I reverted back to the other partition, and then sysupgrade again. Now everything is working fine. So, I don't know what caused the other issue.
Will be making a new build my end for testing. Will see if I get the same issue as you did.
Do you build with neon support?
No I haven't been using anything different then your settings
Seemed to me when this first started happening multiple people tried different LuCi and was having the same issue. Also, at the time OpenWrt was having the same issue. Some also said it was HTTPS, but I had the same problem with HTTP.
It is odd to be sure. I should put up a FAQ for the issue, and point people to it.
Hi, could this be something that is of interest for David's builds?
It has been looked at several times over the years, but had little interest. Really, the 1900ac stood to gain the most since the processor runs a little hot, but I tested scaling on my 1900ac, and the average temp may have gone down 1 °c. If the upside was really big or even moderate then there would have been a large push to get the driver implemented. I think it would be nice if someone put it in, but eh..
Yea no thermal issues with my WRT32X although I don't load it up heavily, maybe higher higher workloads it would be worth it. Honestly it would good to have in the interest of efficiency.
In other news I wonder if mvebu will perform any different on 4.19 now with this commit: https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/commit/ace1bfb5541387ee4f4eca5d0372da8897023449
There hasn't been any developments in the Linux kernel by Marvell CPU maintainers for the Armada 38x regarding power saving features. This issue from 2015 still hasn't been solved even in 2019 (5.4-rc2).
Changing the frequencies won't help the electrical current draw if the processor does not go to a lower power state to match it. Hence:
Reading around (can't be bothered to look it up again), there is a hardware design flaw leading to crashes/stalls once the CPU goes to a lower power state. Once it goes down to a lower power/idle state, it will never go out of it.
Besides, the thing already has a beefy heatsink for most consumer routers. And frequency scaling may also have a slight adverse effect on traffic shaping (quote from one of the sqm-scripts maintainers).
For this:
Linksys WRT AC series have a Cortex a9
CPU. The changes to a53
and a73
will only really be interesting if you're running an ESPRESSObin, MACCHIATObin, or Clearfog board. The changeset affecting us is:
+CONFIG_CC_HAS_ASM_GOTO=y
-CONFIG_USB_XHCI_PCI=y
ASM_GOTO
was moved to the kernel config from a preprocessor macro throughout the Linux kernel code. This was an unnoticed regression when moving from 4.14 -> 4.19. As for, USB_XHCI_PCI
, it is a driver that was obsoleted by a newer one in 4.19 (formerly used solely by mamba
[WRT1900ACV1] devices I think).
This is what I want ^^
The Clearfog GT 8K does look great – but I still feel that x86 with AES-NI extensions will be more useful given the world is heading towards an encrypted future. I'm leaning towards the PC Engines apu4c2
Does anyone have a bandwidth tracking package that works with luci? I used to have one but I cant seem to find it, I thought it was BMON but this doesnt show in the luci sidebar after install and restart
That looks like a fine SBC for use, just looking at the specs of it now. The fact that you can upgrade the ram is sweet.
I'm looking for one as well. Please let us know if you find one...
nlbwmon?
Hi Everyone,
I have a 1900ACSv2 router running on snapshot v9133 (kernel 4.14.95), as it's been a while since I installed this build (and have had no problems with it) I was wondering if there was any reason (security or otherwise) I need to upgrade the firmware to the latest version.
Thanks for any advice.
There have been updates since the end of January/February 2019. Dealing with Wifi drivers ??? No
Depending on your particular situation I could go either way.
yeah, I'm an "if it aint broke" person...so if there are no security vulnerabilities then I'm inclined to leave it as it is
do you post anything on your website when a new version comes out that fixes specific vulnerabilities?
Thanks, I'm testing this package at the moment!
