jow: ack
<f00b4r0>
jow: speaking of luci fixes, dunno if that's something easy to fix but the wireguard app is unreadable in dark mode. grey text on dark grey background: zero contrast
<jow>
you mean the app, not the proto?
<f00b4r0>
yeah the status page
<jow>
imho it's crap anyway
<jow>
I'd rather drop it
<jow>
badly formatted, full of bugs
<f00b4r0>
also i don't know if that's relevant but the info elements are scattered and take a lot more space than they did in prior releases
<f00b4r0>
well it's very convenient, if it can be salvaged it'd be nice
<jow>
don't have access to a test system to fix it
<f00b4r0>
but the formatting changes are certainly not an improvement
<dhewg>
\x: it's usable with openssl engines, but if the idea is to use that for wifi stuff I think that's generally not working so good
<jow>
imho luci-proto-wireguard should simply ship the relevant bits to add a status display
<f00b4r0>
I can possibly help with that, it shouldn't be too hard to set up a playground for you
<jow>
and luci-app-wireguard should be kill with fire
<f00b4r0>
lol
<f00b4r0>
as long as I get some status report of my wg links, I'm happy :)
<jow>
yeah, ssh access to some x86 router participating in some wiregaurd network would likely suffice
<jow>
s/x86 router/x86 vm/
<f00b4r0>
*nod*
<f00b4r0>
I'll try to set you up, will keep in touch

dhewg: what things do I need to enable on the build to use it?
<\x>
like on menuconfig and kernel menuconfig
<robimarko>
\x: Only crypto acceleration on IPQ40xx is the QCE engine
<robimarko>
And that is not so great
<\x>
like its worse than using the cpu?
<robimarko>
For certains sizes yes
<robimarko>
I know that dhewg had a whole forum thread with tests
<robimarko>
If you want to use it with openssl then you need devcrypto or something like that
<dhewg>
I I've tried it and commented about it somewhere, but that wasn't a thread I created?
<dhewg>
but there're various infos on the issue tracker about it
<dhewg>
some are in #10042, that's not the crypto engine for ipq, but you'd find some infos in there
<robimarko>
Oh yeah, I think you made an PR and posted a bunch of stuff there
<dhewg>
there's a dev branch with sg support, which is included in his mac80211 6.1-rc4 bump, no clue if that improves the situation, haven't tried it yet
<dhewg>
and yeah, it all sounds promising, but it's not there yet
<dhewg>
but the pads look okayish to solder if I chose to
<robimarko>
Yeah, it does not look hard to solder new coax

