Missing GPL source for fip.bin #4

Closed xypron closed 1 year ago

It seems that fip.bin contains different pieces of software with different licenses:

The Gnu Public License of U-Boot requires providing the source code of derived works. fp.bin is such a derived work.

The BSD 3 license of ARM Trusted Firmware allows binary only distribution.

To comply with the U-Boot license, please, consider either providing all code to create fp.bin or separating the two software pieces and providing the U-Boot in source form and TF-A in binary form.

Publishing your U-Boot source will provide a starting point for adding Sophgo specific parts to the mainline U-Boot and thereby to ensure long term support.

Thanks. It has been updated to remove uboot.
