The test code is licensed dual GPLv2/BSD. I should stick that in the package somewhere if I haven't already. My testcases mostly are testing things necessary for proper PAPI functionality and are by no means complete. There are huge areas of perf_event functionality that are not well tested, especially the overflow code.
