Below is the final language from the OFA Board motion to approve release of v3.18-3, and the text to be put in the LICENSE file.
This motion passed unanimously via an email vote.
> Motion:
>
>> The OFA accepts the nature of Linux kernel space code as GPLv2 and user space as dual-licensed (GPLv2 and BSD) and approves the release of OFED 3.18-3 with the following text included in the LICENSE text file in OFED project root.
>>
>> "OFED is distributed as a source tarball and includes both user space and Linux kernel space code. The Linux kernel space code contains some dual-licensed files and some GPLv2-only files, resulting in a kernel space product that is licensed GPLv2. All user space code, however, is dual licensed (GPLv2 and BSD).”
