Thomas,
Before I rework,
What is your opinion w.r.t tooling in DPDK w.r.t SPDX.
I saw a patch for checkpatch in Linux, which will also check for SPDX
presence for any new file, however this patch only checked first two
line for SPDX presence. (currently it is nak for other reasons)
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10053699/
If it makes easy for us, we can use the SPDX as first/second line
convention.
I agree we should follow the convention chosen in Linux,
because we may use the same tools.
Is it already decided for Linux? Can we influence the decision for Linux?
I have posted my comments on other thread. Linux have good reasons to do
it. If we have to use linux tool and common code, we shall adapt to same.
