Missing ar71xx devices in ath79 before 20.xx

19.07 will be the last release to include ar71xx. With 20.xx coming closer, I've made a stupid comparison to check which ar71xx devices are still missing in ath79. This has been created by taking the image names from ar71xx@19.07 and comparing them against ath79@master.

This should be taken as a last reminder to try to port one of those devices, so they still might have a chance to get into a 20.xx release.

The list is created by a stupid comparison, so it does not tell anything about whether it would actually make sense to port a particular device (I excluded all tiny devices, though). If you want to take action, please also check for existing forum thread or Pull Requests first.

Thanks for the reminder!

The ENS202EXT is in tiny target in 19.07 because of the 1536k kernel size limit.
Btw. its a 64 RAM, 16 flash device.
The kernel size limit was addressed by the LZMA Loader (OKLI method).

Almost ready, there is only a kernel trace at startup.

I would say it is ready actually. I have witnessed this kernel trace on two other boards that I flashed master on.

No one seems to be looking into it

I believe it was only these two boards, Ocedo koala and ENS202EXT that were moved to tiny despite being > 4 MB flash

However you might want to compare version 18 ar71xx generic to version 20 ath79 just to be sure

Anyway it seems the Ocedo koala was added to ath79 already, but he did not need OKLI to do it?

I'm in the middle of working on esr1750 which for some reason is missing from ar71xx in 19.07

perhaps also look through 18.06 for this list
