I would also like to ask for additional information in regard to Packet steering and Software and Hardware flow offloading for clarity.
From what I have seen on the Qualcommax NSS Build post, we should leave those disabled when using NSS builds. Could you confirm that?
I don't want to pollute this thread with NSS discussion too much, since the focus is meant to get upstream support for MX4300/MX4200. Better to discuss over in the Qualcommax NSS Build thread instead.
In the meantime, I just pushed a rough draft of documenting everything NSS related and some notes on best practices.

## Overview
This repository contains a fork of OpenWrt that integrates Qualcomm's NSS (Network Subsystem) support for the IPQ807x and IPQ6018 series of SoCs. The goal of this project is to provide enhanced network performance and reliability through hardware offloading, leveraging NSS's capabilities to improve throughput and reduce CPU load.
