From d75fe9cb1dd062684c9fb8a4581738170365dc06 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Luca Boccassi Date: Thu, 23 Sep 2021 01:05:40 +0100 Subject: samples/bpf: Relicense bpf_insn.h as GPL-2.0-only OR BSD-2-Clause MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit libbpf and bpftool have been dual-licensed to facilitate inclusion in software that is not compatible with GPL2-only (ie: Apache2), but the samples are still GPL2-only. Given these files are samples, they get naturally copied around. For example, it is the case for samples/bpf/bpf_insn.h which was copied into the systemd tree: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/main/src/shared/linux/bpf_insn.h Some more context on systemd's needs specifically: Most of systemd is (L)GPL2-or-later, which means there is no perceived incompatibility with Apache2 software and can thus be linked with OpenSSL 3.0. But given this GPL2-only header is included this is currently not possible. Dual-licensing this header solves this problem for us as we are scoping a move to OpenSSL 3.0, see: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/systemd-devel/2021-September/046882.html Dual-license this header as GPL-2.0-only OR BSD-2-Clause to follow the same licensing used by libbpf and bpftool: 1bc38b8ff6cc ("libbpf: relicense libbpf as LGPL-2.1 OR BSD-2-Clause") 907b22365115 ("tools: bpftool: dual license all files") Signed-off-by: Luca Boccassi Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann Acked-by: Simon Horman Acked-by: Daniel Mack Acked-by: Josef Bacik Acked-by: Joe Stringer Acked-by: Chenbo Feng Acked-by: Björn Töpel Acked-by: Magnus Karlsson Acked-by: Brendan Jackman Acked-by: Daniel Borkmann Acked-by: Alexei Starovoitov Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20210923000540.47344-1-luca.boccassi@gmail.com --- samples/bpf/bpf_insn.h | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'samples') diff --git a/samples/bpf/bpf_insn.h b/samples/bpf/bpf_insn.h index aee04534483a..29c3bb6ad1cd 100644 --- a/samples/bpf/bpf_insn.h +++ b/samples/bpf/bpf_insn.h @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ -/* SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 */ +/* SPDX-License-Identifier: (GPL-2.0-only OR BSD-2-Clause) */ /* eBPF instruction mini library */ #ifndef __BPF_INSN_H #define __BPF_INSN_H -- cgit v1.2.3
