stintel: hi, FYI it seems like the buildbot with nick owrt-images-builds is not able to /msg here, mt7620 build failed 7 hours ago on openwrt-23.05 branch, but no update here, maybe that user needs some flag?
<guidosarducci>
Build dependency: Please install GNU 'install'... This is on "Make prereq" for MACOS. Any ideas?
<ynezz>
guidosarducci: I would suspect f75204036ccc
<guidosarducci>
ynezz: hmmm, took a look but nothing jumps out. What do think is happening?
<guidosarducci>
ynezz: I'm trying to rerun "Build tools with macos latest" with debug enabled...
<ynezz>
guidosarducci: its just a wild guess as it was working before that commit, but it might be just a conincidence with some macOS runner/brew packages update
<ynezz>
so that install command was installed by default previously, but needs to be installed explicitly now
<ynezz>
I don't know that ecosystem, so can't check which package should provide that install command
<guidosarducci>
ynezz: right, I'm in the same boat. Also seeing other strange CI failures too e.g. failure download from CDN
<ynezz>
yes, azure seems to be having some network issues lately
<ynezz>
we've two buildworkers there and I can see those reconnecting quite often
<ldir>
guidosarducci: my workaround at the moment is to swap the order of install, ginstall tests in prereq-build.mk
<ldir>
I don't understand why it's failing though 'cos in theory it's supposed to check for the command returning 'GNU' which the inbuilt doesn't so should fall through to the ginstall test that will/should find it in /usr/local/bin
<ynezz>
so install is part of xcode install?
<ynezz>
and gnu install is which brew package?
<Habbie>
coreutils i think
<ldir>
don't know where native install comes from...might be part of base OS, might be part of xcode/xcode-commandline-tools.
<ldir>
ginstall is part of coreutils

<guidosarducci>
ldir: hey, Kevin. thanks, let me poke around a bit...
<ldir>
guidosarducci: no problem Tony, got bitten by this late last night and it was my quick & dirty hack. I still don't understand why the command check is stopping at install and not falling through to check ginstall.
<guidosarducci>
I've fixed macos issues before, but the memories are so bad I suppress them, and can't remember anything now... xcode?
<ldir>
apple's development tools/ide - or the commandline only version is available, which is a pre-req for homebrew packages.
<guidosarducci>
So I assume this affects everyone hitting our Github PR CI?
<ynezz>
it affects all macOS users, yes
<ynezz>
if you revert that commit f75204036ccc it works fine?
<ynezz>
ldir: ^
<ldir>
almost certainly, but I haven't checked - don't have time this morning to check...off to hospital shortly.
<guidosarducci>
ldir: hope all's ok... remember wallet close and sphincters tight.
<EqUaTe>
guidosarducci: that depends on if you're in the american system or not. if you're not, you can leave your wallet at home ;) (assuming a vaguely developed nation, at least)
<EqUaTe>
and given the time of day, I'd suggest that's reasonably likely
<f00b4r0>
ynezz: so it seems everything worked as intended with -23.05 buildbot? :)
<ynezz>
f00b4r0: yeah, builds went fine, good work :)
<f00b4r0>
woohoo

has someone encountered a problem with mt76 driver? I have mt7915e, and for the last several days my wifi stops working and I have to unbind and rebind the mt76 driver
<Znevna>
also the font on that website makes it very hard to distinguish l from I
<dwfreed>
Znevna: +I is the prefered method; +e is specific to oftc-hybrid and will be going away when we switch to solanum
<Znevna>
I see
<f00b4r0>
jow: is there a canonical example for ucode/ubus API? I'm trying to get a ucode program to show data output on ubus call
gladiac has joined #openwrt-devel
<stintel>
dwfreed: yeah what I was wondering was if +I bypassed +M ;)
<stintel>
but since we have +R, we don't need +M anymore
<stintel>
Znevna: your messages did read the channel, I set +I for the buildbots, the stuff I pasted was from the link you shared
<Znevna>
that part wasn't directed at you :P but at ynezz I think that wrote something about SASL instead of adding an easy exception for the bots
<Znevna>
lost the logs since I was from mobile
<Znevna>
ah there are logs online :P
<Znevna>
enyc, not ynezz. sorry :)
<Znevna>
but now that I read it again it seems it wasn't for the bots but just something regarding the +R channel mode
<stintel>
I would say if you didn't setup SASL ydiw anyway ;)
<stintel>
ah it's not SASL here, cert auth
<stintel>
CertFP*
<dwfreed>
stintel: +v on a user is a bypass to +M, for future reference
<dwfreed>
but obviously this can't be done on masks

hi. i'm interested in learning how to build a device image for https://openwrt.org/toh/netgear/wndr3700 . i have prior experience in packaging / ports based distros. what's the entry point to building an image for it and fiddling with packages ?
<Znevna>
what would be the purpose?
<EqUaTe>
Piraty: you follow the standard build guide, and select that device. if you want to start with an image that matches the supplied ones, then alter that, get the config from the web and deposit that into your checkout.
* EqUaTe
uses it to build updated oidentd packages for openwrt on those devices
<EqUaTe>
that said, wndr3700 is getting *old* now
<Piraty>
Znevna: learn about what the image is built from, if it's maintained at all, if i can improve
<Piraty>
yes, old
<Piraty>
EqUaTe: will do
<EqUaTe>
they're generic images mostly. you can customise it to suit your own usage
<EqUaTe>
but there isn't anything about the device that requires special images or specific maintenance.

