Currently, setlocalversion uses any annotated tag for git-describe.
If we are at a tagged commit, it will not append the commit hash.
$ git checkout v6.2-rc1^
$ make -s defconfig kernelrelease
6.1.0-14595-g292a089d78d3
$ git tag -a foo -m foo
$ make -s kernelrelease
6.1.0
If a local tag 'foo' exists, it pretends to be a released version
'6.1.0', while there are many commits on top of it.
The output should be consistent irrespective of such a local tag.
Pass the correct release tag to --match option of git-describe.
In the mainline kernel, the SUBLEVEL is always '0', which is omitted
from the tag.
KERNELVERSION annotated tag
6.1.0 -> v6.1 (mainline)
6.2.0-rc5 -> v6.2-rc5 (mainline, release candidate)
6.1.7 -> v6.1.7 (stable)
To preserve the behavior in linux-next, use the tag derived from
localversion* files if exists. In linux-next, the local version is
specified by the localversion-next file.

.scmversion is used by (src)rpm-pkg and deb-pkg to carry KERNELRELEASE.
In fact, deb-pkg does not rely on it any more because the generated

The previous commit fixed up all shell scripts to not include
include/config/auto.conf.
Now that include/config/auto.conf is only included by Makefiles,
we can change it into a more Make-friendly form.
Previously, Kconfig output string values enclosed with double-quotes
(both in the .config and include/config/auto.conf):
CONFIG_X="foo bar"
Unlike shell, Make handles double-quotes (and single-quotes as well)
verbatim. We must rip them off when used.
There are some patterns:
[1] $(patsubst "%",%,$(CONFIG_X))
[2] $(CONFIG_X:"%"=%)
[3] $(subst ",,$(CONFIG_X))
[4] $(shell echo $(CONFIG_X))
These are not only ugly, but also fragile.
[1] and [2] do not work if the value contains spaces, like
CONFIG_X=" foo bar "
[3] does not work correctly if the value contains double-quotes like
CONFIG_X="foo\"bar"
[4] seems to work better, but has a cost of forking a process.
Anyway, quoted strings were always PITA for our Makefiles.
This commit changes Kconfig to stop quoting in include/config/auto.conf.

Richard Weinberger pointed out the risk of sourcing the kernel config
from shell scripts [1], and proposed some patches [2], [3]. It is a good
point, but it took a long time because I was wondering how to fix this.
This commit goes with simple grep approach because there are only a few
scripts including the kernel configuration.
scripts/link_vmlinux.sh has references to a bunch of CONFIG options,
all of which are boolean. I added is_enabled() helper as
scripts/package/{mkdebian,builddeb} do.
scripts/gen_autoksyms.sh uses 'eval', stating "to expand the whitelist
path". I removed it since it is the issue we are trying to fix.
I was a bit worried about the cost of invoking the grep command over
again. I extracted the grep parts from it, and measured the cost. It
was approximately 0.03 sec, which I hope is acceptable.

When building for an embedded target using Yocto, we're sometimes
observing that the version string that gets built into vmlinux (and
thus what uname -a reports) differs from the path under /lib/modules/
where modules get installed in the rootfs, but only in the length of
the -gabc123def suffix. Hence modprobe always fails.
The problem is that Yocto has the concept of "sstate" (shared state),
which allows different developers/buildbots/etc. to share build
artifacts, based on a hash of all the metadata that went into building
that artifact - and that metadata includes all dependencies (e.g. the
compiler used etc.). That normally works quite well; usually a clean
build (without using any sstate cache) done by one developer ends up
being binary identical to a build done on another host. However, one
thing that can cause two developers to end up with different builds
[and thus make one's vmlinux package incompatible with the other's
kernel-dev package], which is not captured by the metadata hashing, is
this `git describe`: The output of that can be affected by
(1) git version: before 2.11 git defaulted to a minimum of 7, since
2.11 (git.git commit e6c587) the default is dynamic based on the
number of objects in the repo
(2) hence even if both run the same git version, the output can differ
based on how many remotes are being tracked (or just lots of local
development branches or plain old garbage)
(3) and of course somebody could have a core.abbrev config setting in
~/.gitconfig
So in order to avoid `uname -a` output relying on such random details
of the build environment which are rather hard to ensure are
consistent between developers and buildbots, make sure the abbreviated
sha1 always consists of exactly 12 hex characters. That is consistent
with the current rule for -stable patches, and is almost always enough
to identify the head commit unambigously - in the few cases where it
does not, the v5.4.3-00021- prefix would certainly nail it down.

