The crypto engine in Armada 370 SoCs is currently broken. It can be checked installing the required packages for testing openssl with hw acceleration: opkg install openssl-util opkg install kmod-cryptodev opkg install libopenssl-devcrypto After configuring /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf to let openssl use the crypto engine for digest operations, and performing some checksums.. md5sum 10M-file.bin openssl md5 10M-file.bin ...we can see they don't match. There might be an alignment or size constraint issue caused by the idle-sram area. Use the whole crypto sram and disable the idle-sram area to fix it. Also disable the idle support by adding the broken-idle property to prevent accessing the disabled idle-sram. We don't care about disabling the idle support since it is already broken in Armada 370 causing a huge performance loss because it disables permanently the L2 cache. This was reported in the Openwrt forum and elsewhere by Debian users with different board models.

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.

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.
