SchOS/NOTICE
Nexoniarz df1394eaa3 SCFF: the live root ships compressed, with Xorg and Window Maker 
SCFF, the SchOS Compressed File Format (include/fs/scff.h), is a block
image cut into 128 KB chunks, each its own zstd frame, behind an index.
tools/mkscff writes it from fs-ram.img on every core (-19, 11 s) and
checks each chunk decompresses to itself. The kernel carries the .scff
as its ramdisk and unpacks a chunk the first time a block in it is
read; zero blocks share one page. The kernel and the ISO are the
compressed size, and the root costs memory only for what is touched.
See docs/architecture/scff.md.

zstd 1.5.7 comes from ports/zstd like uACPI: the decoder is compiled
into the kernel at -O2, with a static context and a 64 KB stack of its
own, and mkscff builds the whole library from the same release.

world now has xorg-server, the fbdev and evdev drivers, xinit, Window
Maker, xterm and DejaVu, and /root/.xinitrc runs wmaker. That root is
358 MB, 102 MB as SCFF.

The ISO no longer carries the root a third time as an ISO 9660 tree,
which nothing read. schos.iso: 1389 MB -> 318 MB. El Torito keeps its
own copy of the EFI image, the layout real machines have booted.

any later version. See LICENSE.
================================================================================
Third-party software
================================================================================
SchOS incorporates and redistributes software written by others. Their
licences apply to their code and are NOT superseded by the SchOS licence.
A built SchOS image contains binaries derived from all of the following.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
xv6-x86_64 / xv6 MIT License
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Copyright (c) 2006-2019 Frans Kaashoek, Robert Morris, Russ Cox,
Massachusetts Institute of Technology CSAIL
The SchIFT kernel is a derivative work of xv6. Substantial portions of
kernel/ -- notably the process, trap, virtual memory, buffer cache and v1
filesystem code -- descend from it, however heavily rewritten. The MIT licence
requires that this notice be preserved in all copies; see LICENSE.MIT.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
musl libc 1.2.5 MIT License
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Copyright (c) 2005-2020 Rich Felker and contributors
Built from ports/musl. Provides the C library every userland program links
against. See the extracted source's COPYRIGHT file for the full contributor
list, which the MIT terms require be carried along with binaries.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
toybox 0.8.12 Zero-Clause BSD (0BSD)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Copyright (c) 2006-2024 Rob Landley and contributors
Built from ports/toybox. Supplies the standard command set in /bin -- 268
applets, which is defconfig's 236 plus a curated set from toys/pending/ (awk,
bc, diff and the rest); see ports/toybox/Makefile. 0BSD imposes no attribution
requirement at all; this entry is courtesy, not obligation.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
kilo (commit 323d93b) BSD 2-Clause
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Copyright (c) 2016 Salvatore Sanfilippo <antirez@gmail.com>
Built from ports/kilo. Supplies /bin/kilo and /bin/edit, the text editor. The
BSD 2-Clause terms require the copyright notice and disclaimer be retained in
binary distributions; the full text is installed at
/usr/share/licenses/kilo/LICENSE in every image.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
mksh R59c MirOS Licence
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Copyright (c) 2002-2023 Thorsten Glaser and contributors
Portions derived from the Public Domain Korn Shell (pdksh)
Built from ports/mksh. Supplies /bin/sh. The MirOS Licence is permissive and
requires the copyright notice be retained.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
zsh 5.9 MIT-like
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Copyright (c) 1992-2017 Paul Falstad, Richard Coleman, Zoltan Hidvegi,
Andrew Main, Peter Stephenson, Sven Wischnowsky, and others
Built from ports/zsh. Installed as /bin/zsh and used as the interactive shell;
/bin/sh remains mksh.
zsh's LICENCE notes that a few shell functions are licensed under the GNU
General Public Licence and states that, since no core function is affected,
those files may simply be omitted. They are. ports/zsh/Makefile removes four
files after extraction -- completions for darcs, qdbus, osc and zypper -- and
refuses to install if any of them is still present. No GPL-licensed file is
shipped in a SchOS image.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ncurses 6.4 MIT License
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Copyright 2018-2022 Thomas E. Dickey
Copyright 1998-2018 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
Built from ports/ncurses. Linked into zsh so that its line editor can drive a
terminal, and into sysroot/bin/tinfotest. Built with --disable-database and
compiled-in fallbacks, so no terminfo files are installed.