Geert Uytterhoeven reports a strange side-effect of commit 858805b336
("kbuild: add $(BASH) to run scripts with bash-extension"), which
inserts the contents of a localversion file in the build directory twice.
[Steps to Reproduce]
$ echo bar > localversion
$ mkdir build
$ cd build/
$ echo foo > localversion
$ make -s -f ../Makefile defconfig include/config/kernel.release
$ cat include/config/kernel.release
5.4.0-rc1foofoobar
This comes down to the behavior change of local variables.
The 'man sh' on my Ubuntu machine, where sh is an alias to dash,
explains as follows:
When a variable is made local, it inherits the initial value and
exported and readonly flags from the variable with the same name
in the surrounding scope, if there is one. Otherwise, the variable
is initially unset.
[Test Code]
foo ()
{
local res
echo "res: $res"
}
res=1
foo
[Result]
$ sh test.sh
res: 1
$ bash test.sh
res:
So, scripts/setlocalversion correctly works only for bash in spite of
its hashbang being #!/bin/sh. Nobody had noticed it before because
CONFIG_SHELL was previously set to bash almost all the time.
Now that CONFIG_SHELL is set to sh, we must write portable and correct
code. I gave the Fixes tag to the commit that uncovered the issue.
Clear the variable 'res' in collect_files() to make it work for sh
(and it also works on distributions where sh is an alias to bash).

git-diff-index does not refresh the index for you, so using it for a
"-dirty" check can give misleading results. Commit 6147b1cf19
("scripts/setlocalversion: git: Make -dirty check more robust") tried to
fix this by switching to git-status, but it overlooked the fact that
git-status also writes to the .git directory of the source tree, which
is definitely not kosher for an out-of-tree (O=) build. That is getting
reverted.
Fortunately, git-status now supports avoiding writing to the index via
the --no-optional-locks flag, as of git 2.14. It still calculates an
up-to-date index, but it avoids writing it out to the .git directory.
So, let's retry the solution from commit 6147b1cf19 using this new
flag first, and if it fails, we assume this is an older version of git
and just use the old git-diff-index method.
It's hairy to get the 'grep -vq' (inverted matching) correct by stashing
the output of git-status (you have to be careful about the difference
betwen "empty stdin" and "blank line on stdin"), so just pipe the output
directly to grep and use a regex that's good enough for both the
git-status and git-diff-index version.

This reverts commit 6147b1cf19.
The reverted patch results in attempted write access to the source

Output from "strace git status -uno --porcelain":

open("/tmp/linux-test/.git/index.lock", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL|O_CLOEXEC, 0666) =
-1 EROFS (Read-only file system)
While git appears to be able to handle this situation, a monitored
build environment (such as the one used for Chrome OS kernel builds)
may detect it and bail out with an access violation error. On top of
that, the attempted write access suggests that git _will_ write to the
file even if a build output directory is specified. Users may have the
reasonable expectation that the source repository remains untouched in
that situation.

$(git diff-index) relies on the index being refreshed. This refreshing
of the index used to happen, but was removed in cdf2bc632e
("scripts/setlocalversion on write-protected source tree", 2013-06-14)
due to issues with a read-only filesystem.
If the index is not refreshed, one runs into problems. E.g. as
described in [0], git stores the uid in its index, so even if just the
uid has changed (or git is tricked into thinking so), then we will
think the tree is dirty. So as in [1], if you package linux-git with a
system that uses fakeroot(1), you get a "-dirty" version. Unless you
manually $(git update-index --refresh) themselves.
The simplest solution seems to be $(git status --porcelain), with an
additional flag saying "ignore untracked files". It seems clearer
about what it does, and avoids issues regarding cached indexes and
writable filesystems, but still has stable output for scripting.

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.

