Open Source License problem

[Cryolitia]

This repo's code is clearly derived from GPL v2 code:

aic8800/src/SDIO/driver_fw/driver/aic8800/aic8800_fdrv/aic_br_ext.c

Lines 1 to 14 in eb8652a

But the repo is licensed under GPL v3:

aic8800/LICENSE

Lines 1 to 2 in eb8652a

	GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
	Version 3, 29 June 2007

We need clarity to continue to work on packaging it. As it stands it looks a lot like a violation of Realtek's (and probably other kernel developers') copyright.

I would like to know where does Radxa get these codes. Does Radxa get a promise from upstreamer that the license GPL v3 is correct and legitimate. Could you please confirm it from where you get the code.

We use some common package template which default to GPLv3. But the code under src is the code from AIC, which should be covered by their own license (if there is one). I'll see how to clarify this.

I'll also make debian/patches to be whatever license the src is.

[RadxaYuntian]

We have checked with AIC, and they will include GPL v2 license notice to future code releases. Current code is also licensed under GPL v2 and we will add a separate license to clarify it.
