The author forgot to add a license for this project. What shall we assume?

  It was submitted as a patch series to the Linux kernel mailing list, with proper "Signed-off-by" headers in the commit messages. So presumably it's usable under GPLv2. EDIT: I was referring to the kernel support, but it looks like you might have been talking about the code on Github which uses the LibOS API. That does indeed seem to be missing a license.

    Do you mean https://github.com/libos-nuse/net-next-nuse https://github.com/libos-nuse/net-next-nuse? There's a COPYING file: https://github.com/libos-nuse/net-next-nuse/blob/nuse/COPYING https://github.com/libos-nuse/net-next-nuse/blob/nuse/COPYIN... (GPLv2, taken from the kernel)

      I was talking about the repository linked from the original mailing list post: https://github.com/libos-nuse/linux-libos-tools https://github.com/libos-nuse/linux-libos-tools

  If you're in the US, lack of a license generally means standard copyright: http://choosealicense.com/no-license/ http://choosealicense.com/no-license/

  It's a patch to apply to the linux kernel. I guess you can assume GPLv2.
