Build success but image not created

Hello, I want to install OpenWRT on my Linksys EA9500 router. And this is first time I want to build it by myself.
This is my router 's data page: https://openwrt.org/toh/hwdata/linksys/linksys_ea9500_v1

I followed these steps:
https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-developer/quickstart-build-images

I have tried "default" and "custom" config, both 18 & 19 branch.
I can not found "ea9500" profile, but only "ea6500".

So I try to build it with this default profile:

Target System (Broadcom BCM47xx/53xx (ARM))  --->
Target Profile (Broadcom SoC, BCM43xx WiFi (b43, brcmfmac, default))  --->

And finally I got these: (bin/targets/bcm53xx/generic)

There is no "generic" image exists.
I don't know what to do now.

After some search, I found this article say how to flash, and he provide some pre-built image, why I can't success like him?

I did not select any extra package at all, the result is only 8MB, so not out-of-space issue.
My result dir is very different with any other people's build, why is that?
Did I do something wrong?

Try the image builder/SDK from the snapshots/master branch, not from 18/19 branches.

Tried it today, master branch is still same problem.

OK, I must run make distclean before switch to another branch.

18 branch did not work, but master branch is ok.

But I must comment out other targets than EA9500, otherwise target/linux install will fail when generating image for other model.

Please apply this patch to trunk: Fix EA9500 Build
And then copy and replace your .config: config.seed
