Bug ID: 95243
Summary: libgomp documentation should specify GCC Runtime
Library Exception license as applicable
Product: gcc
Version: 10.1.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: libgomp
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: brentd42 at hotmail dot com
CC: jakub at gcc dot gnu.org
Target Milestone: ---
>From an inspection of the code base, it appears that libgomp uses the GPL v3
license with the GCC Runtime Library exception. However, the libgomp
documentation page
(https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-10.1.0/libgomp/Copying.html#Copying) lists
only GPL v3 and not the exception.
Conversely, libstc++ specifies the GCC Runtime Library exception license
(https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-10.1.0/libstdc++/manual/manual/license.html#manual.intro.status.license.gpl)
as expected.
Similarly to libstc++, could the libgomp documentation be updated to specify
the GCC Runtime Library exception license as applicable?
