I'm reviewing dnsperf package - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=467798. Licence of code is written only in source code itself:

Assuming _all_ the source files carry the notice, this is not a problem, things become a bit murkier when some files are missing the notice, but usually you can assume they just forgot to add it to those files. (What _is_ a problem, though, is when some sources include some conflicting or non-Free license.)

What should be correct licence tag? The licence is BSD compatible so can I recommend BSD licence tag?

This sounds like a variant of the MIT X11 license, so it should be: License: MIT
