Subject: [dpdk-dev]  [PATCH] net/vmxnet3: convert to 3-Clause BSD License
Date: Thu, 7 Dec 2017 13:59:04 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1512683944-8194-1-git-send-email-skhare@vmware.com> (raw)

On behalf of the DPDK Technical board, Hemant Agrawal observed that the
DPDK project's Intellectual Property Policy (http://dpdk.org/about/charter)
requires 3-Clause BSD license or an exception approval. However, two
vmxnet3 source files have 2-Clause BSD license.

This patch modifies those licenses to 3-Clause BSD license.
