If you only want your code being used in Linux, then stick with "GPL-2.0". If you want your code to be able to be copied into other GPLv3 licensed code bodies (like Hurd and others), then license it as "GPL-2.0-or-later". Your call. > > > > And no copyright information?

This is just a piece of meaningless noise. You already own the copyright by virtue of creating the code (you can't give it away), so might as well put your mark on it to make it more noticable. But it's not required, if you don't want to, no one can force you, again, your call. > > > > > --- a/include/uapi/linux/serial_core.h > > > > > +++ b/include/uapi/linux/serial_core.h > > > > > @@ -248,4 +248,7 @@ > > > > > /* Espressif ESP32 UART */ > > > > > #define PORT_ESP32UART 124 > > > > > > > > > > +/* Espressif ESP32 ACM */ > > > > > +#define PORT_ESP32ACM 125 > > > > > > > > Why are these defines needed?

I've tested that it works. Hah, I like that hack. But why not just use PORT_UNKNOWN? thanks, greg k-h
