It is copyrighted by Wolfgang Denk and -many others who contributed code (see the actual source code and the -git commit messages for details). You can redistribute U-Boot and/or -modify it under the terms of version 2 of the GNU General Public -License as published by the Free Software Foundation. Most of it can -also be distributed, at your option, under any later version of the -GNU General Public License -- see individual files for exceptions. - - NOTE! This license does *not* cover the so-called "standalone" -applications that use U-Boot services by means of the jump table -provided by U-Boot exactly for this purpose - this is merely -considered normal use of U-Boot, and does *not* fall under the -heading of "derived work" -- see file Licenses/Exceptions for -details. - - Also note that the GPL and the other licenses are copyrighted by -the Free Software Foundation and other organizations, but the -instance of code that they refer to (the U-Boot source code) is -copyrighted by me and others who actually wrote it. --- Wolfgang Denk - - -Like many other projects, U-Boot has a tradition of including big -blocks of License headers in all files. This not only blows up the -source code with mostly redundant information, but also makes it very -difficult to generate License Clearing Reports. An additional problem -is that even the same licenses are referred to by a number of -slightly varying text blocks (full, abbreviated, different -indentation, line wrapping and/or white space, with obsolete address -information, ...) which makes automatic processing a nightmare. - -To make this easier, such license headers in the source files will be -replaced with a single line reference to Unique License Identifiers -as defined by the Linux Foundation's SPDX project [1]. - -If a "SPDX-License-Identifier:" line references more than one Unique -License Identifier, then this means that the respective file can be -used under the terms of either of these licenses, i. e. with - - SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+ OR BSD-3-Clause - -you can choose between GPL-2.0+ and BSD-3-Clause licensing. - -We use the SPDX Unique License Identifiers here; these are available -at [2]. - -License identifier syntax -------------------------- - -1. Placement: - - The SPDX license identifier in U-Boot files shall be added at the first - possible line in a file which can contain a comment. For the majority - or files this is the first line, except for scripts which require the - '#!PATH_TO_INTERPRETER' in the first line. For those scripts the SPDX - identifier goes into the second line. - -| - -2. Style: - - The SPDX license identifier is added in form of a comment. The comment - style depends on the file type:: - - C source: // SPDX-License-Identifier: <SPDX License Expression> - C header: /* SPDX-License-Identifier: <SPDX License Expression> */ - ASM: /* SPDX-License-Identifier: <SPDX License Expression> */ - scripts: # SPDX-License-Identifier: <SPDX License Expression> - .rst: .. SPDX-License-Identifier: <SPDX License Expression> - .dts{i}: // SPDX-License-Identifier: <SPDX License Expression> - - If a specific tool cannot handle the standard comment style, then the - appropriate comment mechanism which the tool accepts shall be used. This - is the reason for having the "/\* \*/" style comment in C header - files. There was build breakage observed with generated .lds files where - 'ld' failed to parse the C++ comment. This has been fixed by now, but - there are still older assembler tools which cannot handle C++ style - comments. - -| - -3. Syntax: - - A <SPDX License Expression> is either an SPDX short form license - identifier found on the SPDX License List, or the combination of two - SPDX short form license identifiers separated by "WITH" when a license - exception applies. When multiple licenses apply, an expression consists - of keywords "AND", "OR" separating sub-expressions and surrounded by - "(", ")" . - - License identifiers for licenses like [L]GPL with the 'or later' option - are constructed by using a "+" for indicating the 'or later' option.:: - - // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+ - // SPDX-License-Identifier: LGPL-2.1+ - - WITH should be used when there is a modifier to a license needed. - For example, the linux kernel UAPI files use the expression:: - - // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note - // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note - - Other examples using WITH exceptions found in the linux kernel are:: - - // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 WITH mif-exception - // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+ WITH GCC-exception-2.0 - - Exceptions can only be used with particular License identifiers. The - valid License identifiers are listed in the tags of the exception text - file. - - OR should be used if the file is dual licensed and only one license is - to be selected. For example, some dtsi files are available under dual - licenses:: - - // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 OR BSD-3-Clause - - Examples from U-Boot for license expressions in dual licensed files:: - - // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 OR MIT - // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0+ OR BSD-3-Clause - - AND should be used if the file has multiple licenses whose terms all - apply to use the file. For example, if code is inherited from another - project and permission has been given to put it in U-Boot, but the - original license terms need to remain in effect:: - - // SPDX-License-Identifier: (GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT - - Another other example where both sets of license terms need to be - adhered to is:: - - // SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-1.0+ AND LGPL-2.1+ - -[1] http://spdx.org/ -[2] http://spdx.org/licenses/ - -Full name SPDX Identifier OSI Approved File name URI -======================================================================================================================================= -GNU General Public License v2.0 only GPL-2.0 Y gpl-2.0.txt http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.txt -GNU General Public License v2.0 or later GPL-2.0+ Y gpl-2.0.txt http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.txt -GNU Library General Public License v2 or later LGPL-2.0+ Y lgpl-2.0.txt http://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/lgpl-2.0.txt -GNU Lesser General Public License v2.1 or later LGPL-2.1+ Y lgpl-2.1.txt http://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/lgpl-2.1.txt -eCos license version 2.0 eCos-2.0 eCos-2.0.txt http://www.gnu.org/licenses/ecos-license.html -BSD 2-Clause License BSD-2-Clause Y bsd-2-clause.txt http://spdx.org/licenses/BSD-2-Clause -BSD 3-clause "New" or "Revised" License BSD-3-Clause Y bsd-3-clause.txt http://spdx.org/licenses/BSD-3-Clause#licenseText -IBM PIBS (PowerPC Initialization and IBM-pibs ibm-pibs.txt - Boot Software) license -ISC License ISC Y isc.txt https://spdx.org/licenses/ISC -SIL OPEN FONT LICENSE (OFL-1.1) OFL-1.1 Y OFL.txt https://spdx.org/licenses/OFL-1.1.html -X11 License X11 x11.txt https://spdx.org/licenses/X11.html |
