Squashed commit of the sb-vbs branch.
Includes the SD-VBS benchmarks modified to:
- Use libextra to loop as realtime jobs
- Preallocate memory before starting their main computation
- Accept input via stdin instead of via argc
Does not include the SD-VBS matlab code.
Fixes libextra execution in LITMUS^RT.

| 129 | Version 2, June 1991 | ||
| 130 | </p> | ||
| 131 | |||
| 132 | <pre> | ||
| 133 | Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc. | ||
| 134 | 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA | ||
| 135 | |||
| 136 | Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies | ||
| 137 | of this license document, but changing it is not allowed. | ||
| 138 | </pre> | ||
| 139 | |||
| 140 | <h3><a name="preamble"></a><a name="SEC2" href="gpl-2.0.html#TOC2">Preamble</a></h3> | ||
| 141 | |||
| 142 | <p> | ||
| 143 | The licenses for most software are designed to take away your | ||
| 144 | freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public | ||
| 145 | License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free | ||
| 146 | software--to make sure the software is free for all its users. This | ||
| 147 | General Public License applies to most of the Free Software | ||
| 148 | Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to | ||
| 149 | using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by | ||
| 150 | the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.) You can apply it to | ||
| 151 | your programs, too. | ||
| 152 | </p> | ||
| 153 | |||
| 154 | <p> | ||
| 155 | When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not | ||
| 156 | price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you | ||
| 157 | have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for | ||
| 158 | this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it | ||
| 159 | if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it | ||
| 160 | in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things. | ||
| 161 | </p> | ||
| 162 | |||
| 163 | <p> | ||
| 164 | To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid | ||
| 165 | anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. | ||
| 166 | These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you | ||
| 167 | distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it. | ||
| 168 | </p> | ||
| 169 | |||
| 170 | <p> | ||
| 171 | For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether | ||
| 172 | gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that | ||
| 173 | you have. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the | ||
| 174 | source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their | ||
| 175 | rights. | ||
| 176 | </p> | ||
| 177 | |||
| 178 | <p> | ||
| 179 | We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and | ||
| 180 | (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, | ||
| 181 | distribute and/or modify the software. | ||
| 182 | </p> | ||
| 183 | |||
| 184 | <p> | ||
| 185 | Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain | ||
| 186 | that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free | ||
| 187 | software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we | ||
| 188 | want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so | ||
| 189 | that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original | ||
| 190 | authors' reputations. | ||
| 191 | </p> | ||
| 192 | |||
| 193 | <p> | ||
| 194 | Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software | ||
| 195 | patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free | ||
| 196 | program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the | ||
| 197 | program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any | ||
| 198 | patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all. | ||
| 199 | </p> | ||
| 200 | |||
| 201 | <p> | ||
| 202 | The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and | ||
| 203 | modification follow. | ||
| 204 | </p> | ||
| 205 | |||
| 206 | |||
| 207 | <h3><a name="terms"></a><a name="SEC3" href="gpl-2.0.html#TOC3">TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION</a></h3> | ||
| 208 | |||
| 209 | |||
| 210 | <a name="section0"></a><p> | ||
| 211 | <strong>0.</strong> | ||
| 212 | This License applies to any program or other work which contains | ||
| 213 | a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed | ||
| 214 | under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, | ||
| 215 | refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" | ||
| 216 | means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: | ||
| 217 | that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, | ||
| 218 | either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another | ||
| 219 | language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in | ||
| 220 | the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you". | ||
| 221 | </p> | ||
| 222 | |||
| 223 | <p> | ||
| 224 | Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not | ||
| 225 | covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of | ||
| 226 | running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program | ||
| 227 | is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the | ||
| 228 | Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). | ||
| 229 | Whether that is true depends on what the Program does. | ||
| 230 | </p> | ||
| 231 | |||
| 232 | <a name="section1"></a><p> | ||
| 233 | <strong>1.</strong> | ||
| 234 | You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's | ||
| 235 | source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you | ||
| 236 | conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate | ||
| 237 | copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the | ||
| 238 | notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; | ||
| 239 | and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License | ||
| 240 | along with the Program. | ||
| 241 | </p> | ||
| 242 | |||
| 243 | <p> | ||
| 244 | You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and | ||
| 245 | you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee. | ||
| 246 | </p> | ||
| 247 | |||
| 248 | <a name="section2"></a><p> | ||
| 249 | <strong>2.</strong> | ||
| 250 | You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion | ||
| 251 | of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and | ||
| 252 | distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 | ||
| 253 | above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: | ||
| 254 | </p> | ||
| 255 | |||
| 256 | <dl> | ||
| 257 | <dt></dt> | ||
| 258 | <dd> | ||
| 259 | <strong>a)</strong> | ||
| 260 | You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices | ||
| 261 | stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. | ||
| 262 | </dd> | ||
| 263 | <dt></dt> | ||
| 264 | <dd> | ||
| 265 | <strong>b)</strong> | ||
| 266 | You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in | ||
| 267 | whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any | ||
| 268 | part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third | ||
