The CONFIG_NET_SWITCHDEV option is needed by CONFIG_DSA and some other
options. It is boolean, we have to compile it into the kernel it self.
Activate it for all targets in the generic configuration, it is already
activated for most of them. This allows to install DSA drivers as a
module.
On the ramips/mt7620 target the kernel would grown by 4.5kB.
For some small targets which do not support a DSA switch by default the
option is deactivated.

The act of attempting link at gen1 then trying to link at higher speeds
causes a hang with the specific PCIe switch used on the Gateworks Venice
boards. Work around this by linking at the highest speed first as is
common with all other PCI controller drivers.

Add support for Gateworks Venice imx8m family of boards:
- required kernel modules for on-board devices
- image generation
- initial network config
- sysupgrade support
The resulting compressed disk image
(bin/targets/imx/cortexa53/openwrt-imx-cortexa53-gateworks_venice-squashfs-img.gz)
can be installed on a Gateworks venice board via U-Boot:
u-boot=> tftpboot $loadaddr openwrt-imx-cortexa53-gateworks_venice-squashfs-img.gz && \
gzwrite mmc $dev $loadaddr $filesize
WARNING: this will overwrite any boot firmware on the eMMC user hardware
partition which if being used will brick your board requiring JTAG to
re-program boot firmware and recover
The compressed disk image contains the partition table and filesystems only
and that it is expected that boot firmware is installed properly on the
eMMC boot0 hardware partition. The easiest way to ensure this is to
use the Gateworks JTAG adapter/process to install the latest boot firmware
as follows from a Linux host:
wget http://dev.gateworks.com/jtag/jtag_usbv4
chmod +x jtag_usbv4
wget http://dev.gateworks.com/venice/images/firmware-venice-imx8mm.bin
sudo ./jtag_usbv4 -p firmware-venice-imx8mm.bin

Add imx8m support:
- add a cortexa53 subtarget to imx
- move ARCH and KERNELNAME to subtargets
- account for kernel modules that are not used for cortexa53
No device-specific targets or firmware images are created yet but all
imx8m* dtbs will be built.
enabling CONFIG_TARGET_ROOTFS_INITRAMFS results in
openwrt-imx-cortexa53-imx8m-initramfs-kernel.bin which has been
successfully booted on an imx8mm-evk using the following:
u-boot=> tftpboot $fdt_addr_r image-imx8mm-evk.dtb && \
tftpboot $kernel_addr_r openwrt-imx-cortexa53-imx8m-initramfs-kernel.bin && \
booti $kernel_addr_r - $fdt_addr_r

Add a ventana-img.gz compressed disk image to support

The Ventana bootloader expects the bootscript to be
boot/6x_bootscript-ventana therefore we must create a bootfs

Kernel setting CONFIG_IO_URING supports high-performance I/O for file
access and servers, generally for more performant platforms, and adds
~45 KB to kernel sizes. The need for this on less "beefy" devices is
questionable, as is the size cost considering many platforms have kernel
size limits which require tricky repartitioning if outgrown. The size
cost is also large relative to the ~180 KB bump expected between major
OpenWRT kernel releases.
No OpenWrt packages have hard dependencies on this; samba4 and mariadb
can take advantage if available (+KERNEL_IO_URING:liburing) but
otherwise build and work fine.
Since CONFIG_IO_URING is already managed via the KERNEL_IO_URING setting
in Config-kernel.in (default Y), remove it from those target configs
which unconditionally enable it, and update the defaults to enable it
conditionally only on more powerful 64-bit x86 and arm devices. It may
still be manually enabled as needed for high-performance custom builds.

According to commit 6f6c2fb321, AP6335 module used in PICO-PI-IMX7D works
only with firmware from `linux-firmware`. However, firmware from
`cypress-firmware` suite is directly from the chip company (Infineon) and
is actually newer.
Instead of dropping the firmware from Infineon, create a package named
`brcmfmac-firmware-4339-sdio`, and keep the Infineon version of
`cypress-firmware-4339-sdio` around.
This gives us devs the option to choose. Also, it means that
- packages `brcmfmac-firmware-*` uniformly come from `linux-firmware`
- packages `cypress-firmware-*` uniformly come from `cypress-firmware`
so hopefully brings more clarity.
