The machine check idtentry uses an indirect branch directly from the low
level code. This evades the speculation protection.
Replace it by a direct call into C code and issue the indirect call there
so the compiler can apply the proper speculation protection.

On context switch from a shallow call stack to a deeper one, as the CPU
does 'ret' up the deeper side it may encounter RSB entries (predictions for
where the 'ret' goes to) which were populated in userspace.
This is problematic if neither SMEP nor KPTI (the latter of which marks
userspace pages as NX for the kernel) are active, as malicious code in
userspace may then be executed speculatively.
Overwrite the CPU's return prediction stack with calls which are predicted
to return to an infinite loop, to "capture" speculation if this
happens. This is required both for retpoline, and also in conjunction with
IBRS for !SMEP && !KPTI.
On Skylake+ the problem is slightly different, and an *underflow* of the
RSB may cause errant branch predictions to occur. So there it's not so much
overwrite, as *filling* the RSB to attempt to prevent it getting
empty. This is only a partial solution for Skylake+ since there are many
other conditions which may result in the RSB becoming empty. The full
solution on Skylake+ is to use IBRS, which will prevent the problem even
when the RSB becomes empty. With IBRS, the RSB-stuffing will not be
required on context switch.

Pull x86 pti updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"This contains:
- a PTI bugfix to avoid setting reserved CR3 bits when PCID is
disabled. This seems to cause issues on a virtual machine at least
and is incorrect according to the AMD manual.
- a PTI bugfix which disables the perf BTS facility if PTI is
enabled. The BTS AUX buffer is not globally visible and causes the
CPU to fault when the mapping disappears on switching CR3 to user
space. A full fix which restores BTS on PTI is non trivial and will
be worked on.
- PTI bugfixes for EFI and trusted boot which make sure that the user
space visible page table entries have the NX bit cleared
- removal of dead code in the PTI pagetable setup functions
- add PTI documentation
- add a selftest for vsyscall to verify that the kernel actually
implements what it advertises.
- a sysfs interface to expose vulnerability and mitigation
information so there is a coherent way for users to retrieve the
status.
- the initial spectre_v2 mitigations, aka retpoline:
+ The necessary ASM thunk and compiler support
+ The ASM variants of retpoline and the conversion of affected ASM
code
+ Make LFENCE serializing on AMD so it can be used as speculation
trap
+ The RSB fill after vmexit
- initial objtool support for retpoline
As I said in the status mail this is the most of the set of patches
which should go into 4.15 except two straight forward patches still on
hold:
- the retpoline add on of LFENCE which waits for ACKs
- the RSB fill after context switch
Both should be ready to go early next week and with that we'll have

The switch to the user space page tables in the low level ASM code sets
unconditionally bit 12 and bit 11 of CR3. Bit 12 is switching the base
address of the page directory to the user part, bit 11 is switching the
PCID to the PCID associated with the user page tables.
This fails on a machine which lacks PCID support because bit 11 is set in
CR3. Bit 11 is reserved when PCID is inactive.
While the Intel SDM claims that the reserved bits are ignored when PCID is
disabled, the AMD APM states that they should be cleared.
This went unnoticed as the AMD APM was not checked when the code was
developed and reviewed and test systems with Intel CPUs never failed to
boot. The report is against a Centos 6 host where the guest fails to boot,
so it's not yet clear whether this is a virt issue or can happen on real
hardware too, but thats irrelevant as the AMD APM clearly ask for clearing
the reserved bits.
Make sure that on non PCID machines bit 11 is not set by the page table
switching code.
Andy suggested to rename the related bits and masks so they are clearly
describing what they should be used for, which is done as well for clarity.
That split could have been done with alternatives but the macro hell is
horrible and ugly. This can be done on top if someone cares to remove the
extra orq. For now it's a straight forward fix.

