The 'hwmode' setting has been replaced with 'band' in OpenWrt to add
support for newer bands outside of 2.4G and 5G. Adjust Gluon accordingly.
[Matthias Schiffer: rebased, extended commit message]
This removes PKG_VERSION and PKG_RELEASE from most Makefiles, as the
value was never useful for Gluon packages; instead, PKG_VERSION is set
to 1 in gluon.mk.
It also removes two other weird definitions:
- gluon-iptables-clamp-mss-to-pmtu replicating the old PKG_VERSION logic
from gluon-core, but without the fixed PKG_BUILD_DIR to prevent
unnessary rebuilds
- gluon-hoodselector set GLUON_VERSION=3
Simplify the individual form providers by always running reconfigure. This
also commits all UCI packages, so we can remove all tracking of UCI
sections from the wizard code.
Instead of returning a list of packages to commit, the providers just
save their settings directly. Explicit runs of upgrade scripts are
removed, as they are now run by reconfigure.
This will hide the outdoor mode setting on compatible devices in case
the defined channels should be preserved.
Otherwise a user might be under the impression their device is compliant
with outdoor operation when in reality it still uses prohibited
channels.
There is no setting to explicitly enable mesh interfaces in the config
wizard, so we need to enable mesh interfaces by default when the outdoor
mode is disabled (unless site.conf dictates otherwise).
The simplest way to achieve this is to delete the 5GHz mesh interface
sections when outdoor mode is disabled: 200-wireless would delete and
recreate them a moment later anyways, but by deleting them earlier we
ensure that the disabled status is initialized from site.conf again.
200-wireless will add or remove the mesh network sections of
/etc/config/network. Commit this file, so the modified setting doesn't
get lost on reboot.
Fixes: #2048
The is_outdoor function is placed inside the gluon.platform module, not
the platform_info module. Currently, the outdoor-mode wizard component
and the upgrade script fail due to nil-value calls.
adds a section to the wizard for outdoor capable devices
that informs the user of of the regulatory situation and
allows a quick toggle of the outdoor mode.
