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.

Stefan Richter 286468210d firewire: new driver: nosy - IEEE 1394 traffic sniffer
This adds the traffic sniffer driver for Texas Instruments PCILynx/
PCILynx2 based cards.  The use cases for nosy are analysis of
nonstandard protocols and as an aid in development of drivers,
applications, or firmwares.

Author of the driver is Kristian Høgsberg.  Known contributers are
Jody McIntyre and Jonathan Woithe.

Nosy programs PCILynx chips to operate in promiscuous mode, which is a
feature that is not found in OHCI-1394 controllers.  Hence, only special
hardware as mentioned in the Kconfig help text is suitable for nosy.

This is only the kernelspace part of nosy.  There is a userspace
interface to it, called nosy-dump, proposed to be added into the tools/
subdirectory of the kernel sources in a subsequent change.  Kernelspace
and userspave component of nosy communicate via a 'misc' character
device file called /dev/nosy with a simple ioctl() and read() based
protocol, as described by nosy-user.h.

The files added here are taken from
git://anongit.freedesktop.org/~krh/nosy commit ee29be97 (2009-11-10)
with the following changes by Stefan Richter:
  - Kconfig and Makefile hunks are written from scratch.
  - Commented out version printk in nosy.c.
  - Included missing <linux/sched.h>, reported by Stephen Rothwell.

"git shortlog nosy{-user.h,.c,.h}" from nosy's git repository:

Jonathan Woithe (2):
      Nosy updates for recent kernels
      Fix uninitialised memory (needed for 2.6.31 kernel)

Kristian Høgsberg (5):
      Pull over nosy from mercurial repo.
      Use a misc device instead.
      Add simple AV/C decoder.
      Don't break down on big payloads.
      Set parent device for misc device.

As a low-level IEEE 1394 driver, its files are placed into
drivers/firewire/ although nosy is not part of the firewire driver
stack.

I am aware of the following literature from Texas Instruments about
PCILynx programming:
      SCPA020A - PCILynx 1394 to PCI Bus Interface TSB12LV21BPGF
                 Functional Specification
      SLLA023  - Initialization and Asynchronous Programming of the
                 TSB12LV21A 1394 Device

Jay Fenlason c76acec6d5 firewire: add IPv4 support
Implement IPv4 over IEEE 1394 as per RFC 2734 for the newer firewire
stack.  This feature has only been present in the older ieee1394 stack
via the eth1394 driver.

Still to do:
  - fix ipv4_priv and ipv4_node lifetime logic
  - fix determination of speeds and max payloads
  - fix bus reset handling
  - fix unaligned memory accesses
  - fix coding style
  - further testing/ improvement of fragment reassembly
  - perhaps multicast support

Stefan Richter e71d31da06 firewire: rename source files
The source files of firewire-core, firewire-ohci, firewire-sbp2, i.e.
 "drivers/firewire/fw-*.c"
are renamed to
 "drivers/firewire/core-*.c",
 "drivers/firewire/ohci.c",
 "drivers/firewire/sbp2.c".

The old fw- prefix was redundant to the directory name.  The new core-
prefix distinguishes the files according to which driver they belong to.

This change comes a little late, but still before further firewire
drivers are added as anticipated RSN.
