The build system allows to use Linux release candidate kernels (-rcX).
For this a target/linux/generic/kernel-6.XY as follows is needed:

LINUX_KERNEL_HASH-6.XY-rc1 = 18ba6ebd72f46b881e0d73e390b2888b7b43...
Sadly the builds fail with a packaging error.

The apk metadata specification reads:

Optionally one or more _suffix{number} components can follow.
The list of valid suffixes (and their sorting order) is: alpha,
beta, pre, rc, <no suffix>, cvs, svn, git, hg, p."
Given that the kernel uses "-rcX" naming scheme and apk requires
"_rcX" instead, simply translate the dash to an underscore for
these builds.

Drop it as it's not used anywhere. What is actually needed is the

APK will generate the compressed scripts.tar by default, however we rely
on using TAR support for updating the tarball on the fly and this does not
work when tarball is compressed and will cause the following errors:
staging_dir/host/bin/tar: Cannot update compressed archives
Try /staging_dir/host/bin/tar --help' or
staging_dir/host/bin/tar --usage' for more information.
So, lets simply decompress the scripts.tar.gz before usage and then
compress it after we are done.

Default behavior for apk was to create an uncompressed scripts.tar
file. Due to the structure of tar files, with fixed block
size and null padding, this file becomes very large on OpenWrt
installations where there are typically two scripts per package.
This could cause the raw tar file to easily grow to over 500KB,
whereas the compressed file is generally around 20-30KB.
When stored in the /rom partition of a squashfs device, the file
is compressed and this is not an issue. But, as soon as you add
or delete a package, the scripts.tar file is fully expanded into
the /overlay partition and can cause issues on small-flash devices.
This issue was addressed in an upstream commit by detecting
whether the scripts.tar file is compressed (its name must be
exactly 'scripts.tar.gz'), and then retaining that compression by
reading/writing the file using a compressed stream.
This commit applies a cherrypicked patch for the upstream commit, and
compresses the scripts.tar during construction of the device rootfs.

Currently, feeds/base is created as an absolute symlink to $(TOPDIR)/package.
If the OpenWrt source tree is copied to another location for building (while keeping the old tree), the symlink will still point to the package directory in the old tree.
Using a relative symlink ensures that feeds/base always points to the package directory within the current OpenWrt source tree, improving portability and avoiding incorrect links.

According to CMake documentation[1]:
[CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH] is a list of directories that contain the
target environment.
[CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_PROGRAM] sets the default behavior for the
find_program command.
In most cases, find_program is used to search for an executable which
will then be executed, e.g. using execute_process or
add_custom_command. So in most cases an executable from the build host
is required, so setting CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_PROGRAM to NEVER is
normally preferred.
Since CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH is set to the target staging dir, and the
toolchain root dir, it will find target programs before the host ones.
An example of this problem is if you try to build antiblock from the
packages feed after llvm from the video feeds is built. Antiblock will
search for clang-format, pickup the target version, and fail to build.

As mkits.sh only generates the relevant DTS for mkimage and is

It's expected the mkits.sh script to generate only the relevant DTS
entry and have all the blob already prepared to use for mkimage.
This is not the case for the RootFS case where the script generates a
.pagesync with the dd command.
To better handle this, drop the dd command and instead error out if the
.pagesync blob is not found if RootFS is used.
Adapt the generic fit build in image-commands.mk to call the dd for
.pagesync right before mkits.sh.

With further investigation it was found a race in generating .itb images
that include a RootFS caused by the mkits.sh and the mkimage.
Due to the fact that mkits.sh generates a .pagesync image of the passed
rootfs, it can happen that, concurrently, mkimage can be called at the
same time mkits.sh is creating another .pagesync for the same rootfs.
This cause mkimage to use an half made rootfs.pagesync creating a
corrupted image.
To address this, also protect the mkimage with the same lock used for
mkits.sh preventing any kind of concurrent usage/generation of the
rootfs.pagesync blob

Rework the package SOURCE entry handling to account for the --root feeds
script feature.
Move the SOURCE entry string manipulation logic outside package-defaults.mk
in package.mk and limit only to non DUMP scenario to not pollute the .mk
too much.
Restructure the previous logic and add a new additional condition.
If we detect the package comes from a feed, replace any feed path that
have the _root prefix to the feed name with the non-root variant (the
feeds script create a symbolic link to it) and point the package SOURCE
entry to what the symbolic link points to.

APK, unlike OPKG, can sign individual packages and not just indexes.
Since OpenWrt uses a distributed build infrastructure and only the build
master owns the private keys, signing of individual buildworkers doesn't
work. Right now, each buildworker creates a temporary build key to sign
packages, then transmits the package index to the buildmaster for a
signature.
As a result, all individual packages contain a nonsensical signature,
making them harder to reproduce. This commit removes the individual
package signing.
Since APK requires signatures per default, explicitly allow installation
of unsigned packages during the build process.
The config option here is for historical reasons misleading,
SIGNED_PACKAGES refers to the package index, not the individual
packages.

Flashing instructions:
======================
Various methods can be used to install the actual image on the flash.
Two easy ones are:
ap51-flash
----------
The tool ap51-flash (https://github.com/ap51-flash/ap51-flash) should be
used to transfer the image to the u-boot when the device boots up.
initramfs from TFTP
-------------------
The serial console (115200 8N1) must be used to access the u-boot shell
during bootup. It can then be used to first boot up the initramfs image
from a TFTP server (here with the IP 192.168.1.21):
setenv serverip 192.168.1.21
setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.1
tftpboot 0x83001000 <filename-of-initramfs-kernel>.bin && bootm $fileaddr
The actual sysupgrade image can then be transferred (on the LAN port) to the
device via
scp <filename-of-squashfs-sysupgrade>.bin root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/
On the device, the sysupgrade must then be started using
sysupgrade -n /tmp/<filename-of-squashfs-sysupgrade>.bin

APK kindly stores the mtime of each containing file in created packages,
breaking reproducibility. As a fix, touch all files of the package with the
timestamp of PKGSOURCE_DATE_EPOCH, which contains the timestamp based on the
last package modification.
Over at OPKG, something similar is done by setting mtime in the tar command,
see the `ipkg-build` script.
To tackle this in APK directly, some changes are suggested. However until this
is merged, we should fix it downstream.
