Documentation/ is far behind on the SPDX front, and I'm all in favor of fixing that. I do worry, though, about sticking license declarations onto files that did not previously have them; do we know what the original contributor's intent was? > Changes from v1 > (https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230114194741.115855-2-sj@kernel.org/) > - Separate from index file content changes > - Separate patch for each subsystem doc (Alex Deucher) > - Use MIT license for gpu (Alex Deucher) > > SeongJae Park (8): > Docs/crypto/index: Add missing SPDX License Identifier > Docs/driver-api/index: Add missing SPDX License Identifier > Docs/gpu/index: Add missing SPDX License Identifier > Docs/hwmon/index: Add missing SPDX License Identifier > Docs/input/index: Add missing SPDX License Identifier > Docs/mm/index: Add missing SPDX License Identifier > Docs/scheduler/index: Add missing SPDX License Identifier > Docs/sound/index: Add missing SPDX License Identifier > > Documentation/crypto/index.rst | 2 ++ > Documentation/driver-api/index.rst | 2 ++ I added this one, and GPLv2 is fine there. > Documentation/gpu/index.rst | 2 ++ > Documentation/hwmon/index.rst | 2 ++ > Documentation/input/index.rst | 2 ++ > Documentation/mm/index.rst | 2 ++ > Documentation/scheduler/index.rst | 2 ++ > Documentation/sound/index.rst | 2 ++ > 8 files changed, 16 insertions(+) Thanks, jon

There are currently more than twice as many GPL-2.0 declarations than GPL-2.0-only. Thanks, jon

The others are also fine, I think, but I hesitate to apply license texts to files without knowing that they match the author's intent. I hate to say it, but I think the best approach is to send each of the remaining patches to the appropriate maintainers for the subsystem involved. Thanks, jon
