Description
Description
When requesting a build for target: ath79/nand with profile: glinet_gl-ar300m-nand, the ASU server silently substitutes the profile with glinet_gl-ar300m-nor in the resulting build_cmd, producing a NOR image instead of the requested NAND image. No error or warning is returned to indicate the profile was changed.
Steps to Reproduce
curl -X POST https://sysupgrade.openwrt.org/api/v1/build \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"target": "ath79/nand",
"version": "25.12.0",
"profile": "glinet_gl-ar300m-nand",
"packages": ["luci"]
}'
Expected Behavior
The build should use PROFILE=glinet_gl-ar300m-nand and produce a NAND sysupgrade image.
Actual Behavior
The build_cmd in the response contains:
PROFILE=glinet_gl-ar300m-nor
The resulting image is built for NOR flash, not NAND. Flashing this image on a NAND device would be incorrect and potentially dangerous.
Environment
- ASU server:
sysupgrade.openwrt.org - Target:
ath79/nand - Version:
25.12.0 - Profile requested:
glinet_gl-ar300m-nand - Profile used by server:
glinet_gl-ar300m-nor - Device: GL.iNet GL-AR300M (NAND variant)
Additional Context
The GL-AR300M is a dual-flash device with both a NOR (16MB) and NAND (128MB) variant. The two profiles are distinct and not interchangeable. The NAND profile should be available under the ath79/nand target.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the request against the /api/v1/build endpoint and inspect how the ath79/nand target resolves the requested profile before assembling build_cmd. Trace the profile selection for glinet_gl-ar300m-nand; done means the response uses that NAND profile and produces a NAND image, or clearly reports an invalid substitution.
