| 3 | 2 | Pau Escrich | This howto explains how to port a new device to the qMp firmware generator. It is required to have a UNIX based system with GNU-Make intalled. |
| 4 | 1 | Pau Escrich | |
| 5 | * Get qmpfw (Firmware generator) |
||
| 6 | <pre> |
||
| 7 | git clone git://qmp.cat/qmpfw.git |
||
| 8 | </pre> |
||
| 9 | 4 | Roger Pueyo Centelles | Or if you have developer access use, instead: |
| 10 | <pre> |
||
| 11 | git clone gitolite@qmp.cat:qmpfw.git |
||
| 12 | </pre> |
||
| 13 | |||
| 14 | 1 | Pau Escrich | |
| 15 | * Execute menuconfig to checkout sources and launch the OpenWRT menuconfig |
||
| 16 | <pre> |
||
| 17 | make T=NEW_DEVICE_NAME menuconfig |
||
| 18 | </pre> |
||
| 19 | |||
| 20 | * Then enable/disable the desired options in menuconfig (remember to enable base/qmp-small-node or base/qmp-big-node) |
||
| 21 | |||
| 22 | * Exit and save |
||
| 23 | |||
| 24 | * Compile the sources |
||
| 25 | <pre> |
||
| 26 | make T=NEW_DEVICE_NAME build |
||
| 27 | </pre> |
||
| 28 | |||
| 29 | 6 | Roger Pueyo Centelles | > If compilation suceeds you will get an error in the last step (when trying to copy the output binaries into images/ directory). |
| 30 | 1 | Pau Escrich | > Don't worry, identify the name of the output binary: ls build/NEW_DEVICE_NAME/bin/*/ |
| 31 | > Then modify targets.mk with some text editor, and add the new entry for your device as shown in the next example for Nanostation M5 |
||
| 32 | > |
||
| 33 | > <pre> |
||
| 34 | 7 | Roger Pueyo Centelles | ifeq ($(T),nsm5) |
| 35 | 1 | Pau Escrich | NAME:=NanoStation M5 |
| 36 | ARCH:=ar71xx |
||
| 37 | IMAGE:=bin/$(ARCH)/openwrt-ar71xx-ubnt-nano-m-squashfs-factory.bin |
||
| 38 | SYSUPGRADE:=bin/$(ARCH)/openwrt-ar71xx-ubnt-nano-m-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin |
||
| 39 | 7 | Roger Pueyo Centelles | endif |
| 40 | 1 | Pau Escrich | </pre> |
| 41 | |||
| 42 | * Compile again |
||
| 43 | <pre> |
||
| 44 | make T=NEW_DEVICE_NAME build |
||
| 45 | </pre> |
||
| 46 | |||
| 47 | * If this time all works fine, copy the temporal config files |
||
| 48 | <pre> |
||
| 49 | cp -rf build/configs/NEW_DEVICE_NAME configs/ |
||
| 50 | </pre> |
||
| 51 | |||
| 52 | * Then prepare the patch |
||
| 53 | <pre> |
||
| 54 | git add configs/NEW_DEVICE_NAME |
||
| 55 | git add targets.mk |
||
| 56 | git commit -m 'Support for new device NEW_DEVICE_NAME' |
||
| 57 | git diff > ../NEW_DEVICE_NAME.patch |
||
| 58 | </pre> |
||
| 59 | And send it to the developers list: qmp-dev@mail.qmp.cat |
