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.

The quadspi is a specialized communication interface targeting single,
dual or quad SPI Flash memories.
It can operate in any of the following modes:
-indirect mode: all the operations are performed using the quadspi
registers
-read memory-mapped mode: the external Flash memory is mapped to the
microcontroller address space and is seen by the system as if it was
an internal memory

Merge tag 'ib-mfd-mtd-v4.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lee/mfd
From Lee Jones:
"""
Immutable branch between MFD and MTD due for the v4.11 merge window
"""
This driver adds mtd support for the Aspeed AST2500 SoC static memory
controllers :
* Firmware SPI Memory Controller (FMC)
. BMC firmware
. 3 chip select pins (CE0 ~ CE2)
. supports SPI type flash memory (CE0-CE1)
. CE2 can be of NOR type flash but this is not supported by the
driver
* SPI Flash Controller (SPI1 and SPI2)
. host firmware
. 2 chip select pins (CE0 ~ CE1)
. supports SPI type flash memory
Each controller has a memory range on which it maps its flash module
slaves. Each slave is assigned a memory window for its mapping that
can be changed at bootime with the Segment Address Register.
Each SPI flash slave can then be accessed in two modes: Command and
User. When in User mode, accesses to the memory segment of the slaves
are translated in SPI transfers. When in Command mode, the HW
generates the SPI commands automatically and the memory segment is
accessed as if doing a MMIO.
Currently, only the User mode is supported. Command mode needs a
little more work to check that the memory window on the AHB bus fits
the module size.

Add support for the SPI serial flash host controller found on many Intel
CPUs including Baytrail and Braswell. The SPI serial flash controller is
used to access BIOS and other platform specific information. By default the
driver exposes a single read-only MTD device but with a module parameter
"writeable=1" the MTD device can be made read-write which makes it possible
to upgrade BIOS directly from Linux.

(0) What is the QuadSPI controller?
The QuadSPI(Quad Serial Peripheral Interface) acts as an interface to
one single or two external serial flash devices, each with up to 4
bidirectional data lines.
(1) The QuadSPI controller is driven by the LUT(Look-up Table) registers.
The LUT registers are a look-up-table for sequences of instructions.
A valid sequence consists of four LUT registers.
(2) The definition of the LUT register shows below:
---------------------------------------------------
| INSTR1 | PAD1 | OPRND1 | INSTR0 | PAD0 | OPRND0 |
---------------------------------------------------
There are several types of INSTRx, such as:
CMD : the SPI NOR command.
ADDR : the address for the SPI NOR command.
DUMMY : the dummy cycles needed by the SPI NOR command.
....
There are several types of PADx, such as:
PAD1 : use a singe I/O line.
PAD2 : use two I/O lines.
PAD4 : use quad I/O lines.
....
(3) Test this driver with the JFFS2 and UBIFS:
For jffs2:
-------------
#flash_eraseall /dev/mtd0
#mount -t jffs2 /dev/mtdblock0 tmp
#bonnie++ -d tmp -u 0 -s 10 -r 5
For ubifs:
-------------
#flash_eraseall /dev/mtd0
#ubiattach /dev/ubi_ctrl -m 0
#ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -N test -m
#mount -t ubifs ubi0:test tmp
#bonnie++ -d tmp -u 0 -s 10 -r 5
