Add a `--spdx` option to the freestanding script to prefix
files with a line like (for `.c` files):
// SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+ OR BSD-3-Clause
or (for `.h` and `.S` files):
/* SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+ OR BSD-3-Clause */
Given the style of the line to be used depends on the extension,
a simple `sed` insert command would not work.
It also skips the file if an existing SPDX line is there,
as well as raising an error if an unexpected SPDX line appears
anywhere else in the file, as well as for unexpected
file extensions.
I double-checked that all currently generated files appear
to be license as expected with:
grep -LRF 'This source code is licensed under both the BSD-style license (found in the' linux/lib/zstd
grep -LRF 'LICENSE file in the root directory of this source tree) and the GPLv2 (found' linux/lib/zstd
but somebody knowledgable on the licensing of the project should
double-check this is the intended case.

Zstd in the Linux Kernel
This directory contains the scripts needed to transform upstream zstd into the version imported into the kernel. All the transforms are automated and tested by our continuous integration.
Upgrading Zstd in the Linux Kernel
cdinto this directory.- Run
make libzstdand read the output. Make sure that all the diffs printed and changes made by the script are correct. - Run
make testand ensure that it passes. - Import zstd into the Linux Kernel
make import LINUX=/path/to/linux/repo - Inspect the diff for sanity.
- Check the Linux Kernel history for zstd. If any patches were made to the kernel version of zstd, but not to upstream zstd, then port them upstream if necessary.
- Test the diff. Benchmark if necessary. Make sure to test multiple architectures: At least x86, i386, and arm.
- Submit the patch to the LKML.
