Hi All,
I am facing an issue with OpenWRT's Luci interface when using a large number of interfaces in my network file. Whenever I try to add 40 or more interfaces, Luci gives an error that says "install protocol extensions," and the interfaces don't get added to ifconfig. Additionally, when I check dmesg, it shows "netifd[14412]: segfault at a0 ip 08057fdc sp bfe975b0 error 4 in netifd[804b000+1c000]." also, complete interface does not show up with ip a commandm but i can see the configuration for these interfaces in config file.
To give some context, my network config file is currently 740 lines long and is expected to increase further. Furthermore, I am running one IPsec instance with 55 ACLs on the same machine. The machine is hosted on Hyper-V with four cores and 10 GB of RAM, and the CPU utilization is minimal, only around 12-13%.
I am unsure why this error is occurring, and I would appreciate any help or advice that the OpenWRT community can offer. Is there a limit to the number of interfaces that can be used in OpenWRT's network file? Or is there a specific setting or configuration that I need to adjust to support a larger number of interfaces? Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time and assistance.
Sincerely,
Shripad
