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

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.

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.

Well, I'm a bit surprised that this is the first one. :) Care to
explain why so that we can work towards an amenable compromise?

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

to me).
Thanks,
Simon

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?
thx,
Jason.

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

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...
thx,

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.

This is why Ian created the devicetree repository:
http://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=people/ianc/device-tree-rebasing.git;a=tree
Barebox has been using this for several months at least. That removes
the logistical hurdle, at least.
thx,
Jason.

Looking at the commits that Simon did, it covers all the Lacie .dts files,
and one single-line change to armada-370-xp.dtsi.
I think it's definitely best to respect Simon's view on the Lacie files
and not try to undo or rewrite those. With the one-line change, there
are other options:
- Ask Simon to agree to a license change for that file
- Argue that a one-line change cannot be covered under copyright and
change the license anyway.
- Change that line again and modify the driver accordingly

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.)
I'm thinking about things like the sound {} nodes and similar.
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.

Very good point.

Well, the favorite hobby of part-time hackers is running mainline
kernels on random NASs and Wifi Routers. A lot of which have Marvell
SoCs in them... That's how myself and most of the mvebu contributors
got into this.

It looks as though Arnd is already looking at that. So far, it seems
isolated to the Lacie boards.

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.
I'm not a fan of GPLv2+, but I'm willing to compromise if it means wider
adoption of DT. I would hope Simon could come around to the same
conclusion from the other side.
thx,
Jason.

Yes, we do need to respect his desire, otherwise who are we to complain
when someone uses our code in a way that we don't agree with. Fair's
fair. :)

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...

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

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

relicense our device trees under a GPL/X11 dual-license.

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.

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

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.

I thought about it bu I finally chose to switch to GPLv2+ for severals reason:
- as the intent of this relicensing was to allow to use the dts in more project,
switching from GPLv2 to GPLv2+ seemed to me the things to do.
- the allwiners device tree switched to GPLv2+/X11 I followed this for consistency.
- for the same reason I chose to have the same license for all the files.
- for those how are reluctant to the GPLv3, I thought that the fact the files were
also licensed under the X11 license minimized the impact of the GPLv3.
- last reason, I thought it would be easier to automatize this.
Now if one of the author is opposed to this change, I have no problem to keep the GPLv2
on the problematic file(s).
Thanks,
Gregory

Why not simply ISC it? Wouldn't it be better than dual-licensing?

I've only changed a vendor prefix in a compatible entry for each of
arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-370-netgear-rn102.dts,
arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-370-netgear-rn104.dts, and
arch/arm/boot/dts/armada-xp-netgear-rn2120.dts.
Anyway, for those:

Andrew, Thomas, Ezequiel, Arnaud, Greg, Ben, Philipp, Simon and Uwe, thanks
for your acked-by. Many files are now ready to be relicensed.
Jason at the end it seems you didn't ack or nack the patches were you
were CC. You expressed some concerns about the GPLv2+ move but I don't know
if it is something that prevents you to give your acked-by.
Thanks,
Gregory

Oops. :) I figured my S-o-B when applying would be sufficient. That
decision was before we decided on Andrew applying patches this time
around...
For all my dts{i} contributions:
Acked-by: Jason Cooper <jason@lakedaemon.net>
Due to all the merge commits over time and whatnot, it's probably best
to put my Ack on all the patches in this series...
thx,
Jason.

OK no problem. By the way, I take care of collecting all the acked-by and
once it will be done I will either sent the updated patch set with all the
acked-by or maybe just I will create a branch to pull if it is easier to handle.

Ok, that'll be up to Andrew.
Once we have the last few stragglers, and assuming there are no more
NAKs, here's what I'd like to do:
Regrettably, we'll have to revert Simon's dts contributions. I say
'regret' in that I regret having to potentially discourage a valuable
contributor. I *don't* regret him sticking to his guns. :)
As for what to do after that, I think we (the core mvebu folks) should
*not* rewrite the Lacie dts files. That just seems hinky to me.
If there's community interest, someone will crop up who copies one of
the dual licensed dts files and modifies it to boot his/her Lacie board.
When they submit a patch, we'll DCO/SoB double check them and apply the
patch(es).
thx,
Jason.

You missed the email he sent yesterday, finally Simon changed his mind
and gave his acked-by.

Indeed, that was for the oneliner change in the armada-370-xp.dtsi file.
I got a bit ahead of myself, but I'm looking towards kirkwood, orion5x,
dove, which brings up:
18ba7e4fe51d ARM: Kirkwood: add DT support for d2 Network v2
2d4cd2cafaea ARM: Kirkwood: allow to use netxbig DTSI for d2net_v2 DTS
a96cc303e42a ARM: mvebu: update the SATA compatible string for Armada 370/XP
d3dde4df4483 ARM: Kirkwood: update Network Space Mini v2 description
98d4f2acb91a ARM: Kirkwood: DT board setup for CloudBox

OK I understand your concern now. About dove and kirkwood, did you notice that
some files didn't have any license?
Especially none of the dove files have a license.

