Some devices are produced and sold under different names. To debloat
the buildroot but keeping it complete, new variables are introduced to
handle different namings. Below an example taken from a recent PR[0]
DEVICE_VENDOR := Arcadyan
DEVICE_MODEL := ARV4520PW
DEVICE_ALT0_VENDOR := Vodafone
DEVICE_ALT0_MODEL := Easybox 800
DEVICE_ALT1_VENDOR := Airties
DEVICE_ALT1_MODEL := WAV-281
With this commit the buildroot is extended to take care of up to three
alternative namings. The primary title plus alternatives names (if
defined) are shown in the `make menuconfig` dialog. Selecting on of
devices automatically selects all alternative names as they share the
same profile.
A list of the newly introduced variables:
DEVICE_ALT0_VENDOR :=
DEVICE_ALT0_MODEL :=
DEVICE_ALT0_VARIANT :=
DEVICE_ALT1_VENDOR :=
DEVICE_ALT1_MODEL :=
DEVICE_ALT1_VARIANT :=
DEVICE_ALT2_VENDOR :=
DEVICE_ALT2_MODEL :=
DEVICE_ALT2_VARIANT :=

-----------------------------------------------------
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!
