As of upstream Linux commit 0fe1e96fef0a ("powerpc/pci: Prefer PCI
domain assignment via DT 'linux,pci-domain' and alias"), the PCIe
domain address is no longer numbered by the lowest 16 bits of the PCI
register address after a fallthrough. Instead of the fallthrough, the
enumeration process accepts the alias ID (as determined by
`of_alias_scan()`). This causes e.g.:
9000:00:00.0 PCI bridge: Freescale Semiconductor Inc P1020E (rev 11)
9000:01:00.0 Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros AR958x 802.11abgn ...
to become
0000:00:00.0 PCI bridge: Freescale Semiconductor Inc P1020E (rev 11)
0000:01:00.0 Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros AR958x 802.11abgn ...
... which then causes the sysfs path of the netdev to change,
invalidating the `wifi_device.path`s enumerated in
`/etc/config/wireless`.
One other solution might be to migrate the uci configuration, as was
done for mvebu in commit 0bd5aa89fcf2 ("mvebu: Migrate uci config to
new PCIe path"). However, there are concerns that the sysfs path will
change once again once some upstream patches[^2][^3] are merged and
backported (and `CONFIG_PPC_PCI_BUS_NUM_DOMAIN_DEPENDENT` is enabled).
Instead, remove the aliases and allow the fallthrough to continue for
now. We will provide a migration in a later release.
This was first reported as a Github issue[^1].

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.
gcc binutils bzip2 flex python3 perl make find grep diff unzip gawk getopt
subversion libz-dev libc-dev rsync 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.
