Gets the reset reason on AMD systems

README.md

AMDResetStatus

This is a simple Windows exe to get the reset reason register on AMD systems.

The PawnIO driver is required to be installed, and you will need the AMDReset PawnIO module too.

Although looking at the GPL 2 of YAFI, I'm not sure if it'd be legal to redistribute the official PawnIO build with it, you'd probably need to ask a lawyer if you wanted to do that, or just make a license exception. However with all versions of PawnIO being actually the same code, virtually any combination works in practice, that is, you can say you used the LGPL 2.1 converted to GPL 2 for implementing the YAFI-side, but it happens to work with the proprietary one as well. If the end user combined proprietary PawnIO with GPL 2 YAFI on their machine, that's perfectly fine for them, as all these licenses only care about distributing works.

The licensing is complex like this exactly to allow anything from proprietary to GPL to use PawnIO as long as they don't wish to dig themselves into a hole with redistribution concerns. It also retains some leverage to me, as if someone forks PawnIO for free they must follow the GPL and open source every Pawn module, or they can contact me to custom license it if they don't want to support the OSS community.

Yeah that's fine, I have no intention of redistributing PawnIO with it, a download link to pawnio.eu is what I've doing. It was just 'AMDResetStatus.zip' I made without thinking things though.

That is unless 'official PawnIO build' includes the signed modules by themselves.

Oh cool, I guess the "System Library" loophole also works, since PawnIO isn't being included.
