Nexoniarz is the sole author and SchOS was never published under Apache-2.0, so this is a straight relicence. LICENSE is the FSF GPLv2 text, every first-party SPDX header moves to GPL-2.0-or-later, and NOTICE, README.md, docs/licensing.md and the site say so. projects/schfs-linux follows the rest of the tree. The GPL gives copyleft: a fork has to ship its source. It also lifts the old "Linux drivers, never" rule, since GPL-2.0-only code combines with GPL-2.0-or-later. "Or later" leaves room for GPLv3, but one binary still has to pick one version, so docs/licensing.md now keeps Apache-2.0 and GPLv3 code out of the kernel to keep Linux code possible there. BSD 4-clause code goes from "avoid" to "no", because the advertising clause is GPL-incompatible. LDLS still ships no .ko. That boundary is now project policy rather than a legal requirement, and ldls.md, devices.md and licensing.md section 6 say so. refmod declares license=GPL, and ldls-check passes (27 checks).

|
|
// symbol -- which logs its name and returns zero -- is exactly the wrong

// answer: it discards the jump.

// long comment. e1000 refills its receive ring through a function pointer, and
|
|
// the compiler made the call a *tail* call:
|
|
//
|

// mov 0x2a0(%rbx),%r8 ; adapter->alloc_rx_buf
|
|
// ... ; compute E1000_DESC_UNUSED(ring)

|
// jmp __x86_indirect_thunk_r8
|
|
//
|
|
// so the one thing in the log was `__x86_indirect_thunk_r8(...)` among four
|
|
// thousand other stub calls, and the visible symptom was a NIC that
|
|
// transmitted perfectly and received nothing, with RDT sitting at zero. The
|
|
// driver had asked for 255 receive buffers and the shim had answered "yes".
