I've checked brcm80211 and noticed defines in drivers/staging/brcm80211/phy/wlc_phy_radio.h. Whole brcm80211 driver is licensed as: MODULE_LICENSE("Dual BSD/GPL"); Mentioned file contains following comments: +/* + * Copyright (c) 2010 Broadcom Corporation + * + * Permission to use, copy, modify, and/or distribute this software for any + * purpose with or without fee is hereby granted, provided that the above + * copyright notice and this permission notice appear in all copies. Our b43 driver is licensed as: MODULE_LICENSE("GPL"); and I am not sure if permission above is actually GPL-compatible. The best option would be to add defines from wlc_phy_radio.h and include Broadcom's copyright. However comment above wants us to include info about free copying/modifying/using which is not GPL-compatible. Is there any way to solve this issue? -- Rafał
