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.

[PATCH] BLOCK: Make it possible to disable the block layer [try #6] Make it possible to disable the block layer. Not all embedded devices require it, some can make do with just JFFS2, NFS, ramfs, etc - none of which require the block layer to be present. This patch does the following: (*) Introduces CONFIG_BLOCK to disable the block layer, buffering and blockdev support. (*) Adds dependencies on CONFIG_BLOCK to any configuration item that controls an item that uses the block layer. This includes: (*) Block I/O tracing. (*) Disk partition code. (*) All filesystems that are block based, eg: Ext3, ReiserFS, ISOFS. (*) The SCSI layer. As far as I can tell, even SCSI chardevs use the block layer to do scheduling. Some drivers that use SCSI facilities - such as USB storage - end up disabled indirectly from this. (*) Various block-based device drivers, such as IDE and the old CDROM drivers. (*) MTD blockdev handling and FTL. (*) JFFS - which uses set_bdev_super(), something it could avoid doing by taking a leaf out of JFFS2's book. (*) Makes most of the contents of linux/blkdev.h, linux/buffer_head.h and linux/elevator.h contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK being set. sector_div() is, however, still used in places, and so is still available. (*) Also made contingent are the contents of linux/mpage.h, linux/genhd.h and parts of linux/fs.h. (*) Makes a number of files in fs/ contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) Makes mm/bounce.c (bounce buffering) contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) set_page_dirty() doesn't call __set_page_dirty_buffers() if CONFIG_BLOCK is not enabled. (*) fs/no-block.c is created to hold out-of-line stubs and things that are required when CONFIG_BLOCK is not set: (*) Default blockdev file operations (to give error ENODEV on opening). (*) Makes some /proc changes: (*) /proc/devices does not list any blockdevs. (*) /proc/diskstats and /proc/partitions are contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) Makes some compat ioctl handling contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) If CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined, makes sys_quotactl() return -ENODEV if given command other than Q_SYNC or if a special device is specified. (*) In init/do_mounts.c, no reference is made to the blockdev routines if CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined. This does not prohibit NFS roots or JFFS2. (*) The bdflush, ioprio_set and ioprio_get syscalls can now be absent (return error ENOSYS by way of cond_syscall if so). (*) The seclvl_bd_claim() and seclvl_bd_release() security calls do nothing if CONFIG_BLOCK is not set, since they can't then happen.

block, cfq: move icq creation and rq->elv.icq association to block core Now block layer knows everything necessary to create and associate icq's with requests. Move ioc_create_icq() to blk-ioc.c and update get_request() such that, if elevator_type->icq_size is set, requests are automatically associated with their matching icq's before elv_set_request(). io_context reference is also managed by block core on request alloc/free. * Only ioprio/cgroup changed handling remains from cfq_get_cic(). Collapsed into cfq_set_request(). * This removes queue kicking on icq allocation failure (for now). As icq allocation failure is rare and the only effect of queue kicking achieved was possibily accelerating queue processing, this change shouldn't be noticeable. There is a larger underlying problem. Unlike request allocation, icq allocation is not guaranteed to succeed eventually after retries. The number of icq is unbound and thus mempool can't be the solution either. This effectively adds allocation dependency on memory free path and thus possibility of deadlock. This usually wouldn't happen because icq allocation is not a hot path and, even when the condition triggers, it's highly unlikely that none of the writeback workers already has icq. However, this is still possible especially if elevator is being switched under high memory pressure, so we better get it fixed. Probably the only solution is just bypassing elevator and appending to dispatch queue on any elevator allocation failure. * Comment added to explain how icq's are managed and synchronized. This completes cleanup of io_context interface. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>

block: Introduce elevator features Introduce the definition of elevator features through the elevator_features flags in the elevator_type structure. Each flag can represent a feature supported by an elevator. The first feature defined by this patch is support for zoned block device sequential write constraint with the flag ELEVATOR_F_ZBD_SEQ_WRITE, which is implemented by the mq-deadline elevator using zone write locking. Other possible features are IO priorities, write hints, latency targets or single-LUN dual-actuator disks (for which the elevator could maintain one LBA ordered list per actuator). The required_elevator_features field is also added to the request_queue structure to allow a device driver to specify elevator feature flags that an elevator must support for the correct operation of the device (e.g. device drivers for zoned block devices can have the ELEVATOR_F_ZBD_SEQ_WRITE flag as a required feature). The helper function blk_queue_required_elevator_features() is defined for setting this new field. With these two new fields in place, the elevator functions elevator_match() and elevator_find() are modified to allow a user to set only an elevator with a set of features that satisfies the device required features. Elevators not matching the device requirements are not shown in the device sysfs queue/scheduler file to prevent their use. The "none" elevator can always be selected as before.

