gwlim / mpc85xx-lede-patch Goto Github PK

Hi Gwlim,

Just in case you are interested, I found this info:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/lede-dev/2016-June/001145.html

I combined the info in the link above with this change:

--- target/linux/mpc85xx/Makefile (revision 47513)

After that I ran a make defconfig, followed by make menuconfig, selected uClib-ng and unselected using softfloat.

After a compile-run, with some of your older mpc85xx patches included, I loaded the firmware and it's running fine :)

ethtool show
rx-vlan-offload is on
but
tx-vlan-offload is off

Enabling Alignment of IP/TCP Headers does not seem to improvement performance.
Need more testing

Hi @gwlim! Pretty cool work! But this repo is pretty behind the current openwrt trunk and it has a bunch of broken and outdated patches.

It'd be awesome if you could push an update with current patch script, patches and make .config file you're applying on your last WDR4900v1-p1014 build.

I love that build but I need to include some more packages and kmods due to requirements of my ISP's setting (Movistar). These include bird4, kmod-bridge, kmod-ipt-nathelper-rtsp, kmod-nf-conntrack-netlink and omcproxy among others for fullworking WAN, VOIP and IPTV services.

I've been using for a year a v17.01.4 build that I managed to patch with this repo after manually merging #4 and moving both 012 and 060 patches to broken folder. I must say it has worked flawlessly since then!

I've tried the v18.06.1 base release but the performance is crappy and almost all of this patches are broken on v18 and v19. I've successfully ported some to v18.06.1 and the performance increases a bit, but I'm far far away from your last build yet, and, probably, I could never ever get to it! XD

Looking forward the update. Thanks a lot for this amazing work! Greetings and happy holidays!
