License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with a license

2017-11-02T10:20:11+00:00

Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either
incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the
license under which the file is supposed to be.  This makes it hard for
compliance tools to determine the correct license.

Update these files with an SPDX license identifier.  The identifier was
chosen based on the license information in the file.

GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license
identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is
the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall
exception:

   NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
   services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
   of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".

This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL
code, without confusing license compliance tools.

Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed
under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX
identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier.  The format
is:
        ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE)

SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be
used instead of the full boiler plate text.  The update does not remove
existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case
basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will
happen in a separate step.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.  See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with no license

2017-11-02T10:19:54+00:00

Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2.  Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:

   NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
   services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
   of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".

otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.

Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier.  The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception.  SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

mm: arch: consolidate mmap hugetlb size encodings

2017-09-07T00:27:28+00:00

A non-default huge page size can be encoded in the flags argument of the
mmap system call.  The definitions for these encodings are in arch
specific header files.  However, all architectures use the same values.

Consolidate all the definitions in the primary user header file
(uapi/linux/mman.h).  Include definitions for all known huge page sizes.
Use the generic encoding definitions in hugetlb_encode.h as the basis
for these definitions.

KVM: PPC: Book3S HV: Exit guest upon MCE when FWNMI capability is enabled

2017-06-22T01:24:57+00:00

Enhance KVM to cause a guest exit with KVM_EXIT_NMI
exit reason upon a machine check exception (MCE) in
the guest address space if the KVM_CAP_PPC_FWNMI
capability is enabled (instead of delivering a 0x200
interrupt to guest). This enables QEMU to build error
log and deliver machine check exception to guest via
guest registered machine check handler.

This approach simplifies the delivery of machine
check exception to guest OS compared to the earlier
approach of KVM directly invoking 0x200 guest interrupt
vector.

This design/approach is based on the feedback for the
QEMU patches to handle machine check exception. Details
of earlier approach of handling machine check exception
in QEMU and related discussions can be found at:

https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2014-11/msg00813.html

Note:

This patch now directly invokes machine_check_print_event_info()
from kvmppc_handle_exit_hv() to print the event to host console
at the time of guest exit before the exception is passed on to the
guest. Hence, the host-side handling which was performed earlier
via machine_check_fwnmi is removed.

The reasons for this approach is (i) it is not possible
to distinguish whether the exception occurred in the
guest or the host from the pt_regs passed on the
machine_check_exception(). Hence machine_check_exception()
calls panic, instead of passing on the exception to
the guest, if the machine check exception is not
recoverable. (ii) the approach introduced in this
patch gives opportunity to the host kernel to perform
actions in virtual mode before passing on the exception
to the guest. This approach does not require complex
tweaks to machine_check_fwnmi and friends.

tty: add TIOCGPTPEER ioctl

2017-06-09T10:27:54+00:00

When opening the slave end of a PTY, it is not possible for userspace to
safely ensure that /dev/pts/$num is actually a slave (in cases where the
mount namespace in which devpts was mounted is controlled by an
untrusted process). In addition, there are several unresolvable
race conditions if userspace were to attempt to detect attacks through
stat(2) and other similar methods [in addition it is not clear how
userspace could detect attacks involving FUSE].

Resolve this by providing an interface for userpace to safely open the
"peer" end of a PTY file descriptor by using the dentry cached by
devpts. Since it is not possible to have an open master PTY without
having its slave exposed in /dev/pts this interface is safe. This
interface currently does not provide a way to get the master pty (since
it is not clear whether such an interface is safe or even useful).