Yes.

Yes, we'll cross that bridge when we get there. I suspect it then falls
under the over-arching license of the project. Regardless, we'll still
need Acks from all contributors.

Jason.

Hi Jason,
What is the problem with keeping the LaCie DTS files under GPLv2+ only ?

Converting armada-* to dual license is just a small part of the
overarching effort to convert *all* the devicetree files to dual
license. So, eventually, we'll be doing the same with kirkwood, dove
and orion5x dts{i} files. Perhaps even during this merge window.
In the long term, we're attempting to provide one neutral place [1] for
the bootloaders and kernels to pull devicetrees from and contribute
changes back to.
hth,
Jason.

OK, let's see if I understand correctly.
If I don't agree with the GPLv2+/x11 relicensing, then support for
almost all the LaCie boards will be removed from the Linux kernel (maybe
during the next merge window) ? Is that correct ?
Since all the LaCie boards DTS are at least based on my work (except for
the Orion ED Mini v2), I think there is 12 files concerned here. See the
command output: grep -l lacie *.dts | wc -l.
The oldest of this boards have been supported by the Linux kernel since
the 2.6.32 release. Also some of this boards are still widely used...
You know, it is quite a statement you are sending here: The GPLv2+
licences are not good enough to get an ARM-based board supported by
the Linux kernel, while it has always been the case until now. Are all
the maintainers SoC, ARM SoC, ARM and Linux well aligned with that ?
Is there any way we can keep the LaCie DTS files licenced under GPLv2+
_and_ still distributed with the others. Anyone would be free to choose
to use them (or not), in respect of the licence terms.

Definitely not during the next merge window. Eventually the plan is
to remove *all* dts files from the kernel, but we're a long way
away from that.
There is already a mirror of the dts files at
http://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=people/ianc/device-tree-rebasing.git;a=summary
which is hosting files that are meant to be shared with Xen, which is
also under the GPL, and supports a lot of the same hardware that Linux
supports, but also depends on passing the correct (modified) dtb blobs
to the Dom0 kernel.
The current setup works ok for Xen, but occasionally there are requests
for having the files shared more broadly, e.g. with FreeBSD and with boot
loaders that might be non-GPL but are used to boot Linux and that want
to ship with a default dtb for a platform they run on.

What I suspect will happen is that we end up with multiple repositories
for dts files, e.g. one that contains all files that are GPL-compatible
and another one that contains the subset that is licensed under more
permissive licenses such as the X11 or some BSD license. I don't see
a reason for Linux to stop supporting the former, but it would be nice
to have a larger shared subset.

Jason said:

This words changed my understanding. Then, you confirm I don't have to

I think it would be indeed a good idea to have a repository with some
licence separations.
Thanks for the clarifications.

This words changed my understanding. Then, you confirm I don't have to

I think it would be indeed a good idea to have a repository with some
licence separations.
Thanks for the clarifications.

Yup. To be clear, this is the part I worded badly. :-/ In my mind, I
was looking at the separate devicetree repo that could be shared
broadly. *Not* the Linux kernel repo.

No. Nothing will change wrt to the Linux kernel. In my mind, I've
always viewed arch/arm/boot/dts as a separate repo that happens to be
incubating in the Linux kernel tree. Right or wrong, I was referring to
the dts/dtsi/bindings eventually standing on their own. Looking back on
the conversation, I definitely worded it badly. I apologize for that.

Yes, the difficulty lies in making that distribution *easy* for other
projects. They already have their own dts files, why would they adopt
our work if they have to pick through it?
I suspect the eventual solution (after the dts/bindings are their own
repo) will involve adopting the SPDX-* header tag, and then some
scripting to create separate git branches by license. That would allow
us to keep everything in the repo, make it easy to incorporate /
redistribute based on license, and hopefully reduce the maintenance
burden.
thx,
Jason.

Yes, the difficulty lies in making that distribution *easy* for other
projects. They already have their own dts files, why would they adopt
our work if they have to pick through it?
I suspect the eventual solution (after the dts/bindings are their own
repo) will involve adopting the SPDX-* header tag, and then some
scripting to create separate git branches by license. That would allow
us to keep everything in the repo, make it easy to incorporate /
redistribute based on license, and hopefully reduce the maintenance
burden.
thx,
Jason.

It is not something I can control. I asked the relevant people and I am
trying to get back to you with a definite reply asap, it can take a
while, you have been warned.
