OpenWrt's special gpio-button-hotplug driver is still using exclusively the legacy GPIO Subsystem gpio_ API. While it still does work fine for most devices, upstream linux is starting to convert platform support like that of the APU2/3/4 to the new GPIOD LOOKUP tables that are not supported by it. Hence, this patch replaces the gpio_ calls present in gpio-button-hotplug with gpiod_ equivalent wherever it's possible. This allows the driver to use the gpiod lookup tables and still have a fallback for legacy platform data code that just sets button->gpio set to the real button/switch GPIO. As a bonus: the active_low logic is now being handled by the linux's gpio subsystem too. Another issue that was address is the of_handle leak in the dt parser error path.

OpenWrt Project is a Linux operating system targeting embedded devices. Instead of trying to create a single, static firmware, OpenWrt provides a fully writable filesystem with package management. This frees you from the application selection and configuration provided by the vendor and allows you to customize the device through the use of packages to suit any application. For developers, OpenWrt is the framework to build an application without having to build a complete firmware around it; for users this means the ability for full customization, to use the device in ways never envisioned.
Sunshine!
Development
To build your own firmware you need a GNU/Linux, BSD or MacOSX system (case sensitive filesystem required). Cygwin is unsupported because of the lack of a case sensitive file system.
Requirements
You need the following tools to compile OpenWrt, the package names vary between distributions. A complete list with distribution specific packages is found in the Build System Setup documentation.
gcc binutils bzip2 flex python3 perl make find grep diff unzip gawk getopt
subversion libz-dev libc-dev rsync which
Quickstart
-
Run
./scripts/feeds update -ato obtain all the latest package definitions defined in feeds.conf / feeds.conf.default -
Run
./scripts/feeds install -ato install symlinks for all obtained packages into package/feeds/ -
Run
make menuconfigto select your preferred configuration for the toolchain, target system & firmware packages. -
Run
maketo build your firmware. This will download all sources, build the cross-compile toolchain and then cross-compile the GNU/Linux kernel & all chosen applications for your target system.

The main repository uses multiple sub-repositories to manage packages of
different categories. All packages are installed via the OpenWrt package
manager called opkg. If you're looking to develop the web interface or port
packages to OpenWrt, please find the fitting repository below.
