Manfred! As you might know we are working on cleaning up the licensing mess in the kernel and convert it to SPDX license identifiers as the only source of license information. Archaeology found unspecific GPL license references, which have been authored by you. 1) this file is released under the gpl ipc/mqueue.c https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git/commit/?id=be94d44e818a5 Can you please either send cleanup patches for the affected files or indicate which GPLv2 variant you had in mind and I run it through my cleanup machinery. Thanks, Thomas
