NanoPi R4S-RK3399 is a great new OpenWrt device

choppyc · May 25, 2024, 8:32am

could you post cat/proc/interrupts after making the changes. Should be now -
eth0 - CPU2
eth1 - CPU3
and TX and RX queues using both CPU4 and CPU5.

I used Balena Etcher on Windows 10 to flash the card. And I forgot to say the card is 64GB capacity.

I disassembled the case and hooked up UART. Here's the boot log of OpenWRT 23.05.3 on a 16GB card:

So it looks like TPL loads SPL and SPL loads U-Boot proper from the SD card just fine, but then U-Boot proper cannot read from mmc1 for some reason.

Did you try snapshot? If I remember correctly there were quite some changes since 23.x got released, particularly in the kernel.

leeandy · May 26, 2024, 11:23pm

Try using Rufus to flash sdcard.
I used Balena Etcher before but found it unreliable, so I never used it again.

twisteroidambassador · May 27, 2024, 4:09am

Just tried snapshot, and it does boot. Thank you for the idea!

After that I also tried booting 23.05.3 with uboot from snapshot, and that also worked. For anyone who wants to try this: Just download both snapshot and 23.0.5 images, decompress them, then using a hex editor copy offset 0x8000 - 0xFFFFFF from snapshot .img to 23.05.3 .img.

Here's a boot log with snapshot u-boot, booting 23.05.3:

hey choppyc, do u know if is there anyway to undervolt the nanopi r4s cpu to improve temperature? here is hot and sometimes the device just get too hot i cant even place my hand on top.

It is normal for the R4S metal heat sink case to get quite warm. What temperatures are reported after you install the luci-app-statistics and collectd-mod-thermal packages?

Unlike a plastic fantastic router case, there is no air gap between a CPU heat sink and an outer plastic case with the NanoPi R4S. If you removed the plastic case from an all in one device, you would find the CPU heat sink inside would be quite warm to the touch too.

i have the metal case, and the temperature on hot days hit arround 56ºC

ARM SOCs running hot (even hotter than that) if quite normal.

eginnc · June 27, 2024, 11:07pm

56C doesn't seem like a problem. OEM advertises the R4S working temperature is up to 70C.

My Reyee RG E5 (MT7622) dumb AP runs from 61C to 67C, which is typical in the summer. Heat management is not among this device's strong points, but it handles it fine. A Belkin RT3200 dumb AP upstairs (same SoC) is running from 53C to 60C.

what is the best alternative to setup a SMB share driver using the nanopi r4s? would it handle well? im current using it as router with adblock + sqm, since i use a share folder trough my network to stream movies between screens, im planning to setup a usb sdd on the nanopi and use it as NAS SMB.

You can enable shares with a USB 3.0 drive using Ksmbd, or if you want more advanced features Samba, they perform similar: https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/services/nas/ksmbd

Performance is great, most targets from the past half decade can read/write at 100MB/s (nearly saturating gigabit lan) including R4S (e.g. I'm getting >100MB/s with GL-MT6000 and my old WRT32X did 110MB/s).

Could anybody with access to R4S serial logs please try the latest snapshot. Something is completely broken and the R4S does not boot anymore. I tried last weekend and now again ... device does not boot.

Unfortunately I can't take a look at serial logs, but if I had to bet, this could have something to do with git.openwrt.org Git - openwrt/openwrt.git/commit or those initram changes (git.openwrt.org Git - openwrt/openwrt.git/commit),

wjwj · July 12, 2024, 11:45pm

I further narrowed it down, it is definetely this commit (uboot-rockchip: use u-boot-rockchip.bin by RadxaNaoki · Pull Request #15815 · openwrt/openwrt (github.com)), R4S can't boot anymore.

Serial logs would still be highly appreciated, maybe they help to fix this commit.

I am using snapshot (r26886) with that patch and it works fine

wjwj · July 13, 2024, 7:30pm

Sorry, could you clarify? r26886 sounds rather old, current snapshot is r26937. Are you sure that your one includes that patch? If yes, does the current snapshot (r26886) boot on your device?

waynea · July 13, 2024, 8:12pm

I have two external USB drives hanging onto the USB ports. I stream from these over the LAN using Minidlna and the associated LuCi app with kodi on my TV

leeandy · July 14, 2024, 3:18am

r26886 already included pull request#15815 you mentioned
It work fine on my R4S.
