svanheule: hi, I'm trying to follow your port mirroring tutorial but my switch doesn't seem to work. Do you know if the ZyXEL GS1900-10HP is supported?
<schmars[m]>
nbd: just had mt7915 crash with short recovery - thanks! :-)

schmars[m]: no extra errors post recovery?
<schmars[m]>
this time no
<schmars[m]>
that trace the other day was the first and only one for me so far
<f00b4r0>
i never had a trace. However I did have a flooding of errors post recovery, even though wifi was "working"
<schmars[m]>
i have no fw_debug_log output at all after recovery, i figured i'd need to enable it again
<f00b4r0>
ah yes. I automatically reenable it after recovery

I did some more digging into this https://forum.openwrt.org/t/ipq8068-support-for-huawei-ap7050de/212519/5 and I think the reason for the odd partition scheme is that it uses Uboot's A/B partition scheme. Which is definitely a first in routers. Does anyone know a similar device already in OpenWRT I can take inspiration from? How would I structure the openwrt image to put in the device
<Svanto24>
through the tftp upgrade interface and such.
<dwfreed>
Many devices of late use an A/B scheme, but exact implementations will vary
Stat_headcrabbed has joined #openwrt-devel
<Habbie>
WRT3200ACM is A/B, i'm pretty sure
<dwfreed>
my nbg6817 is
<dwfreed>
But I believe that is handled by the zyxel loader, not uboot itself
<Svanto24>
Habbie: excellent, this looks well documented. Thank you!
<Svanto24>
dwfreed: Thank you, honestly the bootloader will be a concern later, right now I am trying to learn how to make an openwrt image that works in regards to the partition scheme.
<f00b4r0>
google wifi / onhub are A/B but I think we never got around to implementing it
<Svanto24>
ah I see.
<Svanto24>
yeah it would help a lot if huawei honored the GPL but yeah...
<Svanto24>
I could decompile but idk if that's entirely kosher even if it's GPL code.

When flashing openwrt do we redefine the existing flash structure or is it more that we want to match it?
<dwfreed>
You generally want to preserve it to allow for reverting to OEM firmware
<Svanto24>
Understood. I don't dislike the concept of using an A/B scheme but this is the first time I'd seen it implemented on mere 128mb of flash. We'll see whether that will be an issue but all this device needs to be is a "dumb" AP.
<Svanto24>
Well, now that I think about it, my UAP-AC-LR only has like 16mb so I'm sure it will be fine.

schmars[m], f00b4r0: i have some good news. after running into a regression with the final version of my pcie link2 disable, i figured out a way to not disable the second link
<nbd>
turns out if i write the register that is used to find the matching link before restarting the firmware, the second band still works even after the reset :)
<nbd>
pushed the proper fix now
<f00b4r0>
nbd: cool thanks. Did you see my yesterday copy/pasta of the error message post reset?
<nbd>
yes, i just didn't have time to further look into it
<f00b4r0>
ok
<nbd>
i just tested a manual reset, and i see the same

i'll rebuild later tonight
<nbd>
f00b4r0: i managed to come up with a fix for the issue
<nbd>
it's in mt76.git now
<nbd>
and in openwrt master now
<schmars[m]>
<3 very nice
<schmars[m]>
and i just noticed that these new cudy ax3000 devices combine filogic with mt7915, so it's amazing to have these fixed because i have a pile of ~100 devices that are waiting to be flashed and deployed :-)
<schmars[m]>
i was just assuming they'd use a new wiphy

schmars[m]: is it the wr3000?
<schmars[m]>
ap3000 outdoor and indoor is what i have here
<nbd>
wikidevi says it's mt7981, not mt7915
<schmars[m]>
67 euro for a filogic ap with a good outdoor case was just too good to pass on :)
<schmars[m]>
hm i need to double check
<nbd>
mt7981 is the filogic soc
<nbd>
and it has built-in dual band (concurrent) wifi
<nbd>
(same soc as openwrt one)
<schmars[m]>
the outdoor case for the One might actually happen btw! :)
* stintel
googles ap3000 outdoor
<schmars[m]>
that cudy outdoor case is nice, remove two screws and the antenna rings, then you can pull the board out. much nicer than glue

<stintel>
wow 59.31 EUR
<stintel>
and PoE-PD
<schmars[m]>
yeah that alza deal is +++
<stintel>
I'd been looking at something mediatek based for outdoor, for this price I'll just order two of them
<stintel>
oh it's even 2.5GbE PoE IN
<schmars[m]>
yeah and 2x RP-SMA to sweeten the deal :) i wanna use them as sector antennas as well
<schmars[m]>
(same for the One)
<schmars[m]>
nbd: you're right about mt7981, i just got confused because the vendor firmware loads a blob called t-neptune-main-mt7915-1953-MT7981_MP2111_IMP-20220901174750
<stintel>
ordered
<stintel>
good timing to look at the channel :)
<stintel>
and yeah, I actually wanted some fancy sector antenna to point at my yard
<stintel>
but pretty sure one of these with original antennas properly placed will already cover signal/telegram video calling in most of the yard
<stintel>
I'm going to have some work to do
<stintel>
and some holes to drill :P
<stintel>
I've yet to install PoE IP cameras outdoor, ordered a pair of outdoor speakers today, now these outdoor APs ... :P
<stintel>
oh dear
<schmars[m]>
a drone as a mobile wifi repeater seems needed too
<stintel>
:D
<schmars[m]>
my impression is that mediatek is running circles round qualcomm recently, when looking at openwrt and enduser prices
<Habbie>
you need two drones, they'll have to charge eventually
