Hi,
I'm recently considering to cross-port btrfs-progs/U-boot btrfs code to
GRUB, so that we can have more unified code base, with more features
(and of-course bug fixes)
Did you check the license compatibility first? GRUB is GPLv3+ project
and we can't accept code that is GPLv2-only. What license is the code
that you want to use?
Oh, didn't know there would be license problem.
Then it would be complex.
Quite some code is directly copied from kernel without modification,
those should still be GPL-2.0 only.
For code already cross-ported to U-boot, it's GPL-2.0+, I guess it would
be OK there.
But from what I see in btrfs-progs, most of them is still GPL 2.0.
I guess during the cross-port to U-boot, I have already broken the GPL
2.0 requirement...
Any advice on this problem?
Thanks,
Qu
But the first blockage I'm hitting is the code style.
It looks like GRUB is using its own code style which is not found in
kernel/btrfs-progs/U-boot.
But I didn't find where the code style doc is, so is it a hard
requirement to follow the existing style even we're cross-porting most
code unmodified from other projects?
Thanks,
Qu
