Every component or packages that is used to build the image are of various licenses for ex: GPL, MIT, Apache etc. This page details on how a user can get access to the Licenses or Source code or both for the "rootfs" (root filesystem) in the a given BSP.

See table below on complete list of published BSP and the list which provides the manifest of the rootfs components

Obtaining License and Source Code for Root File System in a BSP


A script is provided here for ease of use to a user to fetch the Licenses and Source code of the rootfs Root File System in a given BSP.

The script can be downloaded here fetch.sh

...

-a ${ARCH}

-r ${RELEASE}

-f ${FILE}

-t (sources or licenses)

script Output : Licenses and Source code for all the packages present in rootfs in separate directories


Example use:

./fetch.sh -a aarch64 -r 2019 -f filename.list -t licenses

./fetch.sh -a aarch64 -r 2019 -f filename.list -t sources

https://www.xilinx.com/support/download/index.html/content/xilinx/en/downloadNav/embedded-design-tools.html

  • Boards under "Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC Board Support Packages" will use aarch64 ARCH
  • Boards under "Zynq-7000 SoC Board Support Packages" will use arm ARCH
  • Boards under "MicroBlaze Board Support Packages" will user arm microblaze


How does the script work?

...

The input of the script is a manifest file which indicates the rootfs Root File System components that are part of the BSP.

...

udev-extraconf can be ignored as it is startup script of embedded Linux on target and does not have any source code related to it.
watchdog-init has the source script along with licenses in licenses