elevator: fix oops on early call to elevator_change() 2.6.36 introduces an API for drivers to switch the IO scheduler instead of manually calling the elevator exit and init functions. This API was added since q->elevator must be cleared in between those two calls. And since we already have this functionality directly from use by the sysfs interface to switch schedulers online, it was prudent to reuse it internally too. But this API needs the queue to be in a fully initialized state before it is called, or it will attempt to unregister elevator kobjects before they have been added. This results in an oops like this: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000051 IP: [<ffffffff8116f15e>] sysfs_create_dir+0x2e/0xc0 PGD 47ddfc067 PUD 47c6a1067 PMD 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP last sysfs file: /sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:02.0/0000:04:00.1/irq CPU 2 Modules linked in: t(+) loop hid_apple usbhid ahci ehci_hcd uhci_hcd libahci usbcore nls_base igb Pid: 7319, comm: modprobe Not tainted 2.6.36-rc6+ #132 QSSC-S4R/QSSC-S4R RIP: 0010:[<ffffffff8116f15e>] [<ffffffff8116f15e>] sysfs_create_dir+0x2e/0xc0 RSP: 0018:ffff88027da25d08 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: ffff88047c68c528 RBX: 00000000fffffffe RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: 000000000000002f RSI: 000000000000002f RDI: ffff88047e196c88 RBP: ffff88027da25d38 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: d84156c5635688c0 R10: d84156c5635688c0 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: ffff88047e196c88 R13: 0000000000000000 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: ffff88047c68c528 FS: 00007fcb0b26f6e0(0000) GS:ffff880287400000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 000000008005003b CR2: 0000000000000051 CR3: 000000047e76e000 CR4: 00000000000006e0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000ffff0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Process modprobe (pid: 7319, threadinfo ffff88027da24000, task ffff88027d377090) Stack: ffff88027da25d58 ffff88047c68c528 00000000fffffffe ffff88047e196c88 <0> ffff88047c68c528 ffff88047e05bd90 ffff88027da25d78 ffffffff8123fb77 <0> ffff88047e05bd90 0000000000000000 ffff88047e196c88 ffff88047c68c528 Call Trace: [<ffffffff8123fb77>] kobject_add_internal+0xe7/0x1f0 [<ffffffff8123fd98>] kobject_add_varg+0x38/0x60 [<ffffffff8123feb9>] kobject_add+0x69/0x90 [<ffffffff8116efe0>] ? sysfs_remove_dir+0x20/0xa0 [<ffffffff8103d48d>] ? sub_preempt_count+0x9d/0xe0 [<ffffffff8143de20>] ? _raw_spin_unlock+0x30/0x50 [<ffffffff8116efe0>] ? sysfs_remove_dir+0x20/0xa0 [<ffffffff8116eff4>] ? sysfs_remove_dir+0x34/0xa0 [<ffffffff81224204>] elv_register_queue+0x34/0xa0 [<ffffffff81224aad>] elevator_change+0xfd/0x250 [<ffffffffa007e000>] ? t_init+0x0/0x361 [t] [<ffffffffa007e000>] ? t_init+0x0/0x361 [t] [<ffffffffa007e0a8>] t_init+0xa8/0x361 [t] [<ffffffff810001de>] do_one_initcall+0x3e/0x170 [<ffffffff8108c3fd>] sys_init_module+0xbd/0x220 [<ffffffff81002f2b>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Code: e5 41 56 41 55 41 54 49 89 fc 53 48 83 ec 10 48 85 ff 74 52 48 8b 47 18 49 c7 c5 00 46 61 81 48 85 c0 74 04 4c 8b 68 30 45 31 f6 <41> 80 7d 51 00 74 0e 49 8b 44 24 28 4c 89 e7 ff 50 20 49 89 c6 RIP [<ffffffff8116f15e>] sysfs_create_dir+0x2e/0xc0 RSP <ffff88027da25d08> CR2: 0000000000000051 ---[ end trace a6541d3bf07945df ]--- Fix this by adding a registered bit to the elevator queue, which is set when the sysfs kobjects have been registered.

