I thought you said the patches from AU_LINUX_QSDK_NHSS.QSDK.12.4.5.R2_TARGET_ALL.12.4.502.099.019 was ready and working for latest version. And that you had compiled with the patches and build to see if it did work.
Anyways, thanks for the input tho.
hmm i got nss build running but cant get higher than 600mbps

which device are you using ? and which repo your forked from for your build?
Linksys MX4200 and im using bittheif repo
does the dts for your device has an include statement for the nss dts ?
something like this
#include "ipq8074.dtsi"
#include "ipq8074-hk-cpu.dtsi"
#include "ipq8074-ess.dtsi"
#include "ipq8074-nss.dtsi"
#include <dt-bindings/gpio/gpio.h>
#include <dt-bindings/input/input.h>
#include <dt-bindings/leds/common.h>
ah no i didnt
yeah that kinda worked

still doesnt seem to hit 1gbps 560mbps at max
hmmm
ERR(nssinfo_lso_rx_stats_display:46) (null) is not running on the NPU
To clarify @rmandrad comment, the qca-nss-drv package is what's being shown in the screenshot, specifically that's it's been compiled with the WiFi offload feature. You still need to apply patches to mac80211/ath11k that will hook into it.
Getting NSS WiFi offload to work has been a constant struggle for years, ever since ipq806x. @quarky, @Ansuel, @ACwifidude, @robimarko and myself have all tried retrofitting Qualcomm's (half baked) ath10/11k NSS patches but have not been successful. There's "some" acceleration support by using encapsulation mode (frame_mode=2) with NSS, but has been unstable/unusable on ipq807x.
FWIW, I recently got a DL-WRX36 myself and have been attempting to try again. Since cherry picking the NSS patches hasn't been fruitful, I figured the best approach would be to start with Qualcomm's fork of mac80211 and overlay upstream's patches on top. I've only just now got it to compile, but the patching is a mess... Haven't been able to boot it unfortunately.
I also suspect hostapd needs to be patched with Qualcomm's fork to properly get the wireless stack usable. But that too is a colossal mess of patches.
don't mix the 2 thing... ath10k had a very simple implementation with virtual interface. ath11k have correct offload. I used for a while offload patch (if correctly applied instead of randomly adapt stuff) but i'm really busy with other task and maintain that isn't really top of my priority now.
Honestly I don't suggest starting from mac80211 qsdk source as you will quickly notice how unusable it is.
i will stop what i was intending in doing (starting by the patches/subsys/199-00(1-3)-mac80211-add-nss-support) ... as you are much further ahead
for reference i was also looking at Ansuel's - https://github.com/Ansuel/openwrt/blob/ipq807x-5.15-pr-wifi-offload/package/kernel/mac80211/patches/ath11k_nss/ that took a similar approach ...
and yes I also suspect that hostapd needs patching ... but hey that's why openwrt is fun 
You may even go further, and see past @Ansuel commit to start support ath11k offload on 5.15:
[WIP] mac80211: add ath11k nss wifi offload · Ansuel/openwrt@3ecaee7 (github.com) and ipq807x: add nss nodes for wifi offload as there you have some already pre-selected patches and code fixes
I did that and for now I get this...

It's a start 
Edit: Just did a quick test with patch:
113-ath11k-add-8023-undecap-support.patch
and that was the reason of all the messages...
ath11k c000000.wifi: encap mismatch in nss tx skb encap type 1vif encap type 2
However, I think we are talking and shaking hands with nss-drv, but hostapd/ath11k does not like what's going on... I added some messages so I could see what they are talking about.

Lesson learned the hard way... After brute forcing 442 of qsdk patches, I got everything to compile and boot up... but shortly after it just crash dumps.
Was it stable for you on 5.15? I'm guessing this was on the Xiaomi AX3600?
Interesting stuff going on here
heres ECM log i get about 500mbps im not sure if its working i have a 1gbps package
https://katb.in/lolilulujak
According to this the NSS cores should be running at 1ghz for the Oak platform (ipq817x)
Some good news. I've got NSS wifi offload working on latest branch of main here: qualcommax-6.1-nss-wifi. Used @dimfish's qualcommax-6.1-nss branch as a starting point.
Everything seems to be working, but it doesn't seem stable. Boots with a ton of:
ath11k c000000.wifi: peer not found for nss peer delete
But it eventually seems to subside. So far it's been up and running for a few hours. Still needs a lot of work.
