Hi, I am planning to port some new packages into DDWRT for Netgear R7000 platform. I have a requirement to enable glibc and Kernel version should be 4.XX. But Currently I couldn't able to find R7000 DDWRT with 4.XX kernel version. Could you please help me with these.
Any kind of help is appreciated!

Hi thanks for responding. Did you tried to compile the firmware or you just downloaded the image file. If you compiled will you please feel free to share the steps to build the image.

Hi guys thanks for responding. Actually I'm not looking for a prebuilt image for Netgear R7000 which has kernel version 4.XX.
I want to build my own image from source code for Netgear R7000 target. Previously they shared the steps to build for that target https://www.myopenrouter.com/article/how-build-dd-wrt-build-r7000-router. Here the source code is specific to R7000 and I followed the steps and it worked fine. But that has kernel version 2.6.36. So first question is 'Is there a latest ddwrt source code specific to R7000 with kernel version 4.XX' and the second is 'If it is not there, how to build image for R7000 with the source code provided in the below link https://github.com/mirror/dd-wrt'. Where can I find the detailed steps to build an image.
I know its a lot to ask But I just need a push.
Thanks in advance.
