The files are already declaring LPGL-2.1 in their headers: - drivers/net/avp/rte_avp_common.h - drivers/net/avp/rte_avp_fifo.h - lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/eal/include/exec-env/rte_kni_common.h > In your patch you are just changing the links etc. so this may be an incremental change as well. I suggest to send a v3 to update it. Trishan, do you agree?
