hmm. I know most folks here are not lawyers (or at least I assume so), but d'ya think that including a header in u-boot and not providing said header is a GPL violation?

<marex>
hanetzer: it is
<marex>
hanetzer: why would you ever do such a thing, what's so special about the header ?
<hanetzer>
marex: not I. Amazon.
<marex>
it's GPL, all the source used to generate the binary you have must be available, else violation
<hanetzer>
marex: well then, the u-boot running on the kindle paperwhite 11th gen is in violation of the gpl
persmule has joined #u-boot
<marex>
hanetzer: you sure it isnt some generated header ?
<marex>
hanetzer: does it compile ?
<hanetzer>
nope.
<hanetzer>
its based on 2019.04
<marex>
oh no
<marex>
hanetzer: which header is that ?
<hanetzer>
sec.
<marex>
hanetzer: its not something which used to be upstream and their broken release process just deleted ?
<hanetzer>
ufbl.h
<hanetzer>
maybe, lemme git log it
<hanetzer>
actually it may not be, possibly a false alarm
<marex>
heh
<hanetzer>
there *is* a ufbl.h header, but it does not compile (well, it requires a small patch to the dtc lexer but that's trivial and well known)

hanetzer: Which patches didn't I get?
<hanetzer>
sjg1: you should have gotten them, according to patman, I was just surprised it was assigned to kever yang
<marex>
hanetzer: some sort of license compliance scanner, it seems to come up a lot in conversations
<hanetzer>
interesting. I mean, they *do* dump quite a lot of source (some of it, admittedly, is pretty boring), but their u-boot.bin (its a FIT, not sure why; it only contains a single image; suppose verification or sommat) is not producable from their uboot.tar.gz file
<hanetzer>
/home/builder/workspace/bootloader-malbec/ufbl/platform/ufbl-features/../ufbl-features/features/libtomcrypt/src/ciphers/aes/aes.c for instance, not in the source
<marex>
maybe it is somehow signed ?
<hanetzer>
probably. ufbl is full of sig check stuff from what I can google.
<hanetzer>
also it seems that 'ufbl-features' is Apache 2.0 but its included into the u-boot.bin file, which is gpl2
<marex>
that part I _think_ is OK as long as you release the sources for whatever goes into the even partial GPL binary
<marex>
the simplest approach is obviously to release all the sources and build howto, and be done with it
<hanetzer>
yerp.
<hanetzer>
wish they had taken a chromebook-ish approach to their kindles tbh. I can do whatever I want to my kevin, even fail to boot :P
