"License cleanup: add SPDX license identifiers to some files

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.

Merge branch 'Thunderbolt-networking'

Mika Westerberg says:

====================
Thunderbolt networking

In addition of tunneling PCIe, Display Port and USB traffic, Thunderbolt
allows connecting two hosts (domains) over a Thunderbolt cable. It is
possible to tunnel arbitrary data packets over such connection using
high-speed DMA rings available in the Thunderbolt host controller.

In order to discover Thunderbolt services the other host supports, there is
a software protocol running on top of the automatically configured control
channel (ring 0). This protocol is called XDomain discovery protocol and it
uses XDomain properties to describe the host (domain) and the services it
supports.

Once both sides have agreed what services are supported they can enable
high-speed DMA rings to transfer data over the cable.

This series adds support for the XDomain protocol so that we expose each
remote connection as Thunderbolt XDomain device and each service as
Thunderbolt service device. On top of that we create an API that allows
writing drivers for these services and finally we provide an example
Thunderbolt service driver that creates virtual ethernet inferface that
allows tunneling networking packets over Thunderbolt cable. The API could
be used for creating other future Thunderbolt services, such as tunneling
SCSI over Thunderbolt, for example.

The XDomain protocol and networking support is also available in macOS and
Windows so this makes it possible to connect Linux to macOS and Windows as
well.

The patches are based on previous Thunderbolt networking patch series by
Amir Levy and Michael Jamet, that can be found here:

https://lwn.net/Articles/705998/

The main difference to that patch series is that we have the XDomain
protocol running in the kernel now so there is no need for a separate
userspace daemon.

Note this does not affect the existing functionality, so security levels
and NVM firmware upgrade continue to work as before (with the small
exception that now sysfs also shows the XDomain connections and services in
addition to normal Thunderbolt devices). It is also possible to connect up
to 5 Thunderbolt devices and then another host, and the network driver
works exactly the same.

This is third version of the patch series. The previous versions can be
be found here:

v2: https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/9/25/225
v1: https://lwn.net/Articles/734019/

Changes from the v2:

* Add comment regarding calculation of interrupt throttling value
* Add UUIDs as strings in comments on top of each declaration
* Add a patch removing __packed from existing ICM messages. They are all
32-bit aligned and should pack fine without the __packed.
* Move adding MAINTAINERS entries to a separate patches
* Added Michael and Yehezkel to be maintainers of the network driver
* Remove __packed from the new ICM messages. They should pack fine as
well without it.
* Call register_netdev() after all other initialization is done in the
network driver.
* Use build_skb() instead of copying. We allocate order 1 page here to
leave room for SKB shared info required by build_skb(). However, we do
not leave room for full NET_SKB_PAD because the NHI hardware does not
cope well if a frame crosses 4kB boundary. According comments in
__build_skb() that should still be fine.
* Added Reviewed-by tag from Andy.

Changes from the v1:

* Add include/linux/thunderbolt.h to MAINTAINERS
* Correct Linux version and date of new sysfs entries in
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-thunderbolt
* Move network driver from drivers/thunderbolt/net.c to
drivers/net/thunderbolt.c and update it to follow coding style in
drivers/net/*.
* Add MAINTAINERS entry for the network driver
* Minor cleanups

In case someone wants to try this out, the last patch adds documentation
how the networking driver can be used. In short, if you connect Linux to a
macOS or Windows, everything is done automatically (as those systems have
the networking service enabled by default). For Linux to Linux connection
one host needs to load the networking driver first (so that the other side
can locate the networking service and load the corresponding driver).

thunderbolt: Add support for XDomain discovery protocol

When two hosts are connected over a Thunderbolt cable, there is a
protocol they can use to communicate capabilities supported by the host.
The discovery protocol uses automatically configured control channel
(ring 0) and is build on top of request/response transactions using
special XDomain primitives provided by the Thunderbolt base protocol.

The capabilities consists of a root directory block of basic properties
used for identification of the host, and then there can be zero or more
directories each describing a Thunderbolt service and its capabilities.

Once both sides have discovered what is supported the two hosts can
setup high-speed DMA paths and transfer data to the other side using
whatever protocol was agreed based on the properties. The software
protocol used to communicate which DMA paths to enable is service
specific.

This patch adds support for the XDomain discovery protocol to the
Thunderbolt bus. We model each remote host connection as a Linux XDomain
device. For each Thunderbolt service found supported on the XDomain
device, we create Linux Thunderbolt service device which Thunderbolt
service drivers can then bind to based on the protocol identification
information retrieved from the property directory describing the
service.

This code is based on the work done by Amir Levy and Michael Jamet.

read it instead. Since it most likely will not pass our validation
checks in parse_header() the next request will fail as well, and
response to that request will be pushed to the kfifo, ad infinitum.

We end up in a situation where all requests fail and no devices can be
added anymore until the driver is unloaded and reloaded again.

To overcome this, rework the control channel so that we will have a
queue of outstanding requests. Each request will be handled in turn and
the response is validated against what is expected. Unexpected packets
(for example responses for requests that have been timed out) are
dropped. This model is copied from Greybus implementation with small
changes here and there to get it cope with Thunderbolt control packets.

In addition the configuration packets support sequence number which the
switch is supposed to copy from the request to response. We use this to
drop responses that are already timed out. Taking advantage of the
sequence number, we automatically retry configuration read/write 4 times
before giving up.

Also timeout is not a programming error so there is no need to trigger a
scary backtrace (WARN), instead we just log a warning. After all
Thunderbolt devices are hot-pluggable by definition which means user can
unplug a device any time and that is totally acceptable.

With this change there is no need to take the global domain lock when
sending configuration packets anymore. This is useful when we add
support for cross-domain (XDomain) communication later on.

thunderbolt: Let the connection manager handle all notifications

Currently the control channel (ctl.c) handles the one supported
notification (PLUG_EVENT) and sends back ACK accordingly. However, we
are going to add support for the internal connection manager (ICM) that
needs to handle a different notifications. So instead of dealing
everything in the control channel, we change the callback to take an
arbitrary thunderbolt packet and convert the native connection manager
to handle the event itself.

In addition we only push replies we know of to the response FIFO.
Everything else is treated as notification (or request) and is expected
to be dealt by the connection manager implementation.
