It applies to a given file (the "Runtime Library") that<br/> +bears a notice placed by the copyright holder of the file stating that<br/> +the file is governed by GPLv3 along with this Exception.<br/> +<br/> +When you use GCC to compile a program, GCC may combine portions of<br/> +certain GCC header files and runtime libraries with the compiled<br/> +program. The purpose of this Exception is to allow compilation of<br/> +non-GPL (including proprietary) programs to use, in this way, the<br/> +header files and runtime libraries covered by this Exception.<br/> +<br/> +0. Definitions.<br/> +<br/> +A file is an "Independent Module" if it either requires the Runtime<br/> +Library for execution after a Compilation Process, or makes use of an<br/> +interface provided by the Runtime Library, but is not otherwise based<br/> +on the Runtime Library.<br/> +<br/> +"GCC" means a version of the GNU Compiler Collection, with or without<br/> +modifications, governed by version 3 (or a specified later version) of<br/> +the GNU General Public License (GPL) with the option of using any<br/> +subsequent versions published by the FSF.<br/> +<br/> +"GPL-compatible Software" is software whose conditions of propagation,<br/> +modification and use would permit combination with GCC in accord with<br/> +the license of GCC.<br/> +<br/> +"Target Code" refers to output from any compiler for a real or virtual<br/> +target processor architecture, in executable form or suitable for<br/> +input to an assembler, loader, linker and/or execution<br/> +phase. Notwithstanding that, Target Code does not include data in any<br/> +format that is used as a compiler intermediate representation, or used<br/> +for producing a compiler intermediate representation.<br/> +<br/> +The "Compilation Process" transforms code entirely represented in<br/> +non-intermediate languages designed for human-written code, and/or in<br/> +Java Virtual Machine byte code, into Target Code. Thus, for example,<br/> +use of source code generators and preprocessors need not be considered<br/> +part of the Compilation Process, since the Compilation Process can be<br/> +understood as starting with the output of the generators or<br/> +preprocessors.<br/> +<br/> +A Compilation Process is "Eligible" if it is done using GCC, alone or<br/> +with other GPL-compatible software, or if it is done without using any<br/> +work based on GCC. For example, using non-GPL-compatible Software to<br/> +optimize any GCC intermediate representations would not qualify as an<br/> +Eligible Compilation Process.<br/> +<br/> +1. Grant of Additional Permission.<br/> +<br/> +You have permission to propagate a work of Target Code formed by<br/> +combining the Runtime Library with Independent Modules, even if such<br/> +propagation would otherwise violate the terms of GPLv3, provided that<br/> +all Target Code was generated by Eligible Compilation Processes. You<br/> +may then convey such a combination under terms of your choice,<br/> +consistent with the licensing of the Independent Modules.<br/> +<br/> +2.
