**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Feb 04 03:00:52 2020 Feb 04 08:16:58 Hi is there a way to get the new firmware for the wrt.xx routers in to OpenWrt. Feb 04 08:17:04 https://github.com/kaloz/mwlwifi/issues/378 Feb 04 08:17:17 It is not uploaded to the git. Feb 04 08:29:23 Tapper, it's not that easy Feb 04 08:29:46 mainly because we don't know what's been changed / added / removed Feb 04 08:29:48 Yeah I am reading the ddwrt forum about it now. Feb 04 08:30:17 it needs to be done by someone who has access to the firmware code Feb 04 08:30:52 which means that we have to wait and see if / when someone picks up the mwlwifi development from where it stalled Feb 04 08:32:38 some people will end up getting hold of the fermwair and swopping it out on there router after flashing OpenWrt. Feb 04 08:32:55 The blob file I am on about. Feb 04 08:37:04 I will test it out anyway if some uploads it. Feb 04 11:52:58 Tapper, you around? Feb 04 12:34:30 Hauke: ping Feb 04 12:34:59 Hauke: In one of your patches, should mtdconcat be included or not? https://git.openwrt.org/?p=openwrt/staging/xback.git;a=blobdiff;f=target/linux/generic/pending-5.4/403-mtd-hook-mtdsplit-to-Kbuild.patch;h=5d868fffa8bb7c34c68013ad0ba9efc26a3bee18;hp=58ab467ce1ac511061b92881763e7dcec6d40138;hb=f738f93c484bc8884acbf2af31f169e1db842058;hpb=23c5d3ce4a9da568eb54a59da1958cf4551f686a Feb 04 12:36:28 this is regarding patch: 403-mtd-hook-mtdsplit-to-Kbuild.patch Feb 04 12:38:29 xback: the diff the link has is just different patch utilities creating different "headers" for blocks (one cuts off after x characters, the other one doesn't) Feb 04 12:39:19 KanjiMonster: I tought so, which is why I'm double checking it now :-) Feb 04 12:44:47 Hauke: KanjiMonster: yeah, it's a change by the utility :-) Feb 04 12:46:08 IIRC macos' patch doesn't cut off, and gnu patch does Feb 04 12:55:39 I think it's down to .quiltrc - QUILT_REFRESH_ARGS="--no-timestamps --no-index -p ab" Feb 04 13:00:59 fyi, kernel bumps pushed to staging Feb 04 13:05:21 xback: jfyi, I've been successfully running 4.19.101 on ipq40xx and ipq806x for the last ~3 days now, and build-tested 4.19.101 on ath79 and lantiq, as well we 4.14.169 on ath79 (4.19 doesn't work on the tl-wr941nd v2, so I need to build ath79 twice) Feb 04 13:07:17 pkgadd: thanks for the info Feb 04 13:07:35 currently running compile tests for all branches Feb 04 13:08:27 in the meantime, for the interested, I also bumped 5.4 in my staging and add 2 fixes from Robert Marko Feb 04 13:31:30 xback: I have a mediatek port ready Feb 04 13:31:36 and also ramips Feb 04 13:31:46 will mail them over later Feb 04 13:47:03 is there a reason why the generic 5.4 support isn't in master yet? Feb 04 13:51:05 KanjiMonster: there are still a few errors when trying to build x86 with all kmods on Feb 04 13:51:19 as soon as that works, I'll merge it Feb 04 13:51:42 i don't want to push something that's only half-baked Feb 04 13:51:50 at least 1 target should build with all kmods enabled Feb 04 13:58:52 blogic: can you make a branch for_koen or so in your staging? Feb 04 13:59:11 it's easier to handle than mail when I'm not at the office Feb 04 14:40:22 xback: yup, that is what i wanted to do and send you a link Feb 04 15:44:51 blogic: ping - are you reasonably happy with the v2 procd patch ?

