License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

2017-11-02T10:10:55Z

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. Reviewed-by: Kate Stewart Reviewed-by: Philippe Ombredanne Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

staging: bcm2835-audio: Fix memory corruption

2017-10-18T13:09:45Z

The previous commit (0adbfd46) fixed a memory leak but also freed a block in the success case, causing a stale pointer to be used with potentially fatal results. Only free the vchi_instance block in the case that vchi_connect fails; once connected, the instance is retained for subsequent connections. Simplifying the code by removing a bunch of gotos and returning errors directly.

staging: iio: ade7759: fix signed extension bug on shift of a u8

2017-09-30T20:13:34Z

The current shift of st->rx[2] left shifts a u8 24 bits left, promotes the integer to a an int and then to a unsigned u64. If the top bit of st->rx[2] is set then we end up with all the upper bits being set to 1. Fix this by casting st->rx[2] to a u64 before the 24 bit left shift.

Jonathan writes: First round of IIO fixes for the 4.14 cycle Note this includes fixes from recent merge window. As such the tree is based on top of a prior staging/staging-next tree. * iio core - return and error for a failed read_reg debugfs call rather than eating the error. * ad7192 - Use the dedicated reset function in the ad_sigma_delta library instead of an spi transfer with the data on the stack which could cause problems with DMA. * ad7793 - Implement a dedicate reset function in the ad_sigma_delta library and use it to correctly reset this part. * bme280 - ctrl_reg write must occur after any register writes for updates to take effect. * mcp320x - negative voltage readout was broken. - Fix an oops on module unload due to spi_set_drvdata not being called in probe. * st_magn - Fix the data ready line configuration for the lis3mdl. It is not configurable so the st_magn core was assuming it didn't exist and so wasn't consuming interrupts resulting in an unhandled interrupt. * stm32-adc - off by one error on max channels checking. * stm32-timer - preset should not be buffered - reorganising register writes avoids this. - fix a corner case in which write preset goes wrong when a timer is used first as a trigger then as a counter with preset. Odd case but you never know. * ti-ads1015 - Fix setting of comparator polarity by fixing bitfield definition. * twl4030 - Error path handling fix to cleanup in event of regulator registration failure. - Disable the vusb3v1 regulator correctly in error handling - Don't paper over a regulator enable failure.

staging: iio: ad7192: Fix - use the dedicated reset function avoiding dma from stack.

2017-09-24T15:58:37Z

Depends on: 691c4b95d1 ("iio: ad_sigma_delta: Implement a dedicated reset function") SPI host drivers can use DMA to transfer data, so the buffer should be properly allocated. Keeping it on the stack could cause an undefined behavior. The dedicated reset function solves this issue.

staging: rtl8723bs: avoid null pointer dereference on pmlmepriv

2017-09-22T09:00:58Z

There is a check to see if pmlmepriv is null before vfree'ing pmlmepriv->free_bss_buf hence implying pmlmepriv could potenially be null. However, a previous call to rtw_free_mlme_priv_ie_data can also dereference pmlmepriv, so move this call so that it is only called if pmlmepriv non-null.

staging: rtl8723bs: add missing range check on id

2017-09-22T09:00:58Z

The value of the u8 id needs to be upper bounds checked to ensure the cam_cache array on the adapter dvobj is not indexed outside of the allowed range of 0..TOTAL_CAM_ENTRY-1. This can currently occur if id is >= TOTAL_CAM_ENTRY when calling write_cam_from_cache. Fix this by adding an upper range check.