Convert indirect jumps in core 32/64bit entry assembler code to use
non-speculative sequences when CONFIG_RETPOLINE is enabled.
Don't use CALL_NOSPEC in entry_SYSCALL_64_fastpath because the return
address after the 'call' instruction must be *precisely* at the
.Lentry_SYSCALL_64_after_fastpath label for stub_ptregs_64 to work,
and the use of alternatives will mess that up unless we play horrid
games to prepend with NOPs and make the variants the same length. It's
not worth it; in the case where we ALTERNATIVE out the retpoline, the
first instruction at __x86.indirect_thunk.rax is going to be a bare
jmp *%rax anyway.

The preparation for PTI which added CR3 switching to the entry code
misplaced the CR3 switch in entry_SYSCALL_compat().
With PTI enabled the entry code tries to access a per cpu variable after
switching to kernel GS. This fails because that variable is not mapped to
user space. This results in a double fault and in the worst case a kernel
crash.
Move the switch ahead of the access and clobber RSP which has been saved
already.

Most NMI/paranoid exceptions will not in fact change pagetables and would
thus not require TLB flushing, however RESTORE_CR3 uses flushing CR3
writes.
Restores to kernel PCIDs can be NOFLUSH, because we explicitly flush the
kernel mappings and now that we track which user PCIDs need flushing we can
avoid those too when possible.
This does mean RESTORE_CR3 needs an additional scratch_reg, luckily both
sites have plenty available.

We can use PCID to retain the TLBs across CR3 switches; including those now
part of the user/kernel switch. This increases performance of kernel
entry/exit at the cost of more expensive/complicated TLB flushing.
Now that we have two address spaces, one for kernel and one for user space,
we need two PCIDs per mm. We use the top PCID bit to indicate a user PCID
(just like we use the PFN LSB for the PGD). Since we do TLB invalidation
from kernel space, the existing code will only invalidate the kernel PCID,
we augment that by marking the corresponding user PCID invalid, and upon
switching back to userspace, use a flushing CR3 write for the switch.
In order to access the user_pcid_flush_mask we use PER_CPU storage, which
means the previously established SWAPGS vs CR3 ordering is now mandatory
and required.
Having to do this memory access does require additional registers, most
sites have a functioning stack and we can spill one (RAX), sites without
functional stack need to otherwise provide the second scratch register.
Note: PCID is generally available on Intel Sandybridge and later CPUs.
Note: Up until this point TLB flushing was broken in this series.

PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION needs to switch to a different CR3 value when it
enters the kernel and switch back when it exits. This essentially needs to
be done before leaving assembly code.
This is extra challenging because the switching context is tricky: the
registers that can be clobbered can vary. It is also hard to store things
on the stack because there is an established ABI (ptregs) or the stack is
entirely unsafe to use.
Establish a set of macros that allow changing to the user and kernel CR3
values.
Interactions with SWAPGS:
Previous versions of the PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION code relied on having
per-CPU scratch space to save/restore a register that can be used for the
CR3 MOV. The %GS register is used to index into our per-CPU space, so
SWAPGS *had* to be done before the CR3 switch. That scratch space is gone
now, but the semantic that SWAPGS must be done before the CR3 MOV is
retained. This is good to keep because it is not that hard to do and it
allows to do things like add per-CPU debugging information.
What this does in the NMI code is worth pointing out. NMIs can interrupt
*any* context and they can also be nested with NMIs interrupting other
NMIs. The comments below ".Lnmi_from_kernel" explain the format of the
stack during this situation. Changing the format of this stack is hard.
Instead of storing the old CR3 value on the stack, this depends on the
*regular* register save/restore mechanism and then uses %r14 to keep CR3
during the NMI. It is callee-saved and will not be clobbered by the C NMI
handlers that get called.

