Hi, Could you add support for https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/unbranded/a5-v11 I tried installing this, but opkg says incompatible with the architectures configured.

cd /tmp wget http://plan44.ch/downloads/experimental/kmod-ws2812-draiveris_3.18.29%2B0.1-9_ar71xx.ipk opkg install /tmp/kmod-ws2812-draiveris_3.18.29+0.1-9_ar71xx.ipk --force-depends

Hi Sebastian,

I just packaged the ws2812-draiveris kernel module to have it separately from the project it originates from, but I am not the author (see README.md). I basically understand how it works, but the code was very specifically created for AR9331 SoC, and thus is not easily portable to other CPUs.

The Ralink RT5350F of the a5-v11 is different from the AR9331. Somebody with detail knowledge about the RT5350F would need to modify the driver. My own expertise is neither in AR9331 nor RT5350 so I can't help here. (I wrote a non-IRQ-blocking WS281x driver for the MT7688 chip, this was possible because I know that chip in enough detail. The MT7688 is what's in onion.io Omega2(S), or LinkItSmart, or HLK-7688A)

Ok, thanks! If you know any other ws2812b driver that work on this cpu, please reply to me. Sebastian
