Default Re: ??:Re: Can I port 4.4BSD-Lite's TCP/IP protocol stack soure code to my own OS kernel which is GPL Licence?

If I compile my GPLed source files together with BSDLed source file to generate a binary OS kernel, is it permitted according to GPL's rule?
For example:
foo.c is GPLed
bar.c is BSDLed
I execute "gcc -o a.out foo.c bar.c"
So I can release a.out with source code of foo.c and bar.c. I will not get in trouble. Is it right?
