Simple Turris OS building script
Getting started
Create an empty directory you want to build Turris OS in, enter that directory
and from it call compile_fw script. In most basic use-case, this should be
enough. Be aware - it will delete all previous content of the current
directory. You can repeat individual steps of the compilation separately,
check compile_fw help for a list of available commands, generic options and
their brief descriptions.
Advanced usage
Patching
If you need to patch OpenWRT or any of the feeds, put a git formatted patch
into respective subdirectory of patches directory. In patches directory, there
is openwrt directory and directory for each feed we are patching. Inside those
directories, patches are also divided into subdirectories like to-upstream,
wip or hack to somehow distinguish between quality of patches.
Configuration
Default config for OpenWRT is put in configs directory either in directory
common or in a directory named after the target board. Files in those
directories gets merged (common ones first) and will form the final .config
file. Some parts of compile_fw might modify it further.
Release notes
There is a NEWS file in this directory that contains version number and after
it lines with new features in the release. This file is used to generate
turris-version package. compile_fw script reads it, finds the newest
version and from notes underneath it creates the package with release notes.