Pull x86 PTI preparatory patches from Thomas Gleixner:
"Todays Advent calendar window contains twentyfour easy to digest
patches. The original plan was to have twenty three matching the date,
but a late fixup made that moot.
- Move the cpu_entry_area mapping out of the fixmap into a separate
address space. That's necessary because the fixmap becomes too big
with NRCPUS=8192 and this caused already subtle and hard to
diagnose failures.
The top most patch is fresh from today and cures a brain slip of
that tall grumpy german greybeard, who ignored the intricacies of
32bit wraparounds.
- Limit the number of CPUs on 32bit to 64. That's insane big already,
but at least it's small enough to prevent address space issues with
the cpu_entry_area map, which have been observed and debugged with
the fixmap code
- A few TLB flush fixes in various places plus documentation which of
the TLB functions should be used for what.
- Rename the SYSENTER stack to CPU_ENTRY_AREA stack as it is used for
more than sysenter now and keeping the name makes backtraces
confusing.
- Prevent LDT inheritance on exec() by moving it to arch_dup_mmap(),
which is only invoked on fork().
- Make vysycall more robust.
- A few fixes and cleanups of the debug_pagetables code. Check
PAGE_PRESENT instead of checking the PTE for 0 and a cleanup of the
C89 initialization of the address hint array which already was out
of sync with the index enums.
- Move the ESPFIX init to a different place to prepare for PTI.
- Several code moves with no functional change to make PTI
integration simpler and header files less convoluted.
- Documentation fixes and clarifications"

If the kernel oopses while on the trampoline stack, it will print
"<SYSENTER>" even if SYSENTER is not involved. That is rather confusing.
The "SYSENTER" stack is used for a lot more than SYSENTER now. Give it a
better string to display in stack dumps, and rename the kernel code to
match.
Also move the 32-bit code over to the new naming even though it still uses
the entry stack only for SYSENTER.

The kernel is very erratic as to which pagetables have _PAGE_USER set. The
vsyscall page gets lucky: it seems that all of the relevant pagetables are
among the apparently arbitrary ones that set _PAGE_USER. Rather than
relying on chance, just explicitly set _PAGE_USER.
This will let us clean up pagetable setup to stop setting _PAGE_USER. The
added code can also be reused by pagetable isolation to manage the
_PAGE_USER bit in the usermode tables.

The TSS is a fairly juicy target for exploits, and, now that the TSS
is in the cpu_entry_area, it's no longer protected by kASLR. Make it
read-only on x86_64.
On x86_32, it can't be RO because it's written by the CPU during task
switches, and we use a task gate for double faults. I'd also be
nervous about errata if we tried to make it RO even on configurations
without double fault handling.
[ tglx: AMD confirmed that there is no problem on 64-bit with TSS RO. So
it's probably safe to assume that it's a non issue, though Intel
might have been creative in that area. Still waiting for
confirmation. ]

Handling SYSCALL is tricky: the SYSCALL handler is entered with every
single register (except FLAGS), including RSP, live. It somehow needs
to set RSP to point to a valid stack, which means it needs to save the
user RSP somewhere and find its own stack pointer. The canonical way
to do this is with SWAPGS, which lets us access percpu data using the
%gs prefix.
With PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION-like pagetable switching, this is
problematic. Without a scratch register, switching CR3 is impossible, so
%gs-based percpu memory would need to be mapped in the user pagetables.
Doing that without information leaks is difficult or impossible.
Instead, use a different sneaky trick. Map a copy of the first part
of the SYSCALL asm at a different address for each CPU. Now RIP
varies depending on the CPU, so we can use RIP-relative memory access
to access percpu memory. By putting the relevant information (one
scratch slot and the stack address) at a constant offset relative to
RIP, we can make SYSCALL work without relying on %gs.
A nice thing about this approach is that we can easily switch it on
and off if we want pagetable switching to be configurable.
The compat variant of SYSCALL doesn't have this problem in the first
place -- there are plenty of scratch registers, since we don't care
about preserving r8-r15. This patch therefore doesn't touch SYSCALL32
at all.
This patch actually seems to be a small speedup. With this patch,
SYSCALL touches an extra cache line and an extra virtual page, but
the pipeline no longer stalls waiting for SWAPGS. It seems that, at
least in a tight loop, the latter outweights the former.
Thanks to David Laight for an optimization tip.

