GCC RUNTIME LIBRARY EXCEPTION
|
|
Version 3.1, 31 March 2009
|
|
|
|
General information:
|
|
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gcc-exception.html
|
|
Copyright (C) 2009 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <http://fsf.org/>
|
|
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license
|
|
document, but changing it is not allowed.
|
|
This GCC Runtime Library Exception ("Exception") is an additional
|
|
permission under section 7 of the GNU General Public License, version 3
|
|
("GPLv3"). It applies to a given file (the "Runtime
|
|
Library") that bears a notice placed by the copyright holder of the file
|
|
stating that the file is governed by GPLv3 along with this Exception.
|
|
When you use GCC to compile a program, GCC may combine portions of certain GCC
|
|
header files and runtime libraries with the compiled program. The purpose of
|
|
this Exception is to allow compilation of non-GPL (including proprietary)
|
|
programs to use, in this way, the header files and runtime libraries covered by
|
|
this Exception.
|
|
|
|
0. Definitions.
|
|
A file is an "Independent Module" if it either requires the Runtime
|
|
Library for execution after a Compilation Process, or makes use of an interface
|
|
provided by the Runtime Library, but is not otherwise based on the Runtime
|
|
Library.
|
|
"GCC" means a version of the GNU Compiler Collection, with or without
|
|
modifications, governed by version 3 (or a specified later version) of the GNU
|
|
General Public License (GPL) with the option of using any subsequent versions
|
|
published by the FSF.
|
|
"GPL-compatible Software" is software whose conditions of
|
|
propagation, modification and use would permit combination with GCC in accord
|
|
with the license of GCC.
|
|
"Target Code" refers to output from any compiler for a real or
|
|
virtual target processor architecture, in executable form or suitable for input
|
|
to an assembler, loader, linker and/or execution phase. Notwithstanding that,
|
|
Target Code does not include data in any format that is used as a compiler
|
|
intermediate representation, or used for producing a compiler intermediate
|
|
representation.
|
|
The "Compilation Process" transforms code entirely represented in
|
|
non-intermediate languages designed for human-written code, and/or in Java
|
|
Virtual Machine byte code, into Target Code. Thus, for example, use of source
|
|
code generators and preprocessors need not be considered part of the
|
|
Compilation Process, since the Compilation Process can be understood as
|
|
starting with the output of the generators or preprocessors.
|
|
A Compilation Process is "Eligible" if it is done using GCC, alone or
|
|
with other GPL-compatible software, or if it is done without using any work
|
|
based on GCC. For example, using non-GPL-compatible Software to optimize any
|
|
GCC intermediate representations would not qualify as an Eligible Compilation
|
|
Process.
|
|
|
|
1. Grant of Additional Permission.
|
|
You have permission to propagate a work of Target Code formed by combining the
|
|
Runtime Library with Independent Modules, even if such propagation would
|
|
otherwise violate the terms of GPLv3, provided that all Target Code was
|
|
generated by Eligible Compilation Processes. You may then convey such a
|
|
combination under terms of your choice, consistent with the licensing of the
|
|
Independent Modules.
|
|
|
|
2. No Weakening of GCC Copyleft.
|
|
The availability of this Exception does not imply any general presumption that
|
|
third-party software is unaffected by the copyleft requirements of the license
|
|
of GCC.
