Isn't the Linux kernel "GPLv2 only"?
- JoshTriplett 6y agoYes, but it's unlikely to link in a userspace library. This does prevent adapting code from OpenSSL to put in the kernel, but there are plenty of other sources to adapt code from. There are a few other notable codebases that are GPLv2-only, but most projects using the GPL use either "v2 or later" or "v3 or later".
