Comment 6 for bug 1714968

Note that I have not done a full review of this source to satisfy myself about the legalities, and am not asserting anything either way about the package as a whole (and as a result am also not accepting it directly); I have only reviewed enough to be address Andy's previous comment.

The code under uvp-monitor/securec contains copyright notices of the form:

  * Copyright @ Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. 1998-2014. All rights reserved.

"All rights reserved" is not a statement of any license or lack thereof. This is particular legal boilerplate language, historically required under certain (now obsolete) copyright treaties, which is part of the declaration of *copyright*.

If there is a top-level distribution license, there is no conflicting statement in this directory about distribution terms (which "all rights reserved" is not), and there is evidence that the code was submitted upstream to a GPL-licensed project by the copyright owner, that is sufficient grounds for assuming this is on the up-and-up and this does not need to be a blocker for acceptance into the archive.
