License issues need to be fixed before 1.6 release

[roywei]

I am creating this issue to be tracked and resolved before next release according to the discussion on @general during 1.5.0 release:
https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-general/201907.mbox/%3CCAMbkE7T6wP6ph6qgDkmKfC6wZ0Cj7ajBbHyE-h-67%3DUKDCka0g%40mail.gmail.com%3E

1. Mention original license for ONNX export module and FindJeMalloc, as we have modified the code and licensed under ASF, need to mention the original license as well

Our licenses: ONNX Export Module and FindJeMalloc.cmake,
ONNX Export original: https://github.com/NVIDIA/mxnet_to_onnx/blob/master/LICENSE
FindJeMalloc original: https://github.com/STEllAR-GROUP/hpx/blob/master/cmake/FindJemalloc.cmake

2. Following licenses are missing, need to be added, they are all permissive licenses

• /3rdparty/onnx-tensorrt/third_party/onnx/third_party/pybind11/tools/FindPythonLibsNew.cmake
• /src/operator/contrib/erfinv-inl.h
• /3rdparty/nvidia_cub/test/mersenne.h
• /3rdparty/onnx-tensorrt/third_party/onnx/third_party/pybind11/tools/FindEigen3.cmake
• /3rdparty/onnx-tensorrt/third_party/onnx/tools/protoc-gen-mypy.py
• /src/operator/special_functions-inl.h
• /3rdparty/tvm/3rdparty/rang/LICENSE

Following are nonpermissive license issues tracked separately:

3. Cub license issue tracked separately here; Cub license issue  #15569

4. MKLDNN license issue tracked remove mkl blas lincense #15544

5. Pybind license issue Pybind11 license issue from onnx tensorrt #15547

6. Lastly, we have images in our source release, we need to identify and add their license or replace them.

• ./contrib/clojure-package/examples/infer/objectdetector/images/marcel.jpg
• ./contrib/clojure-package/test/test-images/Pug-Cookie.jpg
• ./contrib/clojure-package/test/test-images/kitten.jpg
• ./julia/examples/imagenet/ijulia-pretrained-predict/cat.png

more details on general list

@Roshrini any idea why we have a different ONNX export module license than the one on NVIDIA? maybe they changed the license after we used it?

---

update, since we modified the original code, so it should be licensed under ASF, we just need to mention the original license as well.

We will update MKL-DNN 1.0 in the next release and no MKLML is needed again.

@roywei do you happen to know any updates for these license issues?

[roywei]

@gigasquid @adc17 @iblis17 could you help replace the images mentioned in 6 in the issue? We would like to fix them for 1.5.1 release.
Thanks!

[iblislin]

well, I'm not sure the source of ./julia/examples/imagenet/ijulia-pretrained-predict/cat.png.
@pluskid Can you recall that ?

[gigasquid]

License issues have been fixed for the Clojure package and 1.5 branch - see #15828 for details

[roywei]

Closing as we have open issue tracking the remaining pybind and cub license. everything else is resolved.
