Grommish reported the dreaded build error that happend with 5.4 since the kernel didn't have the cgpio v2 interface. His reason for the removed 5.4 was that the octeon target had a memory leak issue, so he had to backport the removed 5.4 kernel for his tests. Chen Minqiang chimed in and noted that no matter what (i.e. @TARGET_x86 in depends) didn't prevent the package from being build on other targets. From what I can tell, the reason for this was that +nu801 meant that kmod-meraki-mx100 pulled in an unconditional dependency as part of to the kernel build. |scripts/package-metadata.pl mk tmp/.packageinfo | |$(curdir)/kernel/linux/compile += $(curdir)/firmware/linux-firmware/compile \ | $(curdir)/firmware/prism54-firmware/compile \ | $(curdir)/kernel/gpio-button-hotplug/compile \ | >>> $(curdir)/system/gpio-cdev/nu801/compile <<< change this by making the dependency conditional on the meraki-mx100 module itself. Note that the nu801 enables/sets the KCONFIG for the cgpio v2 interface itself, since the userspace program and not the kernel meraki-mx100 relies on it.

OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned.
Sunshine!
Development
To build your own firmware you need a GNU/Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack of a case sensitive file system.
Requirements
You need the following tools to compile OpenWrt, the package names vary between distributions. A complete list with distribution specific packages is found in the Build System Setup documentation.
binutils bzip2 diff find flex gawk gcc-6+ getopt grep install libc-dev libz-dev
make4.1+ perl python3.6+ rsync subversion unzip which
Quickstart
-
Run
./scripts/feeds update -a
to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default -
Run
./scripts/feeds install -a
to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/ -
Run
make menuconfig
to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages. -
Run
make
to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the GNU/Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system.
Related Repositories
The main repository uses multiple sub-repositories to manage packages of
different categories. All packages are installed via the OpenWrt package
manager called opkg
. If you're looking to develop the web interface or port
packages to OpenWrt, please find the fitting repository below.
