So basically kernel team repeatedly breaking the driver is how they want to bludgeon nVidia into giving them all their code and forcing them into supporting their own APIs?

Seems like petty behaviour to break users hardware just because you disagree with driver licensing.

Yes, so they stop getting away with license shenanigans? The kernel is GPL, this surely isn’t hard to understand for Nvidia lawyers.

They closed a loophole that allowed proprietary modules to access GPL only functionality.
