ARM: mvebu: armada-*: Relicense the device tree under GPLv2+/X11

The current GPL only licensing on the device tree makes it very impractical for other software components licensed under another license.

In order to make it easier for them to reuse our device trees, relicense our device trees under a GPL/X11 dual-license.

Hi Jason,

I am also a bit surprised to be the only one :)

As I have no interest in a flame war either, I am not gonna elaborate on this. But in a few words, I don't think that allowing a permissive licence alternative is good for software sharing (which is important to me).

Hi Jason,

I am also a bit surprised to be the only one :)

As I have no interest in a flame war either, I am not gonna elaborate on this. But in a few words, I don't think that allowing a permissive licence alternative is good for software sharing (which is important to me).

Ok, fair enough. I just needed to know if the NAK was against the GPLv2+ part or the X11 part. Clearly, it's the X11 part.

So let's look at what we have (trying to stick to facts):

- alienating contributors in bad (yes, this is first)
- sometimes the community has to do something a minority disagrees with, but it should be avoided, if at all possible.
- devicetree is so useful, other projects are adopting it
- if our binding docs are good, rewriting dts{i} isn't hard.
- rewriting dts{i} can lead to fragmentation
- maintaining two devicetree trees would be a pia (X11, GPLonly)
- reverting/rewriting GPLonly commits is possible, but see first bullet.
- Simon may not be the only contributor who disagrees with X11.
- of the known consumers of dts{i}, *BSD is the only one with licensing issues.

So our goal is to avoid fragmentation by allowing *BSD to use our dts{i} files as is. Our secondary goal is to avoid a maintenance headache.

Options:

- Ask Simon to find an OSI-compatible license to replace X11 that:
- *BSD can use
- meets the intent of himself and other like-minded authors
- Leave licensing as is, but make a statement that *using* the dts doesn't create a derivative work under the GPL (similar to Linus' statement re the Linux kernel, Wolfgang and U-Boot, etc).
- Screw it, plow forward, and revert/rewrite GPLonly commits
- Ignore the whole issue and hope it goes away.

Personally, I'm in favor of the second one, and think it has the highest chance of success. After all, ARM-based *BSD is launched from a GPL bootloader in most cases, right (U-Boot, barebox)? Thoughts?

Presently I would like to have the answer about the relicesing from all the author in CC. Then depending the result we will see where we should go.

Agreed. We should keep in mind that once we have heard from everybody (big if), that is still only representative of armada and maybe mvebu ecosystem. :( I'm starting to lean even more towards #2...

Except I know that there are people out there who want to ship the source files with their project.

The DT source files are integrated into the mainline Linux kernel, and not everyone wants to download the Linux kernel source just to be able to build the DT files for their non-Linux project.

Hi Jason,

I am also a bit surprised to be the only one

As I have no interest in a flame war either, I am not gonna elaborate on this. But in a few words, I don't think that allowing a permissive licence alternative is good for software sharing (which is important to me).

Ok, fair enough. I just needed to know if the NAK was against the GPLv2+ part or the X11 part. Clearly, it's the X11 part.

So let's look at what we have (trying to stick to facts):

- alienating contributors in bad (yes, this is first)
- sometimes the community has to do something a minority disagrees with, but it should be avoided, if at all possible.
- devicetree is so useful, other projects are adopting it
- if our binding docs are good, rewriting dts{i} isn't hard.
- rewriting dts{i} can lead to fragmentation
- maintaining two devicetree trees would be a pia (X11, GPLonly)
- reverting/rewriting GPLonly commits is possible, but see first bullet.
- Simon may not be the only contributor who disagrees with X11.
- of the known consumers of dts{i}, *BSD is the only one with licensing issues.

So our goal is to avoid fragmentation by allowing *BSD to use our dts{i} files as is. Our secondary goal is to avoid a maintenance headache.

