Michael Pratt a58cb22bbe ath79: adjust ath79/tiny Senao APs to 4k blocksize 
ath79/tiny kernel config has
CONFIG_MTD_SPI_NOR_USE_4K_SECTORS=y
from commit
05d35403b2

Because of this, these changes are required for 2 reasons:

1.

Senao devices in ath79/tiny
with a 'failsafe' partition and the tar.gz sysupgrade platform
and a flash chip that supports 4k sectors
will fail to reboot to openwrt after a sysupgrade.

the stored checksum is made with the 64k blocksize length
of the image to be flashed,
and the actual checksum changes after flashing due to JFFS2 space
being formatted within the length of the rootfs from the image

example:
0x440000 length of kernel + rootfs (from sysupgrade.bin)
0x439000 offset of rootfs_data (from kernel log)

2.

for boards with flash chips that support 4k sectors:
saving configuration over sysupgrade is not possible
because sysupgrade.tgz is appended at a 64k boundary
and the mtd parser starts JFFS2 at a 4k boundary.

for boards with flash chips that do not support 4k sectors:
partitioning with 4k boundaries causes a boot loop
from the mtd parser not finding kernel and rootfs.

Also:

Some of the Senao boards that belong in ath79/tiny,
for example ENH202,
have a flash chip that does not support 4k sectors
(no SECT_4K symbol in upstream source).

Because of this, partitioning must be different for these devices
depending on the flash chip model detected by the kernel.

Therefore:

this creates 2 DTSI files
to replace the single one with 64k partitioning
for 4k and 64k partitioning respectively.

README.md

OpenWrt logo

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

  1. Run ./scripts/feeds update -a to obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default

  2. Run ./scripts/feeds install -a to install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/

  3. Run make menuconfig to select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages.

  4. 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.
