Subject: [ptxdist] [PATCH v2] libtracefs: fix license and add license files
Date: Fri, 17 Jan 2025 11:41:14 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250117104113.176520-1-rhi@pengutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <Z4oZOc9nDiqLbpcL@pengutronix.de>
While the source includes a GPL-2.0 license text, this license is only
used for the build scripts, and does not make it into the binary. The
Bison-generated parser code is licensed under GPL-3.0-or-later with a
license exception allowing it (in this case) to be released under
a different license. The resulting binary is under LGPL-2.1-or-later (as
mentioned in the original mail thread it uses the old SPDX identifiers).