block: do not merge requests without consulting with io scheduler Before merging a bio into an existing request, io scheduler is called to get its approval first. However, the requests that come from a plug flush may get merged by block layer without consulting with io scheduler. In case of CFQ, this can cause fairness problems. For instance, if a request gets merged into a low weight cgroup's request, high weight cgroup now will depend on low weight cgroup to get scheduled. If high weigt cgroup needs that io request to complete before submitting more requests, then it will also lose its timeslice. Following script demonstrates the problem. Group g1 has a low weight, g2 and g3 have equal high weights but g2's requests are adjacent to g1's requests so they are subject to merging. Due to these merges, g2 gets poor disk time allocation. cat > cfq-merge-repro.sh << "EOF" #!/bin/bash set -e IO_ROOT=/mnt-cgroup/io mkdir -p $IO_ROOT if ! mount | grep -qw $IO_ROOT; then mount -t cgroup none -oblkio $IO_ROOT fi cd $IO_ROOT for i in g1 g2 g3; do if [ -d $i ]; then rmdir $i fi done mkdir g1 && echo 10 > g1/blkio.weight mkdir g2 && echo 495 > g2/blkio.weight mkdir g3 && echo 495 > g3/blkio.weight RUNTIME=10 (echo $BASHPID > g1/cgroup.procs && fio --readonly --name name1 --filename /dev/sdb \ --rw read --size 64k --bs 64k --time_based \ --runtime=$RUNTIME --offset=0k &> /dev/null)& (echo $BASHPID > g2/cgroup.procs && fio --readonly --name name1 --filename /dev/sdb \ --rw read --size 64k --bs 64k --time_based \ --runtime=$RUNTIME --offset=64k &> /dev/null)& (echo $BASHPID > g3/cgroup.procs && fio --readonly --name name1 --filename /dev/sdb \ --rw read --size 64k --bs 64k --time_based \ --runtime=$RUNTIME --offset=256k &> /dev/null)& sleep $((RUNTIME+1)) for i in g1 g2 g3; do echo ---- $i ---- cat $i/blkio.time done EOF # ./cfq-merge-repro.sh ---- g1 ---- 8:16 162 ---- g2 ---- 8:16 165 ---- g3 ---- 8:16 686 After applying the patch: # ./cfq-merge-repro.sh ---- g1 ---- 8:16 90 ---- g2 ---- 8:16 445 ---- g3 ---- 8:16 471 Signed-off-by: Tahsin Erdogan <tahsin@google.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@fb.com>

block: reimplement FLUSH/FUA to support merge The current FLUSH/FUA support has evolved from the implementation which had to perform queue draining. As such, sequencing is done queue-wide one flush request after another. However, with the draining requirement gone, there's no reason to keep the queue-wide sequential approach. This patch reimplements FLUSH/FUA support such that each FLUSH/FUA request is sequenced individually. The actual FLUSH execution is double buffered and whenever a request wants to execute one for either PRE or POSTFLUSH, it queues on the pending queue. Once certain conditions are met, a flush request is issued and on its completion all pending requests proceed to the next sequence. This allows arbitrary merging of different type of flushes. How they are merged can be primarily controlled and tuned by adjusting the above said 'conditions' used to determine when to issue the next flush. This is inspired by Darrick's patches to merge multiple zero-data flushes which helps workloads with highly concurrent fsync requests. * As flush requests are never put on the IO scheduler, request fields used for flush share space with rq->rb_node. rq->completion_data is moved out of the union. This increases the request size by one pointer. As rq->elevator_private* are used only by the iosched too, it is possible to reduce the request size further. However, to do that, we need to modify request allocation path such that iosched data is not allocated for flush requests. * FLUSH/FUA processing happens on insertion now instead of dispatch. - Comments updated as per Vivek and Mike.

block: drop request->hard_* and *nr_sectors struct request has had a few different ways to represent some properties of a request. ->hard_* represent block layer's view of the request progress (completion cursor) and the ones without the prefix are supposed to represent the issue cursor and allowed to be updated as necessary by the low level drivers. The thing is that as block layer supports partial completion, the two cursors really aren't necessary and only cause confusion. In addition, manual management of request detail from low level drivers is cumbersome and error-prone at the very least. Another interesting duplicate fields are rq->[hard_]nr_sectors and rq->{hard_cur|current}_nr_sectors against rq->data_len and rq->bio->bi_size. This is more convoluted than the hard_ case. rq->[hard_]nr_sectors are initialized for requests with bio but blk_rq_bytes() uses it only for !pc requests. rq->data_len is initialized for all request but blk_rq_bytes() uses it only for pc requests. This causes good amount of confusion throughout block layer and its drivers and determining the request length has been a bit of black magic which may or may not work depending on circumstances and what the specific LLD is actually doing. rq->{hard_cur|current}_nr_sectors represent the number of sectors in the contiguous data area at the front. This is mainly used by drivers which transfers data by walking request segment-by-segment. This value always equals rq->bio->bi_size >> 9. However, data length for pc requests may not be multiple of 512 bytes and using this field becomes a bit confusing. In general, having multiple fields to represent the same property leads only to confusion and subtle bugs. With recent block low level driver cleanups, no driver is accessing or manipulating these duplicate fields directly. Drop all the duplicates. Now rq->sector means the current sector, rq->data_len the current total length and rq->bio->bi_size the current segment length. Everything else is defined in terms of these three and available only through accessors. * blk_recalc_rq_sectors() is collapsed into blk_update_request() and now handles pc and fs requests equally other than rq->sector update. This means that now pc requests can use partial completion too (no in-kernel user yet tho). * bio_cur_sectors() is replaced with bio_cur_bytes() as block layer now uses byte count as the primary data length. * blk_rq_pos() is now guranteed to be always correct. In-block users converted. * blk_rq_bytes() is now guaranteed to be always valid as is blk_rq_sectors(). In-block users converted. * blk_rq_sectors() is now guaranteed to equal blk_rq_bytes() >> 9. More convenient one is used. * blk_rq_bytes() and blk_rq_cur_bytes() are now inlined and take const pointer to request.

