+ GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
|
|
|
+ Version 3, 29 June 2007
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <https://fsf.org/>
|
|
|
+ Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
|
|
|
+ of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ This version of the GNU Lesser General Public License incorporates
|
|
|
+the terms and conditions of version 3 of the GNU General Public
|
|
|
+License, supplemented by the additional permissions listed below.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ 0. Additional Definitions.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ As used herein, "this License" refers to version 3 of the GNU Lesser
|
|
|
+General Public License, and the "GNU GPL" refers to version 3 of the GNU
|
|
|
+General Public License.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ "The Library" refers to a covered work governed by this License,
|
|
|
+other than an Application or a Combined Work as defined below.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ An "Application" is any work that makes use of an interface provided
|
|
|
+by the Library, but which is not otherwise based on the Library.
|
|
|
+Defining a subclass of a class defined by the Library is deemed a mode
|
|
|
+of using an interface provided by the Library.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ A "Combined Work" is a work produced by combining or linking an
|
|
|
+Application with the Library. The particular version of the Library
|
|
|
+with which the Combined Work was made is also called the "Linked
|
|
|
+Version".
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ The "Minimal Corresponding Source" for a Combined Work means the
|
|
|
+Corresponding Source for the Combined Work, excluding any source code
|
|
|
+for portions of the Combined Work that, considered in isolation, are
|
|
|
+based on the Application, and not on the Linked Version.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ The "Corresponding Application Code" for a Combined Work means the
|
|
|
+object code and/or source code for the Application, including any data
|
|
|
+and utility programs needed for reproducing the Combined Work from the
|
|
|
+Application, but excluding the System Libraries of the Combined Work.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ 1. Exception to Section 3 of the GNU GPL.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ You may convey a covered work under sections 3 and 4 of this License
|
|
|
+without being bound by section 3 of the GNU GPL.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ 2. Conveying Modified Versions.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ If you modify a copy of the Library, and, in your modifications, a
|
|
|
+facility refers to a function or data to be supplied by an Application
|
|
|
+that uses the facility (other than as an argument passed when the
|
|
|
+facility is invoked), then you may convey a copy of the modified
|
|
|
+version:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ a) under this License, provided that you make a good faith effort to
|
|
|
+ ensure that, in the event an Application does not supply the
|
|
|
+ function or data, the facility still operates, and performs
|
|
|
+ whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful, or
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ b) under the GNU GPL, with none of the additional permissions of
|
|
|
+ this License applicable to that copy.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ 3. Object Code Incorporating Material from Library Header Files.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ The object code form of an Application may incorporate material from
|
|
|
+a header file that is part of the Library. You may convey such object
|
|
|
+code under terms of your choice, provided that, if the incorporated
|
|
|
+material is not limited to numerical parameters, data structure
|
|
|
+layouts and accessors, or small macros, inline functions and templates
|
|
|
+(ten or fewer lines in length), you do both of the following:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the object code that the
|
|
|
+ Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are
|
|
|
+ covered by this License.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ b) Accompany the object code with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license
|
|
|
+ document.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ 4. Combined Works.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ You may convey a Combined Work under terms of your choice that,
|
|
|
+taken together, effectively do not restrict modification of the
|
|
|
+portions of the Library contained in the Combined Work and reverse
|
|
|
+engineering for debugging such modifications, if you also do each of
|
|
|
+the following:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ a) Give prominent notice with each copy of the Combined Work that
|
|
|
+ the Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are
|
|
|
+ covered by this License.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ b) Accompany the Combined Work with a copy of the GNU GPL and this license
|
|
|
+ document.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ c) For a Combined Work that displays copyright notices during
|
|
|
+ execution, include the copyright notice for the Library among
|
|
|
+ these notices, as well as a reference directing the user to the
|
|
|
+ copies of the GNU GPL and this license document.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ d) Do one of the following:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ 0) Convey the Minimal Corresponding Source under the terms of this
|
|
|
+ License, and the Corresponding Application Code in a form
|
|
|
+ suitable for, and under terms that permit, the user to
|
|
|
+ recombine or relink the Application with a modified version of
|
|
|
+ the Linked Version to produce a modified Combined Work, in the
|
|
|
+ manner specified by section 6 of the GNU GPL for conveying
|
|
|
+ Corresponding Source.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ 1) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
|
|
|
+ Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (a) uses at run time
|
|
|
+ a copy of the Library already present on the user's computer
|
|
|
+ system, and (b) will operate properly with a modified version
|
|
|
+ of the Library that is interface-compatible with the Linked
|
|
|
+ Version.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ e) Provide Installation Information, but only if you would otherwise
|
|
|
+ be required to provide such information under section 6 of the
|
|
|
+ GNU GPL, and only to the extent that such information is
|
|
|
+ necessary to install and execute a modified version of the
|
|
|
+ Combined Work produced by recombining or relinking the
|
|
|
+ Application with a modified version of the Linked Version. (If
|
|
|
+ you use option 4d0, the Installation Information must accompany
|
|
|
+ the Minimal Corresponding Source and Corresponding Application
|
|
|
+ Code. If you use option 4d1, you must provide the Installation
|
|
|
+ Information in the manner specified by section 6 of the GNU GPL
|
|
|
+ for conveying Corresponding Source.)
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ 5. Combined Libraries.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
|
|
|
+Library side by side in a single library together with other library
|
|
|
+facilities that are not Applications and are not covered by this
|
|
|
+License, and convey such a combined library under terms of your
|
|
|
+choice, if you do both of the following:
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based
|
|
|
+ on the Library, uncombined with any other library facilities,
|
|
|
+ conveyed under the terms of this License.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ b) Give prominent notice with the combined library that part of it
|
|
|
+ is a work based on the Library, and explaining where to find the
|
|
|
+ accompanying uncombined form of the same work.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ 6. Revised Versions of the GNU Lesser General Public License.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions
|
|
|
+of the GNU Lesser General Public License from time to time. Such new
|
|
|
+versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
|
|
|
+differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
|
|
|
+Library as you received it specifies that a certain numbered version
|
|
|
+of the GNU Lesser General Public License "or any later version"
|
|
|
+applies to it, you have the option of following the terms and
|
|
|
+conditions either of that published version or of any later version
|
|
|
+published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Library as you
|
|
|
+received it does not specify a version number of the GNU Lesser
|
|
|
+General Public License, you may choose any version of the GNU Lesser
|
|
|
+General Public License ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ If the Library as you received it specifies that a proxy can decide
|
|
|
+whether future versions of the GNU Lesser General Public License shall
|
|
|
+apply, that proxy's public statement of acceptance of any version is
|
|
|
+permanent authorization for you to choose that version for the
|
|
|
+Library.

|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+Note: As far as the above text is open to interpretation when applied to
|
|
|
+HDL ip cores, it should be understood in the following manner :
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ - usage of the ip core itself, as is in this repository only requires
|
|
|
+ to provide a mean to rebuild the distributed images/bitstreams using
|
|
|
+ a different version of the ip core with the same interface
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+ - usage of a modified version of the ip core additionally requires to
|
|
|
+ provide the modifies sources.
