This package was debianized by Ian Wienand on Mon, 9 Feb 2004 10:26:54 +1100. It was downloaded from: https://github.com/ivmai/libatomic_ops (previously http://www.hpl.hp.com/research/linux/atomic_ops/download.php4) Upstream Authors: Hans Boehm David Mosberger Our intent is to make it easy to use all "library" pieces of the code, in both free and proprietary software. Hence most code that we expect to be linked into a client application is covered by an MIT-style license: ---------------------------------------- Copyright (c) 2004, Hewlett-Packard Company Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.

Permission to modify the code and to distribute modified code is granted, provided the above notices are retained, and a notice that the code was modified is included with the above copyright notice. ---------------------------------- A few files are covered by the GNU General Public License. (See file "COPYING"). Currently this applies only to test code and sample applications. This should have no effect on linking "library" routines into proprietary applications. A copy of the GNU General Public License can be found in: /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL In the future, legal considerations may make it desirable to also cover some newly added library routines under the GPL. If so, these will be clearly separated, and not implicitly linked into existing libraries.
