vfs: do bulk POLL* -> EPOLL* replacement

This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
variables as described by Al, done by this script:

for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do

for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
done

with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.

NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do. But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.

The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

orangefs: initialize op on loop restart in orangefs_devreq_read

In orangefs_devreq_read, there is a loop which picks an op off the list
of pending ops. If the loop fails to find an op, there is nothing to
read, and it returns EAGAIN. If the op has been given up on, the loop
is restarted via a goto. The bug is that the variable which the found
op is written to is not reinitialized, so if there are no more eligible
ops on the list, the code runs again on the already handled op.

This is triggered by interrupting a process while the op is being copied
to the client-core. It's a fairly small window, but it's there.

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.

orangefs: add features op

This is a new userspace operation, which will be done if the client-core
version is greater than or equal to 2.9.6. This will provide a way to
implement optional features and to determine which features are
supported by the client-core. If the client-core version is older than
2.9.6, no optional features are supported and the op will not be done.

The intent is to allow protocol extensions without relying on the
client-core's current behavior of ignoring what it doesn't understand.

orangefs: record userspace version for feature compatbility

The client reports its version to the kernel on startup. We already test
that it is above the minimum version. Now we record it in a global
variable so code elsewhere can consult it before making a request the
client may not understand.

orangefs: fix namespace handling

In orangefs_inode_getxattr(), an fsuid is written to dmesg. The kuid is
converted to a userspace uid via from_kuid(current_user_ns(), [...]), but
since dmesg is global, init_user_ns should be used here instead.

In copy_attributes_from_inode(), op_alloc() and fill_default_sys_attrs(),
upcall structures are populated with uids/gids that have been mapped into
the caller's namespace. However, those upcall structures are read by
another process (the userspace filesystem driver), and that process might
be running in another namespace. This effectively lets any user spoof its
uid and gid as seen by the userspace filesystem driver.

To fix the second issue, I just construct the opcall structures with
init_user_ns uids/gids and require the filesystem server to run in the
init namespace. Since orangefs is full of global state anyway (as the error
message in DUMP_DEVICE_ERROR explains, there can only be one userspace
orangefs filesystem driver at once), that shouldn't be a problem.

[
Why does orangefs even exist in the kernel if everything does upcalls into
userspace? What does orangefs do that couldn't be done with the FUSE
interface? If there is no good answer to those questions, I'd prefer to see
orangefs kicked out of the kernel. Can that be done for something that
shipped in a release?

According to commit f7ab093f74bf ("Orangefs: kernel client part 1"), they
even already have a FUSE daemon, and the only rational reason (apart from
"but most of our users report preferring to use our kernel module instead")
given for not wanting to use FUSE is one "in-the-works" feature that could
probably be integated into FUSE instead.
]

This patch has been compile-tested.

orangefs: fix orangefs_superblock locking

* switch orangefs_remount() to taking ORANGEFS_SB(sb) instead of sb
* remove from the list _before_ orangefs_unmount() - request_mutex
in the latter will make sure that nothing observed in the loop in
ORANGEFS_DEV_REMOUNT_ALL handling will get freed until the end
of loop
* on removal, keep the forward pointer and zero the back one. That
way we can drop and regain the spinlock in the loop body (again,
ORANGEFS_DEV_REMOUNT_ALL one) and still be able to get to the
rest of the list.
