I had a quick look at the Illumos kernel files and it appears each file is licensed under only one of 4-clause BSD, APSL, or CDDL, depending on where it originated. Files from Boris Popov's original FreeBSD implementation have the 4-clause BSD license, followed by something like: /* * Copyright (c) 2008, 2010, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. * Portions Copyright (C) 2001 - 2013 Apple Inc. All rights reserved. * Copyright 2018 Nexenta Systems, Inc. All rights reserved. */ There are 28 BSD-licensed kernel files, 5 APSL, and 13 CDDL. I think that having an smbfs kernel module in the tree using a combination of those licenses is fine. (This isn't on behalf of core@ and of course due diligence needs to be done, but from a high level it seems reasonable.)
