Ipq806x NSS build (Netgear R7800 / TP-Link C2600 / Linksys EA8500)

Just curious: is it possible that there will ever be a NSS cake?

ACwifidude · January 17, 2022, 12:57pm

Unfortunately not. The offloading pathway only supports fq_codel as far as I understand.

Sorry - this is a a bit above my knowledge base. Good luck!

I tried it again and got worse performance. went through all the cli scrpits but changed mine to be symmetric of 9900000 but did everything else. Then from the UI turned on SQM. Throughput decreased. I will turn it off for now.
I do get this in the log when it starts:

ACwifidude · January 18, 2022, 2:57am

You might have an extra zero on the rate.

Try 800000 kb then go up from there to find the ideal speed / latency for your connection. 900000 kb should be about the max speed for nss_fqcodel.

keithspg · January 18, 2022, 2:32pm

I'm confused.
typed in all the stuff on the cli as outlined, but did change the values from the example 1G/10M to be more in line with the 1G/1G I have. (I may have typed an extra 0 in my typed response here in the forum).
Interestingly, the 900000 did not appear when it started, but the values in the Luci UI did:
Tue Jan 18 08:19:25 2022 user.notice SQM: Starting SQM script: nss.qos on eth0, in: 8800000 Kbps, out: 8800000 Kbps

This was after I typed in:

set sqm.eth0.upload=990000
set sqm.eth0.download=990000

So is this CLI stuff being put somewhere where it is accessed by the UI or is it going somewhere else?
When I look at the state file, it looks like this:

which looks like it is getting its parameters from the UI and not the Cli commands I typed. Am I even looking at the right things? Everything I have tried makes it a lot worse and never better. Please go easy on me as I am just a recipe follower and trying to investigate this capability.

You probably want to read about UCI (it's one of the more awesome things which originated in OpenWrt).

tl;dr: You always need to uci commit changes in order for them to take effect. From the usage doc of commit:

Writes changes of the given configuration file, or if none is given, all configuration files, to the filesystem. All “uci set”, “uci add”, “uci rename” and “uci delete” commands are staged into a temporary location and written to flash at once with “uci commit”. This is not needed after editing configuration files with a text editor, but for scripts, GUIs and other programs working directly with UCI files.

100% uptime on latest 5.10 Master for both of the R7800's I support. Love it! @ACwifidude

pattagghiu · January 23, 2022, 5:28pm

Hello,
just buildt my 5.10 master.
Good news: the 5GHz network is back (haven't checked the performance yet)
Bad news, i have no NSS at all. Since i have a quite complex config, i started from my old config file, i thought i could be lucky
that was not the case.
So i'm comparing my file with @ACwifidude config file, but i can't find any nss special package to add, so i can't understand why it's not offloading.
More than that, i wonder if CONFIG_PACKAGE_MAC80211_NSS_SUPPORT=y is still supported with 5.10, since i see i have this in my config, but not in the new one

Btw, the only error i can see in logs is this:

Mon Jan 10 05:22:09 2022 daemon.notice procd: /etc/rc.d/S19qca-nss-ecm: Failed to find shortcut-fe. Maybe it is a built in module ?
Mon Jan 10 05:22:09 2022 daemon.notice procd: /etc/rc.d/S19qca-nss-ecm: Failed to find shortcut-fe-ipv6. Maybe it is a built in module ?
Mon Jan 10 05:22:09 2022 daemon.notice procd: /etc/rc.d/S19qca-nss-ecm: Failed to find shortcut-fe-drv. Maybe it is a built in module ?

but any speedtest (wired!) is in the range of 400Mbps, where i constantly got 915..
what can it be? I see no shortcut-FE package to include..
Thanks

ACwifidude · January 24, 2022, 4:31pm

You’ll have to include all my commits to have the right set of patches and packages built in.

If you built off master you’ll have to rebuild with all the additional commits.

Master and its new firewall looks like fun. I’ll try to rebase and rebuild this weekend. If you follow the instructions in post 2 above you should be able to get a hardware offloading build.

pattagghiu · January 24, 2022, 4:50pm

wait wait, i built my image starting from your repository for master 5.10 (this: https://github.com/ACwifidude/openwrt/tree/kernel5.10-nss-qsdk11.0 ) as i've always done with the "old" master and with 21.02, is there anything more to add?
i fear i'll have to start from a clean config, this is getting me nightmares

ACwifidude · January 25, 2022, 1:48am

As long as you have this in your final .config you should have all the main nss offloading features, I use a diffconfig file to ensure I get the needed packages (diffconfig file is included in the repo for both -ct drivers and ath10k drivers):

CONFIG_PACKAGE_kmod-qca-nss-drv=y
CONFIG_PACKAGE_kmod-qca-nss-drv-qdisc=y
CONFIG_PACKAGE_kmod-qca-nss-ecm-standard=y
CONFIG_PACKAGE_kmod-qca-nss-gmac=y
CONFIG_PACKAGE_kmod-nss-ifb=y
CONFIG_PACKAGE_kmod-qca-nss-drv-pppoe=y
CONFIG_PACKAGE_MAC80211_NSS_SUPPORT=y

qsdk 10.0 vs qsdk 11.0, what is the difference? I'm lost...sorry.

bad news, i have all of these and i have no offloading.
So isn't this something i should care about?

i fear i'll have to start from a clean config

I have long hoped for a liberated devkit to port cake to nss.

Updated 21.02 build. Included wifi fix that might help some issues.

@pattagghiu The patches should cover that issue. Let me rebuild master this weekend and see if there are any bugs.

ok so i wait until next week to rebuild
i'm using my 7800 without NSS, i'm so sad
is there something i can debug to see what is not working / hasn't started? the logs say nss cores started up.. can't understand..

If it is helpful in the meanntime you can run my current 21.02 build or master build. You can add / subtract packages to your liking and be back up to full speed.

Hi after some advice I have been using the Hnyman r7800 build for some time which has been excellent

I am currently on Plusnet 70/16

I am upgrading to BT full fibre 900/150 on February 9th

Can I simply upgrade to this build? Do I need to go back to stock first? Will I have any issues etc?

Thank you in advance!

My current setup:
