I'm curious on how openwrt.org is doing release builts.
Considering, that there a many different router models for a specific
archtecture (like ar71xx). Some devices need different drivers (USB, for
example), some are limited in size (4mb flash).
How does OpenWRT take care of these specifics while doing release builds?
Is there a set of "default" packages for each single devices? If so, how
is it taken into account while doing release builds?
openwrt has a configure menu very similar to that used when building a
linux kernel.
You must select the specific model you want to create a release for,
then the config system will choose default packages and default kernel
config. You can then further customize the selections.
So yes, the short answer is that there is a predefined config for each
model that is supported.
Click on the "buildroot" link on the home page of wiki.openwrt.org for
more information.
