Kirkland: ZFS licensing and Linux Dustin Kirkland justifies Ubuntu's plans to ship the ZFS filesystem kernel module. "And zfs.ko, as a self-contained file system module, is clearly not a derivative work of the Linux kernel but rather quite obviously a derivative work of OpenZFS and OpenSolaris. Equivalent exceptions have existed for many years, for various other stand alone, self-contained, non-GPL and even proprietary (hi, nvidia.ko) kernel modules." |
