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.

This commit adds a new trigger responsible for turning on LED when USB
device gets connected to the selected USB port. This can can useful for
various home routers that have USB port(s) and a proper LED telling user
a device is connected.
The trigger gets its documentation file but basically it just requires
enabling it and selecting USB ports (e.g. echo 1 > ports/usb1-1).
There was a long discussion on design of this driver. Its current state
is a result of picking them most adjustable solution as others couldn't
handle all cases.
1) It wasn't possible for the driver to register separated trigger for
each USB port. Some physical USB ports are handled by more than one
controller and so by more than one USB port. E.g. USB 2.0 physical
port may be handled by OHCI's port and EHCI's port.
It's also not possible to assign more than 1 trigger to a single LED
and implementing such feature would be tricky due to syncing triggers
and sysfs conflicts with old triggers.
2) Another idea was to register trigger per USB hub. This wouldn't allow
handling devices with multiple USB LEDs and controllers (hubs)
controlling more than 1 physical port. It's common for hubs to have
few ports and each may have its own LED.
This final trigger is highly flexible. It allows selecting any USB ports
for any LED. It was also modified (comparing to the initial version) to
allow choosing ports rather than having user /guess/ proper names. It
was successfully tested on SmartRG SR400ac which has 3 USB LEDs,
2 physical ports and 3 controllers.
It was noted USB subsystem already has usb-gadget and usb-host triggers
but they are pretty trivial ones. They indicate activity only and can't
have ports specified.
In future it may be good idea to consider adding activity support to
usbport as well. This should allow switching to this more generic driver
and maybe marking old ones as obsolete.
This can be implemented with another sysfs file for setting mode. The
default mode wouldn't change so there won't be ABI breakage and so such
feature can be safely implemented later.
There was also an idea of supporting other devices (PCI, SDIO, etc.) but
as this driver already contains some USB specific code (and will get
more) these should be probably separated drivers (triggers).

Although most of USB devices are hot-plug's, there are still some devices
are hard wired on the board, eg, for HSIC and SSIC interface USB devices.
If these kinds of USB devices are multiple functions, and they can supply
other interfaces like i2c, gpios for other devices, we may need to
describe these at device tree.
In this commit, it uses "reg" in dts as physical port number to match
the phyiscal port number decided by USB core, if they are the same,
then the device node is for the device we are creating for USB core.

CONFIG_USB_DEBUG is going away, so remove the few places in the USB core
that relied on them.
This means that we always now do the "debug" checks for every urb
submitted, which is a good idea, as who knows how many driver bugs we
have been ignoring when people forget to enable this option. Also, with
the overall speed of USB, doing these extra checks should not cause any
additional overhead.
Also, no longer announce all devices being added to the system if
CONFIG_USB_DEBUG is enabled, as it's not going to be around much longer.

moved usbfs to be an "embedded" option only, the developers miss the

This revised patch (as713b) moves a few routines among source files in
usbcore. Some driver-related code in usb.c (claiming interfaces and
matching IDs) is moved to driver.c, where it belongs. Also the
usb_generic stuff in driver.c is moved to a new source file: generic.c.
(That's the reason for revising the patch.) Although not very big now,
it will get bigger in a later patch.
None of the code has been changed; it has only been re-arranged.

This patch introduces a /sys/class/usb_device/ class
where every connected usb-device will show up:
tree /sys/class/usb_device/
/sys/class/usb_device/
|-- usb1.1
| |-- dev
| `-- device -> ../../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.0/usb1
|-- usb2.1
| |-- dev
| `-- device -> ../../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb2
...
The presence of the "dev" file lets udev create real device nodes.
kay@pim:~/src/linux-2.6> tree /dev/bus/usb/
/dev/bus/usb/
|-- 1
| `-- 1
|-- 2

udev rule:
SUBSYSTEM="usb_device", PROGRAM="/sbin/usb_device %k", NAME="%c"
(echo $1 | /bin/sed 's/usb\([0-9]*\)\.\([0-9]*\)/bus\/usb\/\1\/\2/')
This makes libusb pick up the real nodes instead of the mounted usbfs:
export USB_DEVFS_PATH=/dev/bus/usb
Background:
All this makes it possible to manage usb devices with udev instead of
the devfs solution. We are currently working on a pam_console/resmgr
replacement driven by udev and a pam-helper. It applies ACL's to device
nodes, which is required for modern desktop functionalty like
"Fast User Switching" or multiple local login support.
New patch with its own major. I've succesfully disabled usbfs and use real
nodes only on my box. With: "export USB_DEVFS_PATH=/dev/bus/usb" libusb picks
up the udev managed nodes instead of reading usbfs files.
This makes udev to provide symlinks for libusb to pick up:
SUBSYSTEM="usb_device", PROGRAM="/sbin/usbdevice %k", SYMLINK="%c"
/sbin/usbdevice:
#!/bin/sh

archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
