Unless otherwise stated, the source code distributed with this book
can be redistributed in source or binary form so long as an
acknowledgment appears in derived source files. The citation should
list that the code comes from BOOK by AUTHOR, published by O'Reilly &
Associates. This code is under copyright and cannot be included in
any other book, publication, or educational product without permission
from O'Reilly & Associates. No warranty is attached; we cannot take
responsibility for errors or fitness for use.
There are a few exception to this licence, however: a few sources
herein are distributed according to the GNU General Public License,
version 2. You'll find a copy of the license in
/usr/src/linux/COPYING, and in other places in your filesystem. The
affected source files are:
pci/pci_skel.c
tty/tiny_serial.c
tty/tiny_tty.c
usb/usb-skeleton.c
The files in ./pci ./tty and ./usb inherit the GPL from the kernel
sources, as most of their code comes straight from the kernel
(usb-skeleton.c being part of the kernel source tree directly.)
