It was just matter of time since QCA launched theirs
<robimarko>
Its going to be a pain getting the HW though
<\x>
damn, with client products gonna be out this september, wifi 6 might be the uhmm, shortest wifi gen?
<\x>
pandemic happened i guess
<robimarko>
Well, BE seems to be pretty based of AX
<robimarko>
And there still isnt timeline when its going to be ratified
<\x>
good move on banana pi on placing those radios on slots
<\x>
but then why is there the need for a 65W power supply on these
<\x>
its not like those sfp+ slots gonna take so much
<robimarko>
I guess they are accounting for possible PCIe radios
<robimarko>
And everything you can hook up
<\x>
atleast the one installed there is like 12 stream
<\x>
kind of based
<\x>
but why 4 + 5 + 5
<\x>
weird antenna counts but I guess new things are weird
<lu_zero>
robimarko: if you have time to guide me, I still cannot find where/how you set the destination path for kmod packages
<robimarko>
lu_zero: I am really not familiar with it
<lu_zero>
I tried to follow the mk but I got lost =/
<lu_zero>
my testcase is to take the .config for say, bpi-r3, put it on an openwrt tree and build all, the kmod packages aren't placed where the generated feeds.conf would look for
<lu_zero>
who could know?

what's the way to reliably dump a NAND chip before trying install OpenWrt on it?
<stintel>
dd wasn't good, iirc?

nanddump

<stintel>
I have this Ruckus T310c that I want to take to my friends' place to have good Wi-Fi in the garden on his annual BBQ festival
<stintel>
I think I got the DTS sorted last night
<stintel>
how should I figure out qcom,ath10k-calibration-variant ?
<robimarko>
You as the dev decide what it should be set to
<robimarko>
Usually vendor,board
<stintel>
oh I thought it would look for that in some binary file
<robimarko>
Thats the second part
<robimarko>
You gotta package the raw board.bin
<stintel>
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/wireless/qcom,ath10k.txt:- qcom,ath10k-calibration-variant: string to search for in the board-2.bin
<robimarko>
You can just use ath10k-bdencoder to unpack one of the existing BDF-s
<robimarko>
And just modify the board-2.json
<\x>
about that ath10k thing, so i got me that cheap af qca9886 robimarko iirc it supports 2x2 80 and 1x1 160, but it seems 160 isnt there, is this an eeprom thing?
<stintel>
robimarko: but I can probably scout the stock firmware for a board.bin ?
<robimarko>
\x: probably capped in EEPROM
<robimarko>
stintel: It will be in /lib/firmware
<robimarko>
Probably named bdwlan.*
<stintel>
I didn't manage to access that, failed to mount the root ubi partitions of the stock firmware
<stintel>
overlay worked
<\x>
whoever designed this board is a good guy, you can push that 5V either on the pcie slot pins or that VDDA_RF solderhole https://i.imgur.com/o8er2xj.jpeg
<stintel>
robimarko: now it seems to "just work" without com,ath10k-calibration-variant in the DTS. what am I missing out on if I skip the bdencoder step
<robimarko>
stintel: WLAN performance will be crap
<robimarko>
It just works cause its using the default BDF
<\x>
is AC2200 like the highest class ipq40xx has been put in?
<\x>
or is there like an AC3000 device or higher?
<Ansuel>
why i see place for a spi chip on that card
<Ansuel>
what would be the use o.O
<robimarko>
Caldata
<mrkiko>
\x: what device are you referring to when you think about AC2200?
<\x>
asus lyra mesh
<mrkiko>
\x: so I can't say; but some of these devices (gl-b2200) have more than 2 interfaces.
<\x>
and theres that linksys ac2200, i think mr8300?
<mrkiko>
\x: so I wouldn't care much about this in troughput terms

3g/4g/5g users here, is it possible to receive SMSes and display them in LuCI or so?
danitool has quit [Quit: Cubum autem in duos cubos, aut quadratoquadratum in duos quadratoquadratos]
<stintel>
or just get them from command line, it can't be that hard to write some ucode to throw them in a webinterface

This look wrong :-) https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/openwrt.git;a=blob;f=package/kernel/linux/modules/netfilter.mk;h=86a5ffb5c52f2580e58e211c05c668a9800e5e2c;hb=HEAD#l200
<xback>
also the next one below it
<xback>
KCOFNIG_NF_SOCKET & KCOFNIG_NF_TPROXY
<mrkiko>
stintel: if you target a specific well-known modem, the answer is infact that one - assuming the modem exposes SMS messages via AT you can do so using ucode or whatever
<stintel>
mrkiko: thanks
<mrkiko>
stintel: if you target a well-known modem that doesn't offer AT interfaces or for some reasons you can't use them, then it getting little bit more complex but feasible.
<stintel>
I'll have to figure some stuff out - I don't have the specs for the modem yet but I'm asking the potential client to send me some units
<mrkiko>
stintel: doing it in a generic way... definitely not such easy
<stintel>
mrkiko: thanks for the info
<stintel>
appreciated

building a bridge between ubus and d-bus or adding ubus support to ModemManager would be both interesting but pretty complex tasks, I guess

Can someone explain what "Library not found: openwrt/staging_dir/target-aarch64_cortex-a53_musl/root-mediatek/lib/libc.so in path: /usr/lib:/usr/lib/ucode:/usr/lib:/lib" is about?
<dwfreed>
it would help if we had context

I'm compiling openwrt (: Give me some minutes to be more precise what exact configuration is causing this.

yes

then I'm out of ideas

should i add DEVICE_COMPAT_VERSION := 1.1 to my generic.mk
<SlimeyX>
the old 5.15 it worked under has CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG=y
<stintel>
ah you're doing 6.1 ?

no still 5.15.newer

hmmm so this ipq4019 device has 2 rootfs partitions on the NAND. it seems to be booting from the 2nd one and I flashed OpenWrt to the first... how can I toggle this?
<stintel>
looks like setting boot_cnt=0 in u-boot env does something
