Recently I found that mt76/7615 project has finished a lot，so I want to try to build this on OpenWRT for phicomm K2P,which runs on linux 4.14.109. The default openwrt mt76 makefile just includes mt7603 mt76x2 etc.So how should I edit the default makefile to compile mt7615 drivers?
https://github.com/LorenzoBianconi/mt76/tree/mt7615 this is the link to mt76/7615 project
solved.This is the file content.

after complied the drivers how to use in current build.
can you teach me ?
Thanks
Good job :)! Is WiFi working on both 5ghz and 2.4ghz? How's performance and stability on both bands? Really curious about that device myself! Might be a nice upgrade over my current mt7602/mt7612 based router.
Sorry，It dint't work properly.I just could connet to it but no ip address.It seems that the driver didn’t read eeprom info
Is this a reference to https://lwn.net/ml/linux-wireless/cover.1553607739.git.ryder.lee@mediatek.com/ to add support for MediaTek MT7615 wireless chipsets? Which kernel version is that patch for?
It has been merged into mainline v5.2.
I hope this is a dumb question. Does this mean all those 7615 devices are candidates for future openwrt support once it moves to a 5.1+ kernel?
Yes…
…and no, OpenWrt doesn't use the wireless subsystem of the base kernel, but employs backports instead, which are generally newer than the base kernel (e.g. 4.19 based backports instead of the 4.14 LTS kernel used by all OpenWrt targets at the moment).
The situation for mt76 in particular is a bit special as well, given that its primary author is an OpenWrt developer who is regularly updating the mt76 (semi-) independently of the backports provided wireless subsystem underneath.
In other words, it's even newer than the v4.19 based backports - but at this moment not (yet) new enough for mt7615 support.
In short, no mt7615 isn't supported in OpenWrt yet, but it's just a matter of time and very likely to happen (significantly) before OpenWrt switches to kernel v5.2. Don't expect the drivers to be top notch quality on day 1 though, it usually takes a while for new drivers to stabilize, for bugs to be found and performance to be tweaked.
Have you solved this problem?