| 269 | parties under the terms of this License. | ||
| 270 | </dd> | ||
| 271 | <dt></dt> | ||
| 272 | <dd> | ||
| 273 | <strong>c)</strong> | ||
| 274 | If the modified program normally reads commands interactively | ||
| 275 | when run, you must cause it, when started running for such | ||
| 276 | interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an | ||
| 277 | announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a | ||
| 278 | notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide | ||
| 279 | a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under | ||
| 280 | these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this | ||
| 281 | License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but | ||
| 282 | does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on | ||
| 283 | the Program is not required to print an announcement.) | ||
| 284 | </dd> | ||
| 285 | </dl> | ||
| 286 | |||
| 287 | <p> | ||
| 288 | These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If | ||
| 289 | identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, | ||
| 290 | and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in | ||
| 291 | themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those | ||
| 292 | sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you | ||
| 293 | distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based | ||
| 294 | on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of | ||
| 295 | this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the | ||
| 296 | entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it. | ||
| 297 | </p> | ||
| 298 | |||
| 299 | <p> | ||
| 300 | Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest | ||
| 301 | your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to | ||
| 302 | exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or | ||
| 303 | collective works based on the Program. | ||
| 304 | </p> | ||
| 305 | |||
| 306 | <p> | ||
| 307 | In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program | ||
| 308 | with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of | ||
| 309 | a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under | ||
| 310 | the scope of this License. | ||
| 311 | </p> | ||
| 312 | |||
| 313 | <a name="section3"></a><p> | ||
| 314 | <strong>3.</strong> | ||
| 315 | You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, | ||
| 316 | under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of | ||
| 317 | Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: | ||
| 318 | </p> | ||
| 319 | |||
| 320 | <!-- we use this doubled UL to get the sub-sections indented, --> | ||
| 321 | <!-- while making the bullets as unobvious as possible. --> | ||
| 322 | |||
| 323 | <dl> | ||
| 324 | <dt></dt> | ||
| 325 | <dd> | ||
| 326 | <strong>a)</strong> | ||
| 327 | Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable | ||
| 328 | source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections | ||
| 329 | 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, | ||
| 330 | </dd> | ||
| 331 | <dt></dt> | ||
| 332 | <dd> | ||
| 333 | <strong>b)</strong> | ||
| 334 | Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three | ||
| 335 | years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your | ||
| 336 | cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete | ||
| 337 | machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be | ||
| 338 | distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium | ||
| 339 | customarily used for software interchange; or, | ||
| 340 | </dd> | ||
| 341 | <dt></dt> | ||
| 342 | <dd> | ||
| 343 | <strong>c)</strong> | ||
| 344 | Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer | ||
| 345 | to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is | ||
| 346 | allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you | ||
| 347 | received the program in object code or executable form with such | ||
| 348 | an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.) | ||
| 349 | </dd> | ||
| 350 | </dl> | ||
| 351 | |||
| 352 | <p> | ||
| 353 | The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for | ||
| 354 | making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source | ||
| 355 | code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any | ||
| 356 | associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to | ||
| 357 | control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a | ||
| 358 | special exception, the source code distributed need not include | ||
| 359 | anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary | ||
| 360 | form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the | ||
| 361 | operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component | ||
| 362 | itself accompanies the executable. | ||
| 363 | </p> | ||
| 364 | |||
| 365 | <p> | ||
| 366 | If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering | ||
| 367 | access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent | ||
| 368 | access to copy the source code from the same place counts as | ||
| 369 | distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not | ||
| 370 | compelled to copy the source along with the object code. | ||
| 371 | </p> | ||
| 372 | |||
| 373 | <a name="section4"></a><p> | ||
| 374 | <strong>4.</strong> | ||
| 375 | You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program | ||
| 376 | except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt | ||
| 377 | otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is | ||
| 378 | void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. | ||
| 379 | However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under | ||
| 380 | this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such | ||
| 381 | parties remain in full compliance. | ||
| 382 | </p> | ||
| 383 | |||
| 384 | <a name="section5"></a><p> | ||
| 385 | <strong>5.</strong> | ||
| 386 | You are not required to accept this License, since you have not | ||
| 387 | signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or | ||
| 388 | distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are | ||
| 389 | prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by | ||
| 390 | modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the | ||
| 391 | Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and | ||
| 392 | all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying | ||
| 393 | the Program or works based on it. | ||
| 394 | </p> | ||
| 395 | |||
| 396 | <a name="section6"></a><p> | ||
| 397 | <strong>6.</strong> | ||
| 398 | Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the | ||
| 399 | Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the | ||
| 400 | original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to | ||
| 401 | these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further | ||
| 402 | restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. | ||
| 403 | You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to | ||
| 404 | this License. | ||

