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

MIPS: Use per-mm page to execute branch delay slot instructions In some cases the kernel needs to execute an instruction from the delay slot of an emulated branch instruction. These cases include: - Emulated floating point branch instructions (bc1[ft]l?) for systems which don't include an FPU, or upon which the kernel is run with the "nofpu" parameter. - MIPSr6 systems running binaries targeting older revisions of the architecture, which may include branch instructions whose encodings are no longer valid in MIPSr6. Executing instructions from such delay slots is done by writing the instruction to memory followed by a trap, as part of an "emuframe", and executing it. This avoids the requirement of an emulator for the entire MIPS instruction set. Prior to this patch such emuframes are written to the user stack and executed from there. This patch moves FP branch delay emuframes off of the user stack and into a per-mm page. Allocating a page per-mm leaves userland with access to only what it had access to previously, and compared to other solutions is relatively simple. When a thread requires a delay slot emulation, it is allocated a frame. A thread may only have one frame allocated at any one time, since it may only ever be executing one instruction at any one time. In order to ensure that we can free up allocated frame later, its index is recorded in struct thread_struct. In the typical case, after executing the delay slot instruction we'll execute a break instruction with the BRK_MEMU code. This traps back to the kernel & leads to a call to do_dsemulret which frees the allocated frame & moves the user PC back to the instruction that would have executed following the emulated branch. In some cases the delay slot instruction may be invalid, such as a branch, or may trigger an exception. In these cases the BRK_MEMU break instruction will not be hit. In order to ensure that frames are freed this patch introduces dsemul_thread_cleanup() and calls it to free any allocated frame upon thread exit. If the instruction generated an exception & leads to a signal being delivered to the thread, or indeed if a signal simply happens to be delivered to the thread whilst it is executing from the struct emuframe, then we need to take care to exit the frame appropriately. This is done by either rolling back the user PC to the branch or advancing it to the continuation PC prior to signal delivery, using dsemul_thread_rollback(). If this were not done then a sigreturn would return to the struct emuframe, and if that frame had meanwhile been used in response to an emulated branch instruction within the signal handler then we would execute the wrong user code. Whilst a user could theoretically place something like a compact branch to self in a delay slot and cause their thread to become stuck in an infinite loop with the frame never being deallocated, this would: - Only affect the users single process. - Be architecturally invalid since there would be a branch in the delay slot, which is forbidden. - Be extremely unlikely to happen by mistake, and provide a program with no more ability to harm the system than a simple infinite loop would. If a thread requires a delay slot emulation & no frame is available to it (ie. the process has enough other threads that all frames are currently in use) then the thread joins a waitqueue. It will sleep until a frame is freed by another thread in the process. Since we now know whether a thread has an allocated frame due to our tracking of its index, the cookie field of struct emuframe is removed as we can be more certain whether we have a valid frame. Since a thread may only ever have a single frame at any given time, the epc field of struct emuframe is also removed & the PC to continue from is instead stored in struct thread_struct. Together these changes simplify & shrink struct emuframe somewhat, allowing twice as many frames to fit into the page allocated for them. The primary benefit of this patch is that we are now free to mark the user stack non-executable where that is possible.

* This structure defines the frames placed within the delay slot emulation
* page in response to a call to mips_dsemul(). Each thread may be allocated
* only one frame at any given time. The kernel stores within it the
* instruction to be 'emulated' followed by a break instruction, then
* executes the frame in user mode. The break causes a trap to the kernel
* which leads to do_dsemulret() being called unless the instruction in
* @emul causes a trap itself, is a branch, or a signal is delivered to
* the thread. In these cases the allocated frame will either be reused by
* a subsequent delay slot 'emulation', or be freed during signal delivery or
* upon thread exit.
*
* This approach is used because:
*
* - Actually emulating all instructions isn't feasible. We would need to
* be able to handle instructions from all revisions of the MIPS ISA,
* all ASEs & all vendor instruction set extensions. This would be a
* whole lot of work & continual maintenance burden as new instructions
* are introduced, and in the case of some vendor extensions may not
* even be possible. Thus we need to take the approach of actually
* executing the instruction.
*
* - We must execute the instruction within user context. If we were to
* execute the instruction in kernel mode then it would have access to
* kernel resources without very careful checks, leaving us with a
* high potential for security or stability issues to arise.
*
* - We used to place the frame on the users stack, but this requires
* that the stack be executable. This is bad for security so the
* per-process page is now used instead.
*
* - The instruction in @emul may be something entirely invalid for a
* delay slot. The user may (intentionally or otherwise) place a branch
* in a delay slot, or a kernel mode instruction, or something else
* which generates an exception. Thus we can't rely upon the break in
* @badinst always being hit. For this reason we track the index of the
* frame allocated to each thread, allowing us to clean it up at later
* points such as signal delivery or thread exit.
*
* - The user may generate a fake struct emuframe if they wish, invoking
* the BRK_MEMU break instruction themselves. We must therefore not
* trust that BRK_MEMU means there's actually a valid frame allocated
* to the thread, and must not allow the user to do anything they
* couldn't already.

