Do not descend to sub-directories when unneeded.

I used subdir-$(CONFIG_...) for hidraw, seccomp, and vfs because
they only contain host programs.

While we are here, let's add SPDX License tag, and sort the directories
alphabetically.

Commit f1b5618e013a ("vfs: Add a sample program for the new mount API")
added sample programs that get built during the kernel build, but then
cause 'git status' to worry about whether the resulting binaries should
be managed by git.

Tell git not to worry, and to ignore the sample binaries.

Pull rdma updates from Jason Gunthorpe:
 "This has been a smaller cycle than normal. One new driver was
  accepted, which is unusual, and at least one more driver remains in
  review on the list.

  Summary:

   - Driver fixes for hns, hfi1, nes, rxe, i40iw, mlx5, cxgb4,
     vmw_pvrdma

   - Many patches from MatthewW converting radix tree and IDR users to
     use xarray

   - Introduction of tracepoints to the MAD layer

   - Build large SGLs at the start for DMA mapping and get the driver to
     split them

   - Generally clean SGL handling code throughout the subsystem

   - Support for restricting RDMA devices to net namespaces for
     containers

   - Progress to remove object allocation boilerplate code from drivers

   - Change in how the mlx5 driver shows representor ports linked to VFs

   - mlx5 uapi feature to access the on chip SW ICM memory

   - Add a new driver for 'EFA'. This is HW that supports user space
     packet processing through QPs in Amazon's cloud"

  filesystems to new methods is fortunately independent from everything
  else, so e.g. NFS series can go through NFS tree, etc.

  As those conversions get done, we'll be finally able to get rid of a
  bunch of duplication in fs/super.c introduced in the beginning of the
  entire thing. I expect that to be finished in the next window..."

Pull driver core/kobject updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the "big" set of driver core patches for 5.2-rc1

  There are a number of ACPI patches in here as well, as Rafael said
  they should go through this tree due to the driver core changes they
  required. They have all been acked by the ACPI developers.

  There are also a number of small subsystem-specific changes in here,
  due to some changes to the kobject core code. Those too have all been
  acked by the various subsystem maintainers.

  As for content, it's pretty boring outside of the ACPI changes:
   - spdx cleanups
   - kobject documentation updates
   - default attribute groups for kobjects
   - other minor kobject/driver core fixes

  All have been in linux-next for a while with no reported issues"

<title>samples: show race-free pidfd metadata access</title>
<updated>2019-05-07T12:31:04+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=43c6afee48d4d866d5eb984d3a5dbbc7d9b4e7bf'/>
<id>43c6afee48d4d866d5eb984d3a5dbbc7d9b4e7bf</id>
<content type='text'>
This is a sample program showing userspace how to get race-free access
to process metadata from a pidfd.  It is rather easy to do and userspace
can actually simply reuse code that currently parses a process's status
file in procfs.
The program can easily be extended into a generic helper suitable for
inclusion in a libc to make it even easier for userspace to gain metadata
access.

Since this came up in a discussion because this API is going to be used
in various service managers: A lot of programs will have a whitelist
seccomp filter that returns &lt;some-errno&gt; for all new syscalls.  This
means that programs might get confused if CLONE_PIDFD works but the
later pidfd_send_signal() syscall doesn't.  Hence, here's a ahead of
time check that pidfd_send_signal() is supported:

bool pidfd_send_signal_supported()
{
        int procfd = open("/proc/self", O_DIRECTORY | O_RDONLY | O_CLOEXEC);
        if (procfd &lt; 0)
                return false;

        /*
         * A process is always allowed to signal itself so
         * pidfd_send_signal() should never fail this test. If it does
         * it must mean it is not available, blocked by an LSM, seccomp,
         * or other.
         */
        return pidfd_send_signal(procfd, 0, NULL, 0) == 0;
}
