# Add board name to ALLWIFIBOARDS
# Place files in this directory as board-<devicename>.<qca4019|qca9888|qca9889|qca9984|qca99x0|ipq8074>
# Add $(eval $(call generate-ipq-wifi-package,<devicename>,<display name>))
# To add local files for testing:
# 1. create a new directory in the ipq-wifi package directory called "files".
# 2. place there the needed board files.
#
# To send a board file upstream:
# 1. create a pull request in https://github.com/openwrt/firmware_qca-wireless or
# send a patch to the mailing list adding the tag firmware/qca-wireless before
# the PATCH tag.
# 2. create a pull request in the main openwrt repository bumping the ipq-wifi
# package to the new version and adding the required lines to add the board file.
#
# Changes needed to the ipq-wifi Makefile:
# 1. Add board name to ALLWIFIBOARDS
# 2. Add $(eval $(call generate-ipq-wifi-package,<devicename>,<display name>))
#
# Board files should follow this name structure:
# board-<devicename>.<qca4019|qca9888|qca9889|qca9984|qca99x0|ipq8074>
