The mktplinkfw tool defines some default limits for these sizes: .id = "TL-WR1043NDv1", .hw_id = HWID_TL_WR1043ND_V1, .hw_rev = 1, .fw_max_len = 0x7c0000, .kernel_la = 0x80060000, .kernel_ep = 0x80060000, .rootfs_ofs = 0x140000, So the maximum allowed kernel size (by default) is 0x140000 (1310720 bytes). We can change this offset to accommodate a bigger kernel, but it is going to change a few other settings (like the flash mappings) and i also want to check if it is going to fit in the flash.
