      tools/thermal: Fix possible path truncations · 6c58cf40
      Florian Fainelli authored 
      
A build with -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 enabled will produce the following warnings:

sysfs.c:63:30: warning: '%s' directive output may be truncated writing up to 255 bytes into a region of size between 0 and 255 [-Wformat-truncation=]
  snprintf(filepath, 256, "%s/%s", path, filename);
                              ^~
Bump up the buffer to PATH_MAX which is the limit and account for all of
the possible NUL and separators that could lead to exceeding the
allocated buffer sizes.

      tools: do not include scripts/Kbuild.include · b61442df
      Masahiro Yamada authored 
      Since commit 57fd251c ("kbuild: split cc-option and friends to
scripts/Makefile.compiler"), some kselftests fail to build.

The tools/ directory opted out Kbuild, and went in a different
direction. People copied scripts and Makefiles to the tools/ directory
to create their own build system.

tools/build/Build.include mimics scripts/Kbuild.include, but some
tool Makefiles include the Kbuild one to import a feature that is
missing in tools/build/Build.include:

 - Commit ec04aa3a ("tools/thermal: tmon: use "-fstack-protector"
   only if supported") included scripts/Kbuild.include from
   tools/thermal/tmon/Makefile to import the cc-option macro.

 - Commit c2390f16 ("selftests: kvm: fix for compilers that do
   not support -no-pie") included scripts/Kbuild.include from
   tools/testing/selftests/kvm/Makefile to import the try-run macro.

 - Commit 9cae4ace ("selftests/bpf: do not ignore clang
   failures") included scripts/Kbuild.include from
   tools/testing/selftests/bpf/Makefile to import the .DELETE_ON_ERROR
   target.

 - Commit 0695f8bc ("selftests/powerpc: Handle Makefile for
   unrecognized option") included scripts/Kbuild.include from
   tools/testing/selftests/powerpc/pmu/ebb/Makefile to import the
   try-run macro.

Copy what they need into tools/build/Build.include, and make them
include it instead of scripts/Kbuild.include.

      tools/thermal: tmon: fix for segfault · 6c59f64b
      Frank Asseg authored 
      
Fixes a segfault occurring when e.g. <TAB> is pressed multiple times in the
ncurses tmon application. The segfault is caused by incrementing
cur_thermal_record in the main function without checking if it's value reached
NR_THERMAL_RECORD immediately. Since the boundary check only occurred in
update_thermal_data a race condition existed, which lead to an attempted read
beyond the last element of the trec array.

The fix was implemented by moving the cur_thermal_record incrementation to the
update_thermal_data function using a temporary variable on which the boundary
condition is checked before updating cur_thread_record, so that the variable is
never incremented beyond the trec array's boundary.

It seems the segfault does not occur on every machine: On a HP EliteBook G4 the
segfault happens, while it does not happen on a Thinkpad T540p.

      License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license · b2441318
      Greg Kroah-Hartman authored 
      
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.

      tmon: set umask to a reasonable value · 4adccf9f
      Neil Horman authored 
      
Currently, the tmon umask value is set to 0, which means whatever the permission
mask in the shell are when starting tmon in daemon mode are what the permissions
of any created files will be.  We should likely set something more explicit, so
lets go with the usual 022

      tmon: Check log file for common secuirty issues · 951fda3d
      Neil Horman authored 
      
The tmon logging system blindly opens its log file on a static path, making it
very easy for someone to redirect that log information to inappropriate places
or overwrite other users data.  Do some easy checking to make sure we're not
logging to a symlink or a file owned by another user.

      tools/thermal: Introduce tmon, a tool for thermal subsystem · 94f69966
      Jacob Pan authored 
      
Increasingly, Linux is running on thermally constrained devices. The simple
thermal relationship between processor and fan has become past for modern
computers.

As hardware vendors cope with the thermal constraints on their products,
more sensors are added, new cooling capabilities are introduced. The
complexity of the thermal relationship can grow exponentially among cooling
devices, zones, sensors, and trip points. They can also change dynamically.

To expose such relationship to the userspace, Linux generic thermal layer
introduced sysfs entry at /sys/class/thermal with a matrix of symbolic
links, trip point bindings, and device instances. To traverse such
matrix by hand is not a trivial task. Testing is also difficult in that
thermal conditions are often exception cases that hard to reach in
normal operations.

TMON is conceived as a tool to help visualize, tune, and test the
complex thermal subsystem.
