Please post the output of cat /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy*/netdev*/stations/*/rc_stats while you're doing a speed test with the broken version
Give me a few minutes. I will have to reflash the broken version. Is it okay if I simply flash the current master branch (so all 4 patches included)?
Yes, that's okay

Average # of aggregated frames per A-MPDU: 15.2Hm, those stats look normal, rate control and aggregation seems to work fine.
Please do another round of tests by removing the patches again from a recent build. If it works fine again, add back only patch 327.
I've been reading this change a few times and I still don't see how this could be causing performance issues
Now I am getting speeds that are in between the previous good and previous bad results. I do notice that my fresh pull from master includes two new mac80211 commits. Could these be interfering with my test results? Or maybe I am running into Wifi inference from my neighbors that is messing with the reproducibility of my tests. Hmmm...
Edit: I will now flash a previous build before the Minstrel commit itself. Thereby also reverting the latest mac80211 commits. Will double check if the environment has changed in terms of inference.
It is definitely not the RF environment. Unless I am getting extremely unlucky for some reason. The performance on this commit: https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/openwrt.git;a=commit;h=981cca12b6ce59781d59bda2b42b4ed36f4e37eb
is better than the performance on this commit: https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/openwrt.git;a=commit;h=fb1be20d63f08a07c63bcd5ffb26d010935dfa61
With the Minstrel patches manually deleted.
How big is the difference in your test there? This still doesn't make any sense to me
My results are now all over the place. Maybe it is RF interference after all. Let's see if I can find a quieter channel to test on for results with a lower variance. If not, it might be worthwhile to rerun my tests on Monday once the Neighbors are gone.
Edit: Up to now, I've been testing with 40mhz channel widths. Maybe it would be a good idea to try out 20mhz instead to reduce the impact of other APs? Or is it possible this issue only shows on 40mhz channels? One way to find out I guess. I'll see if I can come up with a setup with reproducible results.
Okay, sorry for the confusion. The latest commits in master seem to be fine. 20mhz channel width and channel 1 is giving me much tighter results. The Minstrel commit does still seem to affect the throughput.
Pre-minstrel commit:
Latest master commit with minstrels patches manually removed (within margin of error compared to the first screenshot):
Latest master commit with minster patch 326 and 327 included (I tried to only include 327, but that resulted in a compilation error, hence 326 was also included):
For the brave souls who want to test a build with 4.14 kernel and flow offload, here is a test build.
Untested since I am not in the vicinity of the router until tomorrow. Flash at your own risk!
I cannot comment on the offload stuff, but I flashed my DIR-860L with a 4.14 kernel a few days ago and I haven't seen anything strange. Haven't run any performance tests though.
Good to know. My build flashes fine and I haven't noticed anything funky yet.
@All, OP updated with a fresh new build. See OP for details, enjoy!
If you want to try out Flow Offload you can do so by running the following command in an ssh terminal:
iptables -I FORWARD 1 -m conntrack --ctstate RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j FLOWOFFLOAD
If you want to disable Flow Offload again, you can revert the change by running the following command in an ssh terminal:
iptables -D FORWARD -m conntrack --ctstate RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j FLOWOFFLOAD
However, you shouldn't use Flow Oflload in a production environment yet for the reasons listed here

Are you also noticing worse WiFi performance compared to your previous build? As mentioned in a few posts earlier, my 2.4 ghz WiFi performance was cut in halve. Removing the Minstrel patches fixed the issue. Are you seeing the same thing? Or is this issue specific to my particular setup?
Yes, 2.4G is only a half speed of the previous version. I tested on my wndr3800ch and wndr3700 v4.
With minstrel patch on wndr3800ch:

Testing wireless performance on r6302 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 418 MBytes 58.4 Mbits/sec sender
[ 4] 0.00-60.00 sec 418 MBytes 58.4 Mbits/sec receiver
5 GHz band connecting at 866.7 Mbps:
[ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth
[ 4] 0.00-60.00 sec 657 MBytes 91.8 Mbits/sec sender
[ 4] 0.00-60.00 sec 657 MBytes 91.8 Mbits/sec receiver
Compared to other builds:
| Build | Band (GHz) | Speed (Mbits/sec) |
|---|---|---|
| r6302 | 2.4 | 58.4 |
| r6302 | 5 | 91.8 |
| r6150 | 2.4 | 56.7 |
| r6150 | 5 | 107 |
| r6009 | 2.4 | 43.7 |
| r6009 | 5 | 40.7 |
| r5442 | 2.4 | 73.5 |
| r5442 | 5 | 57.4 |
To keep it short, 2.4 GHz performance seems unchanged but down from r5442. 5 GHz performs worse then on previous build (r6150) but performs better then previous builds.
Since there have been more mac80211 commits what is the build number of the build you are testing?
@nbd Another person reporting a roughly 50% speed cut with the Minstrel patches. Yet @Bartvz reports unchanged performance. Perhaps it is client dependent? Is there anything else we can do to help pinpoint the issue further?
It's my custom build with the latest master source (2018-02-25).
I applied the fast path patch and some small modification.
Please refer my github repository, use the master-custbuild branch:
@sotux
Hi,I'm interesting to test your custom build for fast patch
so I just select kmod-ipt-offload then put "iptables -D FORWARD -m conntrack --ctstate RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j FLOWOFFLOAD" to firewall.user ? is that right ?
thank you