Fetched by ports/lwip and compiled into the kernel -- it is the TCP/IP stack,
not a userland library, so it is present in every built kernel image rather
than in a binary under /bin. The port layer written for SchOS
(kernel/net/lwip/) is GPL-2.0-or-later and is not part of lwIP; lwIP's own
sources are unmodified. Clause 3 is a no-endorsement term, not the four-clause
advertising requirement, so it combines with the GPL without difficulty.

Fetched by ports/zstd. Its decoder is compiled into the kernel to read SCFF,
the compressed live root (docs/architecture/scff.md), and tools/mkscff builds
the whole library on the host to write it. zstd is dual-licensed; SchOS takes
it under the BSD licence above. The glue written for SchOS (kernel/scff/) is
GPL-2.0-or-later and is not part of zstd; zstd's own sources are unmodified.

Intel 8254x device identifiers BSD 3-Clause
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Copyright (c) 2001-2020, Intel Corporation
All rights reserved.
The PCI device IDs in include/e1000.h are transcribed from FreeBSD's
sys/dev/e1000/e1000_hw.h, which carries the Intel 3-clause BSD licence above
(verified: no advertising clause). Only the identifier constants are used --
data, not implementation. kernel/drivers/net/e1000/e1000.c is written from
Intel's public manual 317453 and contains no FreeBSD or Intel driver code.
Redistribution and use in source and binary forms, with or without
modification, are permitted provided that the conditions of the 3-clause BSD
licence are met, including retention of this notice and the disclaimer, and

usb.ids -- USB vendor and product database BSD 3-Clause (dual-licensed)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Maintained by Stephen J. Gowdy <linux.usb.ids@gmail.com>
http://www.linux-usb.org/usb.ids
Distributed by its maintainer under the terms of *either* the GNU General
Public License version 2 or later, *or* the 3-clause BSD Licence. SchOS takes
the BSD option, which was chosen while SchOS was Apache-2.0; either option is
compatible now, and the BSD one is kept because it asks less of anyone.
Shipped verbatim as /usr/share/hwdata/usb.ids. Cached in dist/ and refreshed
with `make usb-ids`, never automatically -- the version and date are in the
file's own header, so what shipped is always knowable.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
pci.ids -- PCI vendor and device database BSD 3-Clause (dual-licensed)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Maintained by Albert Pool, Martin Mares and the PCI ID Project volunteers
https://pci-ids.ucw.cz/
Distributed under the terms of *either* the GNU General Public License version
2 or later, *or* the 3-clause BSD Licence, as its header states. SchOS takes
the BSD option, as for usb.ids.
Shipped verbatim as /usr/share/hwdata/pci.ids. Cached in dist/ and refreshed
with `make pci-ids`, never automatically.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Roboto Apache-2.0
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Copyright the Roboto Project Authors (https://github.com/googlefonts/roboto)
Shipped as /usr/share/fonts/Roboto-Regular.ttf, from ports/Roboto. Licensed
under Apache-2.0. It is a separate data file loaded at run time, not code
linked into SchOS, so it sits beside the GPL as an aggregate and keeps its own
licence; the obligation is this notice. Intended for the desktop, window
manager and compositor.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JetBrains Mono SIL OFL 1.1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Copyright 2020 The JetBrains Mono Project Authors
(https://github.com/JetBrains/JetBrainsMono)
Shipped as /usr/share/fonts/JetBrainsMono-Regular.ttf, from ports/JetBrains_Mono
(full licence text at ports/JetBrains_Mono/OFL.txt). Intended for the terminal
and TTY.
Under the SIL Open Font License 1.1 the font remains under OFL even inside this
GPL-licensed system -- that does not reach any other part of SchOS -- and it may
not be sold on its own. Bundling it with an operating system is expressly
permitted. JetBrains Mono declares no Reserved Font Name, so a modified version
(a pre-rasterised bitmap, for instance) may keep the name.
Distinct from xv6 itself (LICENSE.MIT), which this project in turn derives from.
================================================================================
The build downloads upstream tarballs into dist/ and applies the patches in
ports/<name>/patches/. Nothing in ports/ is SchOS code; do not add first-party
work there. See docs/layout.md.
Licence questions -- what may be copied in, what may never be, and how to check
a NetBSD file's clause before using it -- are worked through in
docs/licensing.md.
fastfetch MIT
https://github.com/fastfetch-cli/fastfetch
Copyright (c) 2022 Linus Dierheimer and contributors
Built from source by ports/fastfetch and installed as /bin/fastfetch.
Unpatched: see the note at the top of that Makefile about why what it
cannot detect becomes work in the kernel rather than a patch here.
