The biggest (and the only?) disadventage of this is obviously an increased image size. For mips74k the size of vmlinux goes up from 4186684 B to 4701436 B. Most devices use LZMA compressed kernel so probably more important is vmlinux.lzma size which goes up from 1342945 B to the 1508498 B. Still this isn't something that should stop target kernel bump. There are various adventages of kernel 4.14. If kernel / image size is a serious concern for anyone, it's perfectly possible to use previous release which is pretty solid for the brcm47xx.

This is the buildsystem for the OpenWrt Linux distribution. Please use "make menuconfig" to choose your preferred configuration for the toolchain and firmware. You need to have installed gcc, binutils, bzip2, flex, python, perl, make, find, grep, diff, unzip, gawk, getopt, subversion, libz-dev and libc headers. Run "./scripts/feeds update -a" to get all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default respectively and "./scripts/feeds install -a" to install symlinks of all of them into package/feeds/. Use "make menuconfig" to configure your image. Simply running "make" will build your firmware. It will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain, the kernel and all choosen applications. To build your own firmware you need to have access to a Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case-sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin will not be supported because of the lack of case sensitiveness in the file system. Sunshine! Your OpenWrt Community http://www.openwrt.org
