2017-10-06license.py: Correct selection of licenses in is_included()Peter Kjellerstedt
When faced with multiple sets of licenses combined with | (OR), it was possible for oe.license.is_included() to choose a set of licenses with a blacklisted license and then report failure, even if choosing another set of licenses would have resulted in a successful result. This happened when the chosen set still contained more whitelisted licenses than the other set. This change makes sure a set with any blacklisted license is always considered with a lower weight than a set with only whitelisted licenses. Example: Faced with the license string "GPL-3.0 & GPL-2.0 & LGPL-2.1 | Proprietary" and with "GPL-3.0" being blacklisted, the old code would report a failure since "GPL-3.0 & GPL-2.0 & LGPL-2.1" still contains more whitelisted licenses than "Proprietary" does. This change also adds a unit test for oe.license.is_included(). Signed-off-by: Peter Kjellerstedt <peter.kjellerstedt@axis.com> Signed-off-by: Ross Burton <ross.burton@intel.com>
2016-08-25license: simple verification of LICENSE_<pkg> valuesMarkus Lehtonen
LICENSE should be a superset of all LICENSE_<pkg> values. That is, LICENSE should contain all licenses and LICENSE_<pkg> can be used to "filter" this on a per-package basis. LICENSE_<pkg> shouldn't contain anything that isn't specified in LICENSE. This patch implements simple checking of LICENSE_<pkg> values. It does do not do advanced parsing/matching of license expressions, but, checks that all licenses mentioned in LICENSE_<pkg> are also specified in LICENSE. A warning is printed if problems are found.

2016-06-02classes/lib: Update to explictly create lists where neededRichard Purdie
Iterators now return views, not lists in python3. Where we need lists, handle this explicitly. Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie <richard.purdie@linuxfoundation.org>
2015-05-09license: Add support for handle INCOMPATIBLE_LICENSE in manifest creationAníbal Limón
When INCOMPATIBLE_LICENSE's is specified it need to be removed from license.manifest and also avoid copy to target image. Add ManifestVisitor that walk the license string searching for INCOMPATIBLE_LICENSE's if found remove it.

2012-04-04license.py: fix behaviour of copyleft_complianceEric Bénard
actually if a package has a license in its LICENSE variable which is not in the whitelist nor in the blacklist and even if an other license in this variable is in the whitelist, the package gets excluded and is not taken in account in the copyleft_compliance. This patch solves this by excluding a recipe _only_ if the LICENSE variable includes a pattern from the blacklist and including a recipe only if it includes a variable from the whitelist _and_ none from the blacklist. Example in busybox which has LICENSE="GPLv2 & BSD-4-Clause", with the actual behaviour (where he blacklist contains only CLOSED Proprietary) we get : DEBUG: copyleft: busybox-1.19.4 is excluded: recipe has excluded licenses: BSD-4-Clause which is not sane because busybox is covered by a copyleft license which is GPLv2 and should match the default whitelist which is GPL* LGPL*.

2012-01-17oe.license: add is_included convenience functionChristopher Larson
Given a license string and whitelist and blacklist, determine if the license string matches the whitelist and does not match the blacklist. When encountering an OR, it prefers the side with the highest weight (more included licenses). It then checks the inclusion of the flattened list of licenses from there. Returns a tuple holding the boolean state and a list of the applicable licenses which were excluded (or None, if the state is True) Examples: is_included, excluded = oe.license.is_included(licensestr, ['GPL*', 'LGPL*']) is_included, excluded = oe.license.is_included(licensestr, blacklist=['Proprietary', 'CLOSED']) Signed-off-by: Christopher Larson <chris_larson@mentor.com>

This flattens a license tree by selecting one side of each OR operation (chosen via the user supplied function). Signed-off-by: Christopher Larson <kergoth@gmail.com>
2011-12-08license: split license parsing into oe.licenseChristopher Larson
In addition to moving this functionality to oe.license, makes the string preparation more picky before passing it off to the ast compilation. This ensures that LICENSE entries like 'GPL/BSD' are seen as invalid (due to the presence of the unsupported '/'). Signed-off-by: Christopher Larson <kergoth@gmail.com>
