This is very different. The Linux kernel
My logic is the same one you find in Linux kernel and in other GNU projects.
While the Kernel is under GPL 2.
The headers and system call are under exception, so user can use the Kernel

Hi,
I see that linux PTP is under GPL 2.

As you are the copywrite holders, we need your explicit consent.
Thanks

Hi,
As I thought that libpmc could be nice for several application that need to
communicate with the ptp4l.
I decided to make a short test.
First I patch the makefile to create the libpmc.so
diff --git a/makefile b/makefile
index a23945a..f5e12da 100644
--- a/makefile
+++ b/makefile
