It applies to a given file (the "Runtime Library") that -bears a notice placed by the copyright holder of the file stating that -the file is governed by GPLv3 along with this Exception. - -When you use GCC to compile a program, GCC may combine portions of -certain GCC header files and runtime libraries with the compiled -program. The purpose of this Exception is to allow compilation of -non-GPL (including proprietary) programs to use, in this way, the -header files and runtime libraries covered by this Exception. - -0. Definitions. - -A file is an "Independent Module" if it either requires the Runtime -Library for execution after a Compilation Process, or makes use of an -interface provided by the Runtime Library, but is not otherwise based -on the Runtime Library. - -"GCC" means a version of the GNU Compiler Collection, with or without -modifications, governed by version 3 (or a specified later version) of -the GNU General Public License (GPL) with the option of using any -subsequent versions published by the FSF. - -"GPL-compatible Software" is software whose conditions of propagation, -modification and use would permit combination with GCC in accord with -the license of GCC. - -"Target Code" refers to output from any compiler for a real or virtual -target processor architecture, in executable form or suitable for -input to an assembler, loader, linker and/or execution -phase. Notwithstanding that, Target Code does not include data in any -format that is used as a compiler intermediate representation, or used -for producing a compiler intermediate representation. - -The "Compilation Process" transforms code entirely represented in -non-intermediate languages designed for human-written code, and/or in -Java Virtual Machine byte code, into Target Code. Thus, for example, -use of source code generators and preprocessors need not be considered -part of the Compilation Process, since the Compilation Process can be -understood as starting with the output of the generators or -preprocessors. - -A Compilation Process is "Eligible" if it is done using GCC, alone or -with other GPL-compatible software, or if it is done without using any -work based on GCC. For example, using non-GPL-compatible Software to -optimize any GCC intermediate representations would not qualify as an -Eligible Compilation Process. - -1. Grant of Additional Permission. - -You have permission to propagate a work of Target Code formed by -combining the Runtime Library with Independent Modules, even if such -propagation would otherwise violate the terms of GPLv3, provided that -all Target Code was generated by Eligible Compilation Processes. You -may then convey such a combination under terms of your choice, -consistent with the licensing of the Independent Modules. - -2. No Weakening of GCC Copyleft. - -The availability of this Exception does not imply any general -presumption that third-party software is unaffected by the copyleft -requirements of the license of GCC. - |
