Hi all, Nudged by some customers, I've been looking at how to add support for our i.MX6-based boards to OpenWRT to make their lives easier, and have some questions.
U-Boot seems relatively simple for our Nitrogen6X and SABRE Lite boards, which are supported directly by Main-line U-Boot by extending the support currently in place for Wandboards. I sent patches for that a moment ago. I'm not quite sure what to do with the kernel. There is support for i.MX6, but it appears to be based on 3.10, and though we expect to have a 3.10 kernel version in the coming weeks for our i.MX6Q (quad-core) boards, I wouldn't recommend it for typical applications. Our "production ready" kernel version is based on 3.0.35, and I'm not sure whether to re-factor things in the target/linux/imx6/ directory or to simply create a "target/linux/boundary/" directory. We're hoping to point at our Github repository for the kernel sources, and I didn't see any references to other git repositories in the target/linux/ tree. Is there OpenWRT policy regarding use of main-line? Any guidance is appreciated.
