Linus Torvalds c90fca951e powerpc updates for 4.18
Notable changes:
 
  - Support for split PMD page table lock on 64-bit Book3S (Power8/9).
 
  - Add support for HAVE_RELIABLE_STACKTRACE, so we properly support live
    patching again.
 
  - Add support for patching barrier_nospec in copy_from_user() and syscall entry.
 
  - A couple of fixes for our data breakpoints on Book3S.
 
  - A series from Nick optimising TLB/mm handling with the Radix MMU.
 
  - Numerous small cleanups to squash sparse/gcc warnings from Mathieu Malaterre.
 
  - Several series optimising various parts of the 32-bit code from Christophe Leroy.
 
  - Removal of support for two old machines, "SBC834xE" and "C2K" ("GEFanuc,C2K"),
    which is why the diffstat has so many deletions.
 
 And many other small improvements & fixes.
 
 There's a few out-of-area changes. Some minor ftrace changes OK'ed by Steve, and
 a fix to our powernv cpuidle driver. Then there's a series touching mm, x86 and
 fs/proc/task_mmu.c, which cleans up some details around pkey support. It was
 ack'ed/reviewed by Ingo & Dave and has been in next for several weeks.

Arnd Bergmann 2dc20f454d powerpc: rtas: clean up time handling
The to_tm() helper function operates on a signed integer for the time,
so it will suffer from overflow in 2038, even on 64-bit kernels.

Rather than fix that function, this replaces its use in the rtas
procfs implementation with the standard rtc_time64_to_tm() helper
that is very similar but is not affected by the overflow.

In order to actually support long times, the parser function gets
changed to 64-bit user input and output as well. Note that the tm_mon
and tm_year representation is slightly different, so we have to manually
add an offset here.

Russell Currey 57ad583f20 powerpc: Use octal numbers for file permissions
Symbolic macros are unintuitive and hard to read, whereas octal constants
are much easier to interpret.  Replace macros for the basic permission
flags (user/group/other read/write/execute) with numeric constants
instead, across the whole powerpc tree.

Introducing a significant number of changes across the tree for no runtime
benefit isn't exactly desirable, but so long as these macros are still
used in the tree people will keep sending patches that add them.  Not only
are they hard to parse at a glance, there are multiple ways of coming to
the same value (as you can see with 0444 and 0644 in this patch) which
hurts readability.

Greg Kroah-Hartman b24413180f 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.

This removes statically assigned platform numbers and reworks the
powerpc platform probe code to use a better mechanism.  With this,
board support files can simply declare a new machine type with a
macro, and implement a probe() function that uses the flattened
device-tree to detect if they apply for a given machine.

We now have a machine_is() macro that replaces the comparisons of
_machine with the various PLATFORM_* constants.  This commit also
changes various drivers to use the new macro instead of looking at
_machine.

Benjamin Herrenschmidt a7f290dad3 [PATCH] powerpc: Merge vdso's and add vdso support to 32 bits kernel
This patch moves the vdso's to arch/powerpc, adds support for the 32
bits vdso to the 32 bits kernel, rename systemcfg (finally !), and adds
some new (still untested) routines to both vdso's: clock_gettime() with
support for CLOCK_REALTIME and CLOCK_MONOTONIC, clock_getres() (same
clocks) and get_tbfreq() for glibc to retreive the timebase frequency.

Tom,Steve: The implementation of get_tbfreq() I've done for 32 bits
returns a long long (r3, r4) not a long. This is such that if we ever
add support for >4Ghz timebases on ppc32, the userland interface won't
have to change.

I have tested gettimeofday() using some glibc patches in both ppc32 and
ppc64 kernels using 32 bits userland (I haven't had a chance to test a
64 bits userland yet, but the implementation didn't change and was
tested earlier). I haven't tested yet the new functions.

This patch merges platform codes.  systemcfg->platform is no longer used,
systemcfg use in general is deprecated as much as possible (and renamed
_systemcfg before it gets completely moved elsewhere in a future patch),
_machine is now used on ppc64 along as ppc32.  Platform codes aren't gone
yet but we are getting a step closer. A bunch of asm code in head[_64].S
is also turned into C code.

Paul Mackerras f4fcbbe9a7 powerpc: Merge remaining RTAS code
This moves rtas-proc.c and rtas_flash.c into arch/powerpc/kernel, since
cell wants them as well as pseries (and chrp can use rtas-proc.c too,
at least in principle).  rtas_fw.c is gone, with its bits moved into
rtas_flash.c and rtas.c.
