Re: [U-Boot] License Problems for standalone application at u-boot

Dear Peter,

in message 1250220295.7144.18.camel@nchen-desktop you wrote:

We have a standalone application, and u-boot will supply jump address and some services to this application. I wonder are there any license problems (GPL or u-boot) for our standalone application at below condition:

1. Some services which we wrote have included some u-boot header file?
2. All the services we wrote by ourselves, and not using any u-boot

source code and header file?

Currently, we are number 1 situation.

Please see the first paragraphs of the COPYING file that comes with the U-Boot sources; this explains the GPL exception for standalone programs.

Please let me know if you have additional questions.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
