|  | Even though U-Boot in general is covered by the GPL-2.0/GPL-2.0+, | 
|  | this does *not* cover the so-called "standalone" applications that | 
|  | use U-Boot services by means of the jump table provided by U-Boot | 
|  | exactly for this purpose - this is merely considered normal use of | 
|  | U-Boot, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work". | 
|  |  | 
|  | The header files "include/image.h" and "arch/*/include/asm/u-boot.h" | 
|  | define interfaces to U-Boot.  Including these (unmodified) header | 
|  | files in another file is considered normal use of U-Boot, and does | 
|  | *not* fall under the heading of "derived work". |
