@apcameron Hi, it will depend on the maintainer decission, but I'm afraid, that Other than that, your submission has some formal issues, please take a look at https://openwrt.org/submitting-patches and read it carefully, namely |

@ynezz Openwrt already supports this device and so this is an Update not adding a new device. The goal is to get it to have its own binary instead of sharing the binary for the CPE510v1.0. As far as porting to the ath79 platform what documentation is out there on how to port a device from ar71xx to ath79? Currently this is not an option as the software I am using it with currently only supports the ar71xx branch. |
That's your view, from my point of view which is based on the content of this PR you're adding new device :-)
I don't think, that there's anything official, but I've stumbled upon https://forum.openwrt.org/t/porting-guide-ar71xx-to-ath79/13013/55
Interesting, I'm wondering what kind of software would work only with ar71xx and not with the ath79. Anyway, I think, that this is not a valid reason for not migrating to ath79 platform. |

@ynezz The Ham Radio software I have has only got patches that will apply against the ar71xx branch. A future version will be based on ath79. |

Closing this request and will attempt to create a version for the ath79 platform |
