[PATCH 1/4] ARM: dts: vf610: relicense vf???.dtsi under GPLv2/X11

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




GPLv2-only devicetrees make reuse difficult for software components
licensed under a different license.

The consensus is that a GPL/X11 dual-license should allow all necessary
uses, so relicense the vfxxx.dtsi, vf500.dtsi and vf610.dtsi files to
this combination.

CCs were acquired using (updated some email addresses):
git shortlog -sne --no-merges arch/arm/boot/dts/vf???.dtsi
