Hi! For a better user-experience it would be nice have some kind of aliasing of boards, i.e. adding extra machtypes and adding several *_MACHINE( ... ) calls so /proc/cpuinfo shows what is on the sticker on case and openwrt can identify the actual device in userspace. This is an advantage as board-setup code can often be shared between devices actually using the same board but might yet differ a bit (usb populated?, vendor-firmware sysupgrade image format, ...) I agree that poluting machtypes where they are scarce and/or officially maintained doesn't make sense, but that isn't the case on various MISP-targets as far as I can judge. (In other words: If you agree, I'll post patches adding machtypes for some ar71xx and ramips based devices as well as image Makefile stuff for them)
