Hi Rui, 1. X64 is too broad to cover all platform varieties. 2. Intel C3000 is a Network SoC, with integration of QAT (QuickAssist engine for crypto & compression) and NICs in addition to x86. More expandability with richer I/O. 3. At device level, C3000 h/w design and ODM/OEM ecosystem are different from generic x86 platform like Core and Celeron. 4. C3000 support team is fully committed to enable technology innovation around OpenWRT ecosystem. 5. We want to keep some C3000 features on the subtarget. Some X86 openwrt is Soft-routing. We don't want our changes to affect these Soft-routing.

What makes it so special as to require a dedicated subtarget?
