Rtkmips rtl8198c help

I couldn't use the official repo as it lacks support for rtkmips, but I found https://github.com/choryuidentify/openwrt_rtk/tree/ubuntu-20-04 which in turns is a fork of https://github.com/cgoder/openwrt_rtk to make it compile on Ubuntu 20.04.

That's OpenWrt 14.07. It's pretty old, nevertheless I'd like to keep it updated with security fixes and maybe new features, but I have no idea how to update it. The repository isn't updated in 5 years except for build fixes.

Did you contact (either of) its maintainer(s)?

rtl8198c has never been supported by OpenWrt and given the typical system specifications (2/8 or maybe 2/16) it's never going to be supported either. Check "lexra" as search term for further background information.

Some initial work for that target started here:

هل يمكنك مشاركة مستودع openwrt أو ملف التصحيح لدعم مجموعة الشرائح هذه في OpenWRT 21.02؟ شكرًا لك
can you share the openwrt repository or patch file to support this chipset in OpenWRT 21.02 ? thank you
