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 callback were meant to allow overriding a FE callback, before its
call, but it is not really needed, as the callback can be intercepted
after tuner attachment.
Worse than that, only DVBv3 calls are intercepted this way, so a DVBv5
application will produce different effects than a DVBv3 one.
So, get rid of it.

This patch marks those two functions as static:
static int videobuf_dvb_register_adapter(struct videobuf_dvb_frontends *fe,
static int videobuf_dvb_register_frontend(struct dvb_adapter *adapter,
Since MFE patches changed their calls by videobuf_dvb_register_bus.
To avoid having to declare the prototypes, the patch moves
videobuf_dvb_register_bus() to be after the declaration of the above functions
used there.

This add frontend R/W mutual exclusion.
Prior to this point in time it was possible to open both
frontends simultaneously which an MFE card cannot support.
In order to stop this, a delayed open is performed which
has the following function:
- Return EBUSY after a configurable amount of time
if a frontend is unavailable due to the other being
in use.
- Only allow opening of a frontend if the kernel thread
of the other has stopped.
This solution was chosen to allow switching between
frontends to work as seamlessly as possible. When both
frontends are actually opened simultaneously then one
will only open, but if quick switching is performed
between one of many then the new open will succeed in
a clean fashion rather than interrupting a kernel
thread.

This adds a configurable (one per card) gate control option
for multi-frontend. Prior to this point gate control was
assumed to be on the primary frontend, this is a fault
when the gate to the analogue section is on the secondary

in MFE.

A detailed description from the original patches 2 years ago:
"The WinTV-HVR3000 has a single transport bus which is shared between
a DVB-T and DVB-S modulator. These patches build on the bus acquisition
cx88 work from a few weeks ago to add support for this.
So to applications the HVR3000 looks like this:
/dev/dvb/adapter0/fe0 (cx24123 DVB-S demod)
/dev/dvb/adapter0/fe1 (cx22702 DVB-T demod)
Additional boards continue as before, eg:
/dev/dvb/adapter1/fe0 (lgdt3302 ATSC demod)
The basic change is removing the single instance of the videobuf_dvb in
cx8802_dev and saa7134_dev(?) and replacing it with a list and some
supporting functions.
*NOTE* This branch was taken before v4l-dvb was closed for 2.6.19 so
two or three current cx88 patches appear to be reversed by this tree,
this will be cleaned up in the near future. The patches missing change
the mutex handing to core->lock, fix an enumeration problem."
It should be recognised that a number of people have been maintaining
this patchset. Significant levels of Kudos to everyone one involved,
including but not limited to:
Darron Broad
Fabio M. Di Nitto
Carlo Scarfoglio
Hans Werner
Without the work of these people, and countless others, my two year old
patches would of died on the Mercurial linuxtv.org vine a long time
ago.
TODO: Revise these patches a little further so that the need for
demux1 and dvr0 is optional, not mandatory on the HVR3000.
HISTORY (darron):
This is the last update to MFE prepared by Hans which is based
upon the `scratchpad' diff created by Carlo.
All MFE work prior to that point must be attributed to Fabio
who ported and maintained Steve's original patch up to that
time.

The adapter_nr module options can be used to allocate static adapter
numbers on a driver level. It avoids problems with changing DVB apapter
numbers after warm/cold boot or device unplugging and repluging.
Each driver holds DVB_MAX_ADAPTER long array of the preferred order of
adapter numbers.
options dvb-usb-dib0700 adapter_nr=7,6,5,4,3,2,1,0 would result in a
reversed allocation of adapter numbers.
With adapter_nr=2,5 it tries first to get adapter number 2 and 5. If
both are already in use it will allocate the lowest free adapter number.
