Subject: CDDL/GPL licensing issues for ZFS Linux port
|
||||
|
||||
James,
|
||||
|
||||
We want to port Sun's Zettabyte File System (ZFS) to Linux and
|
||||
ultimately redistribute the source code of our work. We've been
|
||||
talking with Leah about this and have a meeting scheduled with you
|
||||
for this coming Thursday at 2pm. I just wanted to give you a summary
|
||||
before the meeting of what we're proposing.
|
||||
|
||||
ZFS is part of OpenSolaris which is licensed under the Common
|
||||
Development and Distribution License (CDDL):
|
||||
|
||||
http://www.opensolaris.org/os/licensing/cddllicense.txt
|
||||
|
||||
The Linux kernel is licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL)
|
||||
(specifically, under version 2 of the license only):
|
||||
|
||||
http://www.fsf.org/licensing/licenses/gpl.html
|
||||
|
||||
While these are both Open-Source licenses, the Free Software Foundation
|
||||
(FSF) states they are incompatible with one another:
|
||||
|
||||
http://www.fsf.org/licensing/licenses/index_html
|
||||
|
||||
"[CDDL] is a free software license which is not a strong copyleft;
|
||||
it has some complex restrictions that make it incompatible with the
|
||||
GNU GPL. It requires that all attribution notices be maintained,
|
||||
while the GPL only requires certain types of notices. Also, it
|
||||
terminates in retaliation for certain aggressive uses of patents.
|
||||
So, a module covered by the GPL and a module covered by the CDDL
|
||||
cannot legally be linked together."
|
||||
|
||||
As an aside, Sun is reportedly considering releasing OpenSolaris under
|
||||
GPL3 (i.e., the upcoming version 3 of the GNU General Public License):
|
||||
|
||||
http://blogs.sun.com/jonathan/entry/hp_and_sun_partnering_around
|
||||
|
||||
http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20060130-6074.html
|
||||
|
||||
http://news.com.com/Sun+considers+GPL+3+license+for+Solaris/2100-1016_3-6032893.html
|
||||
|
||||
Since the GPL3 has not been finalized, it is unclear whether
|
||||
incompatibilities will exist between GPL2 and GPL3.
|
||||
|
||||
Linus Torvalds (the original creator of Linux) describes his views
|
||||
on the licensing of Linux kernel modules in the following email thread:
|
||||
|
||||
http://linuxmafia.com/faq/Kernel/proprietary-kernel-modules.html
|
||||
|
||||
Most of this thread is in regards to proprietary closed-source
|
||||
binary-only modules for Linux. Linus generally considers modules
|
||||
written for Linux using the kernel infrastructures to be derived
|
||||
works of Linux, even if they don't copy any existing Linux code.
|
||||
However, he specifically singles out drivers and filesystems ported
|
||||
from other operating systems as not being derived works:
|
||||
|
||||
"It would be rather preposterous to call the Andrew FileSystem a
|
||||
'derived work' of Linux, for example, so I think it's perfectly
|
||||
OK to have a AFS module, for example."
|
||||
|
||||
"The original binary-only modules were for things that were
|
||||
pre-existing works of code, i.e., drivers and filesystems ported
|
||||
from other operating systems, which thus could clearly be argued
|
||||
to not be derived works..."
|
||||
|
||||
Based on this, it seems our port of Sun's ZFS filesystem to Linux
|
||||
would not be considered a derived work of Linux, and therefore not
|
||||
covered by the GPL. The issue of the CDDL/GPL license incompatibility
|
||||
becomes moot. As such, we should be able to redistribute our changes
|
||||
to ZFS in source-code form licensed under the CDDL since this will
|
||||
be a derived work of the original ZFS code. There seems to be some
|
||||
dissent as to whether a binary module could be redistributed as well,
|
||||
but that issue does not concern us. In this instance, we are only
|
||||
interested in redistribution of our work in source-code form.

|

Hi Chris,
|
||||
As per our discussion today, the ZFS port you are proposing releasing under
|
||||
the CDDL license should be o.k. since it is a derivative work of the
|
||||
original ZFS module (under CDDL) and is therefore also subject to CDDL
|
||||
under the distribution terms of that license. While the issue of linking
|
||||
has been greatly debated in the OS community, I think it is fair to say in
|
||||
this instance the ZFS port is not a derivative work of Linux and thus not
|
||||
subject to the GPL. Furthermore, it shouldn't be a problem especially
|
||||
since even Linus Torvald has expressed that modules such as yours are not
|
||||
derived works of Linux.
|
||||
|
||||
Let me know if you have any further questions at x27274. Thanks.

||||
