, only bits less than this are defined. So we should use it everywhere, rather than NR_CPUS. Eventually this will make it possible to allocate cpumasks of the minimal length at runtime.

2008-08-12seq_file: add seq_cpumask(), seq_nodemask()Alexey Dobriyan1-0/+12
Short enough reads from /proc/irq/*/smp_affinity return -EINVAL for no good reason. This became noticed with NR_CPUS=4096 patches, when length of printed representation of cpumask becase 1152, but cat(1) continued to read with 1024-byte chunks. bitmap_scnprintf() in good faith fills buffer, returns 1023, check returns -EINVAL. Fix it by switching to seq_file, so handler will just fill buffer and doesn't care about offsets, length, filling EOF and all this crap. For that add seq_bitmap(), and wrappers around it -- seq_cpumask() and seq_nodemask().

2007-10-17Fix f_version type: should be u64 instead of unsigned longMathieu Desnoyers1-1/+1
Fix f_version type: should be u64 instead of long There is a type inconsistency between struct inode i_version and struct file f_version. fs.h: struct inode u64 i_version; and struct file unsigned long f_version; Users do: fs/ext3/dir.c: if (filp->f_version != inode->i_version) { So why isn't f_version a u64 ? It becomes a problem if versions gets higher than 2^32 and we are on an architecture where longs are 32 bits. This patch changes the f_version type to u64, and updates the users accordingly.

2007-07-10Make common helpers for seq_files that work with list_headsPavel Emelianov1-0/+11
Many places in kernel use seq_file API to iterate over a regular list_head. The code for such iteration is identical in all the places, so it's worth introducing a common helpers. This makes code about 300 lines smaller: The first version of this patch made the helper functions static inline in the seq_file.h header. This patch moves them to the fs/seq_file.c as Andrew proposed. The vmlinux .text section sizes are as follows: 2.6.22-rc1-mm1: 0x001794d5 with the previous version: 0x00179505 with this patch: 0x00179135 The config file used was make allnoconfig with the "y" inclusion of all the possible options to make the files modified by the patch compile plus drivers I have on the test node.
