2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with a licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman1-0/+1
Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the license under which the file is supposed to be. This makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license. Update these files with an SPDX license identifier. The identifier was chosen based on the license information in the file. GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall exception: NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work". This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL code, without confusing license compliance tools. Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier. The format is: ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE) SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. The update does not remove existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will happen in a separate step. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the methodology of how this patch was researched.

2016-06-18ipv6: RFC 4884 partial support for SIT/GRE tunnelsEric Dumazet1-0/+1
When receiving an ICMPv4 message containing extensions as defined in RFC 4884, and translating it to ICMPv6 at SIT or GRE tunnel, we need some extra manipulation in order to properly forward the extensions. This patch only takes care of Time Exceeded messages as they are the ones that typically carry information from various routers in a fabric during a traceroute session. It also avoids complex skb logic if the data_len is not a multiple of 8. RFC states : The "original datagram" field MUST contain at least 128 octets. If the original datagram did not contain 128 octets, the "original datagram" field MUST be zero padded to 128 octets. In practice routers use 128 bytes of original datagram, not more. Initial translation was added in commit ca15a078bd90 ("sit: generate icmpv6 error when receiving icmpv4 error") Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Oussama Ghorbel <ghorbel@pivasoftware.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
