This license is already there in many files in examples/performance- thread directory.
There are two cases in my patch. 1. I moved some code from examples/performance-thread/common/lthread.c to examples/performance-thread/common/arch/x86/stack.h. lthread.c already has the below kind of license. So I think there is no issue retaining the same in stack.h also. 2. I added the following files. examples/performance-thread/common/arch/arm64/ctx.c examples/performance-thread/common/arch/arm64/ctx.h examples/performance-thread/common/arch/arm64/stack.h These are actually written by me and not taken from the github link. By mistake I copied the license entirely :) For these files, I shall remove it and re-post a v3.
