Optimized build for the D-Link DIR-860L

Bartvz · February 15, 2018, 5:29pm

And, it's up! Enjoy!
Testing wireless performance on r6150 with iperf3 running for 60 seconds yields the following results:

2.4 GHz band connecting at 144 Mbps:
[ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth
[ 4] 0.00-60.00 sec 405 MBytes 56.7 Mbits/sec sender
[ 4] 0.00-60.00 sec 405 MBytes 56.7 Mbits/sec receiver

5 GHz band connecting at 866.7 Mbps:
[ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth
[ 4] 0.00-60.00 sec 769 MBytes 107 Mbits/sec sender
[ 4] 0.00-60.00 sec 769 MBytes 107 Mbits/sec receiver

This is better then on r6009, which gave me 43.7 for 2.4 GHz band and 40.7 for 5 GHz band. Compared to r5442, which had 73.5 Mbits/sec for the 2.4GHz band and 57.4 Mbits/sec for the 5 GHz band, the 2.4 GHz band performance is a bit down but the 5 GHz band perfomance has doubled.

> r6150:
> 5G 	(144 Mb/s ?)  69.7 Mbits/sec
> 144 Mb/s
> 2.4G	  (144 Mb/s )	64.9 Mbits/sec
> --------------------------------------------------------------
> r6022
> 5G              57.6 Mbits/sec
> 2.4G          51.4 Mbits/sec

r6150 is faster also on my side.
Some questions:
1)Bartvz do you have your iperf server on a PC connected through LAN to the router or do you have a iperf server installed directly on your router?
2) Why I have only 144 Mb/s for both 2.4G and 5G? I use my laptop in front of the router....I'll try more tests next week changing channels and settings in order to understand if it is a issue of my wan card/drivers or it is related to the router settings

Many thanks for these great releases!

iperf3 is included in my builds. In a SSH terminal type" "iperf3 -s [options]"
That's odd, could you post your wireless config (/etc/config/wireless)?

@Bartvz take a look at the very last comment in this thread: https://github.com/lede-project/source/pull/1269#issuecomment-367056477

Looks mighty interesting Any chance we could see a build with offloading included? Really curious how it will affect WAN speeds

Mushoz · February 20, 2018, 7:45pm

Actually, I believe these patches require the 4.14 kernel, which RAMIPS is not using yet at the moment. So it is a waiting game for now, I think.

xabolcs · February 20, 2018, 7:55pm

The 4.14 kernel support is in the tree.
Building a k4.14 image for ramips is a one-line change.

Ok, the result image could be buggy, but that is why it called SNAPSHOT.

Bartvz · February 20, 2018, 9:14pm

Compiling a build with the 4.14 kernel and kmod-ipt-flow now, fingers crossed!

Edit: And it failed At the moment, I don't have time to figure out why but I'll see what I can do the rest of the week.

xabolcs · February 21, 2018, 7:19am

I had a successful build, but the router didn't survived the dirty sysupgrade.

No time for recover, yet.

Edit:
Built from be4781f5ee17a9facea6bb0cf1906269de788db8 with kmod-ipt-flow included (not as a module), the router boots, but it dies with orange power LED after failsafe.
Entering failsafe mode didn't helped me to access the router, need to flash squasfs-factory.bin through stock recovery.

Will try to build a k4.14 image from the branching point 9595a9e8d398476b1eaa5a541fb2c3bfece34587.

Mushoz · February 21, 2018, 1:23pm

Wouldn't it be a good idea to first compile the master branch with kernel 4.14 just to check if ramips is properly working with the 4.14 kernel in the first place, without trying to include the offload stuff? This is the only 4.14 kernel commit for ramips: https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/openwrt.git;a=commit;h=f4e5880d0f3496a3151fe24d87ca2d08d3403a83

And I am not entirely sure how well preliminary support is supposed to work. One step at a time

xabolcs · February 21, 2018, 2:45pm

Hahh! There is!

Some k4.14 + MT7621 related commit just landed on master.

Bartvz · February 21, 2018, 3:01pm

Compiling again

xabolcs · February 21, 2018, 6:46pm

Me too!
From current master + nbd's branch current head.

Successful boot:

I didn't tested the flow module now. I'm just happy that the router boots and the module is loaded.

Mushoz · February 21, 2018, 8:30pm

Very cool! Please let me know once you get the offloading working

Mushoz · February 22, 2018, 10:33am

The patches have hit the master branch now

Bartvz · February 22, 2018, 10:51am

Yup + this commit. My last attempt failed (again) but I have time to look into it tomorrow. Hopefully I'll get it to build and hopefully flow offload will play nice with SQM.

Mushoz · February 22, 2018, 1:48pm

How do I change it to kernel 4.14? Would like to try and compile it myself as well

Bartvz · February 22, 2018, 1:50pm

sed -i 's/=4.9/=4.14/' target/linux/ramips/Makefile

Mushoz · February 22, 2018, 2:02pm

What are the kernel modules that need to be included? @nbd mentioned kmod-ipt-flow, but in menuconfig I am only able to find kmod-ipt-offload, kmod-nf-flow and kmod-nft-offload.

Bartvz · February 22, 2018, 2:14pm

To my knowledge you will only need kmod-nf-flow for Flow Offload

nbd · February 22, 2018, 2:16pm

I renamed the package. You need kmod-ipt-offload, which selects kmod-nf-flow
