Hi All,
I know that what I say usually is ignored :D But I like to flood this ml with stupid(?) ideas. The actual OpenWRT considers kernels 2.6.X.Y and 2.6.X.(Y+1) as a very different kernels downloading the full sources for both. I think that this is not a good approach because this is time and band expensive. An idea should be to download the full sources 2.6.X kernels and just the patches 2.6.X.1, 2.6.X.2, ... 2.6.X.Y to cover the kernels with version like 2.6.X.Y. The result will be a gain in terms of band and time utilization. I think that to achieve this the download perl and make scripts should be made more smart than actual versions These optimizations should be applied also to gcc and uclibc and any other package that provides diff between versions. Thanks a lot for your comments. luigi http://repo.or.cz/w/openwrt_comio.git -- ______ Luigi Mantellini .'______'. R&D - Software (.' '.) Industrie Dial Face S.p.A.