By itself, this is useless. It gives us the ability to run some final code
before exit that cannnot run on the kernel stack. This could include a CR3
switch a la PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION or some kernel stack erasing, for
example. (Or even weird things like *changing* which kernel stack gets
used as an ASLR-strengthening mechanism.)
The SYSRET32 path is not covered yet. It could be in the future or
we could just ignore it and force the slow path if needed.

Historically, IDT entries from usermode have always gone directly
to the running task's kernel stack. Rearrange it so that we enter on
a per-CPU trampoline stack and then manually switch to the task's stack.
This touches a couple of extra cachelines, but it gives us a chance
to run some code before we touch the kernel stack.
The asm isn't exactly beautiful, but I think that fully refactoring
it can wait.

This will simplify future changes that want scratch variables early in
the SYSENTER handler -- they'll be able to spill registers to the
stack. It also lets us get rid of a SWAPGS_UNSAFE_STACK user.
This does not depend on CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION=y because we'll want the
stack space even without IA32 emulation.
As far as I can tell, the reason that this wasn't done from day 1 is
that we use IST for #DB and #BP, which is IMO rather nasty and causes
a lot more problems than it solves. But, since #DB uses IST, we don't
actually need a real stack for SYSENTER (because SYSENTER with TF set
will invoke #DB on the IST stack rather than the SYSENTER stack).
I want to remove IST usage from these vectors some day, and this patch
is a prerequisite for that as well.

gcc-8 warns that time() is an alias for __vdso_time() but the two
have different prototypes:
arch/x86/entry/vdso/vclock_gettime.c:327:5: error: 'time' alias between functions of incompatible types 'int(time_t *)' {aka 'int(long int *)'} and 'time_t(time_t *)' {aka 'long int(long int *)'} [-Werror=attribute-alias]
int time(time_t *t)
^~~~
arch/x86/entry/vdso/vclock_gettime.c:318:16: note: aliased declaration here
I could not figure out whether this is intentional, but I see that
changing it to return time_t avoids the warning.
Returning 'int' from time() is also a bit questionable, as it causes an
overflow in y2038 even on 64-bit architectures that use a 64-bit time_t
type. On 32-bit architecture with 64-bit time_t, time() should always
be implement by the C library by calling a (to be added) clock_gettime()
variant that takes a sufficiently wide argument.

