2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with a licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman1-0/+1
Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the license under which the file is supposed to be. This makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license. Update these files with an SPDX license identifier. The identifier was chosen based on the license information in the file. GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall exception: NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work". This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL code, without confusing license compliance tools. Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier. The format is: ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE) SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. The update does not remove existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will happen in a separate step. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the methodology of how this patch was researched.

2017-03-14mpls: allow TTL propagation from IP packets to be configuredRobert Shearman1-0/+2
Allow TTL propagation from IP packets to MPLS packets to be configured. Add a new optional LWT attribute, MPLS_IPTUNNEL_TTL, which allows the TTL to be set in the resulting MPLS packet, with the value of 0 having the semantics of enabling propagation of the TTL from the IP header (i.e. non-zero values disable propagation). Also allow the configuration to be overridden globally by reusing the same sysctl to control whether the TTL is propagated from IP packets into the MPLS header. If the per-LWT attribute is set then it overrides the global configuration. If the TTL isn't propagated then a default TTL value is used which can be configured via a new sysctl, "net.mpls.default_ttl". This is kept separate from the configuration of whether IP TTL propagation is enabled as it can be used in the future when non-IP payloads are supported (i.e. where there is no payload TTL that can be propagated).
