| To create a Meson package for OpenWRT, we need to perform a few steps. Firstly, we should include ''$(INCLUDE_DIR)/meson.mk'' in the ''Makefile'', which will enable us to use Meson build system within the OpenWRT environment. Secondly, we can pass Meson arguments to specify various configuration options by using the ''MESON_ARGS+=<arg>'' syntax. This is especially useful when we want to customize build settings, such as choosing a specific compiler or setting optimization flags. Additionally, we can also pass environmental variables to Meson by using ''MESON_VARS''. This allows us to define environment-specific settings or pass additional information to the build system. By following these steps, we can create a robust and flexible Meson package for OpenWRT that meets our specific requirements. | To create a Meson package for OpenWrt, we need to perform a few steps.
