Thanks for looking into libMali.so issue.
Dear bugficks,
Thank you for your interest in our product.
For < libSDAL.so > request, we have done our internal review with
developer and license members.
This was an oversight and we do apologize for this error.
The only source code affected that was re-used from ffmpeg is tsmuxenc.c
and tsmuxenc.h.
As like our previous mail, the affected source code, other needed object
http://opensource.samsung.com/ -> TV&VIDEO -> libSDAL.zip
You can make the whole libSDAL.so without any difficulties.
Other model's attected code that was re-used from ffmpeg will be
uploaded in a few days.
And < libMALI.so >, we are currently reviewing internally.
We can reply for our inspection result within next week.
Thank you for your patience in advance.
Kindly regards,
Samsung Visual Display Division's Opensource team.
Today Samsung re-uploaded libSDAL.zip. Archive now contains LGPL-2.1.txt
and they've added proper license headers to tsmuxenc.h/.c.
It's still not a full source release though.
For completeness I've added my last mail and their response below.

Subject:Re: [Notification from Samsung Open Source Release Center]
Hello,
I finally got feedback from gpl-violations.org.
I'm sorry to inform you that your libSDAL release is not sufficient.
Samsung is required to release full source code for libSDAL.
https://www.ffmpeg.org/legal.html
-no dynamic linking
-not using lib FFmpeg but only copied some functions/structures.
-you even removed FFmpeg license from tsmuxenc.h/.c
Hence to conform with LGPL Samsung has to release complete source code.
Kind Regards,
-bugficks
