MT7621's Hardware Flow Offloading combined with the VLAN filtering feature works on 19.07 (very low CPU usage) but it does not on 21.02 (huge CPU usage).
Hmmm... That's very strange why swconfig shows VLANs 1 and 2 at default via SSH however VLAN 1 shows in Network > Switch under Luci.just how 02_network looks like!
Now another issue i found is that deleting VLANs swconfig seems to think i have this setup.
Result 2: It starts to loose leases on each client once the actual lease time is over.
I forced a ipconfig/renew6 on hosts 'station10' and 'GL503VD' to illustrate that, the leases disappeared from the list (and of course the hosts lost Stateful/reserved addresses):
station10 and GL503VD are not there anymore:
if I reset the value to 12h the hosts are able again to get the leases:
If you mean whether or not during the 21.02 cycle we will ever update the kernel to >= 5.10 the answer is no. Such kernel updates are usually only done on master way before branching off a stable.
but before, I just want to tell that it also breaks IPV6-PD to downstream routers, the downstream router is a Fritz!box4040 running 19.07.7 r11306-c4a6851c72:
Do you see anything in kernel log when those devices try for a DHCPv6?
Cannot say authoritatively. Probably should affect only that.
Anyway, I observe the same thing: my DHCPv6 clients seem to disappear from LuCI DHCPv6 status if lease-time is not 12h...
Does it help to set ra_useleasetime 1 also?
I tried it, and my devices at least come back with 12h leases, even if leasetime is set to 9h or 50m.
Wireshark shows identical DHCPv6 Confirm/Reply for 12h and 50m with ra_useleasetime 1 and with ra_useleasetime 0 on my macbook.
Thx for you tests, still with your snapshost build ?
I will test that tomorrow, 2h20 A.M here.
For me leases disappears from Luci also, but worst, clients loose their fixed IP (just have to wait for the lease expiration ... or do a renew or a WAN6 interface restart on downstream routers)
Up to date v21.02.0-rc2 packages. Reproducible in various combinations, no matter of vlan filtering is actually enabled or not. Seems ports of previously opened bridges are caches somewhere. Survives re-login and browser restart (screenshots are from fresh new session).
