[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH] fstools: block: make extroot mount preparation more robust

2019-04-09 Thread Kenneth J. Miller
The extroot mount preparation code for r/w rootfs overlay discovery, and determining the user-defined /etc/config/fstab location within, would only discover overlays residing on JFFS2 or UBIFS MTD storage. This led to attempts at loading the uci fstab configuration without the required /tmp/overla

[OpenWrt-Devel] [PATCH] fstools: block: make extroot mount preparation more robust

2019-04-09 Thread Kenneth Miller
I had trouble using an ext4 extroot overlay on my Zyxel NBG6817 running 18.06.2, so I took a closer look at the way libfstools and its block tool setup the extroot overlay during PREINIT and found some things broke extroot mounting on certain devices. The issue and logs are documented in the follo

[OpenWrt-Devel] DTS Style: Referring to "Upstream" Nodes

2019-04-09 Thread Jeff Kletsky
In general, within an OpenWrt DTS that `#include "some_linux_supplied.dtsi"` is it preferred to refer to a node defined in upstream code by label, or by path? For example, with `blsp1_spi2: spi@78b6000` in the upstream-controlled DTS, prefer     &blsp1_spi2 or (taking into account scope or

Hi Bjørn, routers are critical infrastructure. We should try to achieve the best we can. One of the reasons for the Lede split was that problems were procrastinated and accumulated over the release timeline. That's the reason why we should release less often, but with a higher quality. If problem

From: Rafał Miłecki Dropping this option significantly improves NAT performance on BCM5301X (bcm53xx) for LAN to WAN traffic with GRO disabled (+14%). It slightly affects kernel size - it gets bigger by 1,5% - 3% depending on a target. Unfortunately this change may decrease NAT performance for s
