My machines are very old and slow. Interested.
I will push the PR once verified that all works, but until then, if you want, simply add this file to the branch you want, modifying the packages you want installed (this is a sample for my device, so I'm sure you need to change some of them):
When pushing the branch to Github, it will build the firmware, it will take a little more than 2 hours usually, but it depends.

Thanks. Need to get familiar to these actions. My mahcine builds a single image 5 ... 8 hours. The whole env takes for ever...
Take into account that I'm trying to figure why the NSS build fails, so the sample pointed is not 100% valid. You can generate your .config by yourself too and upload it with your branck.
It seems my build fails for some code into the patch: 0605-v5.15-qca-add-mcs-support.patch
/home/runner/work/openwrt/openwrt/build_dir/target-mips_24kc_musl/linux-ath79_generic/qca-mcs-2022-03-16-dd8a438/mc_osdep.h:27:16: error: implicit declaration of function 'br_pass_frame_up'; did you mean 'os_br_pass_frame_up'? [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
Some idea of what this is failing? Maybe I need to include something more or change some build parameter?
you are not using ipq807x it seems ...
wild guess check if CONFIG_PACKAGE_bridge is configured ...
Yes, that is what I thought seeing the error, but in theory I'm building IPQ807x. I don't know what have happened.
I will check it, thanks!
I've found that @rodriguezst has got the same idea than me. I see that in his github repo he is building from the Github Action like me. With all the NSS packages he has an error too, but he has achieved a build with only some of the NSS packages enabled. I will try to continue from there.

checked your logs and had
Interesting, you are right, is building the wrong target, but I don't know why. If you look at the beginning of the step, you can see the "creation" of the .config file:
echo "CONFIG_TARGET_ipq807x_generic=y\n" > .config
echo "CONFIG_TARGET_ipq807x_generic_DEVICE_xiaomi_ax3600=y\n" >> .config
echo "CONFIG_TARGET_ALL_PROFILES=y\n" >> .config
echo "CONFIG_TARGET_PER_DEVICE_ROOTFS=y\n" >> .config
echo "CONFIG_TARGET_ROOTFS_INITRAMFS=y\n" >> .config
echo "CONFIG_ALL_NONSHARED=y\n" >> .config
...
I don't know how this ends building the ath79 "carambola2"...
Yes, I was trying to build all the kmods without success. I am getting some errors with some netlink symbols not found:

If I only choose the kmods I need most (VLAN, PPPoE and GRE) there are no build errors:
I tried with your minimal modules version, as you say it build, but something was not right. The clients have problems to connect to internet. Some web pages didn't load. Not too sure about the reason.
Has your build added qca-nss-dp?
It seems that yes:
CONFIG_DEFAULT_kmod-qca-nss-dp=y
Same here. If you find the right combination for the Github Action let me know. I will keep trying too.
Have a look at this fork from @AgustinLorenzo
He has changed some of the makefiles from the NSS feed to fix some compilation issues

I see he is building based on a full .config file and not "echoing" the basic elements. But it has the same errors than me, the bluetooth one building all the IPQ807x devices.
He is trying to fix the issues, so it has more knowledge in C than me 
I will keep an eye on it. Thanks!

Hi boys,
I have made some changes to fix the compilation errors in the NSS, I am reviewing the error that it gives when compiling with kmod-bluetooth.
In the event that it gives me the same compilation error again, I will only leave support for Xiaomi AX3600 and eliminate the rest.
Regards, Agustin

OK I've built with all modules. You can sysupgrade from Official and vice versa with your settings.

Does this work on a stock partition layout? Thanks.