MIPS: math-emu: Correctly handle NOP emulation Fix an issue introduced with commit 9ab4471c9f1b ("MIPS: math-emu: Correct delay-slot exception propagation") where the emulation of a NOP instruction signals the need to terminate the emulation loop. This in turn, if the PC has not changed from the entry to the loop, will cause the kernel to terminate the program with SIGILL. Consider this program: static double div(double d) { do d /= 2.0; while (d > .5); return d; } int main(int argc, char **argv) { return div(argc); } which gets compiled to the following binary code: 00400490 <main>: 400490: 44840000 mtc1 a0,$f0 400494: 3c020040 lui v0,0x40 400498: d44207f8 ldc1 $f2,2040(v0) 40049c: 46800021 cvt.d.w $f0,$f0 4004a0: 46220002 mul.d $f0,$f0,$f2 4004a4: 4620103c c.lt.d $f2,$f0 4004a8: 4501fffd bc1t 4004a0 <main+0x10> 4004ac: 00000000 nop 4004b0: 4620000d trunc.w.d $f0,$f0 4004b4: 03e00008 jr ra 4004b8: 44020000 mfc1 v0,$f0 4004bc: 00000000 nop Where the FPU emulator is used, depending on the number of command-line arguments this code will either run to completion or terminate with SIGILL. If no arguments are specified, then BC1T will not be taken, NOP will not be emulated and code will complete successfully. If one argument is specified, then BC1T will be taken once and NOP will be emulated. At this point the entry PC value will be 0x400498 and the new PC value, set by `mips_dsemul' will be 0x4004a0, the target of BC1T. The emulation loop will terminate, but SIGILL will not be issued, because the PC has changed. The FPU emulator will be entered again and on the second execution BC1T will not be taken, NOP will not be emulated and code will complete successfully. If two or more arguments are specified, then the first execution of BC1T will proceed as above. Upon reentering the FPU emulator the emulation loop will continue to BC1T, at which point the branch will be taken and NOP emulated again. At this point however the entry PC value will be 0x4004a0, the same as the target of BC1T. This will make the emulator conclude that execution has not advanced and therefore an unsupported FPU instruction has been encountered, and SIGILL will be sent to the process. Fix the problem by extending the internal API of `mips_dsemul', making it return -1 if no delay slot emulation frame has been made, the instruction has been handled and execution of the emulation loop needs to continue as if nothing happened. Remove code from `mips_dsemul' to reproduce steps made by the emulation loop at the conclusion of each iteration, as those will be reached normally now. Adjust call sites accordingly.

MIPS: Use per-mm page to execute branch delay slot instructions In some cases the kernel needs to execute an instruction from the delay slot of an emulated branch instruction. These cases include: - Emulated floating point branch instructions (bc1[ft]l?) for systems which don't include an FPU, or upon which the kernel is run with the "nofpu" parameter. - MIPSr6 systems running binaries targeting older revisions of the architecture, which may include branch instructions whose encodings are no longer valid in MIPSr6. Executing instructions from such delay slots is done by writing the instruction to memory followed by a trap, as part of an "emuframe", and executing it. This avoids the requirement of an emulator for the entire MIPS instruction set. Prior to this patch such emuframes are written to the user stack and executed from there. This patch moves FP branch delay emuframes off of the user stack and into a per-mm page. Allocating a page per-mm leaves userland with access to only what it had access to previously, and compared to other solutions is relatively simple. When a thread requires a delay slot emulation, it is allocated a frame. A thread may only have one frame allocated at any one time, since it may only ever be executing one instruction at any one time. In order to ensure that we can free up allocated frame later, its index is recorded in struct thread_struct. In the typical case, after executing the delay slot instruction we'll execute a break instruction with the BRK_MEMU code. This traps back to the kernel & leads to a call to do_dsemulret which frees the allocated frame & moves the user PC back to the instruction that would have executed following the emulated branch. In some cases the delay slot instruction may be invalid, such as a branch, or may trigger an exception. In these cases the BRK_MEMU break instruction will not be hit. In order to ensure that frames are freed this patch introduces dsemul_thread_cleanup() and calls it to free any allocated frame upon thread exit. If the instruction generated an exception & leads to a signal being delivered to the thread, or indeed if a signal simply happens to be delivered to the thread whilst it is executing from the struct emuframe, then we need to take care to exit the frame appropriately. This is done by either rolling back the user PC to the branch or advancing it to the continuation PC prior to signal delivery, using dsemul_thread_rollback(). If this were not done then a sigreturn would return to the struct emuframe, and if that frame had meanwhile been used in response to an emulated branch instruction within the signal handler then we would execute the wrong user code. Whilst a user could theoretically place something like a compact branch to self in a delay slot and cause their thread to become stuck in an infinite loop with the frame never being deallocated, this would: - Only affect the users single process. - Be architecturally invalid since there would be a branch in the delay slot, which is forbidden. - Be extremely unlikely to happen by mistake, and provide a program with no more ability to harm the system than a simple infinite loop would. If a thread requires a delay slot emulation & no frame is available to it (ie. the process has enough other threads that all frames are currently in use) then the thread joins a waitqueue. It will sleep until a frame is freed by another thread in the process. Since we now know whether a thread has an allocated frame due to our tracking of its index, the cookie field of struct emuframe is removed as we can be more certain whether we have a valid frame. Since a thread may only ever have a single frame at any given time, the epc field of struct emuframe is also removed & the PC to continue from is instead stored in struct thread_struct. Together these changes simplify & shrink struct emuframe somewhat, allowing twice as many frames to fit into the page allocated for them. The primary benefit of this patch is that we are now free to mark the user stack non-executable where that is possible.

