[RFC PATCH v4 0/1] Re-license MTK NAND driver

[RFC PATCH v4 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 v4:
---------
- Append ACK from Miquel, Boris, RogerCC, Ryder, Rafal.
- Use "git log --follow" to find all contributors and add them all in Cc list.

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 v4 1/1] mtd: rawnand: mtk: Re-license MTK NAND driver as Dual MIT/GPL

[Xiaolei Li]

It is wanted 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.

When there is only one patch, no need to create a cover letter. You can
put the text which is in 0/1 below the three dashes '---'.

Also no need to send a new version while there is nothing changed in
the code. Patchwork automatically collects tags.


Thanks,
Miquèl

Arnd: would you send you Ack, just so we are 100% on a legal side?

For mtk_nand.c we are missing acks from (co-)authors of following commits:
1) Wei:

All are absolutely trivial.

The only /complex/ change is from Arnd. I'm not sure if that is
copyrightable or not.

Re: [RFC PATCH v4 1/1] mtd: rawnand: mtk: Re-license MTK NAND driver as Dual MIT/GPL

[xiaolei li]

Hi Arnd,

You ever sent one patch to improve MTK NAND driver,
commit 8ff0513bdcdd ("mtd: mtk: avoid warning in mtk_ecc_encode")

Now we want to relicense MTK NAND driver as Dual MIT/GPL and wish to get
your ACK.

It will be helpful if you can send your ACK.

Thanks,
Xiaolei

Thank you!

Xiaolei: please resend this patch without RFC in a subject. I believe it
can be applied/pushed now.

https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/linux-mtd/list/?series=&submitter=71599&state=*&q=&archive=&delegate=

The latest one is RFC v4.
