i may be misreading that, or maybe the description is wrong, but that suggests a master branch build, not a release or even release candidate, much less 19.x anything

i have dts files but what are dtsi
aleasto has quit [Quit: Konversation terminated!]
<slh>
dtsi files are included by dts files. each device has its own dts, with generic SOC level definitions included from the dtsi for a wide(r) variety of devices
<Slimey>
what if all i have is a dts from sources

<slh>
that depends
<slh>
OEM sources/ DTS usually are based on rather old kernels and out-of-tree code, so you will have to brush it up to current kernel standards anyways - if your device is based on a common SOC, use its default dtsi to the extent possible (you can hack around with your monolithic dts until you get it working, but for submitting you need to clean it up)

look at the existing devices (preferably roughly similar ones) to get a grasp of it
<slh>
it's a judgment call to quite some extent

Hmm got an RT N16 router here. Wonder what I can do with it...

good sized RAM/ flash, but 480 MHz bcm47xx and 802.11n radio with b43 support (so <54 MBit/s max), just not worth it (says the one who still has an ASUS wl-500gx, wl-500gP v1, Linksys WRT-54g and WRT-610N v1 somewhere on a shelf, neither of them has seen power in over a decade)
<slh>
(o.k., the last remark was a lie, I do occassionally try to flash the latest OpenWrt on them, ever 2-3 years for perhaps 10 minutes a pop)
<dr|z3d_>
wrt54g does well enough with tomato, if you don't need more than 20Mb/s

slh: also has brcmsmac or w/e it's called
