| 4 | Even though U-Boot in general is covered by the GPL-2.0/GPL-2.0+, |
| 5 | this does *not* cover the so-called "standalone" applications that |
| 6 | use U-Boot services by means of the jump table provided by U-Boot |
| 7 | exactly for this purpose - this is merely considered normal use of |
| 8 | U-Boot, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work". |

| 10 | The header files "include/image.h" and "arch/*/include/asm/u-boot.h" |
| 11 | define interfaces to U-Boot. Including these (unmodified) header |
| 12 | files in another file is considered normal use of U-Boot, and does |
| 13 | *not* fall under the heading of "derived work". |
