Changes from 5.4 to 5.10:
-------------------------
- patches from 5.4 are all upstream for 5.10 execpt for
0004-PCI-add-quirk-for-Gateworks-PLX-PEX860x-switch-with-.patch
- disable block device data integrity (DIF/DIX/T10) in default config
(CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INTEGRITY)
This feature is only supported by:
- Enterprise SAS/SCSI HBAs and Disks
- Software raid
- NVMEs with metadata capabilities (most don't have this)
None of which are part of any octeontx boards.
- arm64 TEXT_OFFSET (0x80000) has been removed after 5.4
This will break Uimages with kernel load addresses that aren't 2MiB
aligned any longer. Resulting in the kernel silently fail to boot.
For Gatworks newport boards for example, the uimage kernel load
and execute address is 0x20080000. These need to be changed to
0x20000000 when running kernels beyond 5.4.
Tested-on: Gateworks Newport GW64xx

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 -ato obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default -
Run
./scripts/feeds install -ato install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/ -
Run
make menuconfigto select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages. -
Run
maketo 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.
-
LuCI Web Interface: Modern and modular interface to control the device via a web browser.
-
OpenWrt Packages: Community repository of ported packages.
-