Live patching consistency model is of LEAVE_PATCHED_SET and
SWITCH_THREAD. This means that all tasks in the system have to be marked
one by one as safe to call a new patched function. Safe means when a
task is not (sleeping) in a set of patched functions. That is, no
patched function is on the task's stack. Another clearly safe place is
the boundary between kernel and userspace. The patching waits for all
tasks to get outside of the patched set or to cross the boundary. The
transition is completed afterwards.
The problem is that a task can block the transition for quite a long
time, if not forever. It could sleep in a set of patched functions, for
example. Luckily we can force the task to leave the set by sending it a
fake signal, that is a signal with no data in signal pending structures
(no handler, no sign of proper signal delivered). Suspend/freezer use
this to freeze the tasks as well. The task gets TIF_SIGPENDING set and
is woken up (if it has been sleeping in the kernel before) or kicked by
rescheduling IPI (if it was running on other CPU). This causes the task
to go to kernel/userspace boundary where the signal would be handled and
the task would be marked as safe in terms of live patching.
There are tasks which are not affected by this technique though. The
fake signal is not sent to kthreads. They should be handled differently.
They can be woken up so they leave the patched set and their
TIF_PATCH_PENDING can be cleared thanks to stack checking.
For the sake of completeness, if the task is in TASK_RUNNING state but
not currently running on some CPU it doesn't get the IPI, but it would
eventually handle the signal anyway. Second, if the task runs in the
kernel (in TASK_RUNNING state) it gets the IPI, but the signal is not
handled on return from the interrupt. It would be handled on return to
the userspace in the future when the fake signal is sent again. Stack
checking deals with these cases in a better way.
If the task was sleeping in a syscall it would be woken by our fake
signal, it would check if TIF_SIGPENDING is set (by calling
signal_pending() predicate) and return ERESTART* or EINTR. Syscalls with
ERESTART* return values are restarted in case of the fake signal (see
do_signal()). EINTR is propagated back to the userspace program. This
could disturb the program, but...
* each process dealing with signals should react accordingly to EINTR
return values.
* syscalls returning EINTR happen to be quite common situation in the
system even if no fake signal is sent.
* freezer sends the fake signal and does not deal with EINTR anyhow.
Thus EINTR values are returned when the system is resumed.
The very safe marking is done in architectures' "entry" on syscall and
interrupt/exception exit paths, and in a stack checking functions of
livepatch. TIF_PATCH_PENDING is cleared and the next
recalc_sigpending() drops TIF_SIGPENDING. In connection with this, also
call klp_update_patch_state() before do_signal(), so that
recalc_sigpending() in dequeue_signal() can clear TIF_PATCH_PENDING
immediately and thus prevent a double call of do_signal().
Note that the fake signal is not sent to stopped/traced tasks. Such task
prevents the patching to finish till it continues again (is not traced
anymore).
Last, sending the fake signal is not automatic. It is done only when
admin requests it by writing 1 to signal sysfs attribute in livepatch
sysfs directory.

Running this code with IRQs enabled (where dummy_lock is a spinlock):
static void check_load_gs_index(void)
{
/* This will fail. */
load_gs_index(0xffff);
spin_lock(&dummy_lock);
spin_unlock(&dummy_lock);
}
Will generate a lockdep warning. The issue is that the actual write
to %gs would cause an exception with IRQs disabled, and the exception
handler would, as an inadvertent side effect, update irqflag tracing
to reflect the IRQs-off status. native_load_gs_index() would then
turn IRQs back on and return with irqflag tracing still thinking that
IRQs were off. The dummy lock-and-unlock causes lockdep to notice the
error and warn.
Fix it by adding the missing tracing.
Apparently nothing did this in a context where it mattered. I haven't
tried to find a code path that would actually exhibit the warning if
appropriately nasty user code were running.
I suspect that the security impact of this bug is very, very low --
production systems don't run with lockdep enabled, and the warning is
mostly harmless anyway.
Found during a quick audit of the entry code to try to track down an
unrelated bug that Ingo found in some still-in-development code.

When I added entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe(), I left TRACE_IRQS_OFF
before it. This means that users of entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe()
were responsible for invoking TRACE_IRQS_OFF, and the one and only
user (Xen, added in the same commit) got it wrong.
I think this would manifest as a warning if a Xen PV guest with
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP=y were used with context tracking. (The
context tracking bit is to cause lockdep to get invoked before we
turn IRQs back on.) I haven't tested that for real yet because I
can't get a kernel configured like that to boot at all on Xen PV.
Move TRACE_IRQS_OFF below the label.

now able to cache the result of shell commands. Some variables are
expensive to compute, for example, $(call cc-option,...) invokes the
compiler. It is not efficient to redo this computation every time,
even when we are not actually building anything. Kbuild creates a
hidden file ".cache.mk" that contains invoked shell commands and their
results. The speed-up should be noticeable.
Summary:
- Fix arch build issues (hexagon, sh)
- Clean up various Makefiles and scripts
- Fix wrong usage of {CFLAGS,LDFLAGS}_MODULE in arch Makefiles
- Cache variables that are expensive to compute
- Improve cc-ldopton and ld-option for Clang
- Optimize output directory creation"

