#9 Why RISCV64 related files are GPL only?

[shengjiangwu]

Hi

I have a question about the software license of GNUEFI. According to the introduction,

https://sourceforge.net/projects/gnu-efi/
https://sourceforge.net/p/gnu-efi/code/ci/master/tree/README.efilib

This software is BSD license (some of them may contains dual license of BSD and GPL)

However following source code are GPL only,

https://sourceforge.net/p/gnu-efi/code/ci/master/tree/lib/riscv64/initplat.c
https://sourceforge.net/p/gnu-efi/code/ci/master/tree/lib/riscv64/setjmp.S
https://sourceforge.net/p/gnu-efi/code/ci/master/tree/inc/riscv64/efilibplat.h
https://sourceforge.net/p/gnu-efi/code/ci/master/tree/gnuefi/elf_riscv64_efi.lds

It is incorrect license or it is intended? Thanks.

The original authors of the code published under the GPL license. Later on in time, most of the code was changed over to the BSD license.