can i make it use local clone of openwrt-packages?
<EqUaTe>
do you mean use a local repo for packages when installing them? yes. dunno how you might configure that at build time, can't recall if that's an option or not
<Piraty>
after `make defconfig` i get tons of "WARNING: Makefile 'package/feeds/packages/chrony/Makefile' has a dependency on 'libcap', which does not exist"

<hurricos>
kabel: might be a power issue. Where is the card used?
<hurricos>
kabel: you can try to see if you have the same issue after strongly limiting tx power. I mean literal bus power, the AsiaRF cards pull a LOT of current
<Piraty>
how to properly make openwrt use ccache for host tools as well?
<Piraty>
CONFIG_CCACHE=y doesn't seem to affect the build of host tools
<Piraty>
a wait i guess it build ccache as part of host tools and uses that for target build?
<Piraty>
PATH="/usr/lib/ccache/bin:$PATH" does the job for host tools
<Piraty>
oh no it does not
<f00b4r0>
Piraty: the benefit of ccache for host tools is limited, unless you intend to purge the tree between every build
<Piraty>
i killed it a few times and had the impression it would rebuild all of it, esp cmake takes long
<schmars[m]>
i have another request - our falter builds make use of https://openwrt.org/_media/toh_dump_tab_separated.gz to pick and choose certain packages for certain devices (mostly 32mb/8mb variants). recently i'm getting 429 Too Many Requests very quickly. maybe we can have that file synced to the downloads mirror once a day or so?

Hello everyone, so I received an e-mail that contained a link to dowload the tarball for the linux kernel source code, but noticed there is no mention of my router name in README and a buildroot tarball missing as well. Do I just send out another e-mail to the support team to tell them I require not only just the code, but also build tools for the router?
<slendi>
I think I am going to do it
<PaulFertser>
slendi: why do you bother much, is the board really that different from those already supported?
<slendi>
I think so, the buildroot tarball is 32bit specifically mentioned with a newer gcc versino
<slendi>
version
<PaulFertser>
slendi: but OpenWrt is using upstream gcc anyway.
<PaulFertser>
slendi: have you already published vendor boot log somewhere?
<slendi>
No
<PaulFertser>
slendi: have you tried booting an "initramfs" OpenWrt image for a similar board?
<PaulFertser>
slendi: probably you shouldn't really bother much with the source code from the vendor anyway.
<slendi>
Someone already tried but with no real success from what I can see from the forum
<PaulFertser>
slendi: why do not you try yourself and start sharing the logs at least here?
<slendi>
Why does the wiki mention the source code from the vendor though? in hacking first steps and adding new platform?
<slendi1>
Yes, he created a new topic under the development section but has layed dormant
<Znevna>
did you get that great hardware for free?:P
<slendi1>
Nah I bought it
<slendi1>
After I bought it I found out about openwrt and tried to install it on my router. Since no firmware is available, because of no support, I decided to have some fun in trying to port it. Did some kernel hacking on Gentoo and stuff so I figured I could get my head around this stuff. Also have some experience with buildroot but yeah
<slendi1>
Now I lay in confusion on how I should approach porting this, I do not even know if I can use an already-made platform lol
<Znevna>
x.x
<Znevna>
what's the confusing part?
<slendi1>
If I can use a platform already made or I need to make a new one
<slendi1>
Ok I am going to pack this router up put the feet back (except for one, sure no one will notice ever) and try to remember where I've put that recepit
<Znevna>
here's hoping that they won't check it for tampering :)
<slendi1>
oh god the box is so dusty its a miracle
<Borromini>
should have been a hint when you bought it :P
gladiac has quit [Quit: k thx bye]
<Znevna>
it's a miracle that they sold it in 2023, yes :P
<slendi1>
to be fair I do not think I can return it at this point LOL
<slendi1>
I will just put it up for sale and get a the other one
<Borromini>
fingers crossed :)
<slendi1>
Thank you guys for your time
<Znevna>
.. how long ago did you buy it?
<slendi1>
i frankly don't remember
<Znevna>
you can't return it then
<Znevna>
rofl
<slendi1>
i was having hopes but then i looked at the box]
<slendi1>
yeah
<Znevna>
you can't even use it as a switch because of those 100Mbps ports
<Znevna>
doorstop
<Borromini>
slendi1: next time, join IRC or consult the forums before deciding on a purchase :)
<Borromini>
i made the same 'mistake' on my first router purchases though, happens to everyone.
<Borromini>
First router I put OpenWrt on was an Asus WL-500G :)
<Znevna>
I ran my work network happily on WR841N for years :P
<Znevna>
they even did OpenVPN rofl
<Borromini>
:P

Is it normal for the snapshot images to not include LuCI, and if so, would it be included in a final release image?
<Ansuel>
yes... it's like that from when snapshot images where born
<Ansuel>
only release image have luci
<Ansuel>
if you need luci from snapshot use the asu servers
<Ansuel>
to create your custom image
<[Pokey]>
Sweet, thats fine I just wanted to check that I hadn't buggered anything up when I added my device way-back
<[Pokey]>
I installed it manually with opkg over SSH instead
<[Pokey]>
Excited for the next full release which'll include my device properly
