<title>crypto: drop mask=CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC from 'cipher' tfm allocations</title>

<id>urn:sha1:1ad0f1603a6b2afb62a1c065409aaa4e43ca7627</id>
<content type='text'>
'cipher' algorithms (single block ciphers) are always synchronous, so
passing CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC in the mask to crypto_alloc_cipher() has no
effect.  Many users therefore already don't pass it, but some still do.
This inconsistency can cause confusion, especially since the way the
'mask' argument works is somewhat counterintuitive.

Thus, just remove the unneeded CRYPTO_ALG_ASYNC flags.

This patch shouldn't change any actual behavior.

<content type='text'>
It looks like we wanted to print a maximum of BSSList_rid.ssidLen bytes
of the ssid, but we accidentally use "%*s" (width) instead of "%.*s"
(precision) so if the ssid doesn't have a NUL terminator this could lead
to an overflow.

Static analysis.  Not tested.

Variables len and dev assigned values but are never used hence they
are redundant and can be removed.  Also add in white space in for-loop
and remove some { } braces on if statement.

Cleans up clang warnings:
warning: variable 'len' set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]
warning: variable 'dev' set but not used [-Wunused-but-set-variable]

<title>treewide: kmalloc() -&gt; kmalloc_array()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:6da2ec56059c3c7a7e5f729e6349e74ace1e5c57</id>
<content type='text'>
The kmalloc() function has a 2-factor argument form, kmalloc_array(). This
patch replaces cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b, gfp)

with:
        kmalloc_array(a * b, gfp)

as well as handling cases of:

        kmalloc(a * b * c, gfp)

with:

        kmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp)

as it's slightly less ugly than:

        kmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp)

This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like:

        kmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp)

though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion.

Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were
dropped, since they're redundant.

The tools/ directory was manually excluded, since it has its own
implementation of kmalloc().

The Coccinelle script used for this was:

Pull networking updates from David Miller:

 1) Support offloading wireless authentication to userspace via
    NL80211_CMD_EXTERNAL_AUTH, from Srinivas Dasari.

 2) A lot of work on network namespace setup/teardown from Kirill Tkhai.
    Setup and cleanup of namespaces now all run asynchronously and thus
    performance is significantly increased.

 3) Add rx/tx timestamping support to mv88e6xxx driver, from Brandon
    Streiff.

 4) Support zerocopy on RDS sockets, from Sowmini Varadhan.

 5) Use denser instruction encoding in x86 eBPF JIT, from Daniel
    Borkmann.

 6) Support hw offload of vlan filtering in mvpp2 dreiver, from Maxime
    Chevallier.

 7) Support grafting of child qdiscs in mlxsw driver, from Nogah
    Frankel.

 8) Add packet forwarding tests to selftests, from Ido Schimmel.

 9) Deal with sub-optimal GSO packets better in BBR congestion control,
    from Eric Dumazet.

10) Support 5-tuple hashing in ipv6 multipath routing, from David Ahern.

11) Add path MTU tests to selftests, from Stefano Brivio.

12) Various bits of IPSEC offloading support for mlx5, from Aviad
    Yehezkel, Yossi Kuperman, and Saeed Mahameed.

13) Support RSS spreading on ntuple filters in SFC driver, from Edward
    Cree.

14) Lots of sockmap work from John Fastabend. Applications can use eBPF
    to filter sendmsg and sendpage operations.

15) In-kernel receive TLS support, from Dave Watson.

16) Add XDP support to ixgbevf, this is significant because it should
    allow optimized XDP usage in various cloud environments. From Tony
    Nguyen.

17) Add new Intel E800 series "ice" ethernet driver, from Anirudh
    Venkataramanan et al.

18) IP fragmentation match offload support in nfp driver, from Pieter
    Jansen van Vuuren.

19) Support XDP redirect in i40e driver, from Björn Töpel.

20) Add BPF_RAW_TRACEPOINT program type for accessing the arguments of
    tracepoints in their raw form, from Alexei Starovoitov.

21) Lots of striding RQ improvements to mlx5 driver with many
    performance improvements, from Tariq Toukan.

22) Use rhashtable for inet frag reassembly, from Eric Dumazet.

Lots of the wireless driver vendor Kconfig symol help text says
"questions about  cards." (2 spaces between "about" and "cards")

Besides dropping one of those spaces, it also needs some other word
inserted there. Instead of putting each vendor's name there, I chose
to say "these" cards in all of the Kconfig help text.

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 &amp; 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 &gt;5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if &lt;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.
