The below is not making claims about status-in-law.
It just notes example file content.


Cross checking a vague memory of what I'd seen
sometime in the past, using my head -r360311
context.

# egrep -ri "SPDX|Copyright" /usr/src/sys/gnu/dts/ | more

shows lots of Copyright notices and SPDX notices, including
a lot of "GPL-2.0", "GPL-2.0-only", "GPL-2.0+", and
"GPL-2.0-or-later" SPDX notices in the .dts , .dtsi  , and
.h files. It also showed some license lines with the word
"copyright" in the lines (whatever the capitalization
status).


By contrast,

# egrep -r "SPDX|Copyright" /usr/src/sys/dts/ | more

showed lots of Copyright notices but no SPDX notices.
It did show license lines with the word "copyright" in
the line as well.


For both egrep's, no *.dtso files were found as far as
I could tell.
