# License
|
|
|
|
The files in this repository are released under standard open source
|
|
licenses, identified by [SPDX license tags][1]. Generally, kernel-level
|
|
code is licensed under GPLv2 and user-level code under the 2-clause BSD
|
|
license. See the individual file headers for details, or use one of the
|
|
publicly available SPDX tools to generate a bill of materials. The
|

directory `LICENSES` contains the text for all licenses that are

### GPL syscall note
|
|
Note that, as in the [Linux syscall note for the GPL][2], the seL4
|
|
kernel GPL license does *not* cover user-level code that uses kernel
|
|
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
|
|
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
|
|
Syscall headers are provided under BSD.