<jow> we should come up wirth a better naming schema

Phones use like 4/5/6 indicating what it is atleast

but that kinda feels like weird on luci haha

No, please lets not dumb it down like that

yeah itll feel weird too
<dhewg>
nbd: this looks a rebase hiccup? https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/staging/nbd.git;a=blob;f=package/kernel/mac80211/patches/ath9k/040-ath9k-support-DT-ieee80211-freq-limit-property-to-li.patch;h=65ed2bb9b342f8b230f68574efb470ff90827f97;hb=a1b61dd2014394bb45049a49c368555d6ef5e805
<\x>
on my ipq60xx its like acaxn, axbgn, on 40xx its acn and bgn, but hot damn dual band radios will be like acaxbgn
<\x>
then when w7 comes itll be like acaxbegn maybe killing b support, if theres b then acaxbbegn?
<\x>
wtf man
<dhewg>
markering 101, more is better. liek axHUGENUMBER
<\x>
dhewg: then my IPQ4019 with MT7921U should be 3000+1300, damn, ipq4019 doing AX4300 now. 400+867 + 600+1200+1200
<hgl>
jow, any reason LAN interface's ipv6 link-local address is not exposed in ubus? Some users seem to want to access LuCI with it. Should "ip addr show" be parsed instead or link-local should be avoid for some reason? https://github.com/openwrt/packages/issues/11847
<robimarko>
Just add a slash so its ac/ax/b/g/n
<robimarko>
Much more readable
<\x>
robimarko: so how does this bdwlan thing works? If I build it in, I dont need that board.bin right?
<robimarko>
\x: bdwlan is just raw BDF
<\x>
maybe in the weekend ill have a spin on using vendor's firmware and include those in, I saw one kirdesde's branch doing the same
<robimarko>
\x: That makes no sense
<robimarko>
I dont get what you are trying to achieve
<robimarko>
But be warned, it will likely break newer FW
<\x>
I do have them robimarko, but yeah thats why I was asking about it
<\x>
ill have a spin on weekend
<\x>
so are these files like mix and matchable? like I can use that 2.7 firmware with bdwlan from vendor?
<\x>
or go full vendor with everything
<\x>
then no more board-2.bin
<robimarko>
Its hit and miss
<robimarko>
Cause, they are constantly adding new stuff to the BDF-s
<\x>
I guess I'll see what a good combo is
<robimarko>
And while its supposed to be backwards compatible with the old BDF its really hit and miss
<robimarko>
Depends on how old/what FW did the vendor generate BDF based on
<robimarko>
But I would newer use the ancient Q6 FW that vendors ship
<\x>
what linksys does is they change country at boot after getting its location, so it replaces bdwlan.bin its like this https://rimgo.bus-hit.me/JXVKXfw.png
<\x>
and I cant find board-2.bin anywhere for the linksys, some devices got them recently though I dont know where lean gets them
<robimarko>
You dont get board-2.bin, you generate it
<\x>
ooooh
<robimarko>
Its just a wrapper for multiple BDF-s
<\x>
do I just concatenate these?
<\x>
ahaha
<robimarko>
No, there is a tool called ath11k-bdencoder
<\x>
ill have a look on it, thanks for lighting the way
<\x>
maaan, the instructions are too vague on this bdencoder script
<nbd>
dhewg: fixed, thanks
<\x>
robimarko: so board-2.bin are basically just amalgamation of multiple bdwlan files? since theyre all 65535 in size and fast look on strings they seems the samesies
<robimarko>
\x: Its a wrapper
<\x>
i extracted them using the tool
<robimarko>
It allows specifying on what do you match each specific one
<\x>
i used the default boardfile as an example and it gave me a json and spit out a lot of files 65535 bytes in size
<robimarko>
And it should be like that
<\x>
i thought whats inside are those q6 and m3 files
<robimarko>
Q6 and M3 are the FW for remoteprocessor
<\x>
it spit files like
<\x>
'bus=ahb,qmi-chip-id=0,qmi-board-id=48.bin'
<\x>
hmm, those numbers feels like country codes?
<robimarko>
No
<robimarko>
That is just string on which the driver will match and extract one of those
<\x>
ah
<G10h4ck>
Hi!
G10h4ck has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
G10h4ck has joined #openwrt-devel
<\x>
so I need to match these numbering robimarko
<\x>
basically I can just make all of those use PH bdwlan and then itll alow me to do channel 12 and 13? default boarfile limits me to whats the same with US and PH so I cant use 12 and 13
<robimarko>
\x: No, you are overthinking this
<robimarko>
You just need to figure out which one the stock FW uses
<robimarko>
And then package it
<robimarko>
For testing just place the stock bdwlan.bin and remove board-2.bin
<robimarko>
As driver still supports that as fallback
<robimarko>
But I doubt that it will allow you 12 and 13 due to regulatory
<\x>
stock FW does like boot as world regd, get the location of the AP with ipgeolocation, if country is available, copy ath11k/IPQ6018/XX/bdwlan.bin to ath11k/IPQ6018/hw_1.0/bdwlan.bin
<\x>
so which do I replace? it spit out multiple files
<\x>
or basically I just replace *.bin with PH/bdwlan.bin
<\x>
so all of them
<robimarko>
\x: Again, just copy the damn bdwlan.bin to /lib/firmware/ath11k/...
<\x>
oh, i can go that route?
<robimarko>
Yeah
<\x>
my bad didnt get it
<robimarko>
Just remove the board-2.bin
<\x>
okay
<\x>
thanks man
<robimarko>
And driver will load whatever is named bdwlan.bin
<robimarko>
Just make sure to find what stock FW uses
<\x>
yup
<robimarko>
You need the board-id it uses
<robimarko>
And then its one of the bdwlan.bX
<robimarko>
Usually they symlink one of those to bdwlan.bin
<\x>
all of those files are used, they just copy it over once they get geolocation data, and so yeah since I want to operate legally here in my country, then ill copy over PH/bdwlan.bin
<\x>
basically linksys boot is like, open wifi but with world regd, if has internet, get country code, if country code has a bdwlan, copy that bdwlan over, then reload wifi

god it really pisses me off that openwrt-devel only accepts plain text emails :P</rant>
<stintel>
heh, I wish it would also filter out top-posting
<f00b4r0>
;P
<f00b4r0>
top-posting has some valid uses tho
<f00b4r0>
anyway my last reply to Sebastian only went through to cake m-l (which correctly parses multipart emails), and reposting would only add insult to injury, so I'll leave it be

it works robimarko, but the fallback thing didnt? so what I did is i used ath11k-bdencoder and then put PH/bdwlan.bin on both 11.bin and 255.bin
<\x>
im testing far away and im getting 470Mbps
<\x>
on iperf3
<\x>
and yeah what it loaded is board id 0xff so 255
<\x>
and it doesnt crash now on wifi turn on turn off!

danitool has quit [Ping timeout: 480 seconds]
<\x>
robimarko: much thanks! performance is now on par with vendor, so I guess the reason on why the fallback didnt work is it loads up 0xff board id
<\x>
but I inserted PH/bdwlan.bin on the board-2.bin and sent it back via scp
<\x>
now I get 700Mbps on it (I had to unplug it downstairs and bring it back here) :D
<\x>
no more of that 350~400Mbps when im literally beside it!
<\x>
fucking thanks man
<\x>
-- so basically grab vendor bdwlan, add it in via bdencoder ass board id 255, itll spit out board-2.bin! and thats way faster than whatever the generic boardfile from ath11k-bdf.git
<robimarko>
\x: Oh, I told you wrong
<robimarko>
The fallback is named board.bin
<robimarko>
Channels are still due to outdated regulatory

nbd: I've been working on an mt7621 device the past few days and have most of the hardware working now, but had trouble getting the bootloader to regularly boot initramfs firmware without `fit-relocate` which I found in your staging tree.
