I can confirm. I'm on master, with pppoe, and i get full gigabit speed with basically no cpu usage.
I'm also up and running since one week, now i need to update the firmware (some fixes in packages i forgot when building last time) but i'm so sorry i can't see the first crash 
On wifi i get around 500Mbps (with plain ath10k, sadly i can't still manage to use 160MHz channel width)

I have irqbalance enabled indeed on 21.02.x. I disabled nlbwmon yesterday. Later I planned on rebooting the router to get the older ath10k firmware version loaded (QCA-ATH10Kw10.4-3.9.0.2-00156). I then noticed my router with the 21.02.x image already had a spontaneous reboot when the latest ath10k firmware version was still active (QCA-ATH10Kw10.4-3.9.0.2-00157). So far I deemed the 21.02.x NSS builds to be stable, even with my set up. At the moment I have an uptime of: 10:12:41 up 1 day, 13:39, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 with the 00156 version of the ath10k firmware. Irqbalance is still enabled.
I look specifically for ath10k driver and firmware. And when results mention different experiences with the -ct variants both seem to have this SWBA overrun error coming and going throughout the years and versions. Hard to tell wether regression is an issue throughout the years, or a minor change occurred in those cases that was unnoticed (bad behaving client got an update) that in combination with the switch from ath10k to ath10k-ct or the other way around may have left the impression that this change was the solution... Besides that, some use the builds released by ACwifidude, some have private builds with minor changes and then we all have a different usage in respect to clients, number of clients and number of connections and what is done over those connections...
I believe you keep routing on a separate R7800 from your WiFi? Have I read that correctly? This alone would separate routing from WiFi handling from the same NSS cores?
My R7800 running as dumb AP is running 43C, my router is running 61C. Temperature was warm. The ap-R7800 is running in a conditioned environment, the router is not, but temperature is stable in there.
@acwifidude, is it possible to include stubby in images? it is used to encrypt DNS requests and add extra protection. I don't think it affects stability since it works on top of dnsmasq (or so I think). It may be useful to more people. Thank you!
I was able to get everything NSS related compiled for kernel 5.15. I've also managed to backport a good chunk of of QSDK 11.4 while maintaining compatibility with NSS FW 11.0. Versions >= 11.5 had a significant number of changes so didn't venture that route. @Ansuel / @robimarko I know you've been focused on ipq807x/AX3600, but do you know if it's even worth asking Qualcomm via their quic repo for NSS FW > 11.0 for ipq806x? I see FW references to 11.4-10-AK.R, 11.5-555-AK.R all the way to 12.0-037-AK.R for ip806x.

I already tried asking through a contact that made the NSS FW updates even possible publicly but IPQ806x never made it there.
You can try opening an issue, but so far they have never replied there
very good work sir any chance we can work with @ACwifidude so we can have a good shared repo with the changes

I was afraid of that :-/ I did put a request in last month. Hasn't seen any updates.
@Ansuel Thanks! (Though most of my patches are bastardized versions of yours and @robimarko's initial patches for 11.4). I still need to consolidate a good chunk of the patches, at least for uniformity's sake.

I'd like to move QCA packages out of the main tree similar to @robimarko's NSS repo. Will be my next task. Luckily I didn't have to change too much in the packages to maintain backwards compatibility with 5.10.
@ACwifidude have you looked at any migration to 5.15? I was getting too comfortable with the stability on 5.10

"comfortable" is a relative description 
. Some of us are after "sufficient" comfort on stability on 5.10. Would you mind sharing your 5.10 stability experience with us and if PPPoE is involved and what ath10k driver/firmware give you good results? For my point of view, you have a lot more insight and knowledge on this matter than I do

I actually found 11.4 fw bin yesterday.
Ansuel uploaded them to his fw repo

I’d love some help in migrating to 5.15. As secondary bonuses (if possible) - would love to make patches same or at least similar to the ipq807x work to simplify everything. Appreciate the work! I’ll gladly try out or build anything you have in a reasonable working state.

Hero!
Glad to test if we can manage to have a shared repo to build..

I HAVE BEEN SCOURING EVERYWHERE... Every possible combination I could search on github, gitlab, hell even Baidu to see if it leaked in China 
Came up short everywhere.
If I recall, @Ansuel you were the first one to find ( or at least post on gh ) the V11.0 FW for AK? Glad to see you come through for legacy IPQ806x fam! That should make it easier to remove my monkey patches for 11.0<->11.4 compatibility. I'll start looking at that now.
@ACwifidude that's great to hear! I've looked at a bunch of the ipq807x stuff that @Ansuel/@robimarko worked on and from CAF's codeaurora repo. My biggest hope has been to try and get DSA working with GMAC NSS and the athk11 NSS patches, but that's been a daunting task with my very basic C and kernel knowledge. Seeing a lot of the dataplane '_dp_' related code just threw me off, and know it's not as easy as sed -ie "s/ath10k_/ath11k_/g" ... ha

it will be easier to get the upstream gmac driver work with nss offload honestly than trying to adapt the gmac nss driver.

I've had a pretty stable run so far, highest uptime on my main r7800 was 60 days, with the only reason being pushing a new build.
I unfortunately can't comment on the PPPoE side. I use a direct line to my ISP's GPON. My main setup is:
WAN
Fiber Internet
WLAN (with MAC80211 NSS option enabled, and `frame_mode=2` for encapsulation)
Driver: ath10k-ct
Firmware: ath10k 10.4-3.9.0.2-00159
LAN
The default switch settings.
Note: The ath10k-ct driver I have changes from the backports-5.15.x package. Although not really a necessity, I liked the debugging/stats aspect of ath10k-ct and wanted latest upstream changes merged.
The only issue I've had was with VLAN tagging/untagging, where CPU would spike when doing any WLAN<->LAN communication.
That was my next thought as well, but still looks to be a daunting ordeal. I will try and take a look again this weekend.
Just looked at your notes for the 11.4 FW. Surprised that it was Synology that upgraded to 11.4. They must've just recently pushed that out, I was looking at the decompiled FW for RT2600AC just last week. Good find!
that's not good. Easily PPPoE is based on VLAN tagging on the Wan side, this sounds as a possible problem for PPPoE users. Definitely we need to test
(i also use vlan tagging in local ethernet, so this is going to be a big issue for me :))
My thoughts too! We have some kernel crashes where @Mpilon has considerable reason to suspect an issue with vlan stuff:
PPPoE requires me to use a VLAN tag. In my network I use VLAN's to separate my private network from the guest network.
@qosmio do you have some detail on the CPU spikes when doing any WLAN<-> LAN communication?
well i get your point, but this would not explain why i get unexpected stability (i have my wan tagged, and i have local vlan for iot devices, so i have pppoe and vlans on both sides, and i got no crashes also with latest master..)

I add dawn, igmpproxy and some prometheus-node-exporter-* packages for monitoring. I remove banip, adblock and openvpn. I have a USB-stick mounted with AdGuardHome (installed via GitHub, not the opkg package).
I haven't started with a new fresh config yet after flashing a kernel 5.10 based build. Could still be some leftovers that are secretly incompatible
