Porting guide ar71xx to ath79?

For Developers
874

FYI

I have created a new target page to reflect the status of ar71xx->ath79 migration:
https://openwrt.org/docs/techref/targets/ar71xx-ath79 - shows ar71xx-ath79 only (=migrated devices)

The already existing pages for ar71xx + ath79 have been modified to show both, ar71xx + ath79:
https://openwrt.org/docs/techref/targets/ar71xx - shows ath79 + ar71xx
https://openwrt.org/docs/techref/targets/ath79 - shows ath79 + ar71xx

I updated the status of the devices listed further above accordingly.

For already existing (ar71xx-) devices, you can update the status yourself by editing the respective dataentry:

  • Set target = ath79 → devices with this target can be found only in ath79
  • Set target = ar71xx-ath79 → devices with this target can be found in both, ar71xx and ath79
  • Set Unsupported functions = ath79 WIP → incomplete ath79 migration; work in progress
  • Set Unsupported functions = <empty> → 100% complete ath79 migration; no manual adjustment of configuration necessary when migrating from ar71xx to ath79