I just stumbled across another[0] issue when scripts/setlocalversion
operates on a write-protected source tree. Back then[0] the source tree
was on an read-only NFS share, so "test -w" was introduced before "git
update-index" was run.
This time, the source tree is on read/write NFS share, but the permissions
are world-readable and only a specific user (or root) can write.
Thus, "test -w ." returns "0" and then runs "git update-index",
producing the following message (on a dirty tree):
fatal: Unable to create '/usr/local/src/linux-git/.git/index.lock': Permission denied
While it says "fatal", compilation continues just fine.
However, I don't think a kernel compilation should alter the source
tree (or the .git directory) in any way and I don't see how removing
"git update-index" could do any harm. The Mercurial and SVN routines in
scripts/setlocalversion don't have any tree-modifying commands, AFAICS.
So, maybe the patch below would be acceptable.

returns nothing because for instance, in French the text 'Last Changed Rev'
is replaced by 'Révision de la dernière modification'

In some circumstances (eg when running a build in an emacs shell
buffer), I get a spew of messages like
grep: writing output: Broken pipe
from setlocalversion, because the "read" subshell apparently exits as
soon as it reads one line and gives EPIPE to grep. It's not clear to
me why this way of writing the check was used instead of just using
grep -q to suppress output, but unless there is some deep reason I
don't know, this way looks cleaner to me anyway, and gets rid of the
ugly message spew.
(I double checked at http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009604499/utilities/grep.html
and "grep -q" is specified in POSIX / SuS, so hopefully even people
cross-compiling the kernel on some bizarre host OS can't complain
about this change)

Fix this by checking if the kernel source tree is the root of the git or
hg repository. No fix for svn: If the kernel source is not tracked in
the svn repository, it works as expected, otherwise determining the
'repository root' is not really a defined task.

The 'source' builtin is a bash alias to the '.' (dot) builtin. While the
former is supported only by bash, the latter is specified in POSIX and
works fine with all POSIX-compliant shells I am aware of.
The '$_' special parameter is specific to bash. It is partially
supported in dash too but it always evaluates to the current script path
(which causes the script to enter a loop recursively re-executing
itself). This is why I have replaced the two occurences of '$_' with the
explicit parameter.
The 'local' builtin is another example of bash-specific code. Although
it is supported by all POSIX-compliant shells I am aware of, it is not
part of POSIX specification and thus the code should not rely on it
assigning a specific value to the local variable. Moreover, the 'posh'
shell has a limited version of 'local' builtin not supporting direct
variable assignments. Thus, I have broken one of the 'local'
declarations down into a (non-POSIX) 'local' declaration and a plain
(POSIX-compliant) variable assignment.

Now that we run scripts/setlocalversion during every build, it makes
sense to move all the localversion logic there. This cleans up the
toplevel Makefile and also makes sure that the script is called only
once in 'make prepare' (previously, it would be called every time due to
a variable expansion in an ifneq statement). No user-visible change is
intended, unless one runs the setlocalversion script directly.

When using trees like wireless-testing, which have untagged tags,
scripts/setlocalversion does not display any git indication for
localversion.
This patch fixes it: If git is available, but no usable tag is found,
it uses -g${head}. It skips the detection of unanottated tags via
git name-rev.

setlocalversion used to use an abbreviated git commit sha1 to generate the
tag. This was changed in commit d882421f4e
"kbuild: change CONFIG_LOCALVERSION_AUTO to use a git-describe-ish format"
to use git describe to come up with a tag. Which is nice, but git describe
sometimes can't describe the revision.
Commit 56b2f0706d ("setlocalversion: do not
describe if there is nothing to describe") addressed this, but there is still
no tag generated.
So, generate a plain abbreviated sha1 tag like setlocalversion used to when
git describe comes up short.

make-kpkg modifies scripts/package/Makefile and deletes
scripts/package/builddeb as part of its build process. Ignore these
changes so the tree isn't marked as -dirty, when it is just an
artifact of make-kpkg. (make-kpkg clean restores the files to their
original state, and these helper scripts won't affect the final
compiled kernel in any way.)

If git's index file is out of date, and some files have been touched
such that their timestamp doesn't what is in the index, "git
diff-index HEAD" may show that a particular file is dirty, when in
fact it really isn't. Running "git update-index" will update the
index to avoid these false positives.