Feb 04 17:34:15 * ldir is building 5.4 x86 from xback's tree - for some reason it's rebuilding all the tools - this will take some time Feb 04 17:34:40 ldir: I'm (trying) to build it too here as we speak Feb 04 17:34:46 just got a build error .. Feb 04 17:35:03 xback: does x86 5.4 work on the apu2 or am I about to find out the hard way? Feb 04 17:35:31 ldir: hard way. I was never able to build x86 (with all kmods enabled) Feb 04 17:37:04 oh, this will be fun - kabooooom! Feb 04 17:37:37 great .. build error in broadcom ethernet stuff .. Feb 04 17:37:54 that's for tomorrow Feb 04 17:38:05 * ldir doesn't use that :-) Feb 04 17:39:36 luckily only 1 patch touching it .. should be doable on short-term Feb 04 17:59:55 ldir: it expires 2028 Feb 04 18:00:04 ldir: possibly i wont be able to renew Feb 04 18:00:25 they are trying to pass a law that dual nationalities that are expat will get them revoked Feb 04 18:00:58 funnily my dad has been in .de for 40 years now so they gave him a german passport last year Feb 04 18:01:35 * blogic wonders how many german cockneys there are :-D Feb 04 18:16:14 * ldir hides blogic's dad's chimney brush Feb 04 18:18:03 * ldir ponders Knie bis Mutter braun Feb 04 18:19:12 ldir: kettlesmith's hammer Feb 04 18:20:00 rmilecki: i accidentially merged a brcmfmac patch in a not final stage today Feb 04 18:20:19 i'll be sending it upstream tomorrow together with CSA support and then replace the patch with the backport Feb 04 18:21:32 blogic: are you being caught in that brexit crap as well? Feb 04 18:21:35 sucks :( Feb 04 18:26:40 Borromini: not really Feb 04 18:27:01 they'll prolly just revoke my nationality, nothing serious Feb 04 18:27:13 oh Feb 04 18:27:16 only side effect is that esta for us travel takes longer to get :-) Feb 04 18:27:20 haha Feb 04 18:27:35 i had to apply for one in november... 72h is manageable i'd say :P Feb 04 18:27:55 i just applied for an india tourist visum... if you think the US wants to know a lot, try the Indians lol. Feb 04 18:28:05 Borromini: if you us a uk passport it takes 2 minutes Feb 04 18:28:13 as they have access to all your data already Feb 04 18:28:17 I'd prefer to avoid the US Feb 04 18:28:18 really? Feb 04 18:28:22 Borromini: yup Feb 04 18:28:39 Borromini: biometric passport scan and you are set Feb 04 18:29:01 ldir: so did i, but a work offer came along (paid trip to Washington)... doesn't come along too often Feb 04 18:29:15 ooo exciting Feb 04 18:30:02 blogic: neat, in a way. but mostly scary. belgium has decided to integrate fingerprint into our IDs... we'll see how long it takes until the first data leaks and ID fraud happens. Feb 04 18:30:24 Borromini: :-) Feb 04 18:30:32 that's a really... really bad idea. Feb 04 18:30:54 Redfoxmoon: i found Washington to be very enjoyable. first time in the US though for me. had been to canada before. Feb 04 18:30:55 considering governments are the best at fucking things up Feb 04 18:31:06 Redfoxmoon: it is - but leave it to our elected officials to F up. Feb 04 18:31:26 we had a major data leak in norway, health data exposed openly on the internet Feb 04 18:31:30 lalala Feb 04 18:32:02 :) Feb 04 18:33:02 ah but well, it's not just governments that are good at fucking things up, multinational, multi billion companies manage just fine too Feb 04 18:33:24 still running 60s tech at $DAYJOB (HP 1000/RTE :D) Feb 04 18:33:40 hahaha Feb 04 18:34:25 yeah, they are. and until they get to pay for it, they will. the problem with government is, they make the laws; laws should be sensible to begin with. so no IDs with all biometric data you can think of, for example, would be a start Feb 04 18:34:29 but hey. Feb 04 18:35:16 yup. Feb 04 18:35:30 which is why its important to keep the elected people accountable Feb 04 19:41:36 ath79 gpio and pinmux is a mess. cat /sys/kernel/debug/pinctrl/1804002c.pinmux-pinctrl-single causes kernel panic for me... Feb 04 19:41:49 cat /sys/kernel/debug/pinctrl/1804002c.pinmux-pinctrl-single/pins Feb 04 20:51:20 dangole: :-) Feb 04 21:15:00 dwmw2_gone: Symantec put https://lists.infradead.org onto a blacklist becasue it was hacked Feb 04 21:15:59 and IT blocks it Feb 04 21:16:36 ah this is now Broadcom ;-) Feb 04 21:26:16 xback: ath79 with kernel 5.4 also looks good Feb 04 21:26:22 but I haven'T run tested it yet **** ENDING LOGGING AT Wed Feb 05 03:00:08 2020
