Linking exception clause
The Genode OS Framework (Genode) is licensed under the terms of the
GNU Affero General Public License version 3 (AGPLv3).
Linking Genode code statically or dynamically with other modules
is making a combined work based on Genode. Thus, the terms and
conditions of the AGPLv3 cover the whole combination.
As an "additional permission" as defined by Section 7 of the
AGPLv3, Genode Labs as the copyright holder of Genode gives you
permission to link Genode source code with "independent modules"
to produce an executable if the independent modules are licensed
under an "approved license", and to copy and distribute the
resulting executable under terms of your choice, provided that you
also meet, for each linked independent module, the terms and
conditions of the license of that module.
An "approved license" is a license that is officially approved as
an Open-Source license by the Open Source Initiative [1], or
listed as a Free-Software license by the Free Software Foundation
[2], or explicitly approved by Genode Labs.
An "independent module" is a module which is not derived from or
based on Genode, or merely uses the Genode API as defined in the
official documentation.
If you modify Genode, you may extend this exception to your
version of Genode, but you are not obliged to do so. If you do not
wish to do so, delete this exception statement from your version.
