So, most of this build was made possible by @qosmio and his work to get the NSS parts up and running. I might be wrong, but I think the main challenge to getting that merged is related to licensing.
Out of the "other" changes, a few are just compiling in extra stuff (ksmbd, plexmediaserver, etc) and a few are performance-related:
- using unbound with resources set to "above standard maximum level" and with all the extra goodies compiled in. As much as Id love to see mainline adopt this I dont see the default changing from
dnsmasqanytime soon. - various tweaks to the kernel config and various compile-time flags used. I could see some (though not all) of these (e.g., using 1000 hz for interrupt timer, using low latency kernel, setting the
-mcpuflag) being accepted as new defaults (at least for ipq8074), though im not sure what would be required to accept a PR that implements these changes in mainline.
Thanks for letting me know about this....I was unaware that was an issue. Next update ill have to set Multicast to Unicast to false by default.
