The problem is getting more interesting .

 

After I selected TP-Link TL-WR941ND as my target (changed the target from
TL-WR741ND to TL-WR941ND, and nothing else), the build became successful.

 

However, very surprisingly, when I look into the bin folder, I found that I
actually got the images for TP-Link TL-WR741ND: 

 

...

md5sums
openwrt-ar71xx-rootfs.tar.gz
openwrt-ar71xx-root.jffs2-128k
openwrt-ar71xx-root.jffs2-64k
openwrt-ar71xx-root.squashfs
openwrt-ar71xx-root.squashfs-4k
openwrt-ar71xx-tl-wr741nd-v1-squashfs-factory.bin
openwrt-ar71xx-tl-wr741nd-v1-squashfs-sysupgrade.bin
openwrt-ar71xx-uImage-gzip.bin
openwrt-ar71xx-uImage-lzma.bin
openwrt-ar71xx-vmlinux.bin
openwrt-ar71xx-vmlinux.elf
openwrt-ar71xx-vmlinux.gz
openwrt-ar71xx-vmlinux.lzma
packages
....

 

In order to confirm this, I removed the entire bin folder, and build again
(double-checked that I have selected TL-WR941ND as my target platform, I
still got the same thing (i.e. images for TL-WR741ND). 

 

But when I go back to select TL-WR741ND as my target, it gain failed to
build! 

 

Is this a bug? Should I now use the image obtained (i.e.
openwrt-ar71xx-tl-wr741nd-v1-squashfs-factory.bin) in my TL-WR741ND or my
TL-WR941ND? The last thing I want to see is to load an incorrect image into
the router and brick it. 

 

Please help. 

 

Regards, 

 

Robert.

OK.  I used to same configuration, only changed the target to TP-Link
TL-WR941ND (since I also have a TP-Link TL-WR941ND).  The build is
successful!

 

Therefore, the problem seems to be TP-Link TL-WR741ND specific.  Does anyone
have any idea on why that could be?

Dear all,

 

I am trying to compile backfire with virtually the default config I
downloaded, except that:

 

1.  Changed the default platform to ar71xx/TP-Link TL-WR741ND v1; 2.
Enabled mesh networking (pre-802.11s) support (in Networking Support).

 

And nothing else.  Then I got the following error while I build:

 

....................

arch/mips/ar71xx/built-in.o: In function `ap91_eth_init':

(.init.text+0x13b8): undefined reference to `ar71xx_add_device_dsa'

arch/mips/ar71xx/built-in.o: In function `ap91_eth_init':

(.init.text+0x13b8): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_26 against
`ar71xx_add_device_dsa'

make[5]: *** [vmlinux] Error 1

......................

 

Can anyone please give me some pointer?

 

Thanks very much in advance.

 

Regards,

 

Robert