For the out-of-tree build, scripts/Makefile.build creates output
directories, but this operation is not efficient.
scripts/Makefile.lib calculates obj-dirs as follows:
obj-dirs := $(dir $(multi-objs) $(obj-y))
Please notice $(sort ...) is not used here. Usually the result is
as many "./" as objects here.
For a lot of duplicated paths, the following command is invoked.
_dummy := $(foreach d,$(obj-dirs), $(shell [ -d $(d) ] || mkdir -p $(d)))
Then, the costly shell command is run over and over again.
I see many points for optimization:
[1] Use $(sort ...) to cut down duplicated paths before passing them
to system call
[2] Use single $(shell ...) instead of repeating it with $(foreach ...)
This will reduce forking.
[3] We can calculate obj-dirs more simply. Most of objects are already
accumulated in $(targets). So, $(dir $(targets)) is fine and more
comprehensive.
I also removed ugly code in arch/x86/entry/vdso/Makefile. This is now
really unnecessary.

"Note that in this cycle most of the x86 topics interacted at a level
that caused them to be merged into tip:x86/asm - but this should be a
temporary phenomenon, hopefully we'll back to the usual patterns in
the next merge window.
The main changes in this cycle were:
Hardware enablement:
- Add support for the Intel UMIP (User Mode Instruction Prevention)
CPU feature. This is a security feature that disables certain
instructions such as SGDT, SLDT, SIDT, SMSW and STR. (Ricardo Neri)
[ Note that this is disabled by default for now, there are some
smaller enhancements in the pipeline that I'll follow up with in
the next 1-2 days, which allows this to be enabled by default.]
- Add support for the AMD SEV (Secure Encrypted Virtualization) CPU
feature, on top of SME (Secure Memory Encryption) support that was
added in v4.14. (Tom Lendacky, Brijesh Singh)
- Enable new SSE/AVX/AVX512 CPU features: AVX512_VBMI2, GFNI, VAES,
VPCLMULQDQ, AVX512_VNNI, AVX512_BITALG. (Gayatri Kammela)
Other changes:
- A big series of entry code simplifications and enhancements (Andy
Lutomirski)
- Make the ORC unwinder default on x86 and various objtool
enhancements. (Josh Poimboeuf)
- 5-level paging enhancements (Kirill A. Shutemov)
- Micro-optimize the entry code a bit (Borislav Petkov)
- Improve the handling of interdependent CPU features in the early
FPU init code (Andi Kleen)
- Build system enhancements (Changbin Du, Masahiro Yamada)

Right now there is only a pvclock_pvti_cpu0_va() which is defined
on kvmclock since:
commit dac16fba6fc5
("x86/vdso: Get pvclock data from the vvar VMA instead of the fixmap")
The only user of this interface so far is kvm. This commit adds a
setter function for the pvti page and moves pvclock_pvti_cpu0_va
to pvclock, which is a more generic place to have it; and would
allow other PV clocksources to use it, such as Xen.
While moving pvclock_pvti_cpu0_va into pvclock, rename also this
function to pvclock_get_pvti_cpu0_va (including its call sites)
to be symmetric with the setter (pvclock_set_pvti_cpu0_va).

Use lockdep to check that IRQs are enabled or disabled as expected. This
way the sanity check only shows overhead when concurrency correctness
debug code is enabled.
It also makes no more sense to fix the IRQ flags when a bug is detected
as the assertion is now pure config-dependent debugging. And to quote
Peter Zijlstra:
The whole if !disabled, disable logic is uber paranoid programming,

When SEV is active, the encryption attributes from the shared memory pages

Pull initial SPDX identifiers from Greg KH:
"License cleanup: add SPDX license identifiers to some files
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.

Instead of trying to execute any NMI via the bare metal's NMI trap
handler use a Xen specific one for PV domains, like we do for e.g.
debug traps. As in a PV domain the NMI is handled via the normal
kernel stack this is the correct thing to do.
This will enable us to get rid of the very fragile and questionable
dependencies between the bare metal NMI handler and Xen assumptions
believed to be broken anyway.
