Rebecca,

I’m not an attorney. At Insyde, I have done numerous license reviews. This one 
would be too restrictive for IBV purposes.

And it restricts it from being used with Open Source Software, which TianoCore 
would probably be considered, even though TianoCore doesn’t cause any backward 
licensing.

Of course, an attorney might disagree.

Renesas might be willing to give TianoCore an exception if we explained the 
situation.

Thanks,
Kevin

I took a look at the firmware loader for the uPD720202 that Ard submitted back 
in 2017 and after asking Renesas learned that the last version of the firmware 
is actually publicly available on their site.

It can be downloaded from 
https://www.renesas.com/en/products/interface/usb-switches-hubs/upd720202-usb-30-host-controller#documents
 after accepting a license agreement - which I've attached in both the original 
PDF format and after converting it to plain text.


I'm hoping somebody is better than I am at parsing the legalese and can tell me 
if we'd be allowed to add the K2026090.mem firmware binary to edk2-non-osi?

There are still a few machines which use it including Ampere Altra based 
systems, so even after all this time it would be nice if we could add it.
