While looking through the source, I realised there was a target named bmips and another target named bcm63xx. I would've presumed from the target descriptions that bcm63xx was only for those chips, with a DSL core, and bmips covered all others (namely, bcm33xx with DOCSIS modem).
Then I realised the bcm3368 is under the bcm63xx target? What's the deal with that? And there's also some DTS files duplicated under both targets?
Thank you for the response. I should probably have checked git before posting.
Am I also correct in presuming that bcm63xx (and bcm47xx) will be deprecated sooner rather than later, and therefore any new devices should be added under the new bmips target instead?
I'm trying to port OpenWRT to an unsupported device, should I target bcm63xx or bmips? I can see that the bcm63xx does not support external mdio mux, which is needed.
How can I find out if something (in the documentation, if any) in the BMIPS works? E.g. PCIe, MDIO?
bmips got the source-only flag removed recently. Not sure when buildbot will pick this up or when snapshot images appear though. Someone of this thread in the know?
I guess it can be a manual buildbot config after a monthly meeting or waiting for an essential issue
