maybe we can add a flag "PENDING" if there is a PR already in progress to add gluon support
How can I add the Gluon flag to a device?
I tried editing the data entry, but there is no gluon-support option field in devices that have no such flag already. I tried to add the broken flag here: https://openwrt.org/toh/hwdata/netgear/netgear_wnr2200_v3
Those are all supported devices (and targets) with broken Flag:

Normally you would edit dataentries via the lower LEFT edit button below the dataentry.
However, since the datafield for Gluon support is not implemented in all dataentries, this won't work.
Instead of the standard way of editing a dataentry (lower LEFT edit button), you have to edit the complete dataentry page via the edit button on the upper right edge of the page and add the datafield manually above the Target datafield:
Once that is done, you can edit the dataentry via the lower left edit button.
could you add "unknown" to all dataentries where it is missing with a script? that would make it easyer for more unexperienced wiki users to add devices.
I added all broken flags from the list above.
FYI - I adjusted the filter in https://openwrt.org/toh/views/toh_gluon_supported a bit and set it to
filter : Gluon support!=
This allows for filtering via the dynfilters (the white boxes on top of the columns).
Now the option "gluon support" can be edited via the "edit" button at the bottom of a details page too with input fields now.
But devices that are missing the line
Gluon gluon_support : Yes # Yes, No, Broken, unknown
don't have the input field to add this.
I guess all other devices would need this line to be added now:
Gluon gluon_support : unknown # Yes, No, Broken, unknown
Is there a default template, that is used for new devices? I couldn't find one, seems like hardcoded. But I added it to the example at https://openwrt.org/meta/template_dataentry_background
Right. Will be done with the next release update of the dataentries.
Until then, you know how to add this to the dataentries, should there be the need for doing so.
@rubo77 What would be the default value for all devices which currently have no "Gluon supported" datafield? I guess "No" would be it.
Background: I'm working on updating the dataentries to 19.07, and while at it, I add this datafield to all dataentries. I want to make sure I fill this datafield correctly.
I think the best default value would be "unknown" for all targets, supported by gluon (which are ar71xx-generic ar71xx-tiny ar71xx-nand brcm2708-bcm2708 brcm2708-bcm2709 ramips-mt7621 x86-generic x86-geode x86-64 ramips-mt7620 ramips-mt76x8 ramips-rt305x sunxi-cortexa7 ipq40xx
) and for all other targets there should be "No" as default
D'oh! I was impatient to get the dataentries updated and set all that are not Yes or Broken to No approx 1h ago. I hope this does not create any issues...
cant you just update now all that are "No" and one of the gluon targets to "unknown"?
(I think there were none, that were set manually to "No" before)
Update from No -> unknown is running right now.
The fact that this irons out a mistake I made when updating to 19.07 made the decision easier for me
Edit: Update done!
