Subject: [PATCH 0/2] add notes about license implications of bundled initramfs
Date: Thu, 23 Sep 2021 10:34:10 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210923083412.1500103-1-dwagenknecht@emlix.com> (raw)

As discussed on IRC the license implications of using
INITRAMFS_IMAGE_BUNDLE are not necessarily obvious. This patchseries
adds notes about them in the relevant places.

Source of this interpretation of the license implications is the second
paragraph of
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/filesystems/ramfs-rootfs-initramfs.html#external-initramfs-images

I placed them where I saw fit, although this leads to multiple `note`
blocks in direct succession. If this should be avoided a more thorough
rewrite of those sections might be necessary.

  common-tasks: add note about license implications of bundled initramfs
  ref-manual: add note about license implications of bundled initramfs