block: Introduce elevator features Introduce the definition of elevator features through the elevator_features flags in the elevator_type structure. Each flag can represent a feature supported by an elevator. The first feature defined by this patch is support for zoned block device sequential write constraint with the flag ELEVATOR_F_ZBD_SEQ_WRITE, which is implemented by the mq-deadline elevator using zone write locking. Other possible features are IO priorities, write hints, latency targets or single-LUN dual-actuator disks (for which the elevator could maintain one LBA ordered list per actuator). The required_elevator_features field is also added to the request_queue structure to allow a device driver to specify elevator feature flags that an elevator must support for the correct operation of the device (e.g. device drivers for zoned block devices can have the ELEVATOR_F_ZBD_SEQ_WRITE flag as a required feature). The helper function blk_queue_required_elevator_features() is defined for setting this new field. With these two new fields in place, the elevator functions elevator_match() and elevator_find() are modified to allow a user to set only an elevator with a set of features that satisfies the device required features. Elevators not matching the device requirements are not shown in the device sysfs queue/scheduler file to prevent their use. The "none" elevator can always be selected as before.

[PATCH] BLOCK: Make it possible to disable the block layer [try #6] Make it possible to disable the block layer. Not all embedded devices require it, some can make do with just JFFS2, NFS, ramfs, etc - none of which require the block layer to be present. This patch does the following: (*) Introduces CONFIG_BLOCK to disable the block layer, buffering and blockdev support. (*) Adds dependencies on CONFIG_BLOCK to any configuration item that controls an item that uses the block layer. This includes: (*) Block I/O tracing. (*) Disk partition code. (*) All filesystems that are block based, eg: Ext3, ReiserFS, ISOFS. (*) The SCSI layer. As far as I can tell, even SCSI chardevs use the block layer to do scheduling. Some drivers that use SCSI facilities - such as USB storage - end up disabled indirectly from this. (*) Various block-based device drivers, such as IDE and the old CDROM drivers. (*) MTD blockdev handling and FTL. (*) JFFS - which uses set_bdev_super(), something it could avoid doing by taking a leaf out of JFFS2's book. (*) Makes most of the contents of linux/blkdev.h, linux/buffer_head.h and linux/elevator.h contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK being set. sector_div() is, however, still used in places, and so is still available. (*) Also made contingent are the contents of linux/mpage.h, linux/genhd.h and parts of linux/fs.h. (*) Makes a number of files in fs/ contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) Makes mm/bounce.c (bounce buffering) contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) set_page_dirty() doesn't call __set_page_dirty_buffers() if CONFIG_BLOCK is not enabled. (*) fs/no-block.c is created to hold out-of-line stubs and things that are required when CONFIG_BLOCK is not set: (*) Default blockdev file operations (to give error ENODEV on opening). (*) Makes some /proc changes: (*) /proc/devices does not list any blockdevs. (*) /proc/diskstats and /proc/partitions are contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) Makes some compat ioctl handling contingent on CONFIG_BLOCK. (*) If CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined, makes sys_quotactl() return -ENODEV if given command other than Q_SYNC or if a special device is specified. (*) In init/do_mounts.c, no reference is made to the blockdev routines if CONFIG_BLOCK is not defined. This does not prohibit NFS roots or JFFS2. (*) The bdflush, ioprio_set and ioprio_get syscalls can now be absent (return error ENOSYS by way of cond_syscall if so). (*) The seclvl_bd_claim() and seclvl_bd_release() security calls do nothing if CONFIG_BLOCK is not set, since they can't then happen.
