Hello schk00, in short - the whole OpenWrt is based on OpenWrt buildroot - a set of patches, Makefiles and configure files. Those elements just says how to compile toolchain for OpenWrt and how to compile&build the whole OpenWrt image by compiled toolchain. There's no such kernel source codes, just patches and Makefiles which defines what should be in kernel config, how should compiler compile it, what should be included in OpenWrt image etc.. I would suggest to explore the whole OpenWrt platform first. Also the whole source codes and existing packages are good way to understand how OpenWrt works. Take a look at buildroot documentation: (quite outdated, but minor things have been changed) - http://downloads.openwrt.org/docs/buildroot-documentation.html (Developing section) - http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/start There are several macro definitions which should be used for package creation - Build/Configure, Build/Compile, Build/InstallDev, {Package,KernelPackage}/name/install. Those are a bit descriptive, what those really does. Take a look at existing packages, it really helps a lot! Also, please take a look at: (Creating packages for kernel modules) - http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/devel/packages This wiki article shows the exact way how to create a kernel package in both ways - the module from within the kernel source code or third-party kernel module. Happy experimenting and discovering OpenWrt world! ~ Jiri _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
