John Crispin b0918f55be certificates: fix dual boot bank certificate handling
On dual boot bank devices, avoid running EST twice by checking for
operational certificates before falling back to the alternate bank.

Previously, after an upgrade the AP would boot from the alternate bank,
find only birth certificates there, and run EST again - resulting in
duplicate operational certificates.

Now the flow is:
- If operational.pem exists in current bank, use it
- If only birth certs in current bank, check alternate bank
- Single boot bank devices behave as before

Building

Setting up your build machine

Building requires a recent Linux installation. Older systems without Python 3.7 will have trouble. See this guide for details: https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-developer/toolchain/beginners-build-guide

Install build packages on Debian/Ubuntu (or see above guide for other systems):

sudo apt install build-essential libncurses5-dev gawk git libssl-dev gettext zlib1g-dev swig unzip time rsync python3 python3-setuptools python3-yaml

Doing a native build on Linux

Use ./build.sh <target>, or follow the manual steps below:

  1. Clone and set up the tree. This will create an openwrt/ directory.
./setup.py --setup    # for subsequent builds, use --rebase instead
  1. Select the profile and base package selection. This setup will install the feeds and packages and generate the .config file.
cd openwrt
./scripts/gen_config.py linksys_ea8300
  1. Build the tree (replace -j 8 with the number of cores to use).
make -j 8 V=s

Build output

The build results are located in the openwrt/bin/ directory:

Type Path
Firmware images openwrt/bin/targets/<target>/<subtarget>/
Kernel modules openwrt/bin/targets/<target>/<subtarget>/packages/
Package binaries openwrt/bin/packages/<platform>/<feed>/

Developer Notes

Branching model

  • main - Stable dev branch
  • next - Integration branch
  • staging-* - Feature/bug branches
  • release/v#.#.# - Release branches (major.minor.patch)

Repository structure

Build files:

  • Makefile - Calls Docker environment per target
  • dock-run.sh - Dockerized build environment
  • docker/Dockerfile - Dockerfile for build image
  • build.sh - Build script
  • setup.py - Clone and set up the tree
  • config.yml - Specifies OpenWrt version and patches to apply

Directories:

  • feeds/ - OpenWiFi feeds
  • patches/ - OpenWiFi patches applied during builds
  • profiles/ - Per-target kernel configs, packages, and feeds