Options:

Quoted 9 lines

- Ask Simon to find an OSI-compatible license to replace X11 that:
- *BSD can use
- meets the intent of himself and other like-minded authors
- Leave licensing as is, but make a statement that *using* the dts doesn't create a derivative work under the GPL (similar to Linus' statement re the Linux kernel, Wolfgang and U-Boot, etc).
- Screw it, plow forward, and revert/rewrite GPLonly commits
- Ignore the whole issue and hope it goes away.

Thanks for sum-up the situation and to offer the different choice we have.

Personally, I'm in favor of the second one, and think it has the highest chance of success. After all, ARM-based *BSD is launched from a GPL bootloader in most cases, right (U-Boot, barebox)? Thoughts?

Presently I would like to have the answer about the relicesing from all the author in CC. Then depending the result we will see where we should go.

Agreed. We should keep in mind that once we have heard from everybody (big if), that is still only representative of armada and maybe mvebu
ecosystem. I'm starting to lean even more towards #2...

Yes, it's rather sad that Simon has said no to this - because the whole reason for this is to promote sharing these files with other projects and allowing them to re-use this data.

I don't think that's on - we really don't want to ask those who have already transitioned to include X11 to re-think their licensing for another time.

What if another OS (such as BSD) needs to add some additional hardware description to the DT files (because, for example, we've modelled something on the Linux implementation, rather than describing the hardware.)

Another OS may not be happy to contribute to something which is GPLv2 only, in which case you'll get division of the DT.

The question is whether you're likely to see 370-xp adopted by other OS - if yes, then rewriting Simon's commits are the way to go, if not, then staying as-is is probably best.

However, there's one issue here which can't be overlooked - what if some of Simon's work has been copied by someone else into another DT file, which then gets re-licensed with X11... This is going to need careful auditing - and careful auditing for ever going forward.

It would just be a whole lot easier if Simon did give his permission, but if he really is unwilling to allow his efforts to be re-used else- where, then we will have to do that work.

I'll admit I'm stuck here. I disagree with Simon, but I also think we need to respect his desire as author of the files.

After some thoughts I changed my mind about this. I can't see no point in forcing people to rewrite a commit for a single line which is even not covered by my copyright...

Hello,

You've been Cc'd on a relicensing patch, because at some point you contributed a patch to an mvebu device tree.

We're currently moving toward a GPL/X11 dual-license, instead of a GPL license like what was done when you submitted your patches.

Gregory,

Good to see this finally being addressed. One not-so-minor issue below.

Quoted 7 lines · Gregory CLEMENT

Hello,

You've been Cc'd on a relicensing patch, because at some point you contributed a patch to an mvebu device tree.

We're currently moving toward a GPL/X11 dual-license, instead of a GPL license like what was done when you submitted your patches.

I like the X11 license, much more liberal than the BSD I had been thinking of.

What were the reasons for changing GPLv2 -> GPLv2+? Why not preserve the author's intent re GPL and do:

	GPLv2  -> GPLv2/X11
	GPLv2+ -> GPLv2+/X11

Please note: I have no interest is a flame war re GPLv2/GPLv3. No ones minds are going to be changed at this point. I'm simply looking to stay closer to the author's intentions and extend the usefulness of the DT tree.

thx,

Jason.

Please note: I have no interest is a flame war re GPLv2/GPLv3. No ones minds are going to be changed at this point. I'm simply looking to stay closer to the author's intentions and extend the usefulness of the DT tree.

You've been Cc'd on a relicensing patch, because at some point you contributed a patch to an mvebu device tree.

We're currently moving toward a GPL/X11 dual-license, instead of a GPL license like what was done when you submitted your patches.

This is mostly so that other free software project licensed under a BSD-like license, such as the BSD systems, can actually use our DT, instead of having to rewrite them on their own.

Such license changes require the agreement of all the contributors, so it would be great, if you agree with the new licensing terms of course, that you reply to the patch by giving your acked-by.
