This code has no open source license. Please add a license, like MIT or Apache 2.0

GNU General Public Licence would cover everything as the nxp fusion is more permissive

GPL requires all binaries to have their source code disclosed, which makes it practically impossible for use with proprietary libraries. If it is possible to use a permissive license like MIT or Apache 2.0, it would be preferred

no because the existing code for fusion is GPL, we cannot relicense it, check each CPP file for licensing

Is this a modification of that work or does it merely depend on it via a dependency? If it is merely a dependency, this work can be licensed permissively and the final binary will still be GPL due to the dependency
