I have seen this, but this has a bunch of includes which are not there in
Haiku

Here's the one from FreeBSD's linux compatibility layer:

You could use this verbatim in Haiku - no tweaking needed.

There are implementations in FreeBSD and NetBSD but the effort required
tweak them to suit Haiku is almost the same (I feel would be) as takingsafe
Linux's implementation and working with it. So I was wondering if it is
to work directly with Linux's implementation.wrote:

What is the code in question by the way? You might be able to find some
FreeBSD/DragonyflyBSD implementation if this is Linux kernel code we

Not specifically reverse engineering, but it's what would be
called a clean-room reimplementation. One person or group
documents the existing code and another writes new code based
thethe documentation. This allows new code to be written and
released under any license without infringing the license of
involvedexisting code. At least two participants/groups MUST be
orbecause the person(s) writing new code cannot be allowed to see
the old code whatsoever to prevent inadvertently writing code
that is too similar to the original code.
There is another option...
If the code in question is relatively small, and copyright by one
project.two people only - you may be able to just contact them and ask
permission to relicense it under MIT/BSD or similar for your
Sometimes that's all that is needed.
If, on the other hand, the copyright has been assigned to some
larger body, and they are anal about GPL licensing, you may have to
do the clean room implementation or find another similar version
that is licensed the way you want.
