This device is a dual 5GHz device. It is recommended to manually change the
radio of the first device to the lower 5GHz channels and the second radio
to the upper 5GHz channels
* ar71xx-generic: only create manifest alias for Rocket M5
This follow up the discussion done in #2070 by not creating a symlink
for the Rocket M5. Images for the Rocket M2 can still be flashed on a
Rocket M5.
This change will prevent the Rocket M5 from appearing in Firmware
selectors. Existing devices will still receive updates, as the device
name is still referenced for the device name expected by the M5.
Closes#2070
* docs: remove Rocket M5 from supported devices
The rewrite of the feature handling introduced multiple major bugs. One
of them was caused by the way Lua's logical operators work:
An expression of the form
_'autoupdater' and _'web-advanced'
would return 'web-advanced' rather than the boolean true when _ returned
both strings unchanged (because the features are enabled).
As entries with more than a single feature name in their expressions did
not set no_default, Gluon would then attempt to add gluon-web-advanced to
the package selection, as web-advanced is a "pure" feature.
To fix this, and get rid of the annoying nodefault, separate handling of
"pure" feature and handling of logical expressions into two separate
functions, called feature() and when(). To simplify the feature
definitions, the package list is now passed directly to these functions
rather than in a table with a single field 'packages'.
Fixes: ee5ec5afe5 ("build: rewrite features.sh in Lua")
The `features` file is converted to a Lua-based DSL.
A helper function `_` is used in the DSL; this will return the original
string for enabled features, and nil for disabled features. This allows
to use boolean operations on features without making the code too
verbose.
Besides having more readable and robust code, this also fixes the bug
that all files `packages/*/features` were evaluated instead of only
using the feature definitions of currently active feeds.
This change stores a Kernel with Debug-Symbols for the current
architecture in a new output directory '<outputdir>/debug'.
This allows a developer or operator of a network to store the kernel
along with the actual images. In case of a kernel oops the debug
information can be used with the script
'scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh' in the kernel source tree to get the
names to the symbols of the stack trace.
OpenWRT already provides the CONFIG_COLLECT_KERNEL_DEBUG -option that
creates a kernel with debug-symbols in the OpenWRT output directory.
This change enables this option and copies the generated kernel to the
gluon output directory.

This summaries giving an overview of a scripts function and a short summary
how it's doing this. Only the scripts are covered, that are used by the
Freifunk-Berlin firmwarebuiler too.
