Core components update
Update Linux from 5.15.162 to 5.15.167
Update mac80211 from 6.1.97-1 to 6.1.110-1
Update openssl from 3.0.14 to 3.0.15
Update mbedtls from 2.28.8 to 2.28.9
Upgrading to 23.05.5
Sysupgrade can be used to upgrade a device from 22.03 to 23.05, and configuration will be preserved in most cases.
Sysupgrade from 21.02 to 23.05 is not officially supported.
ipq40xx EA6350v3, EA8300, MR8300 and WHW01 require tweak to the U-Boot environment on update from 22.03 to 23.05. Refer to the Device wiki or the instruction on sysupgrade on how to do this change. Config needs to be reset on sysupgrade.
OpenWrt 23.05.5 was signed with the wrong signing keys. The keys from OpenWrt snapshot were used for OpenWrt 23.05.5, OpenWrt 23.05.4, OpenWrt 23.05.3, OpenWrt 23.05.2, OpenWrt 23.05.0 and the release candidates. A later OpenWrt 23.05 service release will use a different key.
Linksys E8450 UBI: almost successful. Out of the box, software flow offload works, even for PPPoE:
Problems:
It didn't detect devices connected to the USB hub after the reboot. The hub itself was detected:
root@OpenWrt:~# lsusb
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux 5.15.167 xhci-hcd xHCI Host Controller
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 1a86:8095 USB Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux 5.15.167 xhci-hcd xHCI Host Controller
After unplugging and replugging it, the devices also showed up:
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 12d1:1506 HUAWEI_MOBILE HUAWEI_MOBILE
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0003 Linux 5.15.167 xhci-hcd xHCI Host Controller
Bus 001 Device 005: ID 152d:2338 JMicron USB to ATA/ATAPI bridge
Bus 001 Device 003: ID 1a86:8095 USB Hub
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux 5.15.167 xhci-hcd xHCI Host Controller
EDIT: the USB hub and connected devices survived another router reboot without issues.
When can we expect support for eip93 in OpenWrt firmware version 24.x.x?
I have a device based on the MT7621 chipset, and eip93 support is crucial for improving hardware encryption performance. Is there any information on plans to include this driver in a future release?
Sorry if this is the wrong place to report stuff; lemme know if I should move this to GitHub.
@Drop Are you using a custom build by any chance? I found that when I did a custom build, I got a smaller package list that excluded certain wifi-related packages.
Here's the diff of opkg list-installed between default and custom builds:
Tp Link archer c60 v3, after system upgrading from 23.03.4 to 23.03.5, wifi 5 ghz radio is disappeared from luci. Only 2.4 ghz is working -_- This is a custom firmware made from openwrt firmware selector.
Had the same issue with an Archer C7 v5. No 5 Ghz after update to 23.03.05.
I noticed that the custom bin file from the firmware selector was smaller (6107 KB) than the regular generic bin file (6273 KB).
There seems to be some stuff missing.
After flashing the generic bin file everything seems to work fine (incl. 5 GHz).
With custom build image (https://firmware-selector.openwrt.org) for R7800 (generic ipq806x) no WiFi radio's because the firmware package ath10k-firmware-qca9984-ct is not included in the build. Post sysupgrade install of that package or building the image again, now with the qca9984 firmware included, solved the problem.
Also kmod-ramoops is missing. Seems the firmware selector does not include the device_packages (as shown in profiles.json).
