Allow specifying reboot_mode for panic only.  This is needed on systems
where ramoops is used to store panic logs, and user wants to use warm
reset to preserve those, while still having cold reset on normal
reboots.

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

<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                      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.

<title>kernel/reboot.c: add orderly_reboot for graceful reboot</title>

The kernel has orderly_poweroff which allows the kernel to initiate a
graceful shutdown of userspace, by running /sbin/poweroff.  This adds
orderly_reboot that will cause userspace to shut itself down by calling
/sbin/reboot.

This will be used for shutdown initiated by a system controller on
platforms that do not use ACPI.

orderly_reboot() should be used when the system wants to allow userspace
to gracefully shut itself down.  For cases where the system may imminently
catch on fire, the existing emergency_restart() provides an immediate
reboot without involving userspace.

<title>kernel: add support for kernel restart handler call chain</title>

<id>b63adb979583ef185718d774d8162387db5589c0</id>
<content type='text'>
Various drivers implement architecture and/or device specific means to
restart (reset) the system.  Various mechanisms have been implemented to
support those schemes.  The best known mechanism is arm_pm_restart, which
is a function pointer to be set either from platform specific code or from
drivers.  Another mechanism is to use hardware watchdogs to issue a reset;
this mechanism is used if there is no other method available to reset a
board or system.  Two examples are alim7101_wdt, which currently uses the
reboot notifier to trigger a reset, and moxart_wdt, which registers the
arm_pm_restart function.

The existing mechanisms have a number of drawbacks.  Typically only one
scheme to restart the system is supported (at least if arm_pm_restart is
used).  At least in theory there can be multiple means to restart the
system, some of which may be less desirable (for example one mechanism may
only reset the CPU, while another may reset the entire system).  Using
arm_pm_restart can also be racy if the function pointer is set from a
driver, as the driver may be in the process of being unloaded when
arm_pm_restart is called.  Using the reboot notifier is always racy, as it
is unknown if and when other functions using the reboot notifier have
completed execution by the time the watchdog fires.

Introduce a system restart handler call chain to solve the described
problems.  This call chain is expected to be executed from the
architecture specific machine_restart() function.  Drivers providing
system restart functionality (such as the watchdog drivers mentioned
above) are expected to register with this call chain.  By using the
priority field in the notifier block, callers can control restart handler
execution sequence and thus ensure that the restart handler with the
optimal restart capabilities for a given system is called first.

Various drivers implement architecture and/or device specific means to
restart (reset) the system.  Various mechanisms have been implemented to
support those schemes.  The best known mechanism is arm_pm_restart, which
is a function pointer to be set either from platform specific code or from
drivers.  Another mechanism is to use hardware watchdogs to issue a reset;
this mechanism is used if there is no other method available to reset a
board or system.  Two examples are alim7101_wdt, which currently uses the
reboot notifier to trigger a reset, and moxart_wdt, which registers the
arm_pm_restart function.

The existing mechanisms have a number of drawbacks.  Typically only one
scheme to restart the system is supported (at least if arm_pm_restart is
used).  At least in theory there can be multiple means to restart the
system, some of which may be less desirable (for example one mechanism may
only reset the CPU, while another may reset the entire system).  Using
arm_pm_restart can also be racy if the function pointer is set from a
driver, as the driver may be in the process of being unloaded when
arm_pm_restart is called.  Using the reboot notifier is always racy, as it
is unknown if and when other functions using the reboot notifier have
completed execution by the time the watchdog fires.

Introduce a system restart handler call chain to solve the described
problems.  This call chain is expected to be executed from the
architecture specific machine_restart() function.  Drivers providing
system restart functionality (such as the watchdog drivers mentioned
above) are expected to register with this call chain.  By using the
priority field in the notifier block, callers can control restart handler
execution sequence and thus ensure that the restart handler with the
optimal restart capabilities for a given system is called first.

<title>x86: Remove the PCI reboot method from the default chain</title>

Steve reported a reboot hang and bisected it back to this commit:

  a4f1987e4c54 x86, reboot: Add EFI and CF9 reboot methods into the default list

He heroically tested all reboot methods and found the following:

  reboot=t       # triple fault                  ok
  reboot=k       # keyboard ctrl                 FAIL
  reboot=b       # BIOS                          ok
  reboot=a       # ACPI                          FAIL
  reboot=e       # EFI                           FAIL   [system has no EFI]
  reboot=p       # PCI 0xcf9                     FAIL

And I think it's pretty obvious that we should only try PCI 0xcf9 as a
last resort - if at all.

The other observation is that (on this box) we should never try
the PCI reboot method, but close with either the 'triple fault'
or the 'BIOS' (terminal!) reboot methods.

Thirdly, CF9_COND is a total misnomer - it should be something like
CF9_SAFE or CF9_CAREFUL, and 'CF9' should be 'CF9_FORCE' ...

So this patch fixes the worst problems:

 - it orders the actual reboot logic to follow the reboot ordering
   pattern - it was in a pretty random order before for no good
   reason.

 - it fixes the CF9 misnomers and uses BOOT_CF9_FORCE and
   BOOT_CF9_SAFE flags to make the code more obvious.

 - it tries the BIOS reboot method before the PCI reboot method.
   (Since 'BIOS' is a terminal reboot method resulting in a hang
    if it does not work, this is essentially equivalent to removing
    the PCI reboot method from the default reboot chain.)

 - just for the miraculous possibility of terminal (resulting
   in hang) reboot methods of triple fault or BIOS returning
   without having done their job, there's an ordering between
   them as well.

<title>kexec: migrate to reboot cpu</title>

Commit 1b3a5d02ee07 ("reboot: move arch/x86 reboot= handling to generic
kernel") moved reboot= handling to generic code.  In the process it also
removed the code in native_machine_shutdown() which are moving reboot
process to reboot_cpu/cpu0.

I guess that thought must have been that all reboot paths are calling
migrate_to_reboot_cpu(), so we don't need this special handling.  But
kexec reboot path (kernel_kexec()) is not calling
migrate_to_reboot_cpu() so above change broke kexec.  Now reboot can
happen on non-boot cpu and when INIT is sent in second kerneo to bring
up BP, it brings down the machine.

So start calling migrate_to_reboot_cpu() in kexec reboot path to avoid
this problem.
