I don’t know really how to proceed with my -10mp?
They way I am going now is to have a (for now a public) OpenWRT fork for this device on my flygarn12 GitHub account.
Step 1. is to copy the current -10p device so the -10mp has its own dts base file. I have already done this at round1 on a clone but I realized a fork instead of clone of the parent OpenWRT was better to work with when pulling changes from the parent to my fork. So I have to redo this step 1.
But then we have this patch for the buttons and also the poe patch. I surely pretty easy can install these on my personal device fork. But it feels more meaningful that these two patches gets in the actual OpenWRT system instead of everyone interested is going to build their own setup of the same hardware but sooner or later on a little different way?
Older patches will probably also get more harder to install for example when the Realtek was splitted in four a while ago. After that the old file names doesn’t work.
Do you think I should make a pull request for the dgs-1210-10mp device to the real OpenWRT project?
-10mp has built in mains PSU and 130W PoE instead of -10p 54V DC adaptor and 65W PoE.
Or should I wait until the poe and the button patch is included in OpenWRT or not do a pull request at all and only run it on my fork?
