31 Appendix A Intel® DPDK License Overview
32 =========================================
35 The following describes the various licenses used by the Intel® Data Plane Development Kit (Intel® DPDK).
36 The purpose of the Intel® DPDK is to prove the abilities of the Intel® architecture processors and to provide users with a strong set of examples, libraries and proof points.
37 By placing the majority of this software under the BSD License, users may choose to use the Intel® as is, parts of it, or just the ideas for their programs.
38 All code may be modified by the user to suit their project needs and requirements.
42 The license in each source file takes precedence over this document, and should be used as the definitive license for that file.
43 All users should seek their legal team's guidance with respect to the licensing used by the Intel® DPDK.
47 The following table lists those files (or libraries) that are not under a BSD License. In some cases, these files are part of the standard Intel® DPDK release package,
48 and in other cases may be a separate package that requires a separate download to be added to the Intel® DPDK. This document spells out those cases where possible.
50 The sections following the table provide the various licenses used. Please note that copyright notices may change overtime.
51 It is the responsibility of all users to understand these licenses and seek their legal team's guidance.
53 The use of the GPLv2 License is confined to files in kernel loadable modules.
55 The use of the Dual BSD/LGPLv2 License and Dual BSD/GPL License allows use with either free/open source software or with proprietary software in userspace.
