While most of the target's contents are split into subtargets, the base-files are maintained for the target as a whole. However, OpenWrt already implements a mechanism that will use (and even prefer) files in the subtargets' directories. This can be exploited to make several scripts subtarget-specific and thus save some space. In certain cases, keeping files in parent (=target) base-files was more convenient, and thus no splitting was performed for those. Note that this will increase overall code lines, but reduce code per subtarget. base-files ipk size reduction: master (mt7621) 60958 B split (mt7620) 46358 B (- 14.3 kiB) split (mt7621) 48759 B (- 11.9 kiB) split (mt76x8) 44948 B (- 15.6 kiB) split (rt288x) 43508 B (- 17.0 kiB) split (rt305x) 45616 B (- 15.0 kiB) split (rt3883) 44176 B (- 16.4 kiB) Run-tested on: GL.iNet GL-MT300N-V2 (mt76x8) D-Link DWR-116 (mt7620) Signed-off-by: Adrian Schmutzler <freifunk@adrianschmutzler.de>

This is the buildsystem for the OpenWrt Linux distribution.
To build your own firmware you need a Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case
sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack
of a case sensitive file system.
You need gcc, binutils, bzip2, flex, python3.5+, perl, make, find, grep, diff,
unzip, gawk, getopt, subversion, libz-dev and libc headers installed.
1. Run "./scripts/feeds update -a" to obtain all the latest package definitions
defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default
2. Run "./scripts/feeds install -a" to install symlinks for all obtained
packages into package/feeds/
3. Run "make menuconfig" to select your preferred configuration for the
toolchain, target system & firmware packages.
4. Run "make" to build your firmware. This will download all sources, build
the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the Linux kernel & all
chosen applications for your target system.
Sunshine!
