 "Here is the large set of driver core changes for 6.3-rc1.

  There's a lot of changes this development cycle, most of the work
  falls into two different categories:

   - fw_devlink fixes and updates. This has gone through numerous review
     cycles and lots of review and testing by lots of different devices.
     Hopefully all should be good now, and Saravana will be keeping a
     watch for any potential regression on odd embedded systems.

   - driver core changes to work to make struct bus_type able to be
     moved into read-only memory (i.e. const) The recent work with Rust
     has pointed out a number of areas in the driver core where we are
     passing around and working with structures that really do not have
     to be dynamic at all, and they should be able to be read-only
     making things safer overall. This is the contuation of that work
     (started last release with kobject changes) in moving struct
     bus_type to be constant. We didn't quite make it for this release,
     but the remaining patches will be finished up for the release after
     this one, but the groundwork has been laid for this effort.

  Other than that we have in here:

   - debugfs memory leak fixes in some subsystems

   - error path cleanups and fixes for some never-able-to-be-hit
     codepaths.

   - cacheinfo rework and fixes

   - Other tiny fixes, full details are in the shortlog

  All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported
  problems"

  that there's a pending report that has a fix that is queued up - Linus ]

<title>firewire: move fw_device() and fw_unit() to use container_of_const()</title>

The driver core is changing to pass some pointers as const, so move
fw_device() and fw_unit() functions to use container_of_const() to
handle this change.

fw_device() and fw_unit() now properly keeps the const-ness of the
pointer passed into it, while as before it could be lost.

This also required turning fw_parent_device() into a macro to preserve
the const-ness of the pointer passed into it if necessary.

<title>firewire: cdev: obsolete NULL check to detect IEC 61883-1 FCP region</title>

<content type='text'>
In the character device, the listener to address space should distinguish
whether the request is to IEC 61883-1 FCP region or not. The user space
application needs to access to the object of request in enough later by
read(2), while the core function releases the object of request in the FCP
case after completing the callback to handler.

The handler guarantees the access safe by some way. It's done by
duplication of the object after NULL check to the request, since core
function passes NULL in the FCP case. It's inconvenient since the object
of request includes some helpful information. It's better to add another
way to check whether the request is to FCP region or not.

Conveniently the file of transaction layer includes local implementation
for the purpose. This commit moves it to module local file and use it
instead of the NULL check, then the result of check is stored to
per-client data for the inbound transaction so that the result can be
referred by later to release the data.

In 1394 OHCI specification, descriptor of Asynchronous Receive DMA context
has timeStamp field in its trailer quadlet. The field is written by
the host controller for the time to receive asynchronous request
subaction in isochronous cycle time.

In Linux FireWire subsystem, the value of field is stored to fw_packet
structure and copied to fw_request structure as the part. The fw_request
structure is hidden from unit driver and passed as opaque pointer when
calling registered handler. It's inconvenient to the unit driver which
needs timestamp of packet.

This commit adds kernel API to pick up timestamp from opaque pointer to
fw_request structure.

1394 OHCI specification defined Isochronous Cycle Timer Register to get
value of CYCLE_TIME register defined by IEEE 1394 for CSR architecture
defined by ISO/IEC 13213. Unit driver can calculate packet time by
compute with the value of CYCLE_TIME and timeStamp field in descriptor
of each isochronous and asynchronous context. The resolution of CYCLE_TIME
is 49.576 MHz, while the one of timeStamp is 8,000 Hz.

Current implementation of Linux FireWire subsystem allows the driver to
get the value of CYCLE_TIMER CSR register by transaction service. The
transaction service has overhead in regard of access to MMIO register.

This commit adds kernel API for unit driver to access the register
directly.

<title>firewire: Remove function callback casts</title>

<content type='text'>
In 1394 OHCI specification, Isochronous Receive DMA context has several
modes. One of mode is 'BufferFill' and Linux FireWire stack uses it to
receive isochronous packets for multiple isochronous channel as
FW_ISO_CONTEXT_RECEIVE_MULTICHANNEL.

The mode is not used by in-kernel driver, while it's available for
userspace. The character device driver in firewire-core includes
cast of function callback for the mode since the type of callback
function is different from the other modes. The case is inconvenient
to effort of Control Flow Integrity builds due to
-Wcast-function-type warning.

This commit removes the cast. A static helper function is newly added
to initialize isochronous context for the mode. The helper function
arranges isochronous context to assign specific callback function
after call of existent kernel API. It's noticeable that the number of
isochronous channel, speed, and the size of header are not required for
the mode. The helper function is used for the mode by character device
driver instead of direct call of existent kernel API.

The same goal can be achieved (in the ioctl_create_iso_context function)
without this helper function as follows:
- Call the fw_iso_context_create function passing NULL to the callback
  parameter.
- Then setting the context-&gt;callback.sc or context-&gt;callback.mc
  variables based on the a-&gt;type value.

However using the helper function created in this patch makes code more
clear and declarative. This way avoid the call to a function with one
purpose to achieved another one.

<title>License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license</title>

<id>b24413180f5600bcb3bb70fbed5cf186b60864bd</id>
<content type='text'>
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 &amp; 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 &gt;5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if &lt;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) 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.

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 &amp; 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 &gt;5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if &lt;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) AND MIT)             1

In post commit, a quirk of this firmware about transactions is reported.
This commit apply a workaround for this quirk.

They often fail transactions due to gap_count mismatch. This state is changed
by generating bus reset.

The fw_schedule_bus_reset() is an exported symbol in firewire-core. But there
are no header for public. This commit moves its prototype from
drivers/firewire/core.h to include/linux/firewire.h.

This mismatch still affects bus management before generating this bus reset.
It still takes a time to call driver's probe() because transactions are still
often failed.

<title>firewire: don't use PREPARE_DELAYED_WORK</title>

PREPARE_[DELAYED_]WORK() are being phased out.  They have few users
and a nasty surprise in terms of reentrancy guarantee as workqueue
considers work items to be different if they don't have the same work
function.

firewire core-device and sbp2 have been been multiplexing work items
with multiple work functions.  Introduce fw_device_workfn() and
sbp2_lu_workfn() which invoke fw_device-&gt;workfn and
sbp2_logical_unit-&gt;workfn respectively and always use the two
functions as the work functions and update the users to set the
-&gt;workfn fields instead of overriding work functions using
PREPARE_DELAYED_WORK().

This fixes a variety of possible regressions since a2c1c57be8d9
"workqueue: consider work function when searching for busy work items"
due to which fw_workqueue lost its required non-reentrancy property.

Commit 18d627113b83 (firewire: prevent dropping of completed iso packet
header data) was intended to be an obvious bug fix, but libdc1394 and
FlyCap2 depend on the old behaviour by ignoring all returned information
and thus not noticing that not all packets have been received yet.  The
result was that the video frame buffers would be saved before they
contained the correct data.

Reintroduce the old behaviour for old clients.
