rsalvaterra: exactly, so we should not even start using it, but implement what upstream demanded (which is not hard to do)
<rsalvaterra>
Yes, just a bit more intrusive, for sure.
<rsalvaterra>
In any case, I'll defer implementing the BusyBox part until there's a more upstreamable version of kabel's iproute2 patch.

<hurricos>
so one of the casualties of mvsw61xx being dropped was the loss of drivers for avanta SoCs
<hurricos>
Avanta is a feroceron, but unlike kw is clocked higher, can use DDR3, but cannot be kwbooted
<hurricos>
it's sort of a "black sheep" (considering both armada and kirkwood are amenable to kwboot)
<hurricos>

<hurricos>
there was an ... interesting discussion about Avanta on Doozan here: https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,78499,page=10 .... but I don't think it was productive, lol
<hurricos>
that said, bodhi's commentary on that page about the simplicity of porting the DSA driver suggests that it might be achievable
<hurricos>
ultimately the problem is that without kwboot, uhh
<hurricos>
it's hard to care about the SoC :^)
<hurricos>
I say avanta can't be kwbooted, but msdos3/8086k has Github releases of U-boot which include a uart.bin file
<hurricos>
and I can't imagine what that is if not a kwbootable file :squinting:
<hurricos>
documentation is hard.
<hurricos>
yeah, it's ... compiled using Marvell's doimage -T uart, which assembles it for use with Xmodem, but ...
<hurricos>
What makes this an interesting target for me is the number of devices that make use of it. Aruba AP135 comes to mind as an abundandly available device.

<hurricos>
I was able to pull a copy of the AP135's flash, fwiw. The OEM's u-boot on most Aruba devices does some RSA verification, but ...
<hurricos>
this one puts the cert in storage, and it has a copy of mm.
<hurricos>
I will say though
<hurricos>
I'm digging through flash and finding things like
<hurricos>
"what do ya want for nothing?
<hurricos>
and I figure this is just a song-reference, but ...
<hurricos>
then I find repeated references to it being used as some kind of IV or sample string in u-boot crypto code
<neggles>
that bluetooth antenna is second only to an old ruckus zoneflex 3x3 802.11n AP I was given, which has a nineteen-element 3D active antenna
<neggles>
the 802.11n era was wild
<neggles>
now it's all software :(
<slh>
yeah, but sadly 802.11ac and 802.11ax are really much faster, while 802.11n didn't really improve 802.11g all that much (especially not the earlier designs)
<hurricos>
I mean @slh
<Namidairo>
apart from the whole no 11ac in 2.4ghz
<hurricos>
you can get practically 350mbit/s
<slh>
correct
<hurricos>
with 11n
<slh>
with 802.11ax, 2.4 GHz gets another boost though
<neggles>
g/a are realistically 10-20ish mbps, I found 11n was realistically 100ish mbps in a 20mhz channel
<Namidairo>
just uhh, ignore those old clients
<neggles>
(when you have other clients sharing and non-perfect signal)
<neggles>
yeaaaah the main benefits of AX in 2.4GHz are the power saving stuff for upcoming IoT devices
<neggles>
2.4GHz is a lost cause at this point :P
<Namidairo>
it might be a while until people switch over to the esp32-c6
<neggles>
especially since i wouldn't expect to see modules etc. actually be available till probably Q3
<neggles>
it'll be a long while 'till we're rid of 2.4GHz 11n clients
srslypascal has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
<slh>
if only the IoT stuff (including the esp8266/ esp8285) could do WPA3...
<neggles>
ESP32-C3 can!
<slh>
yes, but commercial stuff still comes with esp8285
<neggles>
tuya are moving to the C3 and a few other manufacturers' SoCs
<neggles>
and they're going to be the main driver
<slh>
that would indeed be an improvement (not so much the other SOCs, though)

hi! I just found out today that the DecoM5 does use openwrt after all, but needs to be compiled, etc. I've seen some people on the forum sending a pre compiled binary. Is there anyone online with that file? Please?
<openwrter>
I've only compiled some simple things within linux (Rpi and/or amd64) but never inside a router. Is this even possible for a non-programmer mortal?
<Habbie>
hello
<openwrter>
The DecoM5 is a TPLink product. Was usually happy eith their products, but whern I learned these things *had to be used* as a router and within a smartphone app I thought "na, there's got to be a linux way"
<Habbie>
i am a programmer, so i'm biased, but i don't think building your own openwrt images (given support for your platform is present etc.) is hard
<Habbie>
have you ever, perhaps, compiled a linux kernel?
<openwrter>
yes
<Habbie>
used make menuconfig?
<openwrter>
yes
<Habbie>
you're ready
<Habbie>
:)
<openwrter>
I did it many years ago though, I'm too spoiled by Debian now
<openwrter>
apt-get
<Habbie>
reserve 20GB of diskspace, clone the openwrt repo, run make menuconfig
<openwrter>
et al
<Habbie>
sure, same here
<openwrter>
where should I do this, if inside of a amd64 system, will a .bin compatible file be generated in the end? Also, I have no idea of what's inside (I don-t think I can answer the questions) like when building a kernel for a PC you built yourself or can ask via lsusb or lspci or whatever...
<Habbie>
i see
<Habbie>
i see no mention of decom5 in the openwrt git tree
<Habbie>
amd64 is not a problem, you pick your target in menuconfig and the right things will happen
<openwrter>
can i post a link?
<Habbie>
however, usually what you pick is a router that's already in that list
<Habbie>
it would be github.com/bdherouville/openwrt
<openwrter>
so far so good, thanks

Hi! When running make menuconfig it complains about libpam missing, APT installed this one "Note, selecting 'libpam0g-dev' instead of 'libpam-dev'" How can I tell the make to use 'libpam0g-dev' instead of 'libpam-dev' ??
<Habbie>
is menuconfig refusing to run, or just complaining a bit?
<openwrter>
just complaining
<Habbie>
try ignoring it for now :)

just going with defaults, you think that will work?

did you pick the deco m5 target?
<openwrter>
it said atheros something
<Habbie>
then no
<openwrter>
Target system? Deco N/A
<Habbie>
ah
<Habbie>
then yes
<Habbie>
although i'd expect m5 there
<openwrter>
ATHEROS ATH79 was the sone selected by default
<openwrter>
I'll see if I can find the chipset soimewhere in the web
<Habbie>
i think you want to pick Qualcomm Atheros IPQ40XX there
<Habbie>
and then pick your deco in Target Profile
