This uses the headers as currently recommended by the FSF: https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html#license-notices

Pull request overview

This PR updates the repository’s licensing to GPLv3 by adding the full GPLv3 license text and aligning existing source file license headers with the FSF-recommended GPLv3 notice format.

Changes:

  • Add a top-level LICENSE file containing the GNU GPLv3 text.
  • Update license headers across core packages (wolfSSL, wolfx509, wolftls), tests, handles, and examples to reference GPLv3 (or later) and the canonical GNU licenses URL.
