@gwlim - probably this patch required modification/update https://github.com/gwlim/mips74k-ar71xx-lede-patch/blob/lede-17.01/patch/071-optimize-cmake.patch and https://github.com/gwlim/mips24k-ar71xx-lede-patch/blob/lede-17.01/patch/071-optimize-cmake.patch (start is line 99):

...Finally, modifying your .config by adding support for USB mass storage devices is something natural.

Must change line 108:

+-ADD_DEFINITIONS(-Os -ggdb -Wall -Werror --std=gnu99 -Wmissing-declarations)

change to

+-ADD_DEFINITIONS(-Os -ggdb -Wall -Werror --std=gnu99 -Wmissing-declarations --Wno-format-truncation)

Effect - build properly fstools and block-mount package: http://wklej.org/id/3217406/.

EDIT && OTHERS:
pleas add support to WNDR3800 (if possible) and WNDR4700 :yum:

OR: @gwlim, you can use commits to get a certain "version" downloaded like here I do:


In this way you don't have to worry about future changes in "lede-17.01" branch, you will modify your own commit id if you want to upgrade your build (and patches if necessary).
(It uses curl and unzip, and it's way faster than even cloning 1 branch.)
Hope it helps ... :slight_smile:

246

Should be fixed.
Small change from LEDE stable

I tried it with a Buffalo router.
I will report the test results along with the image file.

@gwlim , thanks to your work!!

248

You should check which repository you are using.
For mips24 you should use the mips24kc repo.
packing the struct boost performance in mips24 cores but drops performance in mips74kc.
basically mips24kc needs to pack
while do not pack mips74

Yesterday evening it happened again (after 1.5 days): lan connection was dropped. (reboot solved the problem again)
This time I spent a little time with it:

  • wifi iface worked ok (that's how I ssh-d in)
  • pppoe wan connection was also dropped (not showing up on the list of ifconfig, but eth0 was there)
  • brlan, wifi and eth1 were both showing up on the list of ifconfig
    So it seems all the wired connections stopped working for some reason but not wireless.

Any ideas?
(I have to say that the image is my compilation according to your instruction, and I didn't have any issues.)
Thanks

250

sounds like your wan requires dhcp renewal

251

Any plan for x86? I think is a great idea. I've been looking for something like this for a long time. It's a shame that the x86 architecture is not supported.

PD: Great Work.

252

It's not the problem (pppoe) since lan connection was also dropped.
Can you provide the list of patches that are only used for performance enhancement in the 74k repo?
I want to rule out which patch is causing the issue.
Thanks

253

is there a plan to integrate fasth past into the regular lede releases? 17.02 maybe?

254

What else are you running on the router?
Up time on all my routers is until I reboot

255

Nothing, right now: wifi, dyndns, firewall stuff, fixed dhcp addresses, pppoe wan connection, sqm.
(On 15.05.1 (and earlier) I had lot of other stuff: external hdd, vsftpd, transmission, samba, minidlna, and a lot more.)

256

If lan is dropped it will not be possible to ssh into the router

257

That's correct. I could only via wifi!!! (that worked fine)

258

WiFi is part of lan, under interfaces it is bridged to lan, most likely it is another issue.
I am guessing it has to be the switch driver

259

Thanks for thinking with me. I flashed the original 17.01.2 firmware (downloaded from the site) 2 days ago (after getting dropping issues for the 2nd time) and it runs fine since then.
That's why I thought I'll try to separate the problem with selecting just couple of patches of yours once at a time.

260

Try removing this patch
https://github.com/gwlim/mips74k-ar71xx-lede-patch/blob/lede-17.01/patch/059-increase-ag71xx-tx-ring-size.patch
Possibly related to this
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/743498/

261

Thanks, gwlim, I'll try to compile without it. (I already forked your repo :slight_smile: )

262

I compiled without it and flashed it, we will see. I'll report back a week later if all goes fine. Thanks!

263

Could you guys post output of following commands:
cat /sys/fast_classifier/debug_info
cat /sys/fast_classifier/exceptions

I've also made it compile in k4.9 trunk