MIPS: Use per-mm page to execute branch delay slot instructions In some cases the kernel needs to execute an instruction from the delay slot of an emulated branch instruction. These cases include: - Emulated floating point branch instructions (bc1[ft]l?) for systems which don't include an FPU, or upon which the kernel is run with the "nofpu" parameter. - MIPSr6 systems running binaries targeting older revisions of the architecture, which may include branch instructions whose encodings are no longer valid in MIPSr6. Executing instructions from such delay slots is done by writing the instruction to memory followed by a trap, as part of an "emuframe", and executing it. This avoids the requirement of an emulator for the entire MIPS instruction set. Prior to this patch such emuframes are written to the user stack and executed from there. This patch moves FP branch delay emuframes off of the user stack and into a per-mm page. Allocating a page per-mm leaves userland with access to only what it had access to previously, and compared to other solutions is relatively simple. When a thread requires a delay slot emulation, it is allocated a frame. A thread may only have one frame allocated at any one time, since it may only ever be executing one instruction at any one time. In order to ensure that we can free up allocated frame later, its index is recorded in struct thread_struct. In the typical case, after executing the delay slot instruction we'll execute a break instruction with the BRK_MEMU code. This traps back to the kernel & leads to a call to do_dsemulret which frees the allocated frame & moves the user PC back to the instruction that would have executed following the emulated branch. In some cases the delay slot instruction may be invalid, such as a branch, or may trigger an exception. In these cases the BRK_MEMU break instruction will not be hit. In order to ensure that frames are freed this patch introduces dsemul_thread_cleanup() and calls it to free any allocated frame upon thread exit. If the instruction generated an exception & leads to a signal being delivered to the thread, or indeed if a signal simply happens to be delivered to the thread whilst it is executing from the struct emuframe, then we need to take care to exit the frame appropriately. This is done by either rolling back the user PC to the branch or advancing it to the continuation PC prior to signal delivery, using dsemul_thread_rollback(). If this were not done then a sigreturn would return to the struct emuframe, and if that frame had meanwhile been used in response to an emulated branch instruction within the signal handler then we would execute the wrong user code. Whilst a user could theoretically place something like a compact branch to self in a delay slot and cause their thread to become stuck in an infinite loop with the frame never being deallocated, this would: - Only affect the users single process. - Be architecturally invalid since there would be a branch in the delay slot, which is forbidden. - Be extremely unlikely to happen by mistake, and provide a program with no more ability to harm the system than a simple infinite loop would. If a thread requires a delay slot emulation & no frame is available to it (ie. the process has enough other threads that all frames are currently in use) then the thread joins a waitqueue. It will sleep until a frame is freed by another thread in the process. Since we now know whether a thread has an allocated frame due to our tracking of its index, the cookie field of struct emuframe is removed as we can be more certain whether we have a valid frame. Since a thread may only ever have a single frame at any given time, the epc field of struct emuframe is also removed & the PC to continue from is instead stored in struct thread_struct. Together these changes simplify & shrink struct emuframe somewhat, allowing twice as many frames to fit into the page allocated for them. The primary benefit of this patch is that we are now free to mark the user stack non-executable where that is possible.