| 408 | <strong>7.</strong> | ||
| 409 | If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent | ||
| 410 | infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), | ||
| 411 | conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or | ||
| 412 | otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not | ||
| 413 | excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot | ||
| 414 | distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this | ||
| 415 | License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you | ||
| 416 | may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent | ||
| 417 | license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by | ||
| 418 | all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then | ||
| 419 | the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to | ||
| 420 | refrain entirely from distribution of the Program. | ||
| 421 | </p> | ||

| 424 | If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under | ||
| 425 | any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to | ||

| 427 | circumstances. | ||

| 429 | |||
| 430 | <p> | ||
| 431 | It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any | ||
| 432 | patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any | ||
| 433 | such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the | ||
| 434 | integrity of the free software distribution system, which is | ||
| 435 | implemented by public license practices. Many people have made | ||
| 436 | generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed | ||
| 437 | through that system in reliance on consistent application of that | ||
| 438 | system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing | ||
| 439 | to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot | ||
| 440 | impose that choice. | ||
| 441 | </p> | ||
| 442 | |||
| 443 | <p> | ||
| 444 | This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to | ||
| 445 | be a consequence of the rest of this License. | ||

| 449 | <strong>8.</strong> | ||
| 450 | If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in | ||
| 451 | certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the | ||
| 452 | original copyright holder who places the Program under this License | ||
| 453 | may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding | ||
| 454 | those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among | ||
| 455 | countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates | ||
| 456 | the limitation as if written in the body of this License. | ||

| 461 | The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions | ||
| 462 | of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will | ||
| 463 | be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to | ||
| 464 | address new problems or concerns. | ||
| 465 | </p> | ||
| 466 | |||
| 467 | <p> | ||
| 468 | Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program | ||
| 469 | specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any | ||
| 470 | later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions | ||
| 471 | either of that version or of any later version published by the Free | ||
| 472 | Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of | ||
| 473 | this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software | ||
| 474 | Foundation. | ||

| 479 | If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free | ||
| 480 | programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author | ||
| 481 | to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free | ||
| 482 | Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes | ||
| 483 | make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals | ||
| 484 | of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and | ||
| 485 | of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally. | ||

| 493 | FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN | ||
| 494 | OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES | ||

| 497 | MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS | ||
| 498 | TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE | ||

| 500 | REPAIR OR CORRECTION. | ||

| 505 | IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING | ||
| 506 | WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR | ||
| 507 | REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, | ||
| 508 | INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING | ||

| 511 | YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER | ||

| 520 | <p> | ||
| 521 | If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest | ||
| 522 | possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it | ||
| 523 | free software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms. | ||
| 524 | </p> | ||
| 525 | |||
| 526 | <p> | ||
| 527 | To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest | ||
| 528 | to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively | ||
| 529 | convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least | ||
| 530 | the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found. | ||

| 578 | You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your | ||
