[RFC PATCH v3 0/1] Re-license MTK NAND driver

[RFC PATCH v3 0/1] Re-license MTK NAND driver

[Xiaolei Li]

Hello,

Currently, MTK NAND driver is licensed as GPL. And we would like to
modify and publish it in bootloader with MIT license. So, here we send
this RFC patch to solicit ACKs from MTK NAND driver authors and
contributors whether we can re-license MTK NAND driver as dual MIT/GPL.

Thanks and looking forward to your reply,
Xiaolei

Patch v3:
---------
- Add license text replacement description in commit log.

Patch v2:
---------
- Add Ryder, Rafal, Wen in CC list.
- Introduce why we want to re-license MTK NAND driver.

[RFC PATCH v3 1/1] mtd: rawnand: mtk: Re-license MTK NAND driver as Dual MIT/GPL

[Xiaolei Li]

It is allowed to use MTK NAND driver with GPL-2.0 or MIT license.
But now it is only licensed as GPL-2.0.
So re-license it as dual MIT/GPL and replace license text with
SPDX tag.

What do you mean by "It is allowed"? According to the license it's 
rather not.

Did you mean something like "It it wanted"?

My development involvement was trivial/minimal, so I'm OK if that's what 
most
developers want.

Thanks for your ACK and your suggestion. "It is wanted" sounds more
properly.

May I ask if it is enough to accept this change? Or should I wait for

I can't imagine re-licensing someone's work without a permission.

The best you can do is ignoring contributors that submitted changes that
aren't really copyrightable (something like fixing a comment typo, some
auto-generated diff-s).

I used following command to check mtk_nand.c file history:

Ideally you should still get acks from:

1) Miquel
Contributor of 21 changes

2) Boris
Contributor of 33 changes

3) RogerCC
Contributor of 3 changes:
98dea8d71931 ("mtd: nand: mtk: Support MT7622 NAND flash controller.")
b45ee5501ede ("mtd: nand: mtk: Support different MTK NAND flash 
controller IP")
559e58e7ed2d ("mtd: nand: fix chances to create incomplete ECC data when 
writing")

4) Wei
Contributor of 1 change:
07f76443ef81 ("mtd: nand: mediatek: remove redundant dev_err call in 
mtk_nfc_probe()")

5) Peter
Contributor of 1 change:
d4092d76a4a4 ("mtd: nand: Rename nand.h into rawnand.h")

6) Masahiro
Contributor of 1 change:
f0dbe4aa35e7 ("mtd: nand: mediatek: return error code of 
nand_scan_ident/tail() on error")

I guess we could accept your patch without acks from Wei, Peter and 
Masahiro.

You definitely need an approval from Miquel, Boris and RogerCC.

It doesn't seem you took this re-licensing task too seriously.

Please pay more attention to this licensing problem, you can start with 
doing
a similar research for mtk_ecc.c and mtk_ecc.h.

Ideally you should still get acks from:

1) Miquel
Contributor of 21 changes

2) Boris
Contributor of 33 changes

3) RogerCC
Contributor of 3 changes:
98dea8d71931 ("mtd: nand: mtk: Support MT7622 NAND flash controller.")
b45ee5501ede ("mtd: nand: mtk: Support different MTK NAND flash 
controller IP")
559e58e7ed2d ("mtd: nand: fix chances to create incomplete ECC data when 
writing")

4) Wei
Contributor of 1 change:
07f76443ef81 ("mtd: nand: mediatek: remove redundant dev_err call in 
mtk_nfc_probe()")

5) Peter
Contributor of 1 change:
d4092d76a4a4 ("mtd: nand: Rename nand.h into rawnand.h")

6) Masahiro
Contributor of 1 change:
f0dbe4aa35e7 ("mtd: nand: mediatek: return error code of 
nand_scan_ident/tail() on error")

I guess we could accept your patch without acks from Wei, Peter and 
Masahiro.

You definitely need an approval from Miquel, Boris and RogerCC.

It doesn't seem you took this re-licensing task too seriously.

Please pay more attention to this licensing problem, you can start with 
doing
a similar research for mtk_ecc.c and mtk_ecc.h.

I have no intention to offend other's contribution.
That is why I sent this RFC patch to ask for ACKs from contributors.
