b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
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.

953c7f82eb drm/i915: Provide a hook for selftests
Some pieces of code are independent of hardware but are very tricky to
exercise through the normal userspace ABI or via debugfs hooks. Being
able to create mock unit tests and execute them through CI is vital.
Start by adding a central point where we can execute unit tests and
a parameter to enable them. This is disabled by default as the
expectation is that these tests will occasionally explode.

To facilitate integration with igt, any parameter beginning with
i915.igt__ is interpreted as a subtest executable independently via
igt/drv_selftest.

Two classes of selftests are recognised: mock unit tests and integration
tests. Mock unit tests are run as soon as the module is loaded, before
the device is probed. At that point there is no driver instantiated and
all hw interactions must be "mocked". This is very useful for writing
universal tests to exercise code not typically run on a broad range of
architectures. Alternatively, you can hook into the live selftests and
run when the device has been instantiated - hw interactions are real.

v2: Add a macro for compiling conditional code for mock objects inside
real objects.
v3: Differentiate between mock unit tests and late integration test.
v4: List the tests in natural order, use igt to sort after modparam.
v5: s/late/live/
v6: s/unsigned long/unsigned int/
v7: Use igt_ prefixes for long helpers.
v8: Deobfuscate macros overriding functions, stop using -I$(src)

ef426c1038 Merge tag 'drm-misc-next-2016-12-30' of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/git/drm-misc into drm-intel-next-queued
Directly merge drm-misc into drm-intel since Dave is on vacation and
we need the various drm-misc patches (fb format rework, drm mm fixes,
selftest framework and others). Also pulled back -rc2 in first to
resync with drm-intel-fixes and make sure I can reuse the exact rerere
solutions from drm-tip for safety, and because I'm lazy.

50f0033d1a drm: Add some kselftests for the DRM range manager (struct drm_mm)
First we introduce a smattering of infrastructure for writing selftests.
The idea is that we have a test module that exercises a particular
portion of the exported API, and that module provides a set of tests
that can either be run as an ensemble via kselftest or individually via
an igt harness (in this case igt/drm_mm). To accommodate selecting
individual tests, we export a boolean parameter to control selection of
each test - that is hidden inside a bunch of reusable boilerplate macros
to keep writing the tests simple.

v2: Choose a random random_seed unless one is specified by the user.
v3: More parameters to control max_iterations and max_prime of the
tests.

Testcase: igt/drm_mm

c461265679 kselftests: Exercise hw-independent mock tests for i915.ko
Although being a GPU driver most functionality of i915.ko depends upon
real hardware, many of its internal interfaces can be "mocked" and so
tested independently of any hardware. Expanding the test coverage is not
only useful for i915.ko, but should provide some integration tests for
core infrastructure as well.

Loading i915.ko with mock_selftests=-1 will cause it to execute its mock
tests then fail with -ENOTTY. If the driver is already loaded and bound
to hardware, it requires a few more steps to unbind, and so the simple
preliminary modprobe -r will fail.
