[U-Boot] [PATCH 0/2] License cleanup: get serious
As announced a long time ago (and obviously mostly ignored by lots of developers and maintainers) we now take the gloves off and actually implement the license cleanup.
As U-Boot is released under GPL (some parts v2 only, other parts v2 or later) the task is to get rid of all parts of code that are incompatible with the GPL. In this first step I'm focussing on files that have a "All Rights Reserved" entry which is incompatible with the GPL. This step consists of three patches; two of these are posted now, the last one about one week later:
PATCH 1/2 License cleanup: remove unintended "All Rights Reserved" notices
This patch removes unintended "All Rights Reserved" notices from some source files written by myself. That's the harmless part.
[PATCH 2/2] License cleanup: remove all files with "All Rights Reserved" notices.
This patch is strong meat. It removes some 250+ source files with conflicting "All Rights Reserved" notices from the U-Boot source tree.
I am well aware that in the result _many_ boards and features will break.
This is why I will wait some time (about a week) before submitting the last part of the patch. This time should be used by developers and maintainers to fix the conflicts for any files they consider important enough to care.
After that grace period, the remaining conflicting files will be removed. This will probably still break a few things.
After about a week the third patch will be posted, which will remove all boards and features from the U-Boot source tree that are broken because of missing files.
NOTE: This is not a joke. I'm serious about it.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
Some files included my old standerd file header which had a "All Rights Reserved" part. As this has never been my intention, I remove these lines to make the files compatible with GPL v.2 and later.

Actually I was hoping someon in a sane mind of state would step up and actually remove all this SZ_xY crap from the source code. It has been a thorn in my side forever since I noticed it.
Patches welcome (and trivial).

That's an other thread and an other issue. Let us not mix issues. You opened this one, so let us deal with this one first. One step after the other.

I'm sorry, but that's nonsense -- just do "git grep -i 'all rights reserved'" in a kernel source tree to see just how fine "all rights reserved" is in a GPLed project as long as a GPL license is granted too.
In any case I've never touched that file in uboot as far as I know, so any licensing problems are your own creation I think.

Wolfgang, what's you comment on this?

Right. We must have copied this line from the Linux 440SPe PCIe driver which was a starting point for the U-Boot driver version.

Well, the 440SPe PCIe stuff for the Linux kernel I wrote was definitely GPLv2. So you can use that code in any other GPLv2 project as far as I'm concerned.

I am not a lawyer, but I'll ask one. So far my understanding is that "All Rights Reserved" is incompatible with GPL. License checking tools like OSLC support this opinion, but as I said: I'll ask someone who is supposed to know better.

It appears that originally elf.h is BSD-licensed. I see quite a lot of "All rights reserved" in BSD-licensed files in gcc, and glibc (though it is LGPL'ed).
There's a lot of "all right reserved" in Linux' GPL'ed code.
You addressed to the lawyer on this question? Is there any FSF advice about it? Or you're doing it just to be on a safe side?
Because my google-foo says that "all right reserved" is a no-op nowadays, but Google is surely not a lawyer.
Thanks,

Indeed. But then, Linux is a much more complex project, and I don't remember that this issue has been thoroughly addressed there yet.

I guess I should ask again.
Because my google-foo says that "all right reserved" is a no-op nowadays, but Google is surely not a lawyer.
My current understanding is that "all right reserved" is incompatible with GPL (when releasing something under GPL you cannot at the same time reserve _all_ rights), and also license checking tools like OSLC handle it this way.
I'll ask again, just to be sure.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk

the glibc code is LGPL-2 or later, so if LGPL-3 can be imported into GPL-3, then it isnt an issue as the latest glibc has no "all rights reserved" in it. -mike

There is only one part which is taken from Xilinx files, there was there their license. Currently Xilinx use GPL license for their files and on the based my experiences with them will not be problem to change a license in this driver. Steve: Can you please confirm me that I can change license to GPL compatible one? Then I sent a patch which fixed it.
Wolfgang: It is driver in net tree. Is it going through you or Ben?
The rest of xilinx files are related to ppc405/ppc440 and they don't have any connection with Microblaze.
Thanks, Michal
