module license taints kernel.



Hi All

I have written kernel module (File System Driver).

When i tried to insert kernel Module i am getting

"module license taints kernel."

Since i am NOT specifying 'GPL'. So it is giving.

I want to know what happens if i use NON-VERSION under LInux or can I
use. or If i want to use NON-GPL what conditions i have to meet.

Thanks & Regards
Guru
