I am trying to send my first patch to Linux kernel for Xbox One rumble support. Although the subset of the rumble protocol is implemented it works great. However as Linux kernel contribution requires certificate of origin I might need your agreement as I am using your work.

The developer's certificate of origin v1.1 in Linux kernel states that:

        By making a contribution to this project, I certify that:

        (a) The contribution was created in whole or in part by me and I
            have the right to submit it under the open source license
            indicated in the file; or

        (b) The contribution is based upon previous work that, to the best
            of my knowledge, is covered under an appropriate open source
            license and I have the right under that license to submit that
            work with modifications, whether created in whole or in part
            by me, under the same open source license (unless I am
            permitted to submit under a different license), as indicated
            in the file; or

        (c) The contribution was provided directly to me by some other
            person who certified (a), (b) or (c) and I have not modified
            it.

        (d) I understand and agree that this project and the contribution
            are public and that a record of the contribution (including all
            personal information I submit with it, including my sign-off) is
            maintained indefinitely and may be redistributed consistent with
            this project or the open source license(s) involved.

I added license that states that you are free to use the information in any way you want. I am happy to hear that this information has been useful. Good luck with your patch to the kernel!
